Heating and ventilation system,
air conditioning system
3
Ventilation, heating and cooling 3 are
combined into one unit that is designed to
provide comfort regardless of the season,
weather or outside temperature.
When cooling 3 is activated, the air is
cooled and dried. The heating unit heats the air as required in
all operating modes depending on the
position of the temperature switch. The air
supply can be adjusted to suit
requirements by means of the fan.

Manual air recirculation mode
The air recirculation system prevents the
entry of outside air and the air in the
passenger compartment is circulated.
Operated with the 4 button. To deactivate manual
air recirculation:
Press button 4 again. The control
indicator in the butt on will go out.
Auxiliary heater Depending on outside temperature and
engine temperature, the passenger
compartment of vehicles with Quickheat 3
electric auxiliary heating is warmed up
more quickly.
Diesel-engined vehicles have a fuel-
powered auxiliary heater 3.

Warning
The exchange of fresh air is reduced in
air circulation mode. The quality of the
passenger compartment air deterio-
rates which may cause the vehicle occu-
pants to feel drowsy. In operation
without cooling the air humidity
increases, so the windows may mist up.
Consequently, the air circulation system
should only be run for short periods of
time.

Driving and operation
Fuels, refuelling Fuel consumption
Fuel consumption is determined under
specific driving conditions – see page
3256.
Special equipment increases the weight of
the vehicle. As a result, they can increase
fuel consumption and reduce the specified
maximum speed.
For the first few thousand kilometres,
friction between the engine and
transmission components is higher. This
increases fuel consumption.
Fuel for petrol engines
Only use unleaded fuel that complies
with DIN EN 228.
Fuels with ethanol content greater than 5 %
may only be used if the vehicle has been
specifically developed and approved for
these fuels.
Use fuel with the recommended octane
rating (value in bold 3254). Use of fuel
with too low an octane rating can reduce
engine power and torque and will slightly
increase fuel consumption. Fuel for diesel engines
Only use diesel fuel that complies
with DIN EN 590. The fuel must have
low sulphur content (maximum 50 ppm).
Do not use marine diesel oils, heating oils
or entirely or partially plant-based diesel
fuels, such as rape seed oil or bio diesel,
Aquazole and similar diesel-water
emulsions. Diesel fuels must not be diluted
with fuels for petrol engines.
The flow and filterabilit
y of diesel fuel are
temperature-dependent. When
temperatures are low, refuel with diesel fuel
with guaranteed wi nter properties.
Picture no: 18309s.tif
Fuel filler cap
Only a Opel Genuine fuel filler cap provides
full functionality. Di esel-engined vehicles
have special fuel filler caps.
Refuelling
Caution
Use of fuel with too low an octane rating
could lead to uncontrolled combustion
and engine damage.
9
Warning
Before refuelling, switch off engine and
any external heater s with combustion
chambers 3 (identified by sticker on tank
flap). Switch off any mobile phones.
Follow the operating and safety instruc-
tions of the filling stat ion when refueling.
