Opel Corsa: Adaptive cruise control / Driver's attention
- 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 sensor
can be covered by a water film,
dust, ice or snow. This reduces or
suppresses completely the
visibility. In case of sensor
blockage, clean the sensor
cover.
- Do not use the system when the
spare wheel is in use.
Press , the adaptive cruise
control
mode is disabled and the adaptive
cruise control indication extinguishes
in the Driver Information Centre.

Warning
The system's automatic brake
force does not permit hard braking

sufficient to avoid a collision.
After a sudden lane change, the

detect the next preceding
vehicle...
