Introduction

Your vehicle is an intelligent combination

of forward-looking technology, impressive

safety, environmental friendliness and

economy.

It now lies with you to drive your vehicle

safely and to see it performs perfectly. This

Owner’s Manual provides you with all the

necessary information to that end.

Make sure your passengers are aware of

the possible risk of accident and injury

which may result from improper use of the

vehicle.

You must always comply with the specific

laws of the country that you are in. These

laws may differ from the information in this

Owner’s Manual.

When this Manual refers to a workshop visit,

we recommend your Opel Service Partner.

All Opel Service Partners provide first-class

service at reasonable prices. Experienced

mechanics trained by Opel work according

to specific Opel instructions.

The Owner’s Manual, infotainment system

instructions and the vehicle Service and

Warranty Booklet should always be kept

ready to hand in the vehicle glove

compartment.
