LIFTING AND TOWING
08-2
Raising the front of a vehicle
Position the cup of the hydraulic arm under the
centre of the front body crossmember assembly.
Use jack to raise front road wheels to enable safety
stands to be installed under the front end of each
longitudinal member.
Carefully lower jack until vehicle sits securely on
safety stands.
Before working on the underside of a vehicle re-
check the stability of the vehicle on the stands.
Use the reverse procedure when removing a vehicle
from stands.
NOTE: For some repair operations it may be
necessary to use a jack to support the engine under
the sump. In this case, a block of wood should be
used on the jack to protect the sump.
Raising the rear of a vehicle
Position cup of hydraulic arm under the centre of the
rear subframe crossmember at the position
identified by the embossed arrows.
Use jack to raise rear road wheels to enable safety
stands to be installed under the rear ends of the
body longitudinal members.
Carefully lower jack until vehicle sits securely on
safety stands.
Before working on the underside of a vehicle, re-
check the stability of the vehicle on the stands.
Use the reverse procedure when removing a vehicle
from stands.
Wheel-free lift
Locate the lifting pads under the ends of the body
longitudinal members. Raise the ramp to support the
weight of the vehicle, ensure the vehicle is secure on
the lifting pads, then raise the ramp to the required
height.
Towing
General
The vehicle has permanent four wheel drive. The
following instructions must be adhered to:
Towing the vehicle on all four wheels with driver
operating steering and brakes
lTurn ignition key to position '1' to release
steering lock and then to position 'II' to enable
the brake lights, wipers and direction indicators
to be operated, if necessary.
l Select neutral in gearbox and ensure HDC (hill
descent control) is deselected.
lSecure tow rope, chain or cable to towing eye.
lRelease the parking brake.
CAUTION: The brake servo and power assisted
steering system will not be functional without the
engine running. Greater pedal pressure will be
required to apply the brakes and the steering
system will require greater effort to turn the front
road wheels. The vehicle tow connection should
only be used under normal road conditions,
'snatch' recovery should be avoided.
Suspended tow by breakdown vehicle
Mark propeller shaft drive flanges and mating flanges
with identification lines to enable the propeller shaft
to be refitted in its original position.
Remove the propeller shaft fixings then remove the
shaft from the vehicle.
CAUTION: To prevent vehicle damage, rear
propeller shaft MUST BE removed.

If the front of the vehicle is to be trailed, turn ignition
key to position 'I' to release steering lock.
WARNING: Do not turn the starter switch to
position '0' or remove the ignition key while the
vehicle is being towed.
CAUTION: If it is considered unsafe to turn the
starter switch to position '1' due to accident
damage or an electrical fault; disconnect the
battery before turning the ignition switch.
CAUTION: The steering wheel and/or linkage
must be secured in a straight ahead position. DO
NOT use the steering lock mechanism for this
purpose.
CAUTION: Under no circumstances should the
vehicle be towed or recovered by means of
lashing to the rear subframe. Serious damage to
the subframe and body could result.
CAUTION: Only use the rear towing eye for
towing another vehicle.
Towing eyes
The towing eyes at the front and rear of the vehicle
are designed for vehicle recovery purposes only and
must not be used to tow a trailer or caravan.
Front and rear towing eyes
A single towing eye is provided in the front spoiler.
Only use when the vehicle is to be towed with all four
wheels on the ground.
A single towing eye is provided in the rear RH spoiler.
Only use when towing another vehicle.Transporting the vehicle by trailer
Lashing rings are provided at the front and rear of the
body to facilitate the securing of the vehicle to a
trailer or other means of transportation.
CAUTION: Underbody components must not be
used as lashing points. The lashing rings must
not be used for towing.
Install the vehicle on trailer and apply the parking
brake. Select neutral.

Fluids
Fuel
Always use the following recommended fuels:
Petrol engines
Use unleaded petrol with a minimum octane rating of
95 RON to ENN 228 specification.
In an emergency (and only if the correct fuel is
unavailable), lower octane rated fuel can be used for
very limited periods of moderate, low speed
motoring, provided engine 'knocking' does not occur.
Fuels of 90 RON is used in certain markets; 90 RON
fuel can be used regularly ONLY if the engine has
been tuned specifically to suit low octane fuel.
Certain markets use fuel containing a 23% Ethanol
additive.
K1.8 and KV6 engines are also available for use with
a low octane leaded fuel specification in some
markets.
Diesel engines
Use a good quality diesel fuel or automotive gas oil
(AGO) conforming to EN 590 specification.
It is important that the sulphur content of diesel fuel
does not exceed 0.3%.
Ensure the fuel filter element is changed at the
recommended intervals.

+ MAINTENANCE, MAINTENANCE, Fuel
Filter - Diesel.
Brake Fluid
Use only DOT 4 brake fluid. DO NOT use brake fluid
of a different specification.
PAS fluid
Use Texaco 9226 fluid.Anti-freeze solutions
The overall anti-freeze concentration should not fall,
by volume, below 50% to ensure that the anti-
corrosion properties of the coolant are maintained.
Anti-freeze concentrations greater than 60% are not
recommended as cooling efficiency will be impaired.
Use Havoline Extended Life Coolant (XLC), or any
ethylene glycol based anti-freeze (containing no
methanol) with only Organic Acid Technology (OAT)
corrosion inhibitors, to protect the cooling system.
CAUTION: No other anti-freeze should be used
with Havoline Extended Life Coolant.
The cooling system should be drained, flushed and
refilled with the correct amount of anti-freeze
solution at the intervals given on the Service
Maintenance Check Sheet.
After filling with anti-freeze solution, attach a warning
label to a prominent position on the vehicle stating
the type of anti-freeze contained in the cooling
system to ensure that the correct type is used for
topping-up.
The following recommended quantities of anti-freeze
will provide frost protection to -36 °C (-33 °F):
Engine – Td4
Engine – K1.8
Engine – KV6

Lubrication
The engine and other lubricating systems are filled
with high- performance lubricants giving prolonged
life.
CAUTION: Always use a high quality oil of the
correct viscosity range in the engine. The use of
oil of the incorrect specification can lead to high
oil and fuel consumption and ultimately to
damaged components.
Oil to the correct specification contains additives
which disperse the corrosive acids formed by
combustion and prevent the formation of sludge
which can block the oil ways. Additional oil additives
should not be used.
Always adhere to the recommended servicing
intervals.
Engine oil
Engine oil viscosity / temperature ranges are
indicated in the following table:
a0W/30; 5W/30
b0W/40, 50, 60; 5W/40, 50, 60
c10W/30
d10W/40, 50, 60
Engine oil – Td4 engine
Use 0W/30 or 5W/40, 50, 10W/30, 40, 60 oil meeting
ACEA A3/B3 specifications, and having a viscosity
band recommended for the temperature range of
your locality. Where oils to these European
specifications are not available, well known brands of
oils meeting API SH quality should be used.Engine oil – K1.8 engine
Use a 10W/40 oil meeting specification ACEA A2 or
A3.
Engine oil – KV6 engine – Non NAS models
Use a 10W/40 oil meeting specification ACEA A2 or
A3.
Engine oil – KV6 engine - NAS models
Use a 5W/40 fully synthetic oil meeting specification
ACEA A3. Where oils to these European
specifications are not available, well known brands of
oils meeting API SH quality should be used.
Gearbox oil
Use of gearbox oils other than those specified may
result in serious damage to the gearbox.
Manual Gearbox – PG1 and Getrag
Use OPEL B 0400063 for refill or topping-up.
Automatic Gearbox – JATCO
Use Texaco N402 fluid for refill or topping-up.
