Opel Corsa: Driver assistance systems / Adaptive cruise control
The adaptive cruise control is an enhancement to the conventional cruise control with the additional feature of maintaining a certain following distance to the vehicle ahead.
It uses radar and camera sensors to detect the vehicles ahead. If no vehicle is detected in the driving path, the adaptive cruise control will behave like a conventional cruise control.
The adaptive cruise control automatically decelerates the vehicle when approaching a slower moving vehicle. It then adjusts the vehicle speed to follow the vehicle ahead at the selected following distance. The vehicle speed increases or decreases to follow the vehicle ahead, but will not exceed the set speed. It may apply limited braking with activated brake lights.
If the vehicle ahead accelerates or changes lane, the adaptive cruise control progressively accelerates the vehicle to return to the stored set speed. If the driver operates the turn lights to overtake a slower vehicle, the adaptive cruise control allows the vehicle to temporarily approach the vehicle ahead to help passing it. However, the set speed will never be exceeded.
The adaptive cruise control can store set speeds over 30 km/h for manual transmission. If the vehicle ahead is moving too slowly and the selected following distance cannot be maintained anymore, a warning chime is given and a message is displayed in the Driver Information Centre. The message prompts the driver to take back control of the vehicle. On vehicles with automatic transmission, the system can brake the vehicle until a full stop.
Warning
The complete driver attention is
always required while driving with
adaptive cruise control. The driver
stays fully in control of the vehicle
because the brake pedal, the
accelerator pedal and the button
have priority over any adaptive
cruise control operation.
