DRIVING
Fitting driving lights or
insect screens
When fitting these accessories be careful
not to restrict air flow, otherwise engine
overheating and/or poor air conditioning
performance may result.
Nothing should be fitted over the upper or
lower air intakes at the front of the vehicle,
as this will affect engine cooling.
Fitting roo/nudge bars
If a nudge bar is to be fitted, it is critical the Holden approved nudge bar be used. Other
types must not be fitted. The Holden nudge bar is available from your Holden Dealer
and has been compatibility tested with the vehicle's design, including the Holden airbag
system.
WARNING
Fitting other types of roo/nudge bars may affect crash performance, airbag
performance and engine cooling.
Fitting a roo bar, or making other modifications to the front of the vehicle, may change
the impact speed which would normally cause the airbag to inflate, reducing its
effectiveness. Roo bars should not be fitted to vehicles operating in suburban areas,
as they increase the risk of injury to a pedestrian in the event of a collision. Roo bars
are only recommended for country or outback areas, where additional protection from
straying animals is required. Please remember that defensive driving and limiting
driving speed to the road conditions is always the best approach, particularly where
road side signs indicate wildlife is abundant.
Cargo barrier
If a cargo barrier is to be fitted, it is critical the Holden approved cargo barrier be used.
Other types must not be fitted. The Holden cargo barrier is available from your Holden
Dealer and has been compatibility tested with the vehicle's design, including the Holden
side curtain airbag system, fitting any other type of cargo barrier may interfere with the
deployment of the side curtain airbag system and reduce its effectiveness in protecting
passengers (excluding third row seats) in the event of a collision.
