188Driving and operatingGuide lines
The vertical lines represent the
general direction of the vehicle and
the distance between the vertical
lines corresponds to the width of your vehicle without mirrors. Red markers
represent 50 cm from the rear bumper
edge. The first complete horizontal
line represents a distance of about
1m. The distance between each
complete horizontal line represents
1m. The last complete horizontal line
represents 5m.
Deactivation of guide lines

Switching off
The camera is switched off when a
forward gear is engaged.
System limitations The rear view camera may not
operate properly when:
● The surrounding is dark.
● The beam of headlights is shining
directly into the camera lenses.
● During nighttime driving.
● Weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow.
● The camera lenses are blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud, dirt.
Clean the lense, rinse with water,
and wipe with a soft cloth.
● The tailgate will be opened.● The vehicle is towing an electrically connected trailer.
● The vehicle had a rear end accident.
● There are extreme temperature changes.
Lane departure warning The lane departure warning system
observes the lane markings between which the vehicle is driving via a front camera loacted at the top of the
windscreen. The system detects lane
changes and warns the driver in the
event of an unintended lane change via visual and acoustic signals.
Criteria for the detection of an
unintended lane change are:
● No operation of turn signals.
● No brake pedal operation.
● No active accelerator operation or speeding-up.

Driving and operating197Trailer hitch
General information
Only use towing equipment that has
been approved for your vehicle.
Vehicles with natural gas engines
require special towing equipment.
Entrust retrofitting of towing
equipment to a workshop. It may be
necessary to make changes that
affect the cooling system, heat
shields or other equipment.
The bulb outage detection function for trailer brake light cannot detect a
partial bulb outage. E.g. in case of
4x 5 Watt bulbs, the function only
detects lamp outage when only a
single 5 Watt lamp remains or none
remain.
Fitting of towing equipment could
cover the opening of the towing eye.
If this is the case use the coupling ball
bar for towing. Always keep the
coupling ball bar in the vehicle.Driving characteristics and
towing tips
Before attaching a trailer, lubricate
the coupling ball. However, do not do
so if a stabiliser, which acts on the
coupling ball, is being used to reduce snaking movements.
During trailer towing do not exceed a speed of 50 mph. A maximum speed
of 60 mph is only appropriate if an oscillation damper is used and the
permissible gross trailer weight does
not exceed the vehicle's curb weight.
For trailers with low driving stability
and caravan trailers, the use of an
oscillation damper is strongly
recommended.
If the trailer starts snaking, drive more
slowly, do not attempt to correct the
steering and brake sharply if
necessary.
When driving downhill, drive in the
same gear as if driving uphill and
drive at a similar speed.
Adjust tyre pressure to the value
specified for full load 3 247.Trailer towing
Trailer loads
The permissible trailer loads are
vehicle and engine-dependent
maximum values which must not be exceeded. The actual trailer load is
the difference between the actual
gross weight of the trailer and the
actual coupling socket load with the
trailer coupled.
The permissible trailer loads are
specified in the vehicle documents. In general, they are valid for gradients
up to 12%.
The permissible trailer load applies
up to the specified incline and at sea
level. Since engine power decreases
as altitude increases due to the air becoming thinner, therefore reducing
climbing ability, the permissible gross
train weight also decreases by 10%
for every 1000 metres of altitude. The gross train weight does not have to be reduced when driving on roads with
slight inclines (less than 8%, e.g.
motorways).

Accessories and vehicle modifications
We recommend the use of genuine
parts and accessories and factory
approved parts specific for your
vehicle type. We cannot assess or guarantee reliability of other products - even if they have a regulatory or
otherwise granted approval.
Any modification, conversion or other
changes made to standard vehicle
specifications (including, without
limitation, software modifications,
modifications of the electronic control units) may invalidate the warranty
offered by Vauxhall. Furthermore,
such changes may affect driver
assistance systems, may impact fuel
consumption, CO 2 emissions and
other emissions of the vehicle and
cause the vehicle to no longer
conform to the operating permit,
impacting the validity of your vehicle
registration.

212Vehicle careTail lightsTail lights, daytime running lights and
centre high-mounted brake light are
designed as LEDs. In case of failure, have LEDs replaced by a workshop.
Light assembly in the body
1. Open the tailgate then unclip the access cover on the relevant side.
2. Slacken the lamp fixing nut usinga box spanner or socket.
To avoid losing the nut if it drops
into the wing trim, first place a
cloth below it.
3. Manually unscrew and remove the lamp fixing nut.
4. Disengage the retaining clip, while pushing the lamp out
slightly.5. From the outside, carefully withdraw the light assembly from
recess and remove. Take care
that the cable duct remains in
position.
6. Turn the bulb socket anticlockwise and remove it from
the light assembly.

Bulb check
Switch on the ignition, operate and
check all lights.

Vehicle care229● The vehicles must not come intocontact with each other during
the jump starting process.
● Apply the parking brake, transmission in neutral,
automatic transmission in P.
Open the positive terminal protection
caps of both vehicle batteries.
Lead connection order: 1. Connect the red lead to the positive terminal of the booster
battery.
2. Connect the other end of the red lead to the positive terminal of the
discharged battery.
3. Connect the black lead to the negative terminal of the boosterbattery.
4. Connect the other end of the black
lead to a vehicle grounding point
of your vehicle in the engine
compartment.
Route the leads so that they cannot
catch on rotating parts in the engine
compartment.
To start the engine: 1. Start the engine of the vehicle providing the jump.
2. After five minutes, start the other engine. Start attempts should be
made for no longer than
15 seconds at an interval of one
minute.
3. Allow both engines to idle for approx. three minutes with the
leads connected.
4. Switch on electrical consumers (e.g. headlights, heated rear
window) of the vehicle receiving
the jump start.
5. Reverse above sequence exactly when removing leads.Towing
Towing the vehicle
Remove the cap.
The towing eye is stowed with the
vehicle tools 3 216.

230Vehicle care
Screw in the towing eye as far as it will
go until it stops in a horizontal
position.
Attach a tow rope – or better still a tow
rod – to the towing eye.
The towing eye must only be used for towing and not for recovering the
vehicle.
Switch on ignition to release steering
wheel lock and to permit operation of
brake lights, horn and windscreen
wiper.
Switch the selector lever to neutral.
Release the parking brake.
Caution
Drive slowly. Do not drive jerkily.
Excessive tractive force can
damage the vehicle.
When the engine is not running,
considerably more force is needed to
brake and steer.
To prevent the entry of exhaust gases from the towing vehicle, switch on the
air recirculation and close the
windows.
Vehicles with automatic transmission: The vehicle must be towed facing
forwards, not faster than 50 mph nor further than 60 miles. In all other
cases and when the transmission is
defective, the front axle must be
raised off the ground.
Seek the assistance of a workshop. After towing, unscrew the towing eye.
Insert cap with the flange into the
recess and fix cap by pushing.
Towing another vehicle
Remove the cap.
The towing eye is stowed with the
vehicle tools 3 216.
