Opel Corsa: Active emergency braking / Brake preparation system
When approaching a vehicle ahead
or a pedestrian so quickly that a
collision is likely, the brake
preparation system slightly
pressurises the brakes. This reduces
the response time, when braking is
requested.
Depending on the vehicle
configuration and the detected
objects, there are several operational
speed ranges.
On vehicles equipped only with front
camera, the active emergency
braking operates from 5 km/h to
80 km/h when a vehicle has been
detected...
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...

In the event of minimum thickness of
the brake lining, a squealing noise
sounds during braking.
Continued driving is possible but
have the brake lining replaced as
soon as possible.
Once new brake linings are installed,
do not brake unnecessarily hard for
the first few journeys...
