NoteIn the event of an accident withairbag deployment, the engine isswitched off automatically if thevehicle comes to a standstill within acertain time.


Engine exhaust

9 Danger

Engine exhaust gases containpoisonous carbon monoxide,which is colourless and odourlessand could be fatal if inhaled.If exhaust gases enter the interiorof the vehicle, open the windows.Have the cause of the faultrectified by a workshop.Avoid driving with an open loadcompartment, otherwise exhaustgases could enter the vehicle.

Exhaust filterAutomatic cleaning processThe exhaust filter system filtersharmful soot particles out of theexhaust gases. The system includesa self-cleaning function that runsautomatically during driving withoutany notification. The filter is cleanedby periodically burning off the sootparticles at high temperature. Thisprocess takes place automaticallyunder set driving conditions and maytake up to 25 minutes. Typically itneeds between 7 and 12 minutes.Autostop is not available and fuelconsumption may be higher duringthis period. The emission of smellsand smoke during this process isnormal.

System requires manual cleaningprocessUnder certain driving conditions, e.g.driving short distances, the systemcannot clean itself automatically.If cleaning of the filter is required andif previous driving conditions did notenable automatic cleaning, it will be

indicated by illumination of % and awarning message in the DriverInformation Centre.% illuminates along with a warningmessage when exhaust filter is full.Start cleaning process as soon aspossible.% flashes along with a warningmessage when exhaust filter hasreached the maximum filling level.Start cleaning process immediately toavoid damage to the engine.

Activate manual cleaning processTo activate cleaning process,continue driving, keep engine speedabove 2000 rpm. Shift down ifnecessary. Exhaust filter cleaning isthen started.Cleaning takes place quickest at highengine speeds and loads.Control indicator % extinguishes assoon as the self-cleaning operation iscomplete. Keep on driving until self-cleaning operation is complete.


Caution

If possible, do not interruptcleaning process. Drive untilcleaning is completed to avoid theneed for service or repair by aworkshop.

Cleaning process not possibleIf cleaning is not possible for anyreasons, control indicator Zilluminates. Engine power may bereduced. Seek the assistance of aworkshop immediately.

Catalytic converterThe catalytic converter reduces theamount of harmful substances in theexhaust gases.

Caution

Starting offDepress the brake pedal and movethe selector lever to D/M or R. If D isselected, transmission is in automaticmode and first gear is engaged. If Ris selected, reverse gear is engaged.The vehicle starts to move when thebrake pedal is released.To start-off without depressing thebrake pedal, accelerate immediatelyafter engaging a gear as long as D orR flashes.If neither the accelerator nor thebrake pedal are depressed, no gearis engaged and D or R flashes for abrief time in the display.

Stopping the vehicleIn D, first gear is engaged and theclutch is released when the vehicle isstopped. In R, reverse gear remainsengaged.

Engine braking

Automatic modeWhen driving downhill, the manualtransmission automated does notshift into higher gears until a fairlyhigh engine speed has been reached.It shifts down in good time whenbraking.

Manual modeTo utilise the engine braking effect,select a lower gear in good time whendriving downhill. Changing intomanual mode is only possible whilethe engine is running or during anAutostop.

Rocking the vehicleRocking the vehicle is onlypermissible if the vehicle is stuck insand, mud or snow. Move the selectorlever between R and D in a repeatpattern. Do not race the engine andavoid sudden acceleration.


ParkingThe most recently engaged gear (seetransmission display) remainsengaged when switching off ignition.With N, no gear is engaged.Therefore always apply the parkingbrake when switching off ignition. Ifparking brake is not applied, P flashesin the transmission display and thekey cannot be removed from theignition switch. P stops flashing in thetransmission display as soon as theparking brake is slightly applied.When the ignition is switched off, thetransmission no longer responds tomovement of the selector lever.

Tyre pressure monitoring systemTo start the sensor matching processof the tyre pressure monitoringsystem, the selector lever must bemoved and held in position N for5 seconds. P illuminates in thetransmission display to indicate thatthe sensor matching process can bestarted.Tyre pressure monitoring system3 212.

Manual modeIf a higher gear is selected when theengine speed is too low, or a lowergear when the speed is too high, theshift is not executed. This preventsthe engine from running at too low ortoo high an engine speed. A warningmessage is displayed in the DriverInformation Centre.Vehicle messages 3 103.If engine speed is too low, thetransmission automatically shifts to alower gear.If engine speed is too high, thetransmission only switches to a highergear via kickdown.When + or - is selected in automaticmode, the transmission switches tomanual mode and shifts accordingly.

Gear shift indicationThe symbol R with a numberalongside it, is indicated whengearshifting is recommended for fuelsaving reasons.Shift indication appears only inmanual mode.

Electronic drivingprogrammes● Following a cold start, the

operating temperatureprogramme increases enginespeed to quickly bring thecatalytic converter to the requiredtemperature.

BrakesThe brake system comprises twoindependent brake circuits.If a brake circuit fails, the vehicle canstill be braked using the other brakecircuit. However, braking effect isachieved only when the brake pedalis depressed firmly. Considerablymore force is needed for this. Thebraking distance is extended. Seekthe assistance of a workshop beforecontinuing the journey.When the engine is not running, thesupport of the brake servo unitdisappears once the brake pedal hasbeen depressed once or twice.Braking effect is not reduced, butbraking requires significantly greaterforce. It is especially important to bearthis in mind when being towed.Control indicator R 3 93.

Antilock brake systemAntilock brake system (ABS)prevents the wheels from locking.

ABS starts to regulate brake pressureas soon as a wheel shows a tendencyto lock. The vehicle remainssteerable, even during hard braking.ABS control is made apparentthrough a pulse in the brake pedaland the noise of the regulationprocess.For optimum braking, keep the brakepedal fully depressed throughout thebraking process, despite the fact thatthe pedal is pulsating. Do not reducethe pressure on the pedal.After starting-off the system performsa self-test which may be audible.Control indicator u 3 93.

Adaptive brake lightDuring full braking, all three brakelights flash for the duration of ABScontrol.

Basic notes on parking assistsystems

9 Warning

Under certain circumstances,various reflective surfaces onobjects or clothing as well asexternal noise sources may causethe system to fail to detectobstacles.Special attention must be paid tolow obstacles which can damagethe lower part of the bumper.


Caution

Performance of the system can bereduced when sensors arecovered, e.g. by ice or snow.Performance of the parking assistsystem can be reduced due toheavy loading.Special conditions apply if thereare taller vehicles in the vicinity(e.g. off-road vehicles, mini vans,vans). Object identification andcorrect distance indication in theupper part of these vehiclescannot be guaranteed.Objects with a very small reflectioncross-section, e.g. objects ofnarrow size or soft materials, maynot be detected by the system.Parking assist systems do notdetect objects outside thedetection range.

NoteIt is possible that the sensor detectsa non-existing object caused byecho disturbance from external

acoustic noise or mechanicalmisalignments (sporadic falsewarnings may occur).Make sure that the front numberplate is properly mounted (not bentand no gaps to the bumper on the leftor right side) and the sensors arefirmly in place.Advanced parking assist systemmay not respond to changes in theavailable parking space afterinitiating a parking manoeuvre. Thesystem may recognize an entry, agateway, a courtyard or even acrossing as a parking slot. Afterselecting reverse gear the systemwill start a parking manoeuvre. Takecare regarding the availability of thesuggested parking slot.Surface irregularities, e.g. onconstruction zones, are not detectedby the system. The driver acceptsresponsibility.NoteIf engaging a forward gear andexceeding a certain speed, theparking assist will be deactivatedwhen the rear carrier system isextended.

If engaging reverse for the first time,the parking assist will detect the rearcarrier system and provide anacoustic signal. Press r or Dbriefly to deactivate the parkingassist.NoteAfter production, the systemrequires a calibration. For optimalparking guidance, a driving distanceof at least 10 km, including a numberof bends, is required.

Side blind spot alertThe Side blind spot alert systemdetects and reports objects on eitherside of the vehicle, within a specified"blind spot" zone. The systemdisplays a visual alert in each exteriormirror, when detecting objects thatmay not be visible in the interior andexterior mirrors.Side blind spot alert uses some of theadvanced parking assist sensorswhich are located in the front and rearbumper on both sides of the vehicle.


9 Warning

Side blind spot alert does notreplace driver vision.The system does not detect:

● vehicles outside the side blindzones which may be rapidlyapproaching

● pedestrians, cyclists or animalsBefore changing a lane, alwayscheck all mirrors, look over theshoulder and use the turn light.

When the system detects a vehicle inthe side blind zone while drivingforward, either while passing avehicle or being passed, a yellowwarning symbol B will illuminate inthe relevant exterior mirror. If thedriver then activates the turn light, thewarning symbol B starts flashingyellow as a warning not to changelanes.

NoteIf the overtaking vehicle is at least10 km/h faster than the vehicle beingovertaken, the warning symbol B inthe relevant exterior mirror may notilluminate.

Side blind spot alert is active fromspeeds of 10 km/h up to 140 km/h.Driving faster than 140 km/hdeactivates the system, indicated bylow lighting warning symbols B inboth exterior mirrors. Reducing thespeed again will extinguish thewarning symbols. If a vehicle is thendetected in the blind zone, thewarning symbols B will illuminate asnormal on the relevant side.

FuelFuel for petrol engines

Only use unleaded fuel that complieswith European standard EN 228 orequivalent.The engine is capable of running withfuel that contains up to 10% ethanol(e.g. named E10).Use fuel with the recommendedoctane rating. A lower octane ratingcan reduce engine power and torqueand slightly increases fuelconsumption.


Caution

Do not use fuel or fuel additivesthat contain metallic compoundssuch as manganese-basedadditives. This may cause enginedamage.

Caution

Use of fuel that does not comply toEN 228 or equivalent can lead todeposits or engine damage.

Caution

Use of fuel with a lower octanerating than the lowest possiblerating could lead to uncontrolledcombustion and engine damage.

The engine-specific requirementsregarding octane rating are given inthe engine data overview 3 242. Acountry-specific label at the fuel fillerflap can supersede the requirement.

Fuel additiveFuel should contain detergentadditives that help prevent engineand fuel system deposits fromforming. Clean fuel injectors andintake valves will allow the emissioncontrol system to work properly. Incertain countries fuel does notcontain sufficient quantities ofadditive to keep fuel injectors andintake valves clean. In thesecountries a fuel additive is required forsome engines to make up for this lackof detergency. Only use fuel additiveapproved for the vehicle.Adding fuel additive to the filled fueltank is required at least every 15,000km or after one year, whicheveroccurs first. For further information,contact your workshop.

Prohibited fuelsFuels containing oxygenates such asethers and ethanol, as well asreformulated fuel, are available insome cities. If these fuels comply withthe previously describedspecification, then they areacceptable to use. However, E85

(85% ethanol) and other fuelscontaining more than 15% ethanolmust be used only in FlexFuelvehicles.

Caution

Do not use fuel containingmethanol. It can corrode metalparts in the fuel system and alsodamage plastic and rubber parts.This damage would not becovered by the vehicle warranty.

Some fuels, mainly high octaneracing fuels, can contain an octaneenhancing additive calledmethylcyclopentadienyl manganesetricarbonyl (MMT). Do not use fuels orfuel additives with MMT as they canreduce spark plug life and affectemission control systemperformance. The malfunctionindicator light Z may illuminate 3 92.If this occurs, seek the assistance ofa workshop.


Fuel for diesel engines

Only use diesel fuel that complieswith EN 590 and which has a sulphurconcentration of max. 10 ppm.Fuels with a biodiesel (compliant withEN 14214) content of max. 7% byvolume may be used (e.g. namedB7).If travelling in countries outside theEuropean Union occasional use ofEuro-Diesel fuel with a sulphurconcentration below 50 ppm ispossible.

Caution

Frequent usage of diesel fuelcontaining more than 15 ppmsulphur will cause severe enginedamage.

Caution

Use of fuel that does not comply toEN 590 or similar can lead toengine powerloss, increased wearor engine damage and may affectyour warranty.

Do not use marine diesel oils, heatingoils, Aquazole and similar diesel-water emulsions. Diesel fuels mustnot be diluted with fuels for petrolengines.

Low temperature operationAt temperatures below 0° C, somediesel products with biodiesel blendsmay clog, freeze or gel, which mayaffect the fuel supply system. Startingand engine operation may not workproperly. Make sure to fill wintergrade diesel fuel at ambienttemperatures below 0°C.Arctic grade diesel fuel can be usedin extreme cold temperatures below-20° C. Using this fuel grade in warmor hot climates is not recommended

and may cause engine stalling, poorstarting or damage on the fuelinjection system.

Fuel for liquid gas operation

Liquid gas is known as LPG(Liquefied Petroleum Gas) or underits French name GPL (Gaz de PétroleLiquéfié). LPG is also known asAutogas.LPG consists mainly of propane andbutane. The octane rating is between105 and 115, depending on thebutane proportion. LPG is storedliquid at around 5-10 bar pressure.The boiling point depends on thepressure and mixing ratio. At ambientpressure, it is between -42 °C (purepropane) and -0.5 °C (pure butane).


Caution

The system works at an ambienttemperature of approx. -8 °C to100 °C.

Full function of the LPG system canonly be guaranteed with liquid gaswhich complies with the minimumrequirements of DIN EN 589.Fuel selector 3 86.

Refuelling

9 Danger

Before refuelling, switch offignition and any external heaterswith combustion chambers.Follow the operating and safetyinstructions of the filling stationwhen refuelling.

9 Danger

Fuel is flammable and explosive.No smoking. No naked flames orsparks.If you can smell fuel in yourvehicle, have the cause of thisremedied immediately by aworkshop.

A label with symbols at the fuel fillerflap is indicating the allowed fueltypes. In Europe the pump nozzles ofthe filling stations are marked withthese symbols. Refuel only theallowed fuel type.

Trailer hitchGeneral informationOnly use towing equipment that hasbeen approved for your vehicle.Entrust retrofitting of towingequipment to a workshop. It may benecessary to make changes thataffect the cooling system, heatshields or other equipment.The bulb outage detection function fortrailer brake light cannot detect apartial bulb outage. E.g. in case offour bulbs with a power of 5 W each,the function only detects lamp outagewhen only a single 5 W lamp remainsor none remain.Fitting of towing equipment couldcover the opening of the towing eye.If this is the case use the coupling ballbar for towing. Always keep thecoupling ball bar in the vehicle whennot in use.

Driving characteristics andtowing tipsBefore attaching a trailer, lubricatethe coupling ball. However, do not doso if a stabiliser, which acts on thecoupling ball, is being used to reducesnaking movements.For trailers with low driving stabilityand caravan trailers with a permittedgross vehicle weight of more than1000 kg a speed of 80 km/h must notbe exceeded; the use of a stabiliser isrecommended.If the trailer starts snaking, drive moreslowly, do not attempt to correct thesteering and brake sharply ifnecessary.When driving downhill, drive in thesame gear as if driving uphill anddrive at a similar speed.Adjust tyre pressure to the valuespecified for full load 3 252.


Trailer towingTrailer loadsThe permissible trailer loads arevehicle and engine-dependentmaximum values which must not beexceeded. The actual trailer load isthe difference between the actualgross weight of the trailer and theactual coupling socket load with thetrailer coupled.The permissible trailer loads arespecified in the vehicle documents. Ingeneral, they are valid for gradientsup to max. 12%The permitted trailer loads apply up tothe specified incline and up to analtitude of 1000 m above sea level.Since engine power decreases asaltitude increases due to the airbecoming thinner, therefore reducingclimbing ability, the permissible grosstrain weight also decreases by 10%for every 1000 m of additionalaltitude. The gross train weight doesnot have to be reduced when drivingon roads with slight inclines (less than8%, e.g. motorways).

The permissible gross train weightmust not be exceeded. This weight isspecified on the identification plate3 238.

Vertical coupling loadThe vertical coupling load is the loadexerted by the trailer on the couplingball. It can be varied by changing theweight distribution when loading thetrailer.Petrol and diesel enginesThe maximum permissible verticalcoupling load (55 kg) is specified onthe towing equipment identificationplate and in the vehicle documents.Always aim for the maximum load,especially in the case of heavytrailers. The vertical coupling loadshould never fall below 25 kg.Engine B14XEL LPG / D14XEL LPGThe maximum permissible verticalcoupling load (45 kg) is specified onthe towing equipment identificationplate and in the vehicle documents.Always aim for the maximum load,especially in the case of heavytrailers. The vertical coupling loadshould never fall below 25 kg.

Rear axle loadPetrol and diesel enginesWhen the trailer is coupled and thetowing vehicle fully loaded, thepermissible rear axle load (seeidentification plate or vehicledocuments) for passenger vehiclesmay be exceeded by 70 kg for the 5-door vehicle and 60 kg for the 3-doorvehicle, the gross vehicle weightrating by 55 kg.Engine B14XEL LPG / D14XEL LPGWhen the trailer is coupled and thetowing vehicle fully loaded, thepermissible rear axle load (seeidentification plate or vehicledocuments) for passenger vehiclesmay be exceeded by 70 kg for the 5-door vehicle and 70 kg for the 3-doorvehicle and the gross vehicle weightrating by 45 kg.Delivery vanWhen the trailer is coupled and thetowing vehicle fully loaded, thepermissible rear axle load (seeidentification plate or vehicledocuments) for passenger vehiclesmay be exceeded by 60 kg and thegross vehicle weight rating by 55 kg.


GeneralIf the permitted rear axle load isexceeded a maximum speed of100 km/h applies. If lower nationalmaximum speeds are specified fortrailer operation, they must becomplied with.

Wheels and tyres

Tyre condition, wheel conditionDrive over edges slowly and at rightangles if possible. Driving over sharpedges can cause tyre and wheeldamage. Do not trap tyres on the kerbwhen parking.Regularly check the wheels fordamage. Seek the assistance of aworkshop in the event of damage orunusual wear.We recommend not swapping thefront wheels with the rear wheels andvice versa, as this can affect vehiclestability. Always use less worn tyreson the rear axle.

Winter tyresWinter tyres improve driving safety attemperatures below 7 °C and shouldtherefore be fitted on all wheels.All tyre sizes are permitted as wintertyres 3 252.In accordance with country-specificregulations, affix the speed sticker inthe driver's field of view.

OPC with Michelin Pilot Sport 4 andPilot Super Sport tyresThis model is factory-fitted with highperformance sports tyres, which havea reduced performance at lowtemperature.

9 Danger

Use winter tyres at temperaturesbelow 0 °C, otherwise damage ofthe high performance sports tyresis possible.

Vehicle care 211

T : up to 190 km/hH : up to 210 km/hV : up to 240 km/hW : up to 270 km/h

Choose a tyre appropriate for themaximum speed of your vehicle.The maximum speed is achievable atkerb weight with driver (75 kg) plus125 kg payload. Optional equipmentcould reduce the maximum speed ofthe vehicle.Performance 3 244.

Directional tyresDirectional tyres must be mounted sothat they rotate in the correctdirection. The proper rotationdirection is indicated by a symbol(e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.

Tyre pressureCheck the pressure of cold tyres atleast every 14 days and before anylong journey. Do not forget the sparewheel.This also applies to vehicles with tyrepressure monitoring system.

Tyre pressure 3 252.The tyre pressure information labelon the right door frame indicates theoriginal equipment tyres and thecorrespondent tyre pressures.The tyre pressure data refers to coldtyres. It applies to summer and wintertyres.The ECO tyre pressure serves toachieve the smallest amount of fuelconsumption possible.Incorrect tyre pressures will impairsafety, vehicle handling, comfort andfuel economy and will increase tyrewear.

Tyre pressures differ depending onvarious options.For the correct tyre pressure value,follow the procedure below:● Identify the engine identifier

code. Engine data 3 242.● Identify the respective tyre.● The tyre pressure tables show all

possible tyre combinations3 252.

For the tyres approved for yourvehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate ofConformity provided with your vehicleor other national registrationdocuments.The driver is responsible for correctadjustment of tyre pressure.

9 Warning

If the pressure is too low, this canresult in considerable tyre warm-up and internal damage, leading totread separation and even to tyreblow-out at high speeds.

212 Vehicle care

9 Warning

For specific tyres therecommended tyre pressure asshown in the tyre pressure tablemay exceed the maximum tyrepressure as indicated on the tyre.Never exceed the maximum tyrepressure as indicated on the tyre.

If the tyre pressure must be reducedor increased, switch off ignition. Afteradjusting tyre pressure switch onignition and select the relevant settingon the page Tyre load in the DriverInformation Centre 3 97.

Temperature dependencyThe tyre pressure depends on thetemperature of the tyre. Duringdriving, tyre temperature andpressure increase. Tyre pressurevalues provided on the tyreinformation label and tyre pressurechart are valid for cold tyres, whichmeans at 20 °C.

The pressure increases by nearly10 kPa for a 10 °C temperatureincrease. This must be consideredwhen warm tyres are checked.The tyre pressure value displayed inthe Driver Information Centre showsthe real tyre pressure. A cooled downtyre will show a decreased value,which does not indicate an air leak.

Tyre pressure monitoringsystemThe tyre pressure monitoring systemchecks the pressure of all four tyresonce a minute when vehicle speedexceeds a certain limit.

Caution

Tyre pressure monitoring systemwarns only about low tyre pressurecondition and does not replaceregular tyre maintenance by thedriver.

All wheels must be equipped withpressure sensors and the tyres musthave the prescribed pressure.

NoteIn countries where the tyre pressuremonitoring system is legallyrequired, the use of wheels withoutpressure sensors will invalidate thevehicle operating permit.

The current tyre pressures can beshown in the Vehicle InformationMenu ? in the Driver InformationCentre.The menu can be selected bypressing the buttons on the stalk.

Press MENU to select the VehicleInformation Menu ?.Turn the adjuster wheel to select thetyre pressure monitoring system.

● Drive particularly carefully on wetand snow-covered roadsurfaces.

Jump startingDo not start with a quick charger.A vehicle with a discharged vehiclebattery can be started using jumpleads and the vehicle battery ofanother vehicle.

9 Warning

Be extremely careful when startingwith jump leads. Any deviationfrom the following instructions canlead to injuries or damage causedby battery explosion or damage tothe electrical systems of bothvehicles.

9 Warning

Avoid contact of the battery witheyes, skin, fabrics and paintedsurfaces. The fluid containssulphuric acid which can causeinjuries and damage in the eventof direct contact.

● Never expose the battery tonaked flames or sparks.

● A discharged vehicle battery canalready freeze at a temperatureof 0 °C. Defrost the frozen batterybefore connecting jump leads.

● Wear eye protection andprotective clothing whenhandling a battery.

● Use a booster battery with thesame voltage (12 V). Its capacity(Ah) must not be much less thanthat of the discharged vehiclebattery.

● Use jump leads with insulatedterminals and a cross section ofat least 16 mm2 (25 mm2 fordiesel engines).

● Do not disconnect the dischargedvehicle battery from the vehicle.

● Switch off all unnecessaryelectrical consumers.

● Do not lean over the batteryduring jump starting.

● Do not allow the terminals of onelead to touch those of the otherlead.

● The vehicles must not come intocontact with each other duringthe jump starting process.

228 Vehicle care

● Apply the parking brake,transmission in neutral,automatic transmission in P.

● Open the positive terminalprotection caps of both vehiclebatteries.

Lead connection order:1. Connect the red lead to the

positive terminal of the boostervehicle battery.

2. Connect the other end of the redlead to the positive terminal of thedischarged vehicle battery.

3. Connect the black lead to thenegative terminal of the boostervehicle battery.

4. Connect the other end of the blacklead to a vehicle grounding point,such as the engine block or anengine mounting bolt. Connect asfar away from the dischargedvehicle battery as possible,however at least 60 cm.

Route the leads so that they cannotcatch on rotating parts in the enginecompartment.To start the engine:1. Start the engine of the vehicle

providing the jump.2. After 5 minutes, start the other

engine. Start attempts should bemade for no longer than15 seconds at an interval of1 minute.

3. Allow both engines to idle forapprox. 3 minutes with the leadsconnected.

4. Switch on electrical consumers(e.g. headlights, heated rearwindow) of the vehicle receivingthe jump start.

5. Reverse above sequence exactlywhen removing leads.

After towing, unscrew the towing eye.Insert cap at the top and engagedownwards.

Vehicle care 231

Appearance careExterior careLocksThe locks are lubricated at the factoryusing a high quality lock cylindergrease. Use a de-icing agent onlywhen absolutely necessary, as thishas a degreasing effect and impairslock function. After using a de-icingagent, have the locks regreased by aworkshop.

WashingThe paintwork of your vehicle isexposed to environmental influences.Wash and wax your vehicle regularly.When using automatic vehiclewashes, select a programme thatincludes waxing. Restrictions forfilmed or matt painted body parts ordecor tapes, see "Polishing andwaxing".Bird droppings, dead insects, resin,pollen and the like should be cleanedoff immediately, as they containaggressive constituents which cancause paint damage.

If using a car wash, comply with thecar wash manufacturer's instructions.The windscreen wiper and rearwindow wiper must be switched off.Remove antenna and externalaccessories such as roof racks etc.If you wash your vehicle by hand,make sure that the insides of thewheel housings are also thoroughlyrinsed out.Clean edges and folds on openeddoors and the bonnet as well as theareas they cover.Clean bright metal mouldings with acleaning solution approved foraluminium to avoid damages.

Caution

Always use a cleaning agent witha pH value of 4 to 9.Do not use cleaning agents on hotsurfaces.

Have the door hinges of all doorsgreased by a workshop.Do not clean the engine compartmentwith a steam-jet or high-pressure jetcleaner.

Thoroughly rinse and leather-off thevehicle. Rinse leather frequently. Useseparate leathers for painted andglass surfaces: remnants of wax onthe windows will impair vision.Do not use hard objects to removespots of tar. Use tar removal spray onpainted surfaces.

Exterior lightsHeadlight and other light covers aremade of plastic. Do not use anyabrasive or caustic agents, do not usean ice scraper, and do not clean themdry.

Polishing and waxingWax painted parts of the vehicleregularly (at the latest when water nolonger beads). Otherwise, thepaintwork will dry out.Polishing is necessary only if the painthas become dull or if solid depositshave become attached to it.Paintwork polish with silicone forms aprotective film, making waxingunnecessary.

232 Vehicle care

Unpainted plastic body parts must notbe treated with wax or polishingagents.Matt filmed body parts or decor tapesmust not be polished, to avoidgleaming. Do not use hot waxprogrammes in automatic car washesif the vehicle is equipped with theseparts.Matt painted decor parts, e.g. mirrorhousing cover, must not be polished.Otherwise these parts would becomeagleam or the colour would bedissolved.

Windows and windscreen wiperbladesUse a soft lint-free cloth or chamoisleather together with window cleanerand insect remover.When cleaning the rear window frominside, always wipe in parallel to theheating element to prevent damage.For mechanical removal of ice, use asharp-edged ice scraper. Press thescraper firmly against the glass sothat no dirt can get under it andscratch the glass.

Clean smearing wiper blades with asoft cloth and window cleaner.Remove dirt residues from smearingwiper blades by using a soft cloth andwindow cleaner. Also make sure toremove any residues such as wax,insect residues and similar from thewindow.Ice residues, pollution and continuouswiping on dry windows will damage oreven destroy the wiper blades.

SunroofNever clean with solvents or abrasiveagents, fuels, aggressive media (e.g.paint cleaner, acetone-containingsolutions etc.), acidic or highlyalkaline media or abrasive pads. Donot apply wax or polishing agents tothe sunroof.

Wheels and tyresDo not use high-pressure jetcleaners.Clean rims with a pH-neutral wheelcleaner.Rims are painted and can be treatedwith the same agents as the body.

Paintwork damageRectify minor paintwork damage witha touch-up pen before rust forms.Have more extensive damage or rustareas repaired by a workshop.

UnderbodySome areas of the vehicle underbodyhave a PVC undercoating while othercritical areas have a durableprotective wax coating.After the underbody is washed, checkthe underbody and have it waxed ifnecessary.Bitumen / rubber materials coulddamage the PVC coating. Haveunderbody work carried out by aworkshop.Before and after winter, wash theunderbody and have the protectivewax coating checked.

Recommended fluids,lubricants and partsRecommended fluids andlubricantsOnly use products that meet therecommended specifications.

9 Warning

Operating materials arehazardous and could bepoisonous. Handle with care. Payattention to information given onthe containers.

Engine oilEngine oil is identified by its qualityand its viscosity. Quality is moreimportant than viscosity whenselecting which engine oil to use. Theoil quality ensures e.g. enginecleanliness, wear protection and oilaging control, whereas viscositygrade gives information on the oil'sthickness over a temperature range.

Dexos is the newest engine oil qualitythat provides optimum protection forpetrol and diesel engines. If it isunavailable, engine oils of other listedqualities have to be used.Recommendations for petrol enginesare also valid for Compressed NaturalGas (CNG), Liquified Petroleum Gas(LPG) and Ethanol (E85) fuelledengines.Select the appropriate engine oilbased on its quality and on theminimum ambient temperature3 239.

Topping up engine oil

Caution

In case of any spilled oil, wipe it upand dispose it properly.

Engine oils of different manufacturersand brands can be mixed as long asthey comply with the required engineoil quality and viscosity.

236 Service and maintenance

Use of engine oils for all petrolengines with only ACEA quality isprohibited, since it can cause enginedamage under certain operatingconditions.Select the appropriate engine oilbased on its quality and on theminimum ambient temperature3 239.

Additional engine oil additivesThe use of additional engine oiladditives could cause damage andinvalidate the warranty.

Engine oil viscosity gradesThe SAE viscosity grade givesinformation of the thickness of the oil.Multigrade oil is indicated by twofigures, e.g. SAE 5W-30. The firstfigure, followed by a W, indicates thelow temperature viscosity and thesecond figure the high temperatureviscosity.Select the appropriate viscosity gradedepending on the minimum ambienttemperature 3 239.

All of the recommended viscositygrades are suitable for high ambienttemperatures.

Coolant and antifreezeUse only silicate-free long life coolant(LLC) antifreeze. Consult aworkshop.The system is factory filled withcoolant designed for excellentcorrosion protection and frostprotection down to approx. -28 °C. Innorthern countries with very lowtemperatures the factory filled coolantprovides frost protection down toapprox. -37 °C. This concentrationshould be maintained all year round.The use of additional coolantadditives that intend to give additionalcorrosion protection or seal againstminor leaks can cause functionproblems. Liability for consequencesresulting from the use of additionalcoolant additives will be rejected.

Washer fluidUse only washer fluid approved forthe vehicle to prevent damage ofwiper blades, paintwork, plastic andrubber parts. Consult a workshop.

Brake and clutch fluidOver time, brake fluid absorbsmoisture which will reduce brakingeffectiveness. The brake fluid shouldtherefore be replaced at the specifiedinterval.

Vehicle data recordingand privacyEvent data recordersElectronic control units are installed inyour vehicle. Control units processdata which is received by vehiclesensors, for example, or which theygenerate themselves or exchangeamongst themselves. Some controlunits are necessary for the safefunctioning of your vehicle, othersassist you while you drive (driverassistance systems), while othersprovide comfort or infotainmentfunctions.

Operating data in the vehicleControl units process data foroperation of the vehicle.


This data includes, for example:● Vehicle status information (e.g.

wheel rotation rate, speed,movement delay, lateralacceleration, "seatbeltsfastened" display),

● Ambient conditions (e.g.temperature, rain sensor,distance sensor).

Most of this data is volatile and isprocessed only in the vehicle itself,and not beyond the operating time.Moreover, many control units includedata storage device (amongst othersthe vehicle key). This is used to allowinformation to be documentedtemporarily or permanently on vehiclecondition, component stress,maintenance requirements andtechnical events and errors.The following information, forexample, is stored:● System component operating

states (e.g. fill level, tyrepressure, battery status),

● State of charge of the highvoltage battery, estimated range(in the case of electric vehicles),

● Faults and defects in importantsystem components (e.g. lights,brakes),

● System reactions in specialdriving situations (e.g. triggeringof an airbag, actuation of thestability control systems),

● Information on events damagingthe vehicle.

In special cases (e.g. if the vehiclehas detected a malfunction), it may benecessary to save data that wouldotherwise just be volatile.When you use services, the operatingdata saved can be read together withthe vehicle identification number andused if necessary. Staff working forthe service net-work (e.g. garages,manufacturers) or third parties (e.g.breakdown services) can read thedata from the vehicle. Servicesinclude repair services, maintenanceprocesses, warranty cases andquality assurance measures.Data is generally read via the OBD(On-Board Diagnostics) portprescribed by law in the vehicle. Theoperating data which has been readout documents the technical condition

of the vehicle or individualcomponents and assists with faultdiagnosis, compliance with warrantyobligations and quality improvement.This data, in particular information oncomponent stress, technical events,operator errors and other faults, istransmitted to the manufacturerwhere appropriate, together with thevehicle identification number. Themanufacturer is also subject toproduct liability. The manufacturerpotentially also needs operating datafrom vehicles for product recalls.Fault memories in the vehicle can bereset by a service company whencarrying out servicing or repairs.

Comfort and infotainmentfunctionsComfort settings and custom settingscan be stored in the vehicle andchanged at any time.


Depending on the equipment level inquestion, these include● Seat and steering wheel position

settings,● Chassis and air conditioning

settings,● Custom settings such as interior

lighting.You can input your own data in theinfotainment functions for yourvehicle as part of the selectedfeatures.Depending on the equipment level inquestion, these include● Multimedia data such as music,

videos or photos for playback inan integrated multimedia system,

● Address book data for use withan integrated hands-free systemor an integrated navigationsystem,

● Input destinations,● Data on the use of online

services.This data for comfort andinfotainment functions can be storedlocally in the vehicle or be kept on a

device that you have connected to thevehicle (e.g. a smartphone, USB stickor MP3 player). Data that you haveinput yourself can be deleted at anytime.This data can only be transmitted outof the vehicle at your request,particularly when using onlineservices in accordance with thesettings selected by you.

Smartphone integration, e.g.Android Auto or Apple CarPlayIf your vehicle is equippedaccordingly, you can connect yoursmartphone or another mobile deviceto the vehicle so that you can controlit via the controls integrated in thevehicle. The smartphone image andsound can be output via themultimedia system in this case. At thesame time, specific information istransmitted to your smartphone.Depending on the type of integration,this includes data such as positiondata, day / night mode and othergeneral vehicle information. For more

information, please see the operatinginstructions for the vehicle /infotainment system.Integration allows selectedsmartphone apps to be used, such asnavigation or music playback. Nofurther integration is possiblebetween smartphone and vehicle, inparticular active access to vehicledata. The nature of further dataprocessing is determined by theprovider of the app used. Whetheryou can define settings, and if sowhich ones, is dependent on the appin question and your smartphone'soperating system.


Online servicesIf your vehicle has a radio networkconnection, this allows data to beexchanged between your vehicle andother systems. The radio networkconnection is made possible bymeans of a transmitter device in yourvehicle or a mobile device providedby you (e.g. a smartphone). Onlinefunctions can be used via this radionetwork connection. These includeonline services and applications /apps provided to you by themanufacturer or other providers.

Services of the manufacturerIn the case of the manufacturer'sonline services, the relevant functionsare described by the manufacturer inan appropriate location (e.g. Owner'sManual, the manufacturer's website)and the associated data protectioninformation is provided. Personaldata may be used to provide onlineservices. Data exchange for thispurpose takes place via a protectedconnection, e.g. using themanufacturer's IT systems providedfor the purpose. Collection,

processing and use of personal datafor the purposes of preparation ofservices take place solely on thebasis of legal permission, e.g. in thecase of the eCall emergencycommunication system or acontractual agreement, or by virtue ofconsent.You can activate or deactivate theservices and functions (which aresubject to charges to some extent)and, in some cases, the vehicle'sentire radio network connection. Inparticular, this does not includestatutory functions and services suchas eCall.

Third party servicesIf you make use of online servicesfrom other providers (third parties),these services are subject to theliability and data protection and usageconditions of the provider in question.The manufacturer frequently has noinfluence over the content exchangedin this regard.

Therefore, please note the nature,scope and purpose of the collectionand use of personal data within thescope of third party services providedby the service provider in question.

Radio FrequencyIdentification (RFID)RFID technology is used in somevehicles for functions such as tyrepressure monitoring and immobiliser.It is also used in connection withconveniences such as radio remotecontrols for door locking / unlockingand starting. RFID technology in Opelvehicles does not use or recordpersonal information or link with anyother Opel system containingpersonal information.
