Video tutorial

In this video we can see how to check the temperature of the coolant of an Opel/Vauxhall Astra H: the first thing to do is to turn on the radio, raise the volume and press the settings button, which is located on the right of the volume knob. We will hold it down for a few moments, until we hear a "beep" sound.

At this point we will press and hold the button located just below "BC": different screens will be displayed in sequence, until we reach the one that interests us, which highlights V= speed and T= temperature. With the engine running, the temperature will start to rise and we will be able to check the engine temperature.
