Coolant temperature
For physical reasons, the engine
temperature gauge shows the coolant
temperature only if the coolant level is
adequate.
During operation the system is pressurized.
The temperature may therefore rise to over
100 °C.
If the temperature gauge enters the upper
zone, check the coolant level immediately.
z Coolant level too low:
Top up coolant. Pay strict attention to
the instructions given under "Anti-freeze
and corrosion protection" and "Coolant
level". Have the cause of coolant loss
remedied by a workshop.
z Coolant level OK:
Have the cause of increased coolant
temperature remedied by a workshop.
Brake fluid
Brake fluid level
The fluid level in the container must not be
higher than the "MAX" mark or lower than
the "MIN" mark.
Use of some brake fluids could cause
damage or impair braking effectiveness.
Stay well informed. We recommend that
you use Vauxhall-approved high
performance brake fluid.
Extreme cleanliness is important, since
brake fluid contamination can lead to
brake system malfunctions.
After correcting the brake fluid level, have
the cause of the loss remedied by a
workshop.
Brake fluid change
As brake fluid is hygroscopic, it absorbs
water. Vapour bubbles which impair the
braking effect may occur during braking.
The fluid change intervals specified in the
Service Booklet must therefore be
observed.

Warning
Caution - brake fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Do not allow it to contact eyes,
skin, fabrics or painted surfaces. Direct
contact may cause injuries and damage.

Warning
We recommend that you have brake fluid
changed by a Vauxhall Authorised
Repairer, who will be familiar with the
requirements of the law as regards
disposal of brake fluid and can thus help
to protect the environment and your
health.
