The use of certain brake fluids can cause
damage or make the brakes less effective.
We therefore recommend that you only use
approved high-performance brake fluid.
When topping up, ensure maximum
cleanliness as contamination of the brake
fluid can lead to function problems in the
braking system.
After correcting the brake fluid level, have
the cause of the loss of brake fluid
remedied by a workshop.
Brake fluid change
Brake fluid is hygroscopic, i.e. it absorbs
water. If the brakes become hot, such as
when driving on long downhill stretches,
vapour bubbles can occur in the water,
which can have an extremely adverse
effect on braking power (depending on the
proportion of water).
The fluid change intervals specified in the
Service Booklet must therefore be
observed.

Warning
Please comply with the legal,
environmental and health regulations
concerning the disposal of brake fluid.

Windscreen wiper

Clear vision is essential for safe driving.
Regularly check the windscreen wiper for
cleaning effectiveness. We recommend
that wiper blades be replaced at least once
a year.
If the windscreen is dirty, operate the
windscreen wash system before switching
on the windscreen wiper or setting the
wiper to automatic operation with the rain
sensor 3. This will avoid wiper blade wear.
Do not switch on the windscreen wiper or
set to automatic operation with the rain
sensor 3 if the windscreen is iced up, as this
could damage the wiper blades or the
wiper system.
Service, maintenance
We recommend freeing a frozen
windscreen wiper with defrosting spray
before starting the vehicle, to prevent
wiper motor damage.
Smearing wiper blades can be cleaned with
a soft cloth and Vauxhall Windscreen
Wash Solvent.
Wiper blades whose lips have become
hardened, cracked or covered with silicone
must be replaced. This may be necessary
as a result of the effects of ice, thawing salt
or heat, or the incorrect use of cleaning
agents.
Switch off the windscreen wiper or
automatic wiper with rain sensor 3 in car
washes - see pages 108, 109, 247.
Windscreen wiper care – see page 250.
