Brake system
The effectiveness of the brakes is an 
important factor for traffic safety. 
To improve effectiveness, do not brake 
unnecessarily hard for the first 125 miles 
(200 km) after new brake pads have been 
fitted. 
Brake pad wear must not exceed a 
specified limit. Regular maintenance as 
detailed in the Service Booklet is therefore 
of the utmost importance for traffic safety. 
Have worn brake pads replaced. 
We recommend that you consult your 
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer, who will fit 
pads that have been tested and approved 
by Vauxhall and guarantee optimum 
braking power. 
Brake pads worn to their minimum 
thickness generate a grinding noise. 
Continued driving is possible. Have the 
brake pads replaced as soon as possible 
by a workshop. We recommend your 
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
