Beyond the warning required by

ECE R94.02, for safety reasons a

forward-facing child restraint system

must only be used subject to the

instructions and restrictions in the

table 3 41.

The airbag label is located on both

sides of the front passenger sun visor.

Airbag deactivation 3 37.

36 Seats, restraints

Front airbag system

The front airbag system consists of

one airbag in the steering wheel and

one in the instrument panel on the

front passenger side. These can be

identified by the word AIRBAG.

The front airbag system is triggered in

the event of a front-end impact of a

certain severity. The ignition must be

switched on.

The inflated airbags cushion the

impact, thereby reducing the risk of

injury to the upper body and head of

the front seat occupants

considerably.

9Warning

Optimum protection is only

provided when the seat is in the

proper position.

Seat position 3 26.

Fasten the seat belt correctly and

engage securely. Only then is the

airbag able to protect.

Side airbag system

The side airbag system consists of an

airbag in each front seat backrest.

This can be identified by the word

AIRBAG.

The side airbag system is triggered in

the event of a side impact of a certain

severity. The ignition must be

switched on.

The inflated airbags cushion the

impact, thereby reducing the risk of

injury to the upper body and pelvis in

the event of a side-on collision

considerably.

Note

Only use protective seat covers that

have been approved for the vehicle.

Be careful not to cover the airbags.

Seats, restraints 37

Curtain airbag system

The curtain airbag system consists of

an airbag in the roof frame on each

side. This can be identified by the

word AIRBAG on the roof pillars.

The curtain airbag system is triggered

in the event of a side-on impact of a

certain severity. The ignition must be

switched on.

The inflated airbags cushion the

impact, thereby reducing the risk of

injury to the head in the event of a

side-on impact considerably.

9Warning

The hooks on the handles in the

roof frame are only suitable for

hanging up light articles of

clothing, without coat hangers. Do

not keep any items in these

clothes.

Airbag deactivation

The front passenger airbag system

must be deactivated for child restraint

system on the passenger seat

according to the instructions in the

table 3 41.

The side airbag and curtain airbag

systems, the belt pretensioners and

all driver airbag systems will remain

active.

The front passenger airbag system

can be deactivated via a key-

operated switch in the glovebox.

Use the ignition key to choose the

position:

OFF*: front passenger airbag is

deactivated and will not

inflate in the event of a

collision, control indicator

OFF* illuminates

continuously in the centre

console.

ONÓ: front passenger airbag is

active.

38 Seats, restraints

Note

After turning the key-operated

switch to position OFF *, keep on

turning towards this position until

key is removed.

9Danger

Deactivate passenger airbag only

in combination with the use of a

child restraint system, subject to

the instructions and restrictions in

the table 3 41.

Otherwise, there is a risk of fatal

injury for a person occupying a

seat with a deactivated front

passenger airbag.

If the control indicator Ó illuminates

for approx. 60 seconds after the

ignition is switched on, the front

passenger airbag system will inflate

in the event of a collision.

If the control indicator * illuminates

after the ignition is switched on, the

front passenger airbag system is

deactivated. It stays on while the

airbag is deactivated.

If both control indicators are

illuminated at the same time, there is

a system failure. The status of the

system is not discernible, therefore

no person is allowed to occupy the

front passenger seat. Contact a

workshop immediately.

Consult a workshop immediately if

neither of the two control indicators

are illuminated.

Change status only when the vehicle

is stopped with the ignition off.

Status remains until the next change.

Control indicator for airbag

deactivation 3 70.

Child restraints

Child restraint systems

9Danger

If using a rear-facing child restraint

system on the front passenger

seat, the airbag system for the

front passenger seat must be

deactivated. This also applies to

certain forward-facing child

restraint systems as indicated in

the tables 3 41.

Airbag deactivation 3 37.

Airbag label 3 32.

We recommend a child restraint

system which is tailored specifically to

the vehicle. For further information,

contact your workshop.

Before fastening a child seat adjust

the head restraint 3 25.

When a child restraint system is being

used, pay attention to the following

usage and installation instructions

and also those supplied with the child

restraint system.

Seats, restraints 39

Always comply with local or national

regulations. In some countries, the

use of child restraint systems is

forbidden on certain seats.

Child restraint systems can be

fastened with:

● Three-point seat belt

● ISOFIX brackets

● Top-tether

Three-point seat belt

Child restraint systems can be

fastened by using a three-point seat

belt. After fastening the child restraint

system the seat belt has to be

tightened.

ISOFIX brackets

Fasten vehicle-approved ISOFIX

child restraint systems to the ISOFIX

brackets. Specific vehicle ISOFIX

child restraint system positions are

marked in the ISOFIX table 3 41.

ISOFIX brackets are indicated by a

label on the backrest. To get access

to the ISOFIX brackets, first pull the

zipper.

An i-Size child restraint system is an

universal ISOFIX child restraint

system according UN Regulation No.

129.

All i-Size child restraint systems can

be used on any vehicle seat suitable

for i-Size, i-Size table 3 41.

Either a Top-tether strap or a support

leg must be used in addition to the

ISOFIX brackets.

i-Size child seats and vehicle seats

with i-Size approval are marked with

i-Size symbol, see illustration.

Top-tether anchors

Top-tether anchors are marked with

the symbol t for a child seat.

40 Seats, restraints

In addition to the ISOFIX brackets,

fasten the Top-tether strap to the

Top-tether anchors.

ISOFIX child restraint systems of

universal category positions are

marked in the table by IUF 3 41.

Selecting the right system

The rear seats are the most

convenient location to fasten a child

restraint system.

Children should travel facing

rearwards in the vehicle as long as

possible. This makes sure that the

child's backbone, which is still very

weak, is under less strain in the event

of an accident.

Suitable are child restraint systems

that comply with valid UN ECE

regulations. Check local laws and

regulations for mandatory use of child

restraint systems.

The following child restraints are

recommended for the following

weight classes:

●Group 0, Group 0+:

Maxi Cosi Cabriofix with or

without ISOFIX base for children

up to 13 kg

●Group I: Duo Plus with ISOFIX

and Top-tether for children from

9 kg to 18 kg

●Group II, Group III: Kidfix XP with

or without ISOFIX for children

from 15 kg to 36 kg

Ensure that the child restraint system

to be installed is compatible with the

vehicle type.

Ensure that the mounting location of

the child restraint system within the

vehicle is correct, see following

tables.

Allow children to enter and exit the

vehicle only on the side facing away

from the traffic.

When the child restraint system is not

in use, secure the seat with a seat belt

or remove it from the vehicle.

Note

Do not affix anything on the child

restraint systems and do not cover

them with any other materials.

A child restraint system which has

been subjected to stress in an

accident must be replaced.

the sensitivity of the vehicle to

cross-winds and has a

detrimental effect on vehicle

handling due to the vehicle's

higher centre of gravity.

Distribute the load evenly and

secure it properly with retaining

straps. Adjust the tyre pressure

and vehicle speed according to

the load conditions. Check and

retighten the straps frequently.

Do not drive faster than

120 km/h.

The permissible roof load is

70 kg. Do not exceed a loading

height of 40 cm. The roof load is

Engine exhaust

9Danger

Engine exhaust gases contain

poisonous carbon monoxide,

which is colourless and odourless

and could be fatal if inhaled.

If exhaust gases enter the interior

of the vehicle, open the windows.

Have the cause of the fault

rectified by a workshop.

Avoid driving with an open load

compartment, otherwise exhaust

gases could enter the vehicle.

Exhaust filter

Automatic cleaning process

The exhaust filter system filters soot

particles out of the exhaust gases.

The start of saturation of the exhaust

filter is indicated by the temporary

illumination of t or C,

accompanied by a message in the

Driver Information Centre.

As soon as the traffic conditions

permit, regenerate the filter by driving

at a vehicle speed of at least 60 km/h

until the control indicator

extinguishes.

Note

On a new vehicle, the first exhaust

filter regeneration operations may

be accompanied by a burning smell,

which is normal. Following

prolonged operation of the vehicle at

very low speed or at idle, water

vapour can be emitted at the

exhaust on acceleration. This does

not affect the behaviour of the

vehicle or the environment.

Cleaning process not possible

If t or C stays on, accompanied

by an audible signal and a message,

this indicates that the exhaust filter

additive level is too low.

The reservoir must be topped-up

without delay. Seek the assistance of

a workshop.

Catalytic converter

The catalytic converter reduces the

amount of harmful substances in the

exhaust gases.

Caution

Fuel grades other than those listed

on pages 3 185, 3 239 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.

114 Driving and operating

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

(NOx) 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.

9Warning

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.

Note

Frozen and again liquefied AdBlue is

usable without quality loss.

The typical AdBlue consumption is

approx. 0.85 l per 1000 km, but can

also be higher depending on driving

behaviour (e.g. high load or towing).

Level 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 warning level is entered

when the estimated AdBlue range

is between 2400 km and 800 km.

When switching on the ignition,

this warning will show up once

briefly with the calculated range.

Additionally, control indicator u

will illuminate and a chime will

sound. Driving is possible without

any restrictions.

2. The next warning level is entered

when the estimated AdBlue range

is below 800 km. The message

with the current range will always

be displayed when ignition is

switched on. Additionally, control

indicator u will flash and a chime

will sound. Refill AdBlue before

entering the next warning level.

3. The next warning level is entered

with a range below 100 km. The

message with the current range

will always be displayed when

ignition is switched on.

Additionally, control indicator u

will flash and a chime will sound.

Refill AdBlue as soon as possible

before the AdBlue tank is

Driving and operating 115

completely empty. Otherwise, a

restart of the engine will not be

possible.

4. The last warning level is entered

when the AdBlue tank is empty.

Restart of the engine is not

possible.

A message appears in the Driver

Information Centre. Additionally,

control indicator u will flash and

a chime will sound.

Refill the tank to a level of at least

5 l 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. The warning

messages are accompanied by the

control indicators u, C and W.

Additionally, a chime will sound.

Follow the instructions of the warning

messages. If starting is prevented,

seek the assistance of a workshop.

Refilling AdBlue

Caution

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.

Note

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 Opel dealers and other retail

outlets.

Since AdBlue has a limited

durability, check the date of expiry

before refilling.

Note

Refill the tank to a level of at least

5 l to ensure that the new AdBlue

level is being detected.

In case AdBlue refill is not

successfully detected:

1. Continuously drive the vehicle

for 10 min making sure that

vehicle speed is always higher

than 20 km/h.

2. If AdBlue refill is detected

successfully, AdBlue supply-

driven warnings or 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 be

detected by the system. In this

event, park the vehicle in a space

with a higher ambient temperature

until AdBlue is liquified.

116 Driving and operating

Note

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.

AdBlue refilling quantity 3 240.

The vehicle must be parked on a level

surface.

The filler neck for AdBlue is located

behind the fuel filler flap.

The fuel filler flap can only be opened

if the vehicle is unlocked.

1. Switch off the ignition.

2. Close all doors to avoid ammonia

fumes entering the interior of the

vehicle.

3. Release the fuel filler flap by

pushing the flap 3 186.

4. Unscrew protective cap from the

filler neck.

5. Open AdBlue canister.

6. Mount one end of the hose on the

124 Driving and operating

Electric vehicle: To optimise range,

electric engine power output is

reduced and heating is switched off.

Brakes

Antilock brake system

Antilock brake system (ABS)

prevents the wheels from locking.

ABS starts to regulate brake pressure

as soon as a wheel shows a tendency

to lock. The vehicle remains

steerable, even during hard braking.

ABS control is made apparent

through a pulse in the brake pedal

and the noise of the regulation

process.

For optimum braking, keep the brake

pedal fully depressed throughout the

braking process, despite the fact that

the pedal is pulsating. Do not reduce

the pressure on the pedal.

When braking in an emergency, the

hazard warning flashers are switched

on automatically depending on the

force of deceleration. They are

switched off automatically the first

time you accelerate.

After starting off, the system performs

a self-test which may be audible.

Control indicator i 3 72.

Fault

9Warning

If there is a fault in the ABS, the

wheels may be liable to lock due

to braking that is heavier than

normal. The advantages of ABS

are no longer available. During

hard braking, the vehicle can no

longer be steered and may

swerve.

The Traction Control system

improves driving stability when

necessary, regardless of the type of

road surface or tyre grip, by

preventing the driven wheels from

spinning.

As soon as the driven wheels starts to

spin, engine output is reduced and

the wheel spinning the most is braked

individually. This considerably

improves the driving stability of the

vehicle on slippery road surfaces.

Electronic Stability Control and the

Traction Control system are

operational after each engine start as

soon as the control indicator J

extinguishes.

When Electronic Stability Control or

the Traction Control system operates,

J flashes.

On some occasions, e.g. after

Adaptive cruise control

The adaptive cruise control is an

enhancement of the cruise control

with the additional feature of

maintaining a certain following

distance to the vehicle ahead.

Driving and operating 135

It uses radar and camera sensors to

detect the vehicles ahead. If no

vehicle is detected in the driving path,

the adaptive cruise control will

behave like a conventional cruise

control.

The adaptive cruise control

automatically decelerates the vehicle

when approaching a slower moving

vehicle. It then adjusts the vehicle

speed to follow the vehicle ahead at

the selected following distance. The

vehicle speed increases or decreases

to follow the vehicle ahead, but will

not exceed the set speed. It may

apply limited braking with activated

brake lights.

If the vehicle ahead accelerates or

changes lane, the adaptive cruise

control progressively accelerates the

vehicle to return to the stored set

speed. If the driver operates the turn

lights to overtake a slower vehicle, the

adaptive cruise control allows the

vehicle to temporarily approach the

vehicle ahead to help passing it.

However, the set speed will never be

exceeded.

The adaptive cruise control can store

set speeds over 40 km/h for manual

transmission. If the vehicle ahead is

moving too slowly and the selected

following distance cannot be

maintained anymore, a warning

chime is given and a message is

displayed in the Driver Information

Centre. The message prompts the

driver to take back control of the

vehicle. On vehicles with automatic

transmission, the system can brake

the vehicle until a full stop.

vehicle, then active cruise control is

resumed automatically.

If the stopped vehicle ahead was

stopped for a longer time and then

begins to move forward, the green

control indicator . will flash and a

warning chime will sound as a

reminder to check traffic before

resuming.

When the vehicle ahead drives away,

depress the accelerator pedal or

press i to resume adaptive cruise

control.

If the vehicle stays stopped for more

than 5 minutes or if the driver's door

is opened and the driver's seat belt is

unfastened, then the electric parking

brake is applied automatically to hold

the vehicle. Control indicator j will

illuminate. To release electric parking

brake, press the accelerator pedal.

Electric parking brake 3 125.

9Warning

When the system is deactivated or

cancelled, the vehicle will no

longer be held at a stop and can

138 Driving and operating

start moving. Be always prepared

to manually apply the brake to hold

the vehicle stationary.

Do not leave the vehicle while it is

being held at a stop by adaptive

cruise control. Always move

selector lever to park position P

and switch off the ignition before

leaving the vehicle.

Setting the following distance

When adaptive cruise control detects

a slower moving vehicle in the driving

path, it will adjust the vehicle speed to

maintain the following distance

selected by the driver.

The following distance can be set to

close (1 bar), normal (2 bars) or far (3

bars).

If the engine is running and the

adaptive cruise control is enabled

(grey) or active (green), you can

modify the following distance setting:

Press V, the current setting is

shown in the Driver Information

Centre.

Press V again to change the

following distance: The new setting is

displayed in the Driver Information

Centre.

The selected following distance is

indicated by full bars in the adaptive

cruise control page.

9Warning

The driver accepts full

responsibility for the appropriate

following distance based on traffic,

weather and visibility conditions.

Following distance must be

adjusted or the system switched

off when required by the prevailing

conditions.

Detecting the vehicle ahead

If the system detects a vehicle in the

driving path, the adaptive cruise

control symbol displayed in the Driver

Information Centre changes from -

to w.

Deactivation of the functionality

Press i, the adaptive cruise control

is in pause mode and a message is

displayed. The vehicle is driven

without adaptive cruise control.

The adaptive cruise control is

deactivated, but not disabled. The

last stored set speed remains in

memory for later usage.

The adaptive cruise control is

deactivated automatically in the

following cases:

● The brake pedal is depressed.

Driving and operating 139

● The vehicle accelerates above

180 km/h (manual and automatic

transmission) or slows down

below 40 km/h (manual

transmission).

● The electric parking brake is

applied.

● The traction control system or

electronic stability control is

deactivated or operating.

● The selector lever of automatic

transmissions is neither in D nor

in M.

● A fault is detected in the

electronic stability control or the

radar system.

● Immediately after the clutch

pedal has been depressed or a

few seconds after the clutch

pedal has been depressed

(depending on the manual

transmission).

Switching off the system

Press w, the adaptive cruise control

mode is disabled and the adaptive

cruise control indication extinguishes

in the Driver Information Centre.

Pressing 5 to activate the speed

limiter deactivates adaptive cruise

control.

Switching off the ignition deletes the

stored set speed.

Driver's attention

● Use the adaptive cruise control

carefully on bends or mountain

roads, as it can lose the vehicle

ahead and needs time to detect it

again.

● Do not use the system on

slippery roads as it can create

rapid changes in tyre traction

(wheel spinning), so that you

could lose control of the vehicle.

● Do not use the adaptive cruise

control during rain, snow or

heavy dirt, as the radar sensor

can be covered by a water film,

dust, ice or snow. This reduces or

suppresses completely the

visibility. In case of sensor

blockage, clean the sensor

cover.

● Do not use the system when the

spare wheel is in use.

System limits

9Warning

The system's automatic brake

force does not permit hard braking

and the braking level may not be

sufficient to avoid a collision.

● After a sudden lane change, the

system needs a certain time to

detect the next preceding

vehicle. So if a new vehicle is

detected, the system may

accelerate instead of braking.

● The adaptive cruise control does

ignore the oncoming traffic.

● The adaptive cruise control does

not consider pedestrians and

animals for braking and driving

off.

● The adaptive cruise control

considers stopped vehicles only

at low speed.

140 Driving and operating

● Do not use the adaptive cruise

control when towing a trailer.

● Do not use the adaptive cruise

control on roads with an incline of

more than 10%.

As the radar's field of detection is

quite narrow, it is possible that the

system may not detect:

● vehicles of reduced width, e.g.

motorcycles, scooters

● vehicles not running in the middle

of the lane

● vehicles entering a corner

● vehicles suddenly pulling out

Bends

The adaptive cruise control calculates

a predicted path based on the

centrifugal force. This predicted path

considers the current bend

characteristic, but cannot consider a

future bend change. The system may

lose the current vehicle ahead or

consider a vehicle which is not in the

actual lane. This can happen when

entering or exiting a bend or if the

bend gets stronger or weaker. If it no

longer detects any vehicle ahead,

then w will extinguish.

If the centrifugal force is too high in a

bend, the system slows down the

vehicle slightly. This braking level is

not designed to avoid spinning-off the

bend. The driver is responsible for

reducing the selected speed before

entering a bend and in general to

adapt the speed to the road type and

to existing speed limits.

Motorways

On motorways, adapt the set speed

to the situation and the weather.

Always consider that adaptive cruise

control has a limited visibility range, a

limited braking level and a certain

reaction time to verify if a vehicle is on

the driving path or not. Adaptive

cruise control may not be able to

brake the vehicle in time to avoid a

collision with a much slower vehicle or

after a lane change. This is

particularly true while driving fast or if

the visibility is reduced due to weather

conditions.

While entering or exiting a motorway,

adaptive cruise control may lose the

vehicle ahead and accelerate up to

the set speed. For this reason,

decrease the set speed before the

exit or before the entry.

Vehicle path changes

If another vehicle enters your driving

path, adaptive cruise control will first

consider the vehicle when it is

completely in your path. Be ready to

Driving and operating 141

take action and depress the brake

pedal if you need to brake more

quickly.

Hill considerations

9Warning

Do not use the adaptive cruise

control on steep hill roads.

System performance on hills depends

on vehicle speed, vehicle load, traffic

conditions and the road gradient. It

may not detect a vehicle in your path

while driving on hills. On steep hills,

you may have to use the accelerator

pedal to maintain your vehicle speed.

When going downhill you may have to

brake to maintain or reduce your

speed.

Note that applying the brake

deactivates the system.

Radar unit

The radar unit is located in the middle

of the front bumper.

9Warning

The radar unit was aligned

carefully during manufacture.

Therefore, in the event of a front-

end impact, do not use the system.

The front bumper may appear to

be intact, however the sensor

behind may be affected and react

incorrectly. After an accident,

consult a workshop to verify and

adjust the radar unit position.

9Warning

Do not use a license plate support

on the front bumper to ensure

proper radar unit functionality.

Fault

In the event of an adaptive cruise

control fault, a warning light is

illuminated in the instrument cluster

and a warning message is displayed

in the Driver Information Centre

accompanied by an audible signal.

The adaptive cruise control may not

operate correctly if traffic signs do not

comply with the Vienna Convention

on Road Signs and Signals.

Have the system checked by a dealer

or a qualified workshop.

As a safety measure, do not use the

system if the brake lights are faulty.

Do not use the system if the front

bumper is damaged.

142 Driving and operating

Active emergency braking

Active emergency braking can help to

reduce the damage and injury from

crashes with vehicles and

pedestrians directly ahead, when the

driver does not actively take action

either by manual braking or by

steering. Before the active

emergency braking applies, the driver

is warned by the forward collision

alert.

Forward collision alert 3 144.

Front pedestrian protection 3 146.

Active emergency braking can be

deactivated in the vehicle

personalisation 3 82. If deactivated,

m illuminates in the instrument

cluster. When ignition is switched on

next time, system is activated by

default.

The feature uses various inputs (e.g.

camera sensor, radar sensor) to

calculate the probability of a frontal

collision.

9Warning

This system is not intended to

replace the driver responsibility for

driving the vehicle and looking

ahead. Its function is limited to

supplemental use only to reduce

the vehicle speed before a

collision.

The system may not react to

animals. After a sudden lane

change, the system needs a

certain time to detect the next

preceding vehicle.

The driver must always be ready

to take action and apply the brakes

and steer to avoid collisions.

Functionality

Depending on the vehicle

configuration and the detected

objects, there are several operational

speed ranges.

On vehicles equipped only with front

camera, the active emergency

braking operates from 5 km/h to

80 km/h when a vehicle has been

detected.

On vehicles equipped with radar

sensor and front camera, the active

emergency braking operates from

5 km/h to 140 km/h when a vehicle

has been detected.

Active emergency braking only works

when the seat belts of the front

passengers are fastened.

The system includes:

● brake preparation system

● emergency automatic braking

● smart brake assist

● forward collision alert

● front pedestrian protection

Brake preparation system

When approaching a vehicle ahead

or a pedestrian so quickly that a

collision is likely, the brake

preparation system slightly

pressurises the brakes. This reduces

the response time, when braking is

requested.

Driving and operating 143

Emergency automatic braking

After activation of brake preparation

system and just before the imminent

collision, this function automatically

applies braking to reduce the impact

speed of the collision or prohibit a

crash.

If active emergency braking is

applied, m flashes in the instrument

cluster.

Emergency automatic braking is

designed to react on vehicles,

pedestrians or cyclist ahead.

Forward collision alert 3 144.

Front pedestrian protection 3 146.

Below a speed of 30 km/h,

emergency automatic braking may

slow down the vehicle to a complete

stop. If the speed exceeds 30 km/h,

emergency automatic braking

reduces the speed. However, the

driver must apply the brake to come

to a complete stop.

● Automatic transmission: If the

vehicle comes to a complete

stop, automatic braking is

maintained for a certain time.

Keep the brake pedal depressed

to prevent the vehicle from

starting off again.

● Manual transmission: If the

vehicle comes to a complete

stop, the engine may stall.

Cruise control and adaptive cruise

control will be deactivated when an

emergency automatic braking occurs.

9Warning

Do not rely on the system to brake

the vehicle. Emergency automatic

braking will not brake outside of its

operating speed range and only

responds to detected vehicles and

pedestrians.

Smart brake assist

If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently

to avoid a collision, this system will

supplement the braking. This

assistance will only be provided if the

driver presses the brake pedal.

Smart brake assist will automatically

disengage when the brake pedal is

released.

Forward collision alert 3 144.

Front pedestrian protection 3 146.

System limitations

In some cases, the active emergency

braking system may provide an

automatic braking in situations that

seem to be unnecessary, for instance

in parking garages, due to various

types of objects, i.e., traffic signs or

vehicles in another lane. Firmly apply

the accelerator pedal to override the

automatic braking if the situation and

the surroundings permit.

In the following cases, active

emergency braking performance

might be limited:

● driving on winding or hilly roads

● detecting vehicles with a trailer,

tractors, muddy vehicles, etc.

● detecting a vehicle when weather

limits visibility, such as in fog,

rain, or snow

● driving during nighttime

144 Driving and operating

● the sensor in the windscreen or

the radar unit behind the front

bumper is blocked by snow, ice,

slush, mud, dirt or by foreign

objects, e.g. stickers

● the windscreen is damaged

● the bumper is damaged

Complete attention is always required

while driving, and be ready to take

action to avoid crashes.

We recommend to deactivate the

system in the vehicle personalisation

in the following cases:

● when towing a trailer or caravan

● when carrying long objects on

roof bars or a roof rack

● when the vehicle is being towed

with the engine running

● when the vehicle is fitted with

snow chains

● when a spare wheel is fitted that

is smaller than the other wheels

● before using an automatic car

wash with the engine running

● before placing the vehicle on a

rolling road in a workshop

● if the windscreen has been

damaged close to the camera

● if the front bumper has been

damaged

● if the brake lights are not working

Fault

In case the system requires a service,

a message is displayed in the Driver

Information Centre.

If the system does not work properly,

vehicle messages are displayed in

the Driver Information Centre.

Vehicle messages 3 81.

Forward collision alert

The forward collision alert may help to

avoid or reduce the harm caused by

front-end crashes.

The forward collision alert uses the

front camera in the windscreen and

depending on the vehicle

configuration a radar unit located

behind the front bumper to detect a

vehicle directly ahead, in the path.

If a vehicle directly ahead is

approached too quickly, a warning

chime sounds and a message is

displayed in the Driver Information

Centre.

Driving and operating 145

9Warning

Forward collision alert is just a

warning system and does not

apply the brakes. When

approaching a vehicle ahead too

rapidly, it may not provide you

enough time to avoid a collision.

The driver accepts full

responsibility for the appropriate

following distance based on traffic,

weather and visibility conditions.

The complete attention of the

driver is always required while

driving. The driver must always be

ready to take action and apply the

brakes.

Activation

The forward collision alert operates

from 5 km/h to vehicle's maximum

speed.

Alerting the driver

The driver is warned by following

alerts:

● A warning message is displayed

in the Driver Information Center,

when the distance to the vehicle

ahead gets too small.

● A warning message is displayed

in the Driver Information Center

and a warning chime sounds,

when a collision is imminent and

immediate driver's action is

required.

● In some cases, the system

performs a short braking, when a

collision is imminent and

immediate driver's action is

required.

Selecting the alert sensitivity

Three alert sensitivities can be

selected in the settings of the active

emergency braking within the vehicle

personalisation 3 82.

The chosen setting will be memorised

when the ignition has been switched

off. The alert timing will vary based on

selected alert setting.

Deactivation

The system can only be deactivated

by deactivating the active emergency

braking in the vehicle personalisation

3 82. When ignition is switched on

next time, system is activated.

System limitations

Forward collision alert is designed to

warn on vehicles, pedestrians and

cyclists, but may react also to other

objects.

In the following cases, forward

collision alert may not detect a vehicle

ahead or sensor performance is

limited:

● driving on winding or hilly roads

● driving during nighttime

● weather limits visibility, such as

fog, rain, or snow

● the sensor in the windscreen or

the radar unit behind the front

bumper are blocked by snow, ice,

slush, mud, dirt etc.

146 Driving and operating

● the windscreen is damaged or

affected by foreign objects, e.g.

stickers

● the bumper is damaged or

affected by foreign objects, e.g.

license plate support

Front pedestrian protection

Front pedestrian protection may help

to avoid or reduce the harm caused

by front-end crashes with pedestrians

when driving forward.

The system uses the front camera in

the windscreen and depending on the

vehicle configuration a radar unit in

the front bumper to detect a

pedestrian directly ahead in the path.

9Warning

Do not use a license plate support

on the front bumper to ensure

proper radar unit functionality.

Front pedestrian protection can

detect and alert to pedestrians in a

forward gear at speeds between

5 km/h and 60 km/h. Additionally, it

can automatically brake the vehicle.

During nighttime driving, system

performance is limited.

9Danger

Front pedestrian braking does not

provide an alert or automatically

brake the vehicle, unless it detects

a pedestrian.

The system may not detect

pedestrians, including children,

when the pedestrian is not directly

ahead, not fully visible, not

standing upright, or when part of a

group.

The system can only be deactivated

by deactivating the active emergency

braking in the vehicle personalisation

3 82. When ignition is switched on

next time, system is activated.

9Warning

Under certain circumstances,

various reflective surfaces on

objects or clothing as well as

external noise sources may cause

the system to fail to detect

obstacles.

Special attention must be paid to

low obstacles which can damage

the lower part of the bumper.

Driving and operating 163

Caution

Performance of the system can be

reduced when sensors are

covered, e.g. by ice or snow.

Performance of the parking assist

system can be reduced due to

heavy loading.

Special conditions apply if there

are taller vehicles in the vicinity

(e.g. off-road vehicles, mini vans,

vans). Object identification and

correct distance indication in the

upper part of these vehicles

cannot be guaranteed.

Objects with a very small reflection

cross-section, e.g. objects of

narrow size or soft materials, may

not be detected by the system.

Parking assist systems do not

detect objects outside the

detection range.

Note

It is possible that the sensor detects

a non-existing object caused by

echo disturbance from external

acoustic noise or mechanical

misalignments (sporadic false

warnings may occur).

Make sure that the front number

plate is properly mounted (not bent

and no gaps to the bumper on the left

or right side) and the sensors are

firmly in place. Do not use a license

plate support!

Automatic parking assist system

may not respond to changes in the

available parking space after

initiating a parking manoeuvre. The

system may recognise an entry, a

gateway, a courtyard or even a

crossing as a parking slot. Take care

regarding the availability of the

suggested parking slot.

Surface irregularities, e.g. on

construction zones, are not detected

by the system. The driver accepts

responsibility.

Side blind spot alert

Side blind spot alert assist helps to

avoid crashes due to unintentional

lane departures when an object is

detected within a specified blind spot

zone.

The system displays a visual alert in

each exterior mirror, when detecting

objects that may not be visible in the

interior and exterior mirrors.

Side blind spot alert uses some of the

advanced parking assist sensors

which are located in the front and rear

bumper on both sides of the vehicle.

9Warning

Side blind spot alert is only a lane

changing aid and does not replace

driver vision.

Side blind spot alert does not

detect:

● Vehicles outside the side blind

zones which may be rapidly

approaching.

● Pedestrians or animals.

● Non-moving objects, e.g.

stationary vehicles, street

lights, road signs, etc.

Failure to use proper care when

changing lanes may result in

damage to the vehicle, injury, or

death. Always check the outside

164 Driving and operating

and rearview mirrors, glance over

your shoulder, and use the turn

signal before changing lanes.

Activation

The system can be activated via the

vehicle settings menu in the Info

Display.

Info Display 3 78.

Functionality

When the system detects a vehicle in

the side blind zone while driving

forwards, an LED will illuminate in the

relevant exterior mirror.

The LED comes on immediately when

your vehicle is being passed.

The LED comes on after a delay when

your vehicle is passing another

vehicle slowly.

Operation conditions

The following conditions must be

fulfilled for proper operation:

● all vehicles are moving in the

same direction and in adjacent

lanes

● depending on the configuration of

the vehicle, the speed of your

other objects

No alert will be given in the following

situations:

● in the presence of non-moving

objects, e.g. parked vehicles,

barriers, street lamps, road signs

● in very dense traffic, when

moving vehicles might be

confused with a stationary object

● with vehicles moving in the

opposite direction

● driving on a winding road or a

sharp corner

● when passing or being passed by

a very long vehicle, e.g. lorry,

coach, which is at the same time

detected at the rear in the blind

spot angle and present in the

driver's forward field of vision

● when passing too quickly

Driving and operating 165

or a qualified workshop to have the

system checked.

Active side blind spot detection

In addition to the regular side blind

spot alert, the active side blind spot

detection corrects the vehicle's

trajectory by turning the steering

wheel gently back into lane when an

object is detected within a specified

blind spot zone. The system is only

active when side blind spot alert and

lane keep assist are activated as well.

Lane keep assist 3 169.

Active side blind spot detection

operates when the vehicle speed is

between 65 and 140 km/h.

Functionality

When steering towards the detected

vehicle is attemped, the driver will

then notice a turning movement of the

steering wheel towards the opposite

side. Turn steering wheel in the same

direction if the system does not steer

sufficiently.

The system also intervenes even if

the turn lights have been activated.

Rear view camera

The rear view camera assists the

driver when reversing by displaying a

view of the area behind the vehicle.

The view of the camera is displayed

in the Info Display.

9Warning

The rear view camera does not

replace driver vision. Note that

objects that are outside the

camera's field of view and the

parking assist sensors, e.g. below

the bumper or underneath the

vehicle, are not displayed.

Do not reverse or park the vehicle

using only the rear view camera.

Always check the surrounding of

the vehicle before driving.

Lane keep assist

Lane keep assist supports the driver

to avoid unintended leaving of the

lane. The front camera observes road

edges, as well as the lane markings

170 Driving and operating

between which the vehicle is driving.

If the vehicle approaches a road edge

or a lane marking, the steering wheel

is gently turned to position so that the

vehicle turns back into the lane. The

driver will then notice a turning

movement of the steering wheel. Turn

steering wheel in same direction, if

the system does not steer sufficiently.

Turn steering wheel gently into

opposite direction, if lane change is

intended.

When the system steers to correct the

trajectory of the vehicle, L flashes

yellow in the instrument cluster.

Unintended lane departure is not

assumed by the system when the turn

lights are operated and during few

seconds after turn lights have been

switched off.

If the system detects that the steering

wheel is not held permanently, it

interrupts the correction. A warning

message in the Driver Information

Centre accompanied by a warning

chime alerts when immediate driver´s

action is required.

If the vehicle is equipped with active

side blind spot detection, the

interruption of the lane correction

might be cancelled.

Side blind spot alert 3 163.

Note

The system may be switched off if it

detects lanes which are too narrow,

too wide or too curved.

Following preconditions have to be

fulfilled:

● vehicle speed must be between

65 km/h and 180 km/h

● the driver must hold the steering

wheel

● the turn lights are not activated

● the electronic stability control is

activated and not in operation

● the vehicle is not connected to a

trailer or a bicycle carrier

● normal driving behaviour (system

detects dynamic driving style, i.e.

pressure on the brake or

accelerator pedal)

● roads with good lane markings

● no spare wheel is used

● the vehicle is not driven in a tight

corner

Activation

If the system is activated, the LED in

the button j is not illuminated. To

activate the system when the system

is deactivated, press j.

Deactivation

To deactivate the system, press j.

Driving and operating 171

Fault

In the event of a fault, L and C

appear in the instrument panel,

accompanied by a display message

and a warning chime. Seek the

assistance of a workshop.

System limitations

The system performance may be

affected by:

● a dirty or foggy windscreen or if

the windscreen is affected by

foreign objects, e.g. stickers

● close vehicles ahead

● banked roads

● winding or hilly roads

● road edges

● sudden lighting changes

● adverse environmental

conditions, e.g. heavy rain or

snow

● vehicle modifications, e.g. tyres

Switch off the system if the system is

disturbed by tar marks, shadows,

road cracks, temporary or

construction lane markings, or other

road imperfections.

9Warning

Always keep your attention on the

road and maintain proper vehicle

position within the lane, otherwise

vehicle damage, injury or death

could occur.

Lane keep assist does not

continuously steer the vehicle.

The system may not keep the

vehicle in the lane or give an alert,

even if a lane marking is detected.

The steering of the lane keep

assist may not be sufficient to

avoid a lane departure.

The system may not detect hands-

off driving due to external

influences like road condition and

surface and weather. The driver

has full responsibility to control the

vehicle and is always required to

keep the hands on the steering

wheel while driving.

Using the system while towing a

trailer or on slippery roads could

cause loss of control of the vehicle

and a crash. Switch the system off.

Advanced lane keep assist

9Warning

The system assists the driver in

managing the steering,

acceleration and braking within

the limits of the laws of physics

and the capabilities of the vehicle.

Some road infrastructure

elements or vehicles present on

the road may not be properly seen

or may be poorly interpreted by the

camera and radar, which may lead

to an unexpected change in

direction, a lack of steering

correction and/or inappropriate

management of the acceleration

or braking.

172 Driving and operating

Advanced lane keep assist is an

enhancement of the lane keep assist

system.

The activated system observes the

lane markings by using the camera

located at the top of the windscreen.

It steers the vehicle inside the

detected lane. The driver will notice a

turning movement of the steering

wheel.

Thus, the current position of the

vehicle within the lane is kept. This

position is not necessarily the centre

of the lane.

In the case that the vehicle is driving

at the outer edge of the lane, the

system corrects the trajectory

smoothly towards the centre of the

currently driven lane when a

determined speed has been

exceeded. Again, the driver will notice

a turning movement of the steering

wheel.

When the vehicle is steered by the

system, O illuminates green in the

instrument cluster.

However, the control of the vehicle

can be taken over at any time by the

driver. Therefore, the driver needs to

apply some additional force when

turning the steering wheel.

If the system detects that the driver is

not holding the wheel firmly enough,

it triggers a series of gradual alerts. If

the interruption takes too long, the

system will be deactivated. O

extinguishes in the instrument cluster.

The system has to be reactivated

again by the driver.

Advanced lane keep assist operates

only in combination with adaptive

cruise control.

Adaptive cruise control 3 134.

Required preconditions

● Adaptive cruise control must be

activated.

● The driver must hold the steering

wheel.

● The turn lights are not activated.

surface even if the driver is holding

the steering wheel properly.

Deactivate the system if the system is

disturbed by tar marks, shadows,

road cracks, temporary or

construction lane markings, or other

road imperfections.

174 Driving and operating

9Warning

Always keep your attention on the

road and maintain proper vehicle

position within the lane, otherwise

vehicle damage, injury or death

could occur.

The system may not keep the

vehicle in the lane or give an alert,

even if a lane marking is detected.

The steering of the advanced lane

keep assist may not be sufficient

to avoid a lane departure.

The system may not detect hands-

off driving due to external

influences (road condition and

surface, weather etc). The driver

has full responsibility to control the

vehicle and is always required to

keep the hands on the steering

wheel while driving.

Using the system while towing a

trailer or on slippery roads could

cause loss of control of the vehicle

and a crash. Switch the system off.

Driver alert

The driver alert system monitores the

driving time and the vigilance of the

driver. Monitoring the vigilance of the

driver is based on the trajectory

variations of the vehicle compared to

the lane markings.

The system cannot replace the need

for vigilance on the part of the driver.

Taking a break is recommended as

soon as feeling tired or at least every

2 hours. Do not drive when feeling

tired.

Activation or Deactivation

The system monitors the driver's level

of vigilance at speeds above

65 km/h. A camera at the top of the

windscreen detects variations in

trajectory compared to the lane

markings.

If the trajectory of the vehicle

suggests a certain level of

drowsiness or inattention by the

driver, the system triggers the first

level of alert. The driver is notified by

a message and an audible signal is

given.

After three first level alerts, the

system triggers a new alert with a

message, accompanied by a more

pronounced audible signal.

Driving and operating 175

In certain driving conditions (poor

road surface or strong winds), the

system may give alerts independent

of the driver's level of vigilance.

The driver drowsiness detection is

reinitialised when the ignition has

been switched off for a few minutes or

the speed remains below 65 km/h for

a few minutes.

System limitations

In the following situations, the system

may not operate properly or even not

operate at all:

● poor visibility caused by

inadequate lighting of the

roadway, falling snow, heavy

rain, dense fog etc.

● dazzle caused by headlamps of

an oncoming vehicles, low sun,

reflections on damp roads,

leaving a tunnel, alternating

shade and light etc.

● windscreen area in front of the

camera covered by dirt, snow,

stickers etc.

● no lane markings detected or

multiple lane markings due to

roadworks

● close vehicles ahead

● winding roads or narrow roads

Charging

General information

9Warning

Persons with a pacemaker should

consult a doctor for possible

precautions.

Charging the vehicle's high voltage

battery depends upon several factors:

● high voltage battery of the vehicle

● internal onboard charger (OBC)

● external charging device

● charging cable

The charging cable connects the

vehicle's high voltage battery with an

external charging device providing

electric power. This may be a

176 Driving and operating

domestic electrical outlet, a

Green'Up socket, a wall box or a

public charging station.

The high voltage battery can be

charged with direct current (DC) only.

When charging from a domestic

electrical outlet, a wall box or an

alternating current (AC) charging

station, AC has to be converted into

DC. This is done by the vehicle's

onboard charger. The onboard

charger is available with 7.4 kW

(single-phase) and 11 kW (3-phase).

If the vehicle is charged at a public DC

charging station, no DC conversion is

required. The high voltage battery

can be directly charged with DC

provided by the DC charging station.

The speed of charging the vehicle's

high voltage battery depends upon

the weakest element of the charging

chain. To achieve the maximum

charging speed, charging cable and

charging device have to be attuned to

each other.

Note

Make sure that the charging cable

used fits to the vehicle's onboard

charger.

Charging types 3 176.

Charging cable 3 184.

Charging types

There are different types of charging

the vehicle's high voltage battery.

Charging at wallboxes

A wallbox is a charging unit for private

households. It provides a charging

cable which has to be connected to

the vehicle's charging port. Some

wallboxes do not provide a charging

cable. In this case, a separate

charging cable is required which has

to be connected to both the wallbox

and the charging port of the vehicle.

Charging time may take approx. 5

hours with a charging power of 11 kW

and 15 hours with a charging power

of 3.7 kW.

Charging at charging stations

Charging stations may provide

alternating current (AC) or direct

current (DC). Charging time may vary

depending on the charging station,

DC charging stations provide the

fastest charging. To charge the

vehicle's battery, the charging cable

of the charging station has to be

connected to the charging port of the

vehicle.

● AC charging station: Charging

time may take approx. 5 hours

with a charging power of 11 kW

and 7.5 hours with a charging

power of 7.4 kW.

Driving and operating 177

● DC charging station: Up to

approx. 80% of battery capacity

may be charged in approx. 30

minutes at a charging power of

100 kW.

Charging at domestic electrical

outlets

The vehicle's high voltage battery can

be charged at a domestic electrical

outlet. Connect the charging cable to

the vehicle's charging port and to the

domestic electrical outlet.

Charging time may take approx. 30

hours with a charging power of 1.8

kW.

Charging cable

Depending on the charging type,

different charging cables are used.

3. Wall plug

Basic domestic cables (mode 2) are

used for charging at domestic

electrical outlets. A basic domestic

cable (mode 2) consists of a vehicle

plug, a control box and a plug for the

domestic electrical outlet. The control

box has an intergrated charge

controller and several LEDs

indicating the charging status.

Enhanced domestic cables (mode 2)

are similar to basic domestic cables

(mode 2). However, the charging

performance of enhanced domestic

cables (mode 2 charging) is better

than the charging performance of

basic domestic cables (mode 2).

Enhanced domestic cables (mode 2)

are used at Green'Up sockets which

have to be installed by a certified

electrician at the customer's site.

Fuel

Fuel for petrol engines

Only use unleaded fuel that complies

with European standard EN 228 or

E DIN 51626-1 or equivalent.

The engine is capable of running with

fuel that contains up to 10% ethanol

(e.g. named E10).

Use fuel with the recommended

octane rating. A lower octane rating

can reduce engine power and torque

and slightly increases fuel

consumption.

Caution

Do not use fuel or fuel additives

that contain metallic compounds

such as manganese-based

additives. This may cause engine

damage.

Caution

Use of fuel with a lower octane

rating than the lowest possible

rating could lead to uncontrolled

combustion and engine damage.

The engine specific requirements

regarding octane rating are given in

the engine data overview 3 239. A

country-specific label at the fuel filler

flap can supersede the requirement.

In certain countries, the use of a

particular fuel, e.g. a specific octane

rating, may be required to ensure

proper engine operation.

Fuel for diesel engines

The Diesel engines are compatible

with bio-fuels that conform to current

and future European standards and

and can be obtained from filling

stations:

Diesel fuel that meets standard

EN590 mixed with a biofuel that

meets standard EN14214 (possibly

containing up to 7% Fatty Acid Methyl

Ester).

186 Driving and operating

Diesel fuel that meets standard

EN16734 mixed with a biofuel that

meets standard EN14214 (possibly

containing up to 10% Fatty Acid

Methyl Ester).

Paraffinic Diesel fuel that meets

standard EN15940 mixed with a

biofuel that meets standard

EN14214 (possibly containing up to

7% Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).

The use of B20 or B30 fuel meeting

standard EN16709 is possible in your

Diesel engines. However, this use,

even occasional, requires strict

application of the special servicing

conditions referred to as "Arduous

conditions".

For more information, contact a

dealer or a qualified workshop.

Caution

The use of any other type of (bio)

fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure

or diluted, domestic fuel etc.) is

strictly prohibited (risk of damage

to the engine and fuel system).

Note

The only Diesel additives authorised

for use are those that meet the

B715000 standard.

Low temperature operation

At temperatures below 0 °C, some

diesel products with biodiesel blends

may clog, freeze or gel, which may

affect the fuel supply system. Starting

and engine operation may not work

properly. Make sure to fill winter

grade diesel fuel at ambient

temperatures below 0 °C.

Arctic grade diesel fuel can be used

at extremely low temperatures below

-20 °C. Using this fuel grade in warm

or hot climates is not recommended

and may cause engine stalling, poor

starting or damage on the fuel

injection system.

Refuelling

9Danger

Before refuelling, switch off

ignition and any external heaters

with combustion chambers.

Follow the operating and safety

instructions of the filling station

when refuelling.

9Danger

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.

Driving and operating 187

A label with symbols at the fuel filler

flap is indicating the allowed fuel

types. In Europe the pump nozzles of

the filling stations are marked with

these symbols. Refuel only the

allowed fuel type.

Caution

In case of misfuelling, do not

switch on ignition.

Fuel filler flap is located at left rear

side of vehicle.

The fuel filler flap can only be opened

if the vehicle is unlocked. Release the

fuel filler flap by pushing the flap.

Petrol and diesel refuelling

To open, turn the cap slowly

anticlockwise.

The fuel filler cap can be attached to

the hook on the fuel filler flap.

Place the nozzle in straight position to

the filler neck and press with slight

force to insert.

To refuel, switch on pump nozzle.

After the automatic cut-off, the tank

can be topped up by operating the

pump nozzle a maximum of two more

times.

Caution

Wipe off any overflowing fuel

immediately.

To close, turn the fuel filler cap

clockwise until it clicks.

Close the flap and allow it to engage.

Fuel filler cap

Only use genuine fuel filler caps.

Diesel-engined vehicles have special

fuel filler caps.

188 Driving and operating

Trailer hitch

General information

Only use towing equipment that has

been approved for your vehicle.

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 lamp outage

when only a single 5 W lamp 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 ball

bar 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, lubricate

the 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 80 km/h. A maximum speed

of 100 km/h 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 3 242.

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 gradients

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

reduced when driving on roads with

slight inclines (less than 8%, e.g.

motorways).

Driving and operating 189

The permissible gross train weight

must not be exceeded. This weight is

specified on the identification plate

3 235.

Vertical coupling load

The vertical coupling load is the load

exerted by the trailer on the coupling

ball. It can be varied by changing the

weight distribution when loading the

trailer.

The maximum permissible vertical

coupling load (55 kg) is specified on

the towing equipment identification

plate and in the vehicle documents.

Always aim for the maximum vertical

coupling load, especially in the case

of heavy trailers. The vertical coupling

load should never fall below 25 kg.

Rear axle load

When the trailer is coupled and the

towing vehicle fully loaded, the

permissible rear axle load (see

identification plate or vehicle

documents) may be exceeded by

60 kg, the gross vehicle weight rating

must not be exceeded. If the

permissible rear axle load is

exceeded, a maximum speed of

100 km/h applies.

Vehicle care 211

Wheels and tyres

Tyre condition, wheel condition

Drive over edges slowly and at right

angles if possible. Driving over sharp

edges can cause tyre and wheel

damage. Do not trap tyres on the kerb

when parking.

Regularly check the wheels for

damage. Seek the assistance of a

workshop in the event of damage or

unusual wear.

Winter tyres

Winter tyres improve driving safety at

temperatures below 7 °C and should

therefore be fitted on all wheels.

In accordance with country-specific

regulations, affix the speed sticker in

the driver's field of view.

All tyre sizes are permitted as winter

tyres 3 242.

Tyre designations

E.g. 225/55 R 18 98 V

225 : tyre width, mm

55 : cross-section ratio (tyre height

to tyre width), %

R: belt type: Radial

RF : type: RunFlat

18 : wheel diameter, inches

98 : load index e.g. 98 is equivalent

to 750 kg

V: speed code letter

Speed code letter:

Q: up to 160 km/h

S: up to 180 km/h

T: up to 190 km/h

H: up to 210 km/h

V: up to 240 km/h

W: up to 270 km/h

Choose a tyre appropriate for the

maximum speed of your vehicle.

The maximum speed is achievable at

kerb weight with driver (75 kg) plus

125 kg payload. Optional equipment

could reduce the maximum speed of

the vehicle.

Directional tyres

Directional tyres should be mounted

so that they rotate in the correct

direction. The proper rotation

direction is indicated by a symbol

(e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.

Tyre pressure

Check the pressure of cold tyres at

least every 14 days and before any

long journey. Do not forget the spare

wheel. This also applies to vehicles

with tyre deflation detection system.

Tyre pressure 3 242.

212 Vehicle care

The tyre pressure information label

on the right door frame indicates the

original equipment tyres and the

correspondent tyre pressures.

The tyre pressure data refers to cold

tyres. It applies to summer and winter

tyres.

Always inflate the spare tyre to the

pressure specified for full load.

Incorrect tyre pressures will impair

safety, vehicle handling, comfort and

fuel economy and will increase tyre

wear.

Tyre pressures differ depending on

various options. For the correct tyre

pressure value, follow the procedure

below:

1. Identify the engine identifier code.

Engine data 3 239.

2. Identify the respective tyre.

The tyre pressure tables show all

possible tyre combinations 3 242.

For the tyres approved for your

vehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate of

Conformity provided with your vehicle

or other national registration

documents.

The driver is responsible for correct

adjustment of tyre pressure.

9Warning

If the pressure is too low, this can

result in considerable tyre warm-

up and internal damage, leading to

tread separation and even to tyre

blow-out at high speeds.

9Warning

For specific tyres the

recommended tyre pressure as

shown in the tyre pressure table

may exceed the maximum tyre

pressure as indicated on the tyre.

Never exceed the maximum tyre

pressure as indicated on the tyre.

Temperature dependency

The tyre pressure depends on the

temperature of the tyre. During

driving, tyre temperature and

pressure increase. Tyre pressure

values provided on the tyre

information label and tyre pressure

chart are valid for cold tyres, which

means at 20 °C.

The pressure increases by nearly

10 kPa for a 10 °C temperature

increase. This must be considered

when warm tyres are checked.

Tyre deflation detection

system

The tyre deflation detection system

continually checks the rotation speed

of all four wheels and warns on low

tyre pressure condition once vehicle

is driving. This is achieved by

comparing tyre rolling circumference

with reference values and further

signals.

If a tyre loses pressure the control

indicator w illuminates and a warning

message is displayed in the Driver

Information Centre.

Control indicator w 3 74.

In this case reduce speed, avoid

sharp cornering and strong braking.

Stop at next safe opportunity and

check tyre pressure.

Vehicle care 213

After adjusting tyre pressure initialise

system to extinguish the control

indicator and restart system.

If the failure continues to be

displayed, contact a workshop. The

system is inoperable when the ABS or

Electronic Stability Control has a

malfunction or a temporary spare

wheel is used. Once the tyre has been

refitted, check the tyre pressure with

cold tyres and initialise the system.

Caution

Deflation detection system warns

just about low tyre pressure

condition and does not replace

regular tyre maintenance by the

driver.

System initialisation

After tyre pressure correction or

wheel change, the system must be

initialised to learn new circumference

reference values:

1. Always ensure that all four tyres

have correct tyre pressure

3 242.

2. Apply parking brake.

3. Initialise the system via the Info

Display 3 78.

4. Reset is confirmed by pop-up

indication.

After initialisation system

automatically calibrates to new tyre

pressures during driving. After longer

drive the system will adopt and

monitor new pressures.

Always check tyre pressure with cold

tyres.

System has to be reinitialised when:

● Tyre pressure has been changed

● Load condition has been

changed

● Wheels have been swapped or

exchanged

The system will not warn

instantaneously on a tyre blow out or

a rapid deflation. This is due to

required calculation time.

Tread depth

Check tread depth at regular

intervals.

Tyres should be replaced for safety

reasons at a tread depth of 2-3 mm

(4 mm for winter tyres).

For safety reasons, it is

recommended that the tread depth of

the tyres on one axle should not vary

by more than 2 mm.

The legally permissible minimum

tread depth (1.6 mm) has been

reached when the tread has worn

down as far as one of the tread wear

214 Vehicle care

indicators (TWI). Their position is

indicated by markings on the

sidewall.

If there is more wear at the front than

the rear, swap round front wheels and

rear wheels periodically. Ensure that

the direction of rotation of the wheels

remains the same.

Tyres age, even if they are not used.

We recommend tyre replacement

every 6 years.

Changing tyre and wheel

size

If tyres of a different size than those

fitted at the factory are used, it may be

necessary to reprogramme the tyre

deflation detection system and make

other vehicle modifications.

Tyre deflation detection system

3 212.

Have the label with tyre pressures

replaced.

9Warning

The use of unsuitable tyres or

wheels may lead to accidents and

will invalidate the vehicle

operating permit.

Wheel covers

Wheel covers and tyres that are

factory approved for the respective

vehicle and comply with all of the

relevant wheel and tyre combination

requirements must be used.

If the wheel covers and tyres used are

not factory approved, the tyres must

not have a rim protection ridge.

Wheel covers must not impair brake

cooling.

9Warning

Use of unsuitable tyres or wheel

covers could lead to sudden

pressure loss and thereby

accidents.

Vehicles with steel wheels: When

using locking wheel nuts, do not

attach wheel covers.

Tyre chains

Tyre chains are only permitted on the

front wheels.

Always use fine mesh chains that add

no more than 9 mm to the tyre tread

and the inboard sides (including chain

lock).

9Warning

Damage may lead to tyre blowout.

Vehicle care 215

Tyre chains are permitted on tyres of

size 185/65R15 and 195/55R16.

Temporary spare wheel

The use of tyre chains is not permitted

on the temporary spare wheel.

Tyre repair kit

Minor damage to the tyre tread can be

repaired with the tyre repair kit.

Do not remove foreign bodies from

the tyres.

Tyre damage exceeding 4 mm or that

is at tyre's sidewall cannot be repaired

with the tyre repair kit.

9Warning

Do not drive faster than 80 km/h.

Do not use for a lengthy period.

Steering and handling may be

affected.

10 minutes, stop and check tyre

pressure. Screw compressor air

hose directly onto tyre valve when

doing this. Fill tyre as described

before. Drain excess tyre

pressure with the button on the air

hose.

If tyre pressure hasn't decreased

under 200 kPa (2 bar), set it to the

correct value 3 242. Otherwise

the vehicle must not be used.

Seek assistance of a workshop.

Repeat the checking procedure

once more after driving further

10 km but no more than

10 minutes to check that there is

no more loss of pressure.

If the tyre pressure has fallen

below 200 kPa (2 bar), the vehicle

must not be used. Seek the

assistance of a workshop.

17. Stow away tyre repair kit in load

compartment.

Appearance care

Exterior care

Locks

The locks are lubricated at the factory

using a high quality lock cylinder

grease. Use a de-icing agent only

when absolutely necessary, as this

has a degreasing effect and impairs

lock function. After using a de-icing

agent, have the locks regreased by a

workshop.

Washing

The paintwork of your vehicle is

exposed to environmental influences.

Bird droppings, dead insects, resin,

pollen and the like should be cleaned

off immediately, as they contain

aggressive constituents which can

cause paint damage.

If using a vehicle wash, comply with

the vehicle wash manufacturer's

instructions. The windscreen wiper

and rear window wiper must be

Vehicle care 227

switched off. Remove antenna and

external accessories such as roof

racks etc.

If you wash your vehicle by hand,

make sure that the insides of the

wheel housings are also thoroughly

rinsed out.

Clean edges and folds on opened

doors and the bonnet as well as the

areas they cover.

Clean bright metal mouldings with a

cleaning solution approved for

aluminium to avoid damages.

Caution

Always use a cleaning agent with

a pH value of 4 to 9.

Do not use cleaning agents on hot

surfaces.

Do 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.

Do not use hard objects to remove

spots of tar. Use tar removal spray on

painted surfaces.

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

Polishing is necessary only if the paint

has become dull or if solid deposits

have become attached to it.

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 cleaner

and 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.

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.

228 Vehicle care

Paintwork damage

Rectify minor paintwork damage with

a 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.

Bitumen / rubber materials could

damage the PVC coating. Have

underbody work carried out by a

workshop.

Before and after winter, wash the

underbody and have the protective

wax coating checked.

Towing equipment

Do not clean the coupling ball bar with

a steam-jet or high-pressure jet

cleaner.

Interior care

Interior and upholstery

Only clean the vehicle interior,

including the instrument panel fascia

and panelling, with a dry cloth or

interior cleaner.

Clean the leather upholstery with

clear water and a soft cloth. In case of

heavy soiling, use leather care.

The instrument cluster and the

displays should only be cleaned using

a soft damp cloth. If necessary use a

weak soap solution.

Clean fabric upholstery with a

vacuum cleaner and brush. Remove

stains with an upholstery cleaner.

Clothing fabrics may not be

colourfast. This could cause visible

discolourations, especially on light-

coloured upholstery. Removable

stains and discolourations should be

cleaned as soon as possible.

Clean seat belts with lukewarm water

or interior cleaner.

Caution

Close Velcro fasteners as open

Velcro fasteners on clothing could

damage seat upholstery.

The same applies to clothing with

sharp-edged objects, like zips or

belts or studded jeans.

Plastic and rubber parts

Plastic and rubber parts can be

cleaned with the same cleaner as

used to clean the body. Use interior

cleaner if necessary. Do not use any

other agent. Avoid solvents and petrol

in particular. Do not use high-

pressure jet cleaners.

Recommended fluids and

lubricants

Only use products that meet the

recommended specifications.

9Warning

Operating materials are

hazardous and could be

poisonous. Handle with care. Pay

attention to information given on

the containers.

Engine oil

Engine oil is identified by its quality

and its viscosity. Quality is more

important than viscosity when

selecting which engine oil to use. The

oil quality ensures e.g. engine

cleanliness, wear protection and oil

aging control, whereas viscosity

grade gives information on the oil's

thickness over a temperature range.

Select the appropriate engine oil

based on its quality and on the

minimum ambient temperature

3 237.

Topping up engine oil

Caution

In case of any spilled oil, wipe it up

and dispose it properly.

Engine oils of different manufacturers

and brands can be mixed as long as

they comply with the required engine

oil quality and viscosity.

Use of engine oils for all petrol

engines with only ACEA quality is

prohibited, since it can cause engine

damage under certain operating

conditions.

Select the appropriate engine oil

based on its quality and on the

minimum ambient temperature

3 237.

Additional engine oil additives

The use of additional engine oil

additives could cause damage and

invalidate the warranty.

Engine oil viscosity grades

The SAE viscosity grade gives

information of the thickness of the oil.

Multigrade oil is indicated by two

figures, e.g. SAE 5W-30. The first

figure, followed by a W, indicates the

low temperature viscosity and the

second figure the high temperature

viscosity.

Select the appropriate viscosity grade

depending on the minimum ambient

temperature 3 237.

All of the recommended viscosity

grades are suitable for high ambient

temperatures.

Coolant and antifreeze

Use only Lobrid antifreeze approved

for the vehicle. Consult a workshop.

The system is factory filled with

coolant designed for excellent

corrosion protection and frost

protection down to approx. -28 °C. In

cold regions with very low

temperatures the factory filled coolant

provides frost protection down to

approx. -37 °C. This concentration

should be maintained all year round.

234 Service and maintenance

The use of additional coolant

additives that intend to give additional

corrosion protection or seal against

minor leaks can cause function

problems. Liability for consequences

resulting from the use of additional

coolant additives will be rejected.

Washer fluid

Use 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.

Use only brake fluid approved for the

vehicle. Consult a workshop.

AdBlue

Only use AdBlue to reduce the

nitrogen oxides in the exhaust

emission 3 114.

Vehicle data recording

and privacy

Event data recorders

Electronic control units are installed in

your vehicle. Control units process

data which is received by vehicle

sensors, for example, or which they

generate themselves or exchange

amongst themselves. Some control

units are necessary for the safe

functioning of your vehicle, others

assist you while you drive (driver

assistance systems), while others

provide comfort or infotainment

functions.

The following contains general

information about data processing in

the vehicle. You will find additional

information as to which specific data

is uploaded, stored and passed on to

third parties and for what purpose in

your vehicle under the key word Data

Protection closely linked to the

references for the affected functional

characteristics in the relevant owner's

manual or in the general terms of

sale. These are also available online.

Operating data in the vehicle

Control units process data for

operation of the vehicle.

This data includes, for example:

● vehicle status information (e.g.

speed, movement delay, lateral

acceleration, wheel rotation rate,

"seat belts fastened" display)

● ambient conditions (e.g.

temperature, rain sensor,

distance sensor)

As a rule such data is transient and is

not stored for longer than an

operational cycle, and only processed

on board the vehicle itself. Often

control units include data storage

(including the vehicle key). This is

used to allow information to be

documented temporarily or

permanently on vehicle condition,

component stress, maintenance

requirements and technical events

and errors.

Customer information 247

Depending on technical equipment

levels, the data stored is as follows:

● system component operating

states (e.g. fill level, tyre

pressure, battery status)

● faults and defects in important

system components (e.g. lights,

brakes)

● system reactions in special

driving situations (e.g. triggering

of an airbag, actuation of the

stability control systems)

● information on events damaging

the vehicle

● for electric vehicles the amount of

charge in the high-voltage

battery, estimated range

In special cases (e.g. if the vehicle

has detected a malfunction), it may be

necessary to save data that would

otherwise just be volatile.

When you use services (e.g. repairs,

maintenance), the operating data

saved can be read together with the

vehicle identification number and

used where necessary. Staff working

for the service network (e.g. garages,

manufacturers) or third parties (e.g.

breakdown services) can read the

data from the vehicle. The same

applies to warranty work and quality

assurance measures.

Data is generally read via the OBD

(On-Board Diagnostics) port

prescribed by law in the vehicle. The

operating data read documents the

technical condition of the vehicle or

individual components and assists

with fault diagnosis, compliance with

warranty obligations and quality

improvement. This data, in particular

information on component stress,

technical events, operator errors and

other faults, is transmitted to the

manufacturer where appropriate,

together with the vehicle identification

number. The manufacturer is also

subject to product liability. The

manufacturer potentially also uses

operating data from vehicles for

product recalls. This data can also be

used to check customer warranty and

guarantee claims.

Fault memories in the vehicle can be

reset by a service company when

carrying out servicing or repairs or at

your request.

Comfort and infotainment

functions

Comfort settings and custom settings

can be stored in the vehicle and

changed or reset at any time.

Depending on the equipment level in

question, 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 the

infotainment functions for your

vehicle as part of the selected

features.

Depending on the equipment level in

question, these include

● multimedia data such as music,

videos or photos for playback in

an integrated multimedia system

● address book data for use with an

integrated hands-free system or

an integrated navigation system

248 Customer information

● input destinations

● data on the use of online services

This data for comfort and

infotainment functions can be stored

locally in the vehicle or be kept on a

device that you have connected to the

vehicle (e.g. a smartphone, USB stick

or MP3 player). Data that you have

input yourself can be deleted at any

time.

This data can only be transmitted out

of the vehicle at your request,

particularly when using online

services in accordance with the

settings selected by you.

Smartphone integration, e.g.

Android Auto or Apple CarPlay

If your vehicle is equipped

accordingly, you can connect your

smartphone or another mobile device

to the vehicle so that you can control

it via the controls integrated in the

vehicle. The smartphone image and

sound can be output via the

multimedia system in this case. At the

same time, specific information is

transmitted to your smartphone.

Depending on the type of integration,

this includes data such as position

data, day / night mode and other

general vehicle information. For more

information, please see the operating

instructions for the vehicle /

infotainment system.

Integration allows selected

smartphone apps to be used, such as

navigation or music playback. No

further integration is possible

between smartphone and vehicle, in

particular active access to vehicle

data. The nature of further data

processing is determined by the

provider of the app used. Whether

you can define settings, and if so

which ones, is dependent on the app

in question and your smartphone's

operating system.

Online services

If your vehicle has a radio network

connection, this allows data to be

exchanged between your vehicle and

other systems. The radio network

connection is made possible by

means of a transmitter device in your

vehicle or a mobile device provided

by you (e.g. a smartphone). Online

functions can be used via this radio

network connection. These include

online services and applications /

apps provided to you by the

manufacturer or other providers.

Proprietary services

In the case of the manufacturer's

online services, the relevant functions

are described by the manufacturer in

an appropriate location (e.g. Owner's

Manual, the manufacturer's website)

and the associated data protection

information is provided. Personal

data may be used to provide online

services. Data exchange for this

purpose takes place via a protected

connection, e.g. using the

manufacturer's IT systems provided

for the purpose. Collection,

Customer information 249

processing and use of personal data

for the purposes of preparation of

services take place solely on the

basis of legal permission, e.g. in the

case of a legally prescribed

emergency communication system or

a contractual agreement, or by virtue

of consent.

You can activate or deactivate the

services and functions (which are

subject to charges to some extent)

and, in some cases, the vehicle's

entire radio network connection. This

does not include statutory functions

and services such as an emergency

communication system.

Third party services

If you make use of online services

from other providers (third parties),

these services are subject to the

liability and data protection and usage

conditions of the provider in question.

The manufacturer frequently has no

influence over the content exchanged

in this regard.

Therefore, please note the nature,

scope and purpose of the collection

and use of personal data within the

scope of third party services provided

by the service provider in question.

Radio Frequency

Identification (RFID)

RFID technology is used in some

vehicles for functions such as tyre

pressure monitoring and immobiliser.

It is also used in connection with

conveniences such as radio remote

controls for door locking / unlocking

and starting. RFID technology in Opel

vehicles does not use or record

personal information or link with any

other Opel system containing

personal information.
