208 Service and maintenance
Picture no: 18602s.tif
Inspection system In order to guarantee economical and safe
vehicle operation and to maintain the
value of your vehicle, it is of vital
importance that all maintenance work is
carried out at the proper intervals.
Fixed service interval
When service is due, InSP appears in the
odometer display for
approximately 10 seconds when the
ignition is switched on. Have the next
service performed by a workshop within
one week or 500 km (whichever occurs
first). The service interval display takes account
of off-the-road periods during which the
battery is disconnected.
Flexible service interval
3
The length of the service intervals is based
on several parameters stemming from
usage. For this reason, various
engine-specific data is continually
gathered and is used to calculate the
remaining distance until the next service.
If the remaining distance is less
than 1500 km, InSP is displayed with a
remaining distance of 1000 km when the
ignition is switched on and off. If less
than 1000 km remains, InSP is displayed for
several seconds. Have the next service
performed by a workshop within one week
or 500 km (whichever occurs first).
Display of remaining distance:
1. Switch off ignition.
2. Briefly press the trip odometer reset button. The odometer reading is shown.
3. Press and hold the reset button for about 2 seconds. InSP and the remaining
distance are displayed. Further information
on maintenance and
the inspection system can be found in the
Service and Warranty Booklet, which is in
the glove compartment.
Have maintenance work – and repair work
on the body and the equipment – carried
out professionally by a workshop. We
recommend using your Opel partner, who
has excellent knowledge of Opel vehicles
and has the necessary special tools and
up-to-date service inst ructions from Opel.
It is particularly advisable to use an Opel
Partner during the warranty period in order
to prevent loss of warranty. Further
information can be found in the Service
and Warranty Booklet.
Separate anti-corrosion service
Have this work done at the intervals given
in the Service and Warranty Booklet.
