16 In brief
Parking the vehicle
z Apply handbrake firmly without
operating release button. On a downhill
or uphill slope, apply as firmly as
possible. Depress footbrake at same
time to reduce operating force.
z Switch engine off by turning ignition key
to 0. Remove ignition key and turn
steering wheel until it is felt to lock
(anti-theft protection). In vehicles with
automatic transmission 3 the key can
only be removed with the selector lever in
position P.
z If the vehicle is parked on a level surface
or a hill, select first gear before switching
the ignition off with manual transmission
or Easytronic 3, and with automatic
transmission 3 move selector lever to P.
Also turn front wheels away from kerb if
parked on an uphill slope.
If the vehicle is parked on a downhill
slope, with manual transmission or
Easytronic, 3 select reverse gear before
switching the ignition off, and with
automatic transmission 3 move selector
lever to position P. Also turn front wheels
towards kerb.
z Lock doors and luggage compartment
by turning key in driver’s door lock
towards the rear of the vehicle.
Alternatively, press button p on the
remote control 3. This also activates the
Vauxhall alarm system 3. To activate
the mechanical anti-theft locking
system 3, press button p twice.
Advice when parking:
z Do not park the vehicle on an easily
ignitable surface. The high temperature
of the exhaust system could ignite the
surface.
z On vehicles with Easytronic 3, control
indicator R flashes for a few seconds
after the ignition is switched off if the
handbrake has not been applied –
see page 146.
z Close the windows and sunroof 3.
z The engine cooling fans may run after
the engine has been switched off –
see page 255.
