Exhaust gases
9
Warning
Engine exhaust gases contain poisonous
carbon monoxide, which is colourless and
odourless and could be fatal if inhaled.
If exhaust fumes penetrate the vehicle
interior, open the windows and consult a
workshop immediately. We recommend
your Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
During the first drive smoke may develop
because of wax and oil evaporating on the
exhaust system. Park the vehicle in the
open for a while after the first drive and
avoid inhaling the fumes.
Diesel particle filter 3
The diesel particle filter system includes a
self-cleaning function in specific intervals.
The filter is cleaned through the
combustion of soot particles. Some noise
and smoke is normal during this procedure.
The heated rear window 3 is automatically
deactivated during self-cleaning 3.
Maintenance
Have all maintenance work carried out
at the intervals specified by Vauxhall. We
recommend that you entrust this work
to your Vauxhall Authorised Repairer, who
has proper equipment and trained
personnel available. Electronic testing
systems permit rapid diagnosis and
remedy of faults. This way you can be
certain that all components of the vehicle's
electrical, injection and ignition systems
operate correctly, that your vehicle has a
low level of pollutant emission and that the
catalytic converter system will have a long
service life.
Catalytic converter, exhaust gases
You are thereby making an important
contribution towards keeping the air clean
and compliance with emissions legislation.
Checking and adjustment of the fuel-
injection and ignition systems is part of the
scope of a Service. For this reason you
should have all maintenance work carried
out at the intervals specified in your Service
Booklet.
