3-22 Seats and Restraints

Selecting the right system

The rear seats are the mostconvenient location to fasten a childrestraint system.

Children should travel facingrearwards in the vehicle as long aspossible. This makes sure that thechild's backbone, which is still veryweak, is under less strain in theevent of an accident.

Children under the age of 12 yearsthat are shorter than 150 cm (5 ft)are only allowed to travel in arestraint system that is suitable forthe child. Suitable are restraintsystems that comply with ECE44-03 or ECE 44-04. Since a properposition of the belt is rarely possiblewith a child that is shorter than150 cm (5 ft), we strongly advise theuse of an appropriate child restraintsystem, even though this might, dueto the age of the child, no longer belegally binding.

Never carry a child while travellingin the vehicle. The child will becometoo heavy to hold in the event of acollision.

When transporting children, use thechild restraint systems suitable forthe child's weight.

Ensure that the child restraintsystem to be installed is compatiblewith the vehicle type.

Ensure that the mounting location ofthe child restraint system within thevehicle is correct.

Only allow children to enter and exitthe vehicle at the side facing awayfrom the traffic.

When the child restraint system isnot in use, secure the seat with asafety belt or remove it from thevehicle.

Note: Do not stick anything on thechild restraint systems and do notcover them with any other materials.

A child restraint system which hasbeen subjected to stress in anaccident must be replaced.

Please ensure that infants andchildren are seated in the rear seatsusing child restraints.

Until the children can use seat belts,please select a child restraintsuitable for its age and make surethe child wears it. Please see theinstructions on the relevant productsfor child restraints.

Appendix

1. Attention

It is not a system failure underthe circumstances listed below:

Situations that can affect the GPSpositioning:. Sometimes, when you are

driving on the motorway/viaduct,the floating point swings.

. When you are driving on a verysteep road.

. When you are driving on spiralroad, you will find that thefloating point swings. It isnothing to do with the radius ofthe road and the driving speedof your vehicle. One reasonmight be that the real roadcondition may differ from theinformation on theelectronic map.

. When you make a right/left turnto enter a road that has parallelroads nearby (less than 50 m

distance), you might find that thefloating point may go toanother road.

. When driving on a wide road in asnaky line, you may experiencethat the floating point swings dueto the mismatch of real distance.

. Before returning to ground levelroad after you have been drivingin an underground car park orthe spiral path of the multi-levelcar park, you will find that thefloating point may swing. Whenyour car is in a rotary elevator,the arrow of the floating pointmay not point to the rightdirection.

. Providing voice prompt at abranching path ahead.

. The guided distance maydeviate from the actualdistance rate.

When any of those situationsoccurs, the GPS satellite willautomatically adjust the currentposition fix if you keep driving.

Problems caused by map files:. When you return from a road

which is newly constructed to aroad recorded in map file, youmay find floating point swingsbecause the map file may notreflect the real road conditions.After you have driven for a while,the system will adjust to the rightposition using GPS signalinformation

. No through way due to roadclosure or pedestrian path

. Opening of a new road andclosure of old road;

. Guide to a no-through road;

. Route re-computed againwithout changing the proposedroute;

. Guide to a normal road insteadof a viaduct, or vice versa;

. If there are only small laneswithout a normal road near thedestination, the system will onlyguide you to a place near to yourdestination;

Black plate (84,1)Chevrolet Captiva Owner Manual (GMK-Localizing-GME-7896196) - 2014 -crc - 11/27/13

7-84 Infotainment System

. Instruct you to make a U-turn;

. No indication at abranching road;

. Turning instruction mismatchwith the real road condition;

. No indication of direction orvoice prompt about entrance/exitwhile guiding on motorway/expressway.

. Schematic map may mismatchreal road conditions.

Places having difficulties inreceiving GPS signals. In tunnels;. Between high buildings;. Under viaducts;. In trees/forests;

When using an external GPS aerial,we recommend that you place it onthe roof of the car. If there is a rackon the roof of your car, please makesure to separate the rack and theaerial.

GPS is managed by the USDepartment of Defense. It maypurposely reduce the accuracy ofthe GPS signals so that the floatingpoint may swing.

Use Notice. The floating point may swing

before the GPS signal isreceived when you turn thepower on.

. The floating point may swingwhen you use the system thefirst time after installation.

. The system will automaticallyadjust its position and directionusing GPS signals when thefloating point mismatches realconditions.

Antilock BrakeSystem (ABS)Anti-lock brake system (ABS)prevents the wheels from locking.

ABS starts to regulate brakepressure as soon as a wheel showsa tendency to lock. The vehicleremains steerable, even during hardbraking.

ABS control is made apparentthrough a pulse in the brake pedaland the noise of the regulationprocess.

For optimum braking, keep thebrake pedal fully depressedthroughout the braking process,

despite the fact that the pedal ispulsating. Do not reduce thepressure on the pedal.

ABS operation can be recognisedby vibration and the noise of theABS process.

To stop the vehicle optimally, keeppressing the brake pedal even if thebrake pedal vibrates.

Do not decrease your power whenpressing the brake pedal.

When you start the vehicle afterignition is switched on, you mayhear mechanical sounds. This isnormal so that the ABS is ready.

Parking Brake

The vehicle has an Electric ParkingBrake (EPB). The switch for theEPB is in the centre console. TheEPB can always be activated, evenif the ignition is OFF. To preventdraining the battery, avoid repeatedcycles of the EPB system when theengine is not running.

The system has a parking brakestatus lightY and a parking brakewarning light.

See Brake System Warning Light onpage 5-20. In case of insufficientelectrical power, the EPB cannot beapplied or released. Before leavingthe vehicle, check the parking brakestatus lamp to insure the parkingbrake is applied.

EPB Apply

The EPB can be applied any timethe vehicle is stopped. The EPB isapplied by momentarily lifting up onthe EPB switch. Once fully applied,the parking brake status lightYwill be on. While the brake is beingapplied, the status lamp will flashuntil full apply is reached. If the lightdoes not come on or remainsflashing, you need to have thevehicle serviced. Do not drive thevehicle if the parking brake statuslight is flashing. Consult a repairer.

See Brake System Warning Light onpage 5-20.

If the EPB is applied while thevehicle is in motion, a chime willsound. The vehicle will decelerateas long as the switch is held in theup position. Releasing the EPBswitch during the deceleration willrelease the parking brake. If theswitch is held in the up position untilthe vehicle comes to a stop, theEPB will remain applied.

When the ignition is switched ON,the ESC active & warning lamp andESC off indicator come on and gooff after about 4 seconds.

The ESC active & warning lampflashes while ESC is operating andilluminates to indicate that there is amalfunction in the system. If thiscondition occurs, consult a repaireras soon as possible.

See Electronic Stability Control(ESC) Indicator Light on page 5-22.

{ Caution

If the ESC active & warning lampcomes on, the ESC system isdefective. Make sure to consult arepairer as soon as possible.

Hydraulic brake assist (HBA)function

When the ESC system recognisesany emergency situations requiringhard braking, it automaticallydelivers an extra high brakingpressure to the wheels.

Active rollover protection(ARP) function

This function is a part of the ESCsystem. When your vehicle movesin an extremely unstable manner,this function helps the vehiclemaintain normal stability.

Traction control system (TCS)function

TCS prevents the driving wheelsfrom spinning, irrespective of theroad condition and tyre grip. Assoon as at least one driving wheelstarts to spin, the engine output isreduced and the spinning wheel isbraked. This improves the vehicle'sdirectional control and drivingpower, particularly on snow and iceas well as on wet or slippery roads.

Trailer stability assist (TSA)function

Snaking road trains are very difficultto handle. This function detectssnaking and then reduces the trainsvelocity until the oscillation stops.The deceleration is obtained byreducing the engine torque andincreasing the pressure in all wheelbrakes.

Hill start assist (HSA)

The system helps prevent rollbackwhen driving away on hill.

When depressing the acceleratorpedal after releasing the brakepedal on hill, the brakes remain onfor approximately 2 seconds.

Cruise Control

If your vehicle has cruise control,you can maintain a speed of about40 km/h (25 mph) or more withoutkeeping your foot on theaccelerator. This can really help onlong trips. Cruise control does notwork at speeds below about40 km/h (25 mph).

When you apply your brakes orpress the Q button, the cruisecontrol shuts off.

If your vehicle is in cruise controlwhen the optional traction controlsystem begins to limit wheel spin,the cruise control will automaticallydisengage. When road conditionsallow you to safely use it again, youmay turn the cruise control back on.

{ Caution

Cruise control can be dangerouswhere you can't drive safely at asteady speed. So, don't use yourcruise control on winding roads orin heavy traffic.

Cruise control can be dangerouson slippery roads. On such roads,fast changes in tyre traction cancause excessive wheel slip, andyou could lose control. Don't usecruise control on slippery roads.

. Press the RES/+ button. Hold itthere until you get up to thespeed you want, and thenrelease the button. To increaseyour speed in very smallamounts, tap the RES/+ buttonand then release it. Each timeyou do this, your vehicle will goabout 2 km/h (1.2 mph) faster.The accelerate feature will onlywork after you turn on the cruisecontrol by pressing the SET/-button.

Reducing speed while usingcruise control

There are two ways to reduce yourspeed while using cruise control:. Press the SET/- button until you

reach the lower speed you want,then release it.

. To slow down in very smallamounts, tap the SET/- button.Each time you do this, you willgo about 2 km/h (1.2 mph)slower.

Passing another vehicle whileusing cruise control

Use the accelerator pedal toincrease your speed. When youtake your foot off the pedal, yourvehicle will slow down to the cruisecontrol speed you set earlier.

Using cruise control on hills

How well your cruise control willwork on hills depends upon yourspeed, load and the steepness ofthe hills. When going up a steep hill,you may have to step on theaccelerator pedal to maintain yourspeed. When going downhill, youmay have to brake or shift to a lowergear to keep your speed down. Ofcourse, applying the brake pedaltakes you out of cruise control.Many drivers find this to be toomuch trouble and don't use cruisecontrol on steep hills.

Fuel

Fuel AdditivesPetrol should contain detergentadditives that help prevent engineand fuel system deposits fromforming. Clean fuel injectors andintake valves will allow the emissioncontrol system to work properly.Some petrol does not containsufficient quantities of additive tokeep fuel injectors and intake valvesclean. To make up for this lack ofdetergent, it is recommended thatGM Fuel System TreatmentPLUS(ACDelco part No. 88861013)be added to the fuel tank at everyengine oil change or every15,000 km, whichever occurs first.

Petrols containing oxygenates, suchas ethers and ethanol, may beavailable in your area. However,fuels containing more than 15%ethanol, such as E85 (85% ethanol),or more than 15% MTBE (an ether)should not be used in vehicles thatwere not designed for those fuels.

Notice: This vehicle was notdesigned for fuel that containsmethanol. Do not use fuelcontaining methanol. It cancorrode metal parts in the fuelsystem and also damage plasticand rubber parts. That damagewould not be covered under thevehicle warranty.

Some petrols can contain anoctane-enhancing additive calledmethylcyclopentadienyl manganesetricarbonyl (MMT); ask the attendantwhere you buy petrol whether thefuel contains MMT. We recommendagainst the use of such petrols.Fuels containing MMT can reducespark plug life and affect emissioncontrol system performance. Themalfunction indicator lamp mightturn on. If this occurs, return to yourdealer for service.

Fuel for Petrol Engines

Fuel recommendations

Use only unleaded fuel rated atRON95.

Fuel quality and additives containedin fuel have a significant effect onpower output, drive ability, and lifeof the engine.

Fuel with too low an octane numbercan cause engine knock.

{ Caution

Use of fuel with an octanenumber lower than RON95 maydamage engine. (In somecountries, you may be able to useunleaded fuel rated at RON91.For the details, consult anauthorised repairer.)

Use of leaded fuel will damageexhaust system and invalidate thewarranty.

Note: To prevent accidental use ofleaded fuel, the nozzles for leadedfuel are larger, and will not fit thefuel filler neck of your vehicle.

Do not use methanol.

Fuels containing methanol shouldnot be used in your vehicle.

This type of fuel can reduce vehicleperformance and damagecomponents of the fuel system.

{ Caution

Use of methanol may damage thefuel system. Such misuse is notcovered by the vehicle warranty.

Operation in foreign countries Ifyou are going to drive yourvehicle in another country:

Observe all regulations regardingregistration and insurance.

This vehicle was filled at the factorywith dexos-approved engine oil.

{ Caution

Use only engine oil that isapproved to the dexosspecification or an equivalentengine oil of the appropriateviscosity grade. Engine oilsapproved to the dexosspecification will show the dexossymbol on the container. Failure

(Continued)

Caution (Continued)

to use the recommended engineoil or equivalent can result inengine damage not covered bythe vehicle warranty. If you areunsure whether the oil isapproved to the dexosspecification, ask your serviceprovider.

SAE 5W-30 is the best viscositygrade for the vehicle. SAE 0W-30,0W-40, or 5W-40 can also be used.Do not use other viscosity oils suchas SAE 10W-30, 10W-40,or 20W-50.

In an area of extreme cold, wherethe temperature falls below -29°C(-20°F), an SAE 0W-30 oil shouldbe used. An oil of this viscositygrade will provide easier coldstarting for the engine at extremelylow temperatures. When selectingan oil of the appropriate viscosity

grade, be sure to always select oilthat meets the requiredspecification.

Engine oil life system

This vehicle has a computer systemthat indicates when to change theengine oil and filter. This is basedon engine revolutions, enginetemperature and mileage. Based ondriving conditions, the mileage atwhich an oil change is indicated canvary considerably. For the oil lifesystem to work properly, the systemmust be reset every time the oil ischanged.

When the system has calculatedthat oil life has been diminished, itindicates that an oil change isnecessary. A change engine oillamp displays. Change the oil assoon as possible within the next1,000 km (600 miles). It is possiblethat, if driving under the bestconditions, the oil life system mightindicate that an oil change is notnecessary for up to a year. Theengine oil and filter must be

Use of unsuitable tyres or wheelcovers could lead to suddenpressure loss and therebyaccidents.

Wheel Alignment andTyre BalanceThe tyres and wheels were alignedand balanced at the factory toprovide the longest tyre life and best

overall performance. Adjustments towheel alignment and tyre balancingare not necessary on a regularbasis. Also, your vehicle'ssuspension and steering systemsneed some time to settle from theshipping process, and adjust to theway you drive and the amount ofpassengers and cargo you carrywith you. GM recommends that youdrive your new vehicle at least 800kilometres before evaluating yourvehicle for steering pull. Some slightpull to the left or right, depending onthe crown of the road and/or otherroad surface variations such astroughs or ruts, is normal. So,consider requesting an alignmentcheck only if the vehicle issignificantly pulling to one side orthe other, or if you notice unusualtyre wear. If the vehicle is vibratingwhen driving on a smooth road, thetyres and wheels may need to bere-balanced. See your dealer forproper diagnosis.

Maintenance Item Note

13 Visually inspect hoses and have them replaced if they are cracked, swollen, or deterio-rated. Inspect all pipes, fittings, and clamps; replace with genuine parts if needed. To helpensure correct operation, a pressure test of the cooling system and pressure cap andcleaning the outside of the radiator and air conditioning condenser is recommended.

14 Make sure the safety belt reminder light and safety belt assemblies are working correctly.Look for any other loose or damaged safety belt system parts. If you see anything thatmight keep a safety belt system from doing its job, have it repaired. Ensure any torn orfrayed safety belts are replaced.

16 Lubricate all key lock cylinders, door hinges and latches, bonnet hinges and latches, andboot lid hinges and latches. More frequent lubrication may be required when exposed to acorrosive environment. Applying silicone grease on weatherstrips with a clean cloth willmake them last longer, seal better, and not stick or squeak.

11-8 Service and Maintenance

Recommended Fluids

Recommended Fluidsand LubricantsOnly use products that have beentested and approved. Damageresulting from the use ofnon-approved materials will not becovered by the warranty.

{ Warning

Operating materials arehazardous and could bepoisonous. Handle with care. Payattention to information given onthe containers.

Engine Oil

Engine Oil is identified by its Qualityand its Viscosity Grade. "Quality"and "Specification" are equivalentterms in this respect. Engine OilQuality is more important thanViscosity when selecting whichEngine Oil to use. The Oil Quality

ensures e.g. engine cleanliness,wear protection and oil ageingcontrol, whereas Viscosity Gradegives information on the oil'sthickness over a temperature range.

Engine Oil Quality for Service

dexos

Selecting the right Engine Oil

Selecting the right Engine Oildepends on the proper OilSpecification and SAE ViscosityGrade.

Use and ask for Engine Oils withthe dexos™ Certification Logo. Oilsmeeting the requirements of yourvehicle should have the dexos™Certification Logo on the container.

This Logo indicates that the oil hasbeen approved by GM to thedexos™ Specification.

Your vehicle's Engine was filled atthe factory with dexos™ approvedEngine Oil.

Use only engine oil that is approvedto the dexos specification or anequivalent engine oil of theappropriate viscosity grade.

If you are unsure whether your oil isapproved to the dexos specification,ask your service provider.

Use of substitute engine oils ifdexos is unavailable: In the eventthat dexos approved engine oil isnot available at an oil change or formaintaining proper oil level, youmay use substitute engine oil of thequalities mentioned above. Use of

Service and Maintenance 11-9

oils that do not meet the dexosspecification, however, may result inreduced performance under certaincircumstances.

Topping up Engine Oil

Engine Oils of differentmanufacturers and brands can bemixed as long as they comply withthe required Engine Oil (Quality andViscosity).

If Engine Oil of the required Qualityis not available, a maximum of1 Litre ACEA A3/B3(Petrol) ACEAA3/B4 or ACEA C3(Diesel) may beused (only once between each oilchange).

The Viscosity should be of thecorrect rating.

Use of Engine Oil with only ACEAA1/B1 or only ACEA A5/B5 Qualityis prohibited, as it can cause longterm engine damage under certainoperating conditions.

Engine Oil Additives

The use of supplemental Engine OilAdditives could cause damage andinvalidate the warranty.

Engine Oil Viscosity Grades

The SAE Viscosity Grade givesinformation of the thickness ofthe Oil.

Multigrade Oil is indicated by twofigures:

The first figure, followed by a W,indicates the low temperatureViscosity and the second figureindicates the high temperatureViscosity.

SAE 5W-30 is the best ViscosityGrade for your vehicle. Do not useother Viscosity Grade Oils such asSAE 10W-30, 10W-40 or 20W-50.

Cold temperature operation:

If operating your vehicle in an areaof extreme cold, where thetemperature falls below -25°C, aViscosity Grade SAE 0W-xx shouldbe used. An Oil of this ViscosityGrade will provide easier coldstarting for the engine at extremelylow temperatures.

Black plate (10,1)Chevrolet Captiva Owner Manual (GMK-Localizing-GME-7896196) - 2014 -crc - 11/27/13

11-10 Service and Maintenance

When selecting an Oil of theappropriate Viscosity Grade be sureto always select an Oil that meetsthe dexos™‚ Specification.. Down to -25°C: 5W-30, 5W-40.. Down to -25°C and below:

0W-30, 0W-40.

The SAE viscosity grade givesinformation of the thickness ofthe oil.

Coolant and antifreeze

Use only organic acid type-long lifecoolant (LLC) antifreeze.

In countries with moderate climatethe coolant provides freezeprotection down to approx. -35°C.

In countries with cold climate thecoolant provides freeze protectiondown to approx. -50°C. Thisconcentration should be maintainedall year-round.

Maintain a sufficient concentrationof anti-freeze.

Coolant additives intended to giveadditional corrosion protection orseal against minor leaks can causefunction problems. Liability forconsequences resulting from theuse of coolant additives will berejected.

Brake fluid

Only use our authorised brake fluidfor this vehicle(DOT 4).

Over time, brake fluid absorbsmoisture which will reduce brakingeffectiveness. The brake fluidshould therefore be replaced at thespecified interval.

Brake fluid should be stored in asealed container to avoid waterabsorption.

Ensure brake fluid does not becomecontaminated.

Power steering fluid

Only use Dexron VI fluid.

Manual gearbox fluid

Only use Castrol BOT 303 fluid.

Automatic transmission fluid

Only use Dexron VI fluid.

Transfer case fluid (AWD)

Only use synthetic hypoid 75W-90fluid.

Differential carrier assemblyfluid (AWD)

Only use synthetic hypoid 75W-90fluid.
