Diesel fuel system, bleeding
Never let the tank run dry! If control
indicator Y illuminates, refuel as soon as
possible. Refuel immediately if it flashes.
It is possible to restart the engine if the tank
has been run dry. A delayed start is to be
expected. Switch on the ignition three times
for approx. 15 seconds. Then attempt to
start the engine for approx. 40 seconds
the engine does not start, wait at
least 5 minutes and try again. If the engine
does not start, consult a workshop. We
recommend your Vauxhall Authorised
Repairer.

For engine Z 17 DTH: For technical reasons,
only possible for 30 seconds. Sales designation

Starting
Do not start with quick charger
This prevents damage to electronic
components.
Do not start by
pushing or towing
Because your vehicle is fitted with a
catalytic converter, it must not be started
by pushing or towing - page 207.
Vehicle with the Open&Start system 3 must
not be started by pushing or towing if the
battery is discharged, since the steering
column lock cannot be released.
The vehicle can only be started using jump
leads - see following page.
