98Instruments and controlsThe recommended grip areas of the
steering wheel are heated quicker
and to a higher temperature than the
other areas.
Heating is operational when the
engine is running and during an
Autostop.

104Instruments and controlsTachometer
Displays the engine speed.
Drive in a low engine speed range for each gear as much as possible.
Caution
If the needle is in the red warning
zone, the maximum permitted
engine speed is exceeded. Engine at risk.
Fuel gauge
Displays the fuel level or gas content
(LPG or CNG) in the tank depending
on the operation mode.
Number of LEDs displayed shows the level in the respective fuel tank. 8
LEDs means fuel tank is full.
During gas operation, the level in the gas tank is displayed.
Low fuel indication
One remaining LED illuminating white indicates that the fuel level is low.
If the LED changes to red and Y
illuminates yellow, refuel the tank soon.
If the LED illuminates red and Y
flashes yellow, refuel immediately.
Never run the fuel tank dry.
The arrow indicates the vehicle side
where the fuel filler flap is located.
Because of the fuel remaining in the
tank, the top-up quantity may be less
than the specified tank capacity.
During gas operation, the system automatically switches over to petrol
operation when gas tanks are empty
3 105.

Instruments and controls105Fuel selector
Natural gas operation, CNG
Pressing Y switches between petrol
and natural gas operation. Switching
is not possible at high loads (e.g.
powerful acceleration, driving at full
throttle). The LED status shows the
current operating mode.
1 off:natural gas
operation1 illumi‐
nates:petrol operation1 flashes:no switching is
possible, one type of
fuel is emptyAs soon as the natural gas tank is
empty, petrol operation is
automatically engaged until the
ignition is switched off.
If the natural gas tank is not refuelled, the system must be manually
switched to petrol operation before
the engine is restarted. This will
prevent damage to the catalytic
converter (overheating caused by
irregular fuel supply).
If the selector switch is operated
several times within a short time, a
switchover inhibitor is activated. The
engine remains in the current
operating mode. The inhibitor
remains active until the ignition is
switched off.
A slight loss of power and torque can
be expected during petrol operation.
You must therefore adapt your driving style (e.g. during overtaking
manoeuvres) and high vehicle loads
(e.g. towing loads) accordingly.
Every six months run the petrol tank
down until control indicator Y
illuminates, then refuel. This isnecessary to maintain fuel quality as
well as system function necessary for
petrol operation.
Fill the tank completely at regular
intervals to prevent corrosion in the
tank.
Note
Natural gas tanks (Type IV) consist
of lightweight fibre reinforced plastic.
After a collision behind the front
seats or overrunning of objects
which impact the underbody of the vehicle the natural gas tanks must
be checked. We recommend an
Opel Repairer authorised for
servicing natural gas vehicles.
Fuel for natural gas operation 3 248.

106Instruments and controlsLiquid gas operation, LPG
Pressing LPG switches between
petrol and liquid gas operation as
soon as the required parameters (coolant temperature, gas
temperature and minimum engine
speed) have been reached. The
requirements are usually fulfilled after
approximately 60 seconds
(depending on exterior temperature)
and the first firm press on the
accelerator. The status LED shows
the current operating mode.

conditions are fulfilled.1 illumi‐

times and
extin‐
guishes:liquid gas tank is
empty or failure in
liquid gas system. A
message is displayed
in the Driver
Information Centre.
If the fuel tank is empty, the engine
will not start.
The selected fuel mode is stored and
reactivated at the next ignition cycle if
conditions allow.
As soon as the liquid gas tank is
empty, petrol operation is
automatically engaged until the
ignition is switched off.
When switching automatically
between petrol or gas operation, a
brief delay of engine tractive power
may be noticeable.
Every six months, run the petrol tank down until control indicator I
illuminates, then refuel. This helps
maintain fuel quality and system
function for petrol operation.
Fill the tank completely at regular intervals to prevent corrosion in the
tank.
Faults and remedies
If gas mode is not possible, check the following:
● Is there enough liquid gas present?
● Is there enough petrol present for
starting?
Due to extreme temperatures in
combination with the gas
composition, it may take slightly
longer before the system switches
from petrol to gas mode.
In extreme situations, the system may also switch back to petrol mode if the
minimum requirements are not
fulfilled. If conditions allow, it may be
possible to manually switch back to
liquid gas operation.

Instruments and controls107Seek the assistance of a workshop in
the event of all other faults.Caution
Repairs and adjustments may only be made by trained specialists in
order to maintain the safety and
warranty on the LPG system.
Liquid gas is given a particular odour
(odorised) so that any leaks can be
detected easily.
9 Warning
If you smell gas in the vehicle or in
the immediate vicinity, switch to petrol mode immediately. No
smoking. No naked flames or
ignition sources.
If the gas odour persists, do not start
the engine. Have the cause of the
fault remedied by a workshop.
When using underground car parks,
follow the instructions of the operator
and local laws.
Note
In the event of an accident, switch off
the ignition and lights.

Engine coolant temperature gauge
Number of LEDs displayed shows the coolant temperature.

If engine coolant temperature is
too high, stop vehicle, switch off
engine. Danger to engine. Check
coolant level.
Service display
The engine oil life system informs
when to change the engine oil and
filter. Based on driving conditions, the interval at which an engine oil and
filter change will be indicated can vary
considerably.

108Instruments and controls
The remaining oil life duration menu
is displayed in the Driver Information
Centre 3 117.
Select Vehicle Information
Menu ? by pressing MENU on the
turn signal lever. Turn the adjuster wheel to select Remaining Oil Life .
Remaining oil life duration is indicated
in percentage.
ResetPress SET/CLR on turn signal lever
for several seconds to reset. The
ignition must be switched on but
engine not running.
The system must be reset every time
the engine oil is changed to ensure
proper functionality. Seek the
assistance of a workshop.
Next service When the system has calculated that
engine oil life has been diminished,
Change Engine Oil Soon appears in
the Driver Information Centre. Have
engine oil and filter changed by a
workshop within one week or
500 km (whichever occurs first).
