132Driving and operatingIf AdBlue is not refilled within a certaindistance, further level warnings are
shown in the Driver Information
Centre, depending on the current
AdBlue level.
Subsequent requests to refill AdBlue
and finally the announcement that an engine restart will be prevented are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
Note
These restrictions are a legal
requirement.At an AdBlue range of 900 km, the following warning messages are
alternately displayed in the Driver
Information Centre:
● AdBlue Low Refill Now
● Engine Restart Prevented in
900 km
Additionally, control indicator Y
flashes continuously.
Engine restarts prevented
Before the prevention of an engine
restart, the following warning
messages are alternately displayed in the Driver Information Centre:
● AdBlue Empty Refill Now
● Engine Will Not Restart
These messages indicate that after
switching off the ignition, an engine
restart will be prohibited.
Additionally, control indicator Y
flashes continuously.
After the prevention of an engine
start, a warning message (e.g. "Refill
AdBlue To Start Vehicle") is displayed
in the Driver Information Centre
reminding the driver that AdBlue level
is insufficient.
To allow the engine to be restarted,
the tank should be filled with at least
10 litres of AdBlue.
High emission warningsIf the exhaust emission rises above a
certain value, warnings similar to the
range warnings as described above
will be displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.
Requests to have the exhaust system checked and finally the
announcement that an engine restart
will be prevented are displayed in the
Driver Information Centre.

The automatic transmission permits
automatic gearshifting (automatic
mode) or manual gearshifting
(manual mode).
Transmission display
The transmission display is shown in
the Driver Information Centre 3 91,
located in the centre of the instrument
cluster.
The mode or selected gear is shown
in the transmission display.

The selector lever is locked in position
P and N and can only be moved when
the ignition is on and the foot brake is applied.
To engage P or R, push the release
button.
Never shift to P or R while the vehicle
is moving.
The engine can only be started with
lever in position P or N. Depress foot
brake or apply electrical parking
brake before starting.
Do not accelerate while engaging a
gear. Never depress the accelerator
pedal and brake pedal at the same
time.
When a gear is engaged, the vehicle
slowly begins to creep when the foot
brake is released.
Engine braking To utilise the engine braking effect,
select a lower gear in good time when
driving downhill - see Manual mode.

Vehicle care163
Batteries do not belong in household
waste. They must be disposed of at
an appropriate recycling collection
point.
Laying up the vehicle for more than
6 weeks can lead to battery
discharge. Disconnect the clamp from the negative terminal of the vehicle
battery.
Ensure the ignition is switched off
before connecting or disconnecting
the vehicle battery.
Retrofitted electrical or electronic
accessories can place an additional
load on the vehicle battery or
discharge the battery. Seek the
assistance of a workshop regarding technical possibilities, such as fitting
a more powerful battery.
Ensure the ignition is switched off
before reconnecting the vehicle
battery. Then perform the following
actions:
1. Set date and time in the information display 3 75.
2. If necessary, activate the power windows and sun roof 3 31, 3 33.
In order to prevent the vehicle battery
from discharging, some consumers
such as the courtesy lights
automatically switch off after a delay.
Charge a disconnected vehicle
battery every 6 weeks.
Vehicle battery discharge protection
3 113.
Replacing the vehicle battery Note
Any deviation from the instructions
given in this paragraph may lead to
a temporary deactivation of the stop-
start system.
When the vehicle battery is being
replaced, please ensure that there
are no open ventilation holes in the
vicinity of the positive terminal. If a
ventilation hole is open in this area, itmust be closed off with a dummy cap, and the ventilation in the vicinity of the
negative terminal must be opened.
Only use batteries that allow the fuse
box to be mounted above the vehicle
battery.
In vehicles with an AGM (Absorptive
Glass Mat) battery, make sure to
have the battery replaced with
another AGM battery.
An AGM battery can be identified by
the label on the battery. We
recommend the use of an original
Opel battery.

Vehicle care183The tyre pressure value displayed in
the Info-Display shows the real tyre
pressure. A cooled down tyre will
show a decreased value, which does
not indicate an air leak.
Tyre pressure monitoring system
The tyre pressure monitoring system
checks the pressure of all four wheels
once per minute when vehicle speed
exceeds a certain limit.Caution
Tyre pressure monitoring system
warns only about low tyre pressure
condition and does not replace
regular tyre maintenance by the
driver.
All wheels must be equipped with pressure sensors and the tyres must
have the prescribed pressure. If
wheels without sensors are mounted,
the tyre pressure monitoring system
is not operational.
Note
In countries where the tyre pressure monitoring system is legally
required, the use of wheels without
pressure sensors will invalidate the
vehicle type approval.
The tyre pressure sensors monitor
the air pressure in the tyres and
transmit tyre pressure readings to a
receiver located in the vehicle.
Each tyre, including the spare, should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the recommended inflation
pressure 3 212.
Low tyre pressure conditionA detected low tyre pressure
condition is indicated by control
indicator w 3 88.
If w illuminates, stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tyres as
recommended 3 212.
When the system detects a
malfunction, w will flash for approx.
one minute and then remain
continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.
When w is illuminated, the system
may not be able to detect or signal low tyre pressure as intended.
If w illuminates at lower temperatures
and extinguishes after driving, this
could be an indicator for approaching
a low tyre pressure condition. Check
tyre pressure.
