Driving and operating205Trailer hitch
General information
Only use towing equipment that has
been approved for your vehicle. If
using non-factory fitted towing
equipment, deactivation of the hands- free tailgate operation may be
required 3 29.
Entrust retrofitting of towing
equipment to a workshop. It may be
necessary to make changes that
affect the cooling system, heat
shields or other equipment.
The bulb outage detection function for trailer brake light cannot detect a
partial bulb outage. E.g. in case of
four bulbs with a power of 5 W each,
the function only detects light outage
when only a single 5 W light remains
or none remain.
Trailers equipped with LED lights are
not suitable for the wiring harness of
this trailer hitch.
Fitting of towing equipment could
cover the opening of the towing eye.
If this is the case use the coupling ballbar for towing. Always keep the
coupling ball bar in the vehicle to have it on hand if needed.
Driving characteristics and towing tips
Before attaching a trailer, lubricatethe coupling ball. However, do not do
so if a stabiliser, which acts on the coupling ball, is being used to reduce
snaking movements.
During trailer towing do not exceed a
speed of 50 mph. A maximum speed
of 60 mph is only appropriate if an oscillation damper is used and the
permissible gross trailer weight does
not exceed the vehicle's curb weight.
For trailers with low driving stability
and caravan trailers, the use of an
oscillation damper is strongly
recommended.
If the trailer starts snaking, drive more slowly, do not attempt to correct the
steering and brake sharply if
necessary.
When driving downhill, drive in the
same gear as if driving uphill and
drive at a similar speed.Adjust tyre pressure to the value
specified for full load 3 266.
Trailer towing
Trailer loads The permissible trailer loads are
vehicle and engine-dependent
maximum values which must not be
exceeded. The actual trailer load is
the difference between the actual
gross weight of the trailer and the
actual coupling socket load with the
trailer coupled.
The permissible trailer loads are
specified in the vehicle documents. In general, they are valid for inclines up
to 12%.
The permissible trailer load applies
up to the specified incline and at sea
level. Since engine power decreases
as altitude increases due to the air
becoming thinner, therefore reducing
climbing ability, the permissible gross
train weight also decreases by 10%
for every 1000 m of altitude. The
gross train weight does not have to be

Accessories and vehicle modifications
We recommend the use of genuine parts and accessories and factory
approved parts specific for your
vehicle type. We cannot assess or
guarantee reliability of other products - even if they have a regulatory or
otherwise granted approval.
Any modification, conversion or other
changes made to standard vehicle
specifications (including, without
limitation, software modifications,
modifications of the electronic control units) may invalidate the warranty
offered by Vauxhall. Furthermore,
such changes may affect driver
assistance systems, may impact fuel
consumption, CO 2 emissions and
other emissions of the vehicle and
cause the vehicle to no longer
conform to the operating permit,
impacting the validity of your vehicle
registration.

218Vehicle care● See the Owner's Manual forfurther information.
● Explosive gas may be present in the vicinity of the vehicle battery.
Power saving mode This mode deactivates electrical
consumers to avoid excessive
discharging of the vehicle battery.
These consumers, such as the
Infotainment system, windscreen
wipers, low beam headlights,
courtesy light, etc. can be used for a
total maximum time of about
40 minutes after ignition is switched
off.
Changing into power saving mode
When power saving mode is
activated, a message appears in the
Driver Information Centre.
An active telephone call using the
hands-free option will be maintained
for around 10 minutes longer.Deactivating power saving mode
Power saving mode is deactivated
automatically when the engine is
restarted. Run the engine for a
sufficient charge:
● for less than 10 minutes to use the consumers for approx.
5 minutes
● for more than 10 minutes to use the consumers for up to approx.
30 minutes
Heating functionalities Notice
Individual heating functionalities,
such as heated seats or heated
steering wheel, may be temporarily
unavailable in the event of electrical
loading constraints. Functions will
be resumed after some minutes.Diesel fuel system bleeding
If the 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. Repeat this process after
no less than 5 seconds. If the engine fails to start, seek the assistance of a
workshop.

2. Turn bulb socket clockwise andremove from light assembly.
3. Detach the bulb from the bulbsocket and replace the bulb.
4. Insert bulb socket and turnanticlockwise.
5. Insert left end of the light assembly, slide to the left and
insert right end.
Number plate light
Number plate lights are designed as LEDs and can not be changed.
Have lights repaired by a workshop in
case of failure.
Interior lights
Have the following bulbs replaced by
a workshop:
● courtesy light, reading lights
● load compartment light
● instrument panel illuminationElectrical system
Fuses Data on the replacement fuse mustmatch the data on the defective fuse.
There are two fuse boxes in the
vehicle:
● engine compartment
● instrument panel
Before replacing a fuse, turn off the
respective switch and the ignition.
A blown fuse can be recognised by its melted wire.Caution
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.

236Vehicle care9. Connect the compressor plug tothe power outlet or cigarette
lighter socket.
The tyre repair kit may only be
plugged in to the front 12 V power
outlet, in order to work properly.
To avoid discharging the battery,
we recommend running the
engine.
10. Set the rocker switch on the compressor to I. The tyre is filled
with sealant.
11. The compressor pressure gauge briefly indicates up to
600 kPa (6 bar) whilst the sealant
bottle is emptying (approx.
30 seconds). Then the pressure
starts to drop.
12. All of the sealant is pumped into the tyre. Then the tyre is being
inflated.
13. The prescribed tyre pressure should be obtained within
10 minutes.
Tyre pressure 3 266.
When the correct pressure is
obtained, switch off the
compressor.
If the prescribed tyre pressure is
not obtained within 10 minutes,
remove the tyre repair kit. Move
the vehicle one tyre rotation.
Reattach the tyre repair kit and
continue the filling procedure for 10 minutes. If the prescribed tyre
pressure is still not obtained, the
tyre is too badly damaged. Seek
the assistance of a workshop.
Drain excess tyre pressure with
the button on the air hose.
Do not run the compressor longer
than 10 minutes.
14. Detach the tyre repair kit. Remove
sealant bottle from bracket. Screw the filler hose to the free
connection of the sealant bottle.
This prevents sealant from
escaping. Stow tyre repair kit in
load compartment.
15. Remove any excess sealant using a cloth.

244Vehicle care3. Allow both engines to idle forapprox. 3 minutes with the leads
connected.
4. Switch on electrical consumers e.g. headlights, heated rear
window of the vehicle receiving
the jump start.
5. Reverse above sequence exactly when removing leads.Towing
Towing the vehicle
Remove the cap.
The towing eye is stowed with the
vehicle tools 3 229.
Screw in the towing eye as far as it will
go until it stops in a horizontal
position.
Attach a tow rope – or better still a tow
rod – to the towing eye.
The towing eye must only be used for towing and not for recovering the
vehicle.
Switch on ignition to release steering
wheel lock and to permit operation of
brake lights, horn and windscreen
wiper.

Vehicle care247Do not clean the engine compartment
with a steam-jet or high-pressure jet
cleaner.
Thoroughly rinse and leather-off the
vehicle. Rinse leather frequently. Use
separate leathers for painted and
glass surfaces: remnants of wax on
the windows will impair vision.
Have the door hinges of all doors
greased by a workshop.
Exterior lights
Headlight and other light covers are
made of plastic. Do not use any
abrasive or caustic agents, do not use
an ice scraper, and do not clean them dry.
Polishing and waxing
Wax the vehicle regularly at the latest
when water no longer beads.
Otherwise, the paintwork will dry out.
Polishing is necessary only if the paint
has become dull or if solid deposits
have become attached to it.
Paintwork polish with silicone forms a
protective film, making waxing
unnecessary.Plastic body parts must not be treated with wax or polishing agents.
Windows and wiper blades Switch off wipers before handling in
their areas.
Use a soft lint-free cloth or chamois leather together with window cleanerand insect remover.
When cleaning the rear window from
inside, always wipe in parallel to the
heating element to prevent damage.
For mechanical removal of ice, use a
sharp-edged ice scraper. Press the
scraper firmly against the glass so
that no dirt can get under it and
scratch the glass.
Clean smearing wiper blades with a
soft cloth and window cleaner. Also
make sure to remove any residues
such as wax, insect residues and
similar from the window.
Ice residues, pollution and continuous
wiping on dry windows will damage or
even destroy the wiper blades.Glass panel
Use a soft lint-free cloth or chamois
leather together with window cleaner
to clean the glass panel.
Wheels and tyres Do not use high-pressure jet
cleaners.
Clean rims with a pH-neutral wheel
cleaner.
Rims are painted and can be treated
with the same agents as the body.
Paintwork damage Rectify minor paintwork damage witha touch-up pen before rust forms.
Have more extensive damage or rust areas repaired by a workshop.
Underbody Some areas of the vehicle underbody
have a PVC undercoating while other
critical areas have a durable
protective wax coating.
After the underbody is washed, check
the underbody and have it waxed if
necessary.
