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 Opel. 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.

After having changed defective fuses,
close the fuse box cover and lock it.
If the fuse box cover is not closed
correctly, malfunction may occur.

Vehicle care181After adjusting tyre pressure initialise
system to extinguish the control
indicator and restart system.
If the failure continues to be
displayed, contact a workshop. The
system is inoperable when ABS or
ESC has a malfunction or a
temporary spare wheel is used. Once
the tyre has been refitted, check the
tyre pressure with cold tyres and
initialise the system.Caution
Deflation detection system warns
just about low tyre pressure
condition and does not replace
regular tyre maintenance by the
driver.
System initialisation
After tyre pressure correction or
wheel change, the system must be
initialised to learn new circumference
reference values:
1. Always ensure that all four tyres have correct tyre pressure3 210.
2. Apply parking brake. 3. Initialise the system via the Info Display 3 75.
4. Reset is confirmed by pop-up indication.
After initialisation system
automatically calibrates to new tyre
pressures during driving. After longer
drive the system will adopt and
monitor new pressures.
Always check tyre pressure with cold
tyres.
System has to be reinitialised when: ● Tyre pressure has been changed
● Load condition has been changed
● Wheels have been swapped or exchanged
The system will not warn
instantaneously on a tyre blow out or
a rapid deflation. This is due to
required calculation time.Tread depth
Check tread depth at regular
intervals.
Tyres should be replaced for safety
reasons at a tread depth of 2-3 mm
(4 mm for winter tyres).
For safety reasons, it is
recommended that the tread depth of
the tyres on one axle should not vary
by more than 2 mm.
The legally permissible minimum
tread depth (1.6 mm) has been
reached when the tread has worn
down as far as one of the tread wear

186Vehicle careReplace the used sealant bottle.Dispose of the bottle as prescribed
by applicable laws.
The compressor and sealant can be used from approx. -30 °C.
Wheel changing
Make the following preparations and
observe the following information:
● Park the vehicle on a level, firm and non-skid surface. The front
wheels must be in the straight- ahead position.
● If necessary, place a chock under
the wheel diagonally opposite the
wheel to be changed.
● Apply the parking brake and engage first gear, reverse gear orP .
● If the ground on which the vehicle
is standing is soft, a solid board
(max. 1 cm thick) should be
placed under the jack.
● Take heavy objects out of the vehicle before jacking up.
● No people or animals may be in the vehicle when it is jacked-up.● Never crawl under a jacked-upvehicle.
● Do not start the vehicle when it is
raised on the jack.
● Before screwing in the wheel bolts, clean them.9Warning
Do not grease wheel bolts.
Tightening torques
Caution
If the vehicle is equipped with alloy
wheels, tighten the wheel bolts
manually at least for the first five
turns.
There are two different types of
wheels with two different bolts and tightening torques.
Tightening torque for alloy wheels is
115 Nm.
Tightening torque for steel wheels:
● 15" steel wheel bolts should been
tightened with 100 Nm.
● 16" steel wheel bolts should been
tightened with 115 Nm.
Use the correct wheel bolts for the
respective wheels.
Jacking positions
The jacking positions shown refer to
the use of lifting arms and accessory
jacks used for changing winter /
summer tyres.

Vehicle care187
Rear arm position of the lifting
platform centrically under the relevant vehicle jacking point.
Front arm position of the lifting
platform centrically under the relevant vehicle jacking point.
Spare wheel The spare wheel can be classified as
a temporary spare wheel depending
on the size compared to the other
mounted wheels and country
regulations. In this case a permissible maximum speed applies, even
though no label at the spare wheel
indicates this.
Only mount one temporary spare
wheel. Do not drive faster than
80 km/h. Take curves slowly. Do not
use for a long period of time.Caution
The use of a spare wheel that is smaller than the other wheels or in combination with winter tyres
could affect driveability. Have the defective tyre replaced as soon as
possible.
The spare wheel is located in the load
compartment beneath the floor
covering.
To remove: 1. Open the floor cover 3 51.
2. The temporary spare wheel is secured with a wing nut. Unscrew
nut and take out the spare wheel.
3. When, after a wheel change, no wheel is placed in the spare wheelwell, tighten the wing nut and
close floor cover.
4. After wheel change back to full size wheel, place the temporary
spare wheel outside up in the well
and secure with the wing nut.

188Vehicle careOnly mount one temporary spare
wheel. The permissible maximum
speed on the label on the temporary
spare wheel is only valid for the
factory-fitted tyre size.
Fitting the spare wheel Make the following preparations and
observe the following information:
● Park the vehicle on a level, firm and non-skid surface. The front
wheels must be in the straight-
ahead position.
● If necessary, place a chock under
the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to be changed.
● Apply the parking brake and engage first gear, reverse gear or
P .
● Remove the spare wheel.
● Never change more than one wheel at once.
● Use the jack only to change wheels in case of puncture, not
for seasonal winter or summer
tyre change.
● The jack is maintenance-free.● If the ground on which the vehicle
is standing is soft, a solid board
(max. 1 cm thick) should be
placed under the jack.
● Take heavy objects out of the vehicle before jacking up.
● No people or animals may be in the vehicle when it is jacked-up.
● Never crawl under a jacked-up vehicle.
● Do not start the vehicle when it is
raised on the jack.
● Before screwing in the wheel bolts, clean them.9Warning
Do not grease wheel bolts.
9Warning
Ensure to use always the correct
wheel bolts if changing the
wheels. When installing the spare
wheel, the bolts for alloy wheels can also be used.
● Note that the spare wheel is secured by the conical contact ofeach bolt if the wheel bolts for the
alloy wheels are used. In this
case, the washers do not come
into contact with the spare wheel.
1. Disengage wheel bolt caps with the wheel bolt cover remover.
Vehicle tools 3 178.
Steel wheels with cover: Pull off
the wheel cover.
Alloy wheels: Disengage wheel
bolt caps with the wheel bolt cover remover.

clear of the ground.
5. Unscrew the wheel nuts.
6. Change the wheel.
7. Screw on the wheel nuts.
8. Lower the vehicle and remove jack.
9. Install the wheel wrench ensuring that it is located securely and
tighten each bolt in a crosswise
sequence.
Tightening torque for 15" is
100 Nm and for 16" is 115 Nm.
If the vehicle is equipped with
alloy wheels, note that the wheel
bolts can also be used for the steel spare wheel. In this case, the
spare wheel is secured by the
conical contact of each bolt.
10. Vehicles with wheel cover: Align the valve hole in the wheel cover
with the tyre valve before
installing.
Install wheel nut caps.11. Stow the replaced wheel, the vehicle tools and the adapter forthe locking wheel nuts 3 178.
12. Check the tyre pressure of the installed tyre and the wheel nut
torque as soon as possible.
Stowing a damaged full size
wheel in the load compartment
The damaged full size wheel can be
stowed in the spare wheel well. To
secure the wheel:1. Remove centre cap with the brand
emblem by pushing from the
inside.
2. Position the wheel outside down in the wheel well.
3. Secure the defective wheel with the wing nut.
4. Depending on the tyre size, the floor cover can be placed on the
projecting wheel.

Customer information217Vehicle data recording
and privacy
Event data recorders Electronic control units are installed in
your vehicle. Control units process
data which is received by vehicle
sensors, for example, or which they
generate themselves or exchange
amongst themselves. Some control
units are necessary for the safe
functioning of your vehicle, others
assist you while you drive (driver
assistance systems), while others
provide comfort or infotainment
functions.
The following contains general
information about data processing in
the vehicle. You will find additional
information as to which specific data
is uploaded, stored and passed on to third parties and for what purpose in
your vehicle under the key word Data Protection closely linked to the
references for the affected functional
characteristics in the relevant owner's
manual or in the general terms of
sale. These are also available online.Operating data in the vehicle
Control units process data for
operation of the vehicle.
This data includes, for example: ● vehicle status information (e.g. speed, movement delay, lateral
acceleration, wheel rotation rate,
"seat belts fastened" display)
● ambient conditions (e.g. temperature, rain sensor,
distance sensor)
As a rule such data is transient and is not stored for longer than an
operational cycle, and only processed
on board the vehicle itself. Often
control units include data storage
(including the vehicle key). This is
used to allow information to be
documented temporarily or
permanently on vehicle condition,
component stress, maintenance
requirements and technical events
and errors.Depending on technical equipment
levels, the data stored is as follows:
● system component operating states (e.g. fill level, tyre
pressure, battery status)
● faults and defects in important system components (e.g. lights,
brakes)
● system reactions in special driving situations (e.g. triggeringof an airbag, actuation of the
stability control systems)
● information on events damaging the vehicle
● for electric vehicles the amount of
charge in the high-voltage
battery, estimated range
In special cases (e.g. if the vehicle
has detected a malfunction), it may be
necessary to save data that would
otherwise just be volatile.
When you use services (e.g. repairs,
maintenance), the operating data
saved can be read together with the
vehicle identification number and
used where necessary. Staff working
for the service network ( e.g. garages,
manufacturers) or third parties (e.g.
