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

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 care165With engine switched off, turn ignition
key to ON, wait approx. 5 seconds,
and turn key to LOCK to perform
priming operation. Perform this
operation 3 times or more while the
engine is switched off, to avoid air
entering the fuel line.
Check diesel fuel filter at shorter
intervals if the vehicle is subjected to
extreme operating conditions.
If there is water in the diesel fuel filter, control indicator U illuminates in the
instrument cluster 3 90. Drain the
water immediately.
Diesel fuel system bleeding
If the fuel tank has been run dry, the
diesel fuel system must be bled.
Switch on the ignition three times for
15 seconds at a time. Then crank the
engine for a maximum of
40 seconds. If the engine will not start, wait at least 10 seconds before trying
again. If the engine fails to start, seek the assistance of a workshop.Wiper blade replacement

Electrical system
Fuses Data on the replacement fuse must
match the data on the defective fuse.
There are two fuse boxes in the
vehicle:
● in the engine compartment next to the coolant reservoir,
● in the instrument panel, on the left-hand side of the front
passenger seat foot well, or, in
right-hand drive vehicles, on the
left-hand side of the driver's seat
foot well.
Before replacing a fuse, turn off the
respective switch and the ignition.
A blown fuse can be recognized by its melted wire. Do not replace the fuse
until the cause of the fault has been
remedied.
Some functions are protected by
several fuses. Fuses may also be
inserted without existence of a
function.
