Opel Corsa: Driving and operating / Driver assistance systems
Warning
Driver assistance systems are
developed to support the driver
and not to replace the driver's
attention.
The driver accepts full
responsibility when driving the
vehicle.
When using driver assistance
systems, always take care
regarding the current traffic
situation.
Electronic Stability Control and Traction Control system
Electronic stability control improves
driving stability when necessary,
regardless of the type of road surface
or tyre grip...
The cruise control can store and
maintain speeds above 40 km/h.
Additionally, at least the third gear
must be engaged on some manual
transmissions...
Other information:
After activation of brake preparation
system and just before the imminent
collision, this function automatically
applies limited braking to reduce the
impact speed of the collision or
prohibit a crash.
If active emergency braking is
applied, flashes in the instrument
cluster...
Antilock brake system (ABS)
prevents the wheels from locking.
ABS starts to regulate brake pressure
as soon as a wheel shows a tendency
to lock. The vehicle remains
steerable, even during hard braking.
ABS control is made apparent
through a pulse in the brake pedal
and the noise of the regulation
process...
