Opel Corsa: System limitations / Lane keep assist
Lane keep assist supports the driver
to avoid unintended leaving of the
lane. The front camera observes road
edges, as well as the lane markings
between which the vehicle is driving.
If the vehicle approaches a road edge
or a lane marking, the steering wheel
is gently turned to position so that the
vehicle turns back into the lane. The
driver will then notice a turning
movement of the steering wheel. Turn
steering wheel in same direction, if
the system does not steer sufficiently.
Turn steering wheel gently into
opposite direction, if lane change is
intended.
When the system steers to correct the
trajectory of the vehicle,
flashes
yellow in the instrument cluster.
Unintended lane departure is not
assumed by the system when the turn
lights are operated and during few
seconds after turn lights have been
switched off.
Note
The system may be switched off if it
detects lanes which are too narrow,
too wide or too curved.
Following preconditions have to be
fulfilled:
- vehicle speed must be between
65 km/h and 180 km/h
- the driver must hold the steering
wheel
- the turn lights are not activated
- the electronic stability control is
activated and not in operation
- the vehicle is not connected to a
trailer or an electric bicycle carrier
- normal driving behaviour (system
detects dynamic driving style, i.e.
pressure on the brake or
accelerator pedal)
- roads with good lane markings
- no spare wheel is used
- the driver is not taking the hands
off the steering wheel for a longer
time period
- the vehicle is not driven in a tight
corner
The traffic sign assistant is an
extension of the speed limit
recognition available for speed
limiter, cruise control and adaptive
cruise control.
The system recognises the traffic
signs above and displays them in the
Driver Information Centre...

Warning
Under certain circumstances,
various reflective surfaces on
objects or clothing as well as
external noise sources may cause
the system to fail to dete..
Use the adaptive cruise control
carefully on bends or mountain
roads, as it can lose the vehicle
ahead and needs time to detect it
again.
Do not use the system on
slippery roads as it can create
rapid changes in tyre traction
(wheel spinning), so that you
could lose control of the vehicle.
Do not use the adaptive cruise
control during rain, snow or
heavy dirt, as the radar ..
