How to check the coolant temperature on an Opel Astra H

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra H - Years 2004-2010
Part: Antifreeze coolant

In this video we can see how to access the secret menu of an Opel Astra H, which allows us to control the coolant temperature directly from the dashboard display. We turn on the instrument panel and press the central button, which is also used for searching radio channels. Press and hold the "setting" button until we hear a "beep". Now press the "BC" button repeatedly until we reach a screen where we find all the temperatures of the liquids inside the vehicle. The coolant temperature is the first heat we see in the list.
