Service plan, maintenance142Coolant temperatureFor physical reasons, the enginetemperature gauge shows the coolanttemperature only if the coolant level isadequate.During operation the system is pressurized.The temperature may therefore rise to over100 °C.If the temperature gauge enters the upperzone, check the coolant level immediately.z Coolant level too low:Top up coolant. Pay strict attention tothe instructions given under "Anti-freezeand corrosion protection" and "Coolantlevel". Have the cause of coolant lossremedied by a workshop.z Coolant level OK:Have the cause of increased coolanttemperature remedied by a workshop.Brake fluidBrake fluid levelThe fluid level in the container must not behigher than the "MAX" mark or lower thanthe "MIN" mark.Use of some brake fluids could causedamage or impair braking effectiveness.Stay well informed. We recommend thatyou use Vauxhall-approved highperformance brake fluid.Extreme cleanliness is important, sincebrake fluid contamination can lead tobrake system malfunctions.After correcting the brake fluid level, havethe cause of the loss remedied by aworkshop.Brake fluid changeAs brake fluid is hygroscopic, it absorbswater. Vapour bubbles which impair thebraking effect may occur during braking.The fluid change intervals specified in theService Booklet must therefore beobserved.9 WarningCaution - brake fluid is poisonous andcorrosive. Do not allow it to contact eyes,skin, fabrics or painted surfaces. Directcontact may cause injuries and damage.9 WarningWe recommend that you have brake fluidchanged by a Vauxhall AuthorisedRepairer, who will be familiar with therequirements of the law as regardsdisposal of brake fluid and can thus helpto protect the environment and yourhealth.Ofrecido por www.electromanuales.com
