oil filter OPEL ZAFIRA 2009 Owners Manual

Driving and operating
147
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 filterability of diesel fuel
are temperature-dependent. When
temperatures are low, refuel with
diesel fuel with guaranteed winter
properties.
Fuel for natural gas
operation
Use natural gas with a methane
content of approx. 78 - 99 %. L-gas
(low) has approx. 78 - 87 % and H-gas
(high) has approx. 87 - 99 %. Biogas
with the same methane content can
also be used if it has been chemically
prepared and desulphurised.
Liquid gas or LPG must not be used. Refuelling
9
Danger Before refuelling, switch off engine
and any external heaters with
combustion chambers (identified
by

sticker on fuel filler flap). Switch
off any mobile phones.
Follow the operating and safety
instructions of the filling station
when refuelling. 9
Danger Fuel is flammable and explosive.
No smoking. No naked flames or
sparks.
If you can smell fuel in your
vehicle, have the cause of this
remedied immediately by
a workshop.
Fuel filler flap is located at right rear
side of vehicle.
The

fuel filler flap can only be opened
if the vehicle is unlocked.

Engine oil quality for European
service schedules
GM-LL-
A-025 = Petrol engines
GM-LL-
B-025 = Diesel engines
without DPF
ACEA-C3 = Diesel engines with DPF
GM = General Motors Europe
LL = Longlife
A or B = Engine oil quality specification
025 = Validity index
Opel engine oil meets classifications
GM-LL-A-025 and GM-LL-B-025 and
is therefore suitable for both petrol
and diesel engines.
Engine oil quality for international
service schedules
ACEA-A3 = Petrol engines
ACEA-B4 = Diesel engines without diesel particle filter
ACEA-C3 = Diesel engines with diesel particle filter These oil qualities must only be used
with the international service
schedule.
Topping up engine oil
Engine
oils of different manufacturers
and brands can be mixed as long as
they comply with the required engine
oil (quality and viscosity).
If engine oil of the required quality is
not available, a maximum of 1 litre of
ACEA A3/B4 or A3/B3 grade may be
used (only once between each oil
change). The viscosity should be of
the correct rating.
Use of ACEA A1/B1 and A5/B5
engine oil is expressly forbidden,
since they can cause long-term
engine damage under certain
operating conditions.
Engine oil additives
The use of engine oil additives could
cause damage and invalidate the
warranty.
Engine oil viscosity
Use only engine oil viscosities SAE
0W-30, 0W-40, 5W-30 or 5W-40. The SAE viscosity rating defines the
ability of an oil to flow. When cold, oil
is more viscous than when hot.
Multigrade oil is indicated by two
figures. The first figure, followed by
a W, indicates low temperature
viscosity and the second figure the
high temperature viscosity.
Coolant and antifreeze
Use
only silicate-free long life coolant
(LLC) antifreeze.
The system is factory filled with
coolant designed for frost protection
down to approx. -28 °C. This
concentration should be maintained
all year-round.
Coolant additives intended to give
additional corrosion protection or seal
against minor leaks can cause
function problems. Liability for
consequences resulting from the use
of coolant additives will be rejected.
Brake and clutch fluid
Only use DOT4 brake fluid.
