2019 OPEL AMPERA E height

182Driving and operatingThe system alerts visually in each
exterior mirror when detecting rapidly
approaching vehicles from behind.
The radar distance sensors are
located in the rear bumper.9 Warning
Lane change alert does not
replace driver vision.
Before changing a lane, always
check all mirrors, look over the
shoulder and use the turn light.
When the system detects an
approaching vehicle from behind
which drives considerably faster, the
yellow warning symbol F will
illuminate in the relevant exterior mirror. If the driver then activates the
turn light, the warning symbol F
starts flashing yellow as a warning not to change lanes.
When the vehicle is started, both
exterior mirror displays will briefly
come on to indicate that the system is
operating.
Detection zones
The system sensors cover a zone of
approx. 3.5 m parallel on both vehicle
sides and approx. 3 m rearwards on
side blind zone assistant (A) and
approx. 70 m rearwards on lane
change alert (B) on parallel lanes.
The zones start at each exterior
mirror. The height of the zone is
approx. between 0.5 m and 2 m off the ground.
Deactivation Activation or deactivation of the lane
change alert can be set in the vehicle
personalisation menu in the Info
Display.

208Driving and operatingCharge cord mounting
instructions
Choose an appropriate, solid location
for mounting the charge cord. The
appropriate height for mounting the
charge cord is 91 cm from the floor.
Space the holes 18.7 cm apart.
Install the mounting screws leaving
the head of the screws 5 mm from the surface.
Securely mount the charge cord on to
the screws.
Connect the wall plug to the electrical
outlet.
Connect the vehicle plug to the
charge port.
Electrical requirementsCaution
Do not use portable or stationary
backup generating equipment to charge the vehicle. This may
cause damage to the vehicle's
charging system. Only charge the
vehicle from utility supplied power.
Charge limit selection 3 196.
Reduced limit mode allows a non-
dedicated circuit to be used but
increases the charging time.
This vehicle is capable of being
charged with standard vehicle
charging equipment complying with
one or more of the following
standards:
● SAE J1772
● SAE J2847–2
● IEC 61851-1
● IEC 61851-22
● IEC 61851-23
● IEC 61851-24
● IEC 62196-1
● IEC 62196-2
● IEC 62196-3
● ISO 15118
Ensure that all local electrical code / standards are being met for a 10 A
continuous load. Always follow the
charging equipment installation
instructions. Contact a workshop for
more information.9 Warning
If the capacity of the electrical
circuit or AC socket is not known,
only use the lowest charge level
until the circuit capacity has been
inspected by a qualified
electrician. Using a charge level
that exceeds either the electrical
circuit or the AC outlet capacity
may start a fire or damage the
electrical circuit.

Vehicle care2133. Release the bonnet support fromits retainer above the radiator
support and place it securely into
the slotted retainer in the bonnet.
Closing Before closing the bonnet, press the
support into the holder.
Lower the bonnet and let it fall into the
latch from a low height (20-25 cm).
Check that the bonnet is engaged.Caution
Do not press the bonnet into the
latch to avoid dents.
Cooling system
The vehicle has three different
cooling systems.
Regularly check the coolant level of
the respective cooling systems and
have the cause of a possible coolant
loss remedied by a workshop.
Caution
Make sure that you never run the
vehicle with insufficient coolant.
A low coolant level can cause
damage to the vehicle.
Heater cooling system
The coolant reservoir is located in the engine compartment.
The coolant provides freeze
protection down to approx. -28 °C.
Caution
Only use approved antifreeze.
If the engine cooling system is cold,
the coolant level should be above the
filling line mark. Top up if the level is
low.
9 Warning
Allow the engine to cool before
opening the cap. Carefully open
the cap, relieving the pressure
slowly.
To top up use a 1:1 mixture of
approved coolant concentrate mixed
with tap water. Install the cap tightly.

Vehicle care231The following applies to tyres fitted
opposing the rolling direction:
● Driveability may be affected.● Do not drive faster than 80 km/h.
● Drive particularly carefully on wet
and snow-covered road
surfaces.
Winter tyres
Winter tyres improve driving safety at temperatures below 7 °C and shouldtherefore be fitted on all wheels.
All tyre sizes are permitted as winter
tyres 3 253.
In accordance with country-specific
regulations, affix the speed sticker in
the driver's field of view.

Choose a tyre appropriate for the
maximum speed of your vehicle.
The maximum speed is achievable at kerb weight with driver (75 kg) plus
125 kg payload. Optional equipment
could reduce the maximum speed of
the vehicle.
Performance 3 251.
Tyre pressure
Check the pressure of cold tyres at
least every 14 days and before any
long journey.
This also applies to vehicles with tyre pressure monitoring system.
Tyre pressure 3 253.
The tyre pressure information label on the left door frame indicates the
original equipment tyres and the
correspondent tyre pressures.
The tyre pressure data refers to cold
tyres. It applies to summer and winter
tyres.
The ECO tyre pressure serves to
achieve the smallest amount of
energy consumption possible.
Incorrect tyre pressures will impair
safety, vehicle handling, comfort and efficiency and will increase tyre wear.
Tyre pressures differ depending on
various options.
