Opel Corsa: Forward collision alert / System limitations
Forward collision alert is designed to
warn on vehicles, but may react also
to other objects.
In the following cases, forward
collision alert may not detect a vehicle
ahead or sensor performance is
limited:
- driving on winding or hilly roads
- driving during nighttime
- weather limits visibility, such as
fog, rain, or snow
- the sensor in the windscreen or
the radar unit behind the front
bumper are blocked by snow, ice,
slush, mud, dirt etc.
- the windscreen is damaged or
affected by foreign objects, e.g.
stickers
The system can only be deactivated
by deactivating the active emergency
braking in the vehicle personalisation. When ignition is switched on
next time, system is activated...
Front pedestrian protection may help
to avoid or reduce the harm caused
by front-end crashes with pedestrians
when driving forward.
The system uses the front camera in
the windscreen and depending on the
vehicle configuration a radar unit in
the front bumper to detect a
pedestrian directly ahead in the path...
Other information:
Depending on the vehicle
configuration and the detected
objects, there are several operational
speed ranges.
On vehicles equipped only with front
camera, the forward collision alert
operates from 5 km/h to 80 km/h
when a vehicle has been detected...
The system is part of the ignition
switch and checks whether the
vehicle is allowed to be started with
the key being used.
The immobiliser is activated
automatically.
