Driving and operating143Catalytic converter
The catalytic converter reduces the
amount of harmful substances in the
exhaust gases.Caution
Fuel grades other than those listed on pages 3 193, 3 243 could
damage the catalytic converter or
electronic components.
Unburnt petrol will overheat and
damage the catalytic converter.
Therefore avoid excessive use of the starter, running the fuel tank
dry and starting the engine by
pushing or towing.
In the event of misfiring, uneven
engine running, a reduction in engine performance or other unusual
problems, have the cause of the fault
rectified by a workshop as soon as
possible. In an emergency, driving
can be continued for a short period,
keeping vehicle speed and engine
speed low.
AdBlue
General information
The selective catalytic reduction
(BlueInjection) is a method to
substantially reduce the nitrogen
oxides in the exhaust emission. This
is achieved by injecting a Diesel
Exhaust Fluid (DEF) into the exhaust
system. The ammonia released by
the fluid reacts with nitrous gases
(NO x) from the exhaust and turns it
into nitrogen and water.
The designation of this fluid is
AdBlue ®
. It is a non-toxic, non-
flammable, colourless and odourless
fluid which consists of 32% urea and
68% water.9 Warning
Avoid contact of your eyes or skin
with AdBlue.
In case of eye or skin contact,
rinse off with water.
Caution
Avoid contact of the paintwork with AdBlue.
In case of contact, rinse off with water.
AdBlue freezes at a temperature of
approx. -11 °C. As the vehicle is
equipped with an AdBlue pre-heater,
the emissions reduction at low
temperatures is ensured. The AdBlue
pre-heater works automatically.
The typical AdBlue consumption is
approx. 0.85 l per 600 miles, but can
also be higher depending on driving
behaviour (e.g. high load or towing).
AdBlue tank
At a remaining volume of approx. five litres, there is a liquid level switch.
Warning messages are displayed
only below that threshold. Tank
volume 3 245.

144Driving and operatingLevel warnings
Depending on the calculated range of
AdBlue, different messages are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre. The messages and the
restrictions are a legal requirement.
1. The first possible warning is Top
up emissions additive: Starting
prevented in 1500 mi .
When switching on the ignition,
this warning will show up once
briefly with the calculated range.
Additionally, control indicator
UREA will illuminate and a chime
will sound. Driving is possible
without any restrictions.
When driving, the message is
displayed every 200 miles until
the additive tank has been
topped-up.
2. The next warning level is entered with a range below 350 miles. Themessage with the current range
will always be displayed when
ignition is switched on.
Additionally, control indicator
UREA will flash and a chime willsound. Refill AdBlue before
entering the next warning level.
When driving, the message is
displayed every 30 seconds until
the additive tank has been
topped-up.
3. The last warning level is entered when the AdBlue tank is empty.
Restart of the engine is not
possible. The following warning
message will be displayed:
Top up emissions additive:
Starting prevented
Additionally, control indicator
UREA will flash and a chime will
sound.
The tank must be refilled with at
least 3.8 litres of AdBlue,
otherwise restarting of the engine
is not possible.
High emission warnings In the event of a fault with the
emissions control system, different
messages are displayed in the Driver
Information Centre. The messages
and the restrictions are a legal
requirement.1. If a fault is detected for the first time, the warning Emissions fault
is displayed.
Additionally, control indicators
UREA , SERVICE and Z will
illuminate and a chime will sound.
Driving is possible without any
restrictions.
If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey, after self-diagnosis of the
emissions control system.
2. If the fault is confirmed by the emission control system, thefollowing message will be
displayed:
Emissions fault: Starting
prevented in 650 miles .
Additionally, control indicators
UREA , SERVICE and Z will
illuminate and a chime will sound.
When driving, the message is
displayed every 30 seconds while
the fault persists.
3. If the last warning level is entered,
the following warning message
will be displayed:

Driving and operating145Emissions fault: Starting
prevented
Additionally, control indicators
UREA , SERVICE and Z will
illuminate and a chime will sound.
Consult a workshop for
assistance.
Refilling AdBlueCaution
Only use AdBlue that complies
with European standards
DIN 70 070 and ISO 22241-1.
Do not use additives.
Do not dilute AdBlue.
Otherwise the selective catalytic
reduction system could be
damaged.
Notice
Whenever a filling pump with a
nozzle for passenger cars is not
available at a filling station, use only
AdBlue bottles or canisters with a
sealed refill adapter for refilling, to
prevent splashback and overspill,
and in order to ensure that the fumes
from the tank are captured and do
not emerge. AdBlue in bottles or
canisters is available in many filling
stations and can be purchased e.g. at Vauxhall dealers and other retail
outlets.
Since AdBlue has a limited
durability, check the date of expiry
before refilling.
Notice
The refilling of AdBlue is only
detected by the system when the
abovementioned liquid level switch
in the tank is activated.
In case AdBlue refill is not
successfully detected:
1. Continuously drive the vehicle for 10 minutes making sure that
vehicle speed is always higher
than 12 mph.
2. If AdBlue refill is detected successfully, AdBlue supply-
driven limitations will disappear.
If AdBlue refill is still not detected,
seek the assistance of a workshop.
If AdBlue must be refilled at
temperatures below -11 °C, the
refilling of AdBlue may not bedetected by the system. In this
event, park the vehicle in a space
with a higher ambient temperature
until AdBlue is liquefied.
Notice
When unscrewing the protective cap from the filler neck, ammonia fumes
may emerge. Do not inhale as the
fumes have a pungent smell. The
fumes are not harmful by inhalation.
The AdBlue tank should be filled
completely. This must be done if the
warning message regarding
prevention of an engine restart is
already displayed.
The vehicle must be parked on a level surface.
The filler neck for AdBlue is located behind the fuel filler flap, which is
located at right rear side of the
vehicle.
The fuel filler flap can only be opened
if the vehicle is unlocked.
1. Remove key from ignition switch.2. Close all doors to avoid ammonia fumes entering the interior of the
vehicle.

146Driving and operating3. Release the fuel filler flap bypushing the flap 3 195.
4. Unscrew protective cap from the
filler neck.
5. Open AdBlue canister.
6. Mount one end of the hose on the
canister and screw the other end
on the filler neck.
7. Lift the canister until it is empty, or
until the flow from the canister has stopped. This can take up to five
minutes.
8. Place the canister on the ground to empty the hose, wait 15
seconds.
9. Unscrew the hose from the filler neck.
10. Mount the protective cap and turn
clockwise until it engages.
Notice
Dispose of AdBlue canister
according to environmental
requirements. Hose can be reused
after flushing with clear water before
AdBlue dries out.Automatic transmission
The automatic transmission permits
automatic gearshifting (automatic
mode) or manual gearshifting
(manual mode).
Manual shifting is possible in manual
mode by tapping the selector lever to + or - 3 148.
Transmission display
The mode or selected gear is shown
in the Driver Information Centre.
In automatic mode, the driving
programme is indicated by D.

Service and maintenance237Washer fluidUse only washer fluid approved for
the vehicle to prevent damage of
wiper blades, paintwork, plastic and
rubber parts. Consult a workshop.
Brake and clutch fluid Over time, brake fluid absorbs
moisture which will reduce braking
effectiveness. The brake fluid should
therefore be replaced at the specified
interval.
AdBlue Only use AdBlue to reduce the
nitrogen oxides in the exhaust
emission 3 143.
