2018 OPEL VIVARO B remote control

122Climate controlSet the fan < to regulate the amount
of cooled air to be flown into the rear
passenger compartment.
Auxiliary heater Coolant heater
The engine-independent, fuel-
powered coolant heater provides
rapid heating of the engine coolant to
enable heating of the vehicle interior
without the engine running.9 Warning
Do not operate the system when
refuelling, when dust or
combustible vapours are present
or in enclosed spaces (e.g.
garage).
Before starting or programming the
system to start, turn the vehicle's
climate control system to heat, set the
air distribution to V and turn the fan
on.
Switch off when not required. Heating stops automatically after the
programmed runtime. It will also
cease to operate if the vehicle fuel
level drops too low.
During operation, power from the
vehicle battery is used. The driving
time should therefore be at least as
long as the heating time. For short
journey times, check the vehicle
battery regularly and recharge if
necessary.
To ensure efficient performance,
briefly operate the auxiliary heater
once a month.

9 Warning
When refuelling, switch off the
remote control unit as well as the
heater!
The remote control has a maximum
range of 1000 metres. The range may
be reduced due to environmental
conditions and as the battery
becomes weaker.

Teach remote control (Type B)
Up to four additional remote control
units may also be configured. During
additional teaching processes, the
oldest transmitter will be deleted each
time.
Remove the heater fuse for
five seconds, then refit the fuse.
Within two - six seconds press OFF
for one second. Teaching is
completed.
If the remote has not been used for a long period, press the OFF button six
times at intervals of two seconds,
then press and hold for another
two seconds, then wait two minutes.
Manual control
Depending on version, the auxiliary
heater can also be switched on for the
last duration time or the default
duration 30 minutes, or cut-off
immediately, using the button on the
lower part of the instrument panel,
beside the steering wheel.
The LED in the button confirms
operation.
Battery replacement
Replace the battery when the range
of the remote control is reduced or when the battery charge symbol
flashes.

126Climate controlNote
The remote control system features
a temperature sensor which
calculates the runtime according to
the ambient temperature and the
desired heating level (ECO or
HIGH). The system starts
automatically between five and
60 minutes prior to the programmed
departure time.

Driving and operating135Turbo engine warm-upUpon start-up, engine available
torque may be limited for a short time,
especially when the engine
temperature is cold. The limitation is
to allow the lubrication system to fully protect the engine.
Idle speed control
To increase the idle speed, press the switch. After a few seconds the
function will be activated.
The function will be deactivated
when:
● The clutch pedal is depressed.
● The accelerator pedal is depressed.
● Vehicle speed is above 0 km/h. ● Control indicator F, W or C
illuminate in the instrument
cluster.
To increase or decrease the fast idle
speed rate, consult a workshop.
Note
When the fast idle function is
activated, the stop-start system is
automatically deactivated.
Stop-start system 3 136.
Vehicle shutdown
Fuel cut-off system
If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the fuel
system is cut-off and must be reset
after refuelling. A corresponding
warning message may also appear in the Driver Information Centre 3 102.9
Danger
If you can smell fuel in the vehicle,
or a fuel leak is present, have thecause of this remedied
immediately by a workshop. Do
not reset the fuel cut-off system, to avoid the risk of fire.
Resetting with remote control
key / manual key
To reset the fuel cut-off system and
enable the vehicle to be driven:
1. Turn the ignition key to position 2
3 132.
2. Wait a few minutes to allow the fuel system to be reset.
3. Turn key to position 3 to start the
engine.

Parking9 Warning
● Do not park the vehicle on an
easily ignitable surface. The
high temperature of the
exhaust system could ignite the
surface.
● Always apply parking brake without pressing release
button. Apply as firmly as
possible on a downhill slope or
uphill slope. Depress brake
pedal at the same time to
reduce operating force.
● Switch off the engine.
● If the vehicle is on a level surface or uphill slope, engage
first gear. On an uphill slope,
turn the front wheels away from
the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill
slope, engage reverse gear.
Turn the front wheels towards the kerb.
● Close the windows.
● Remove the ignition key from the ignition switch. Turn the
steering wheel until the
steering wheel lock is felt to
engage.
● Lock the vehicle by pressing e on
the remote control 3 26.

after the engine has been
switched off 3 166.
Caution
After running at high engine
speeds or with high engine loads,
operate the engine briefly at a low load or run in neutral for approx.30 seconds before switching off, in
order to protect the turbocharger.

an airbag, activation of the
stability regulation system)

These data are exclusively technical
and help identifying and correcting
errors as well as optimising vehicle
functions.
Motion profiles indicating travelled
routes cannot be created with these
data.
If services are used (e.g. repair
works, service processes, warranty cases, quality assurance),
employees of the service network
(manufacturer included) are able to
read out this technical information
from the event and error data storage
modules applying special diagnostic
devices. If required, you will receive
further information at these
workshops. After an error has been
corrected, the data are deleted from
the error storage module or they are
constantly overwritten.When using the vehicle, situations
may occur in which these technical
data related to other information
(accident report, damages on the
vehicle, witness statements etc.) may be associated with a specific person -possibly, with the assistance of an
expert.
Additional functions contractually
agreed upon with the client (e.g.
vehicle location in emergency cases)
allow the transmission of particular
vehicle data from the vehicle.
Radio Frequency
Identification (RFID)
RFID technology is used in some
vehicles for functions such as tyre
pressure monitoring and ignition
system security. It is also used in
connection with conveniences such
as radio remote controls for door
locking/unlocking and starting, and in-
vehicle transmitters for garage door
openers. RFID technology in Opel
vehicles does not use or record
personal information or link with any
other Opel system containing
personal information.
