In order to guarantee economical and safe
vehicle operation and to maintain the
value of your vehicle, it is of vital
importance that all maintenance work is
carried out at the proper intervals as
specified by Vauxhall.
In vehicles with a fixed engine oil change
and service interval, InSP appears in the
odometer display when the ignition is
switched on if the vehicle is due for service.
Have service work performed within a week
or 300 miles (500 km). We recommend your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
The service interval display takes account
of off-the-road periods during which the
battery is disconnected.
For vehicles with flexible engine oil change
and service intervals, the length of these
intervals is based on several parameters
stemming from usage. For this reason,
various engine-specific data is continually
gathered and is used to calculate the
remaining distance until the next service.
This remaining distance can be displayed
with the ignition off: briefly press the trip
odometer reset button, the mileage
reading shows. Press the button again for
around 2 seconds, InSP and the remaining
distance is shown.
If the remaining distance is less than 1000
miles (1500 km), InsP is displayed with a
remaining distance of 600 miles (1000 km)
when the ignition is switched on and off.
InsP is displayed for several seconds if the
remaining distance is less than 600 miles
(1000 km). Have the service work that is
due carried out within one week or 300
miles (500 km). Have this work carried out
by a Vauxhall Authorised Repairer in order
to avoid invalidation of warranty claims.
