warning VAUXHALL CORSA F 2020 Manual PDF

140Driving and operatingDepending on which side of the
vehicle is closer to an obstacle, you will hear acoustic warning signals inthe vehicle on the respective side.
The interval between the sounds
becomes shorter as the vehicle gets
closer to that obstacle. When the
distance is less than approx. 30 cm,
the sound is continuous.
Additionally, the distance to rear and
front obstacles is displayed by
changing distance lines in the Info Display 3 74.
If the vehicle stops for more than
3 seconds in a forward gear, if
automatic transmission is in P
position or if no further obstacles are
detected, no acoustic warning signals
are given.
Deactivation
The system is deactivated
automatically when vehicle speed
exceeds 6 mph, by applying the
electric parking brake or by pressing
the parking assist button e.
When the system is deactivated
manually, the LED in the button
illuminates.
If the system has been deactivated
manually, it is not reactivated
automatically the next time the
ignition is switched on.
System limitations
In the event of a fault or if the system does not work temporarily, e.g.
because of high external noise level
or other interference factors, C
illuminates in the instrument cluster. A message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre and a warning
chime sounds.9 Warning
Under certain circumstances,
various reflective surfaces on
objects or clothing as well as
external noise sources may cause the system to fail to detect
obstacles.
Special attention must be paid to
low obstacles which can damage
the lower part of the bumper.
Caution
Performance of the system can be reduced when sensors are
covered, e.g. by ice or snow.
Performance of the parking assist
system can be reduced due to
heavy loading.
Special conditions apply if there
are taller vehicles in the vicinity
(e.g. off-road vehicles, mini vans,
vans). Object identification and correct distance indication in the
upper part of these vehicles
cannot be guaranteed.

Driving and operating141Objects with a very small reflection
cross-section, e.g. objects of
narrow size or soft materials, may
not be detected by the system.
Parking assist systems do not
detect objects outside the
detection range.
Advanced parking assist
9 Warning
The driver bears full responsibility
for accepting the parking slot
suggested by the system and the
parking manoeuvre.
Always check the surrounding
area in all directions when using
the advanced parking assist.
The advanced parking assist
measures a suitable parking slot
while passing, calculates the
trajectory and automatically steers
the vehicle while parking.
Advanced parking assist provides
assistance for the following
manoeuvres:
● entry into a parallel parking slot
● entry into a perpendicular parking
slot
● exit from a parallel parking slot
The driver must control acceleration, braking and gear shifting, while
steering is done automatically. The driver can take control at any time by
gripping the steering wheel.
It may be necessary to move forwards and backwards more than once.
Instructions are given in the Info

Driving and operating145Notice
It is possible that the sensor detects
a non-existing object caused by echo disturbance from external
acoustic noise or mechanical
misalignments (sporadic false
warnings may occur).
Make sure that the front number
plate is properly mounted (not bent
and no gaps to the bumper on the left
or right side) and the sensors are
firmly in place.
Advanced parking assist system
may not respond to changes in the
available parking space after
initiating a parking manoeuvre. The
system may recognize an entry, a
gateway, a courtyard or even a
crossing as a parking slot. After
selecting reverse gear the system
will start a parking manoeuvre. Take care regarding the availability of the
suggested parking slot.
Surface irregularities, e.g. on
construction zones, are not detected
by the system. The driver accepts
responsibility.Side blind spot alert
Side blind zone alert assist helps to
avoid crashes due to unintentional
lane departures when an object is
detected within a specified blind spot zone.
The system displays a visual alert in
each exterior mirror, when detecting
objects that may not be visible in the
interior and exterior mirrors.
Side blind spot alert uses some of the
advanced parking assist sensors
which are located in the front and rear bumper on both sides of the vehicle.9 Warning
Side blind zone assistant system
is only a lane changing aid and does not replace driver vision.
Side blind zone assistant does not detect:
● Vehicles outside the side blind zones which may be rapidly
approaching.
● Pedestrians or animals.
● Non-moving objects, e.g. stationary vehicles, street
lights, road signs, etc.
Failure to use proper care when changing lanes may result in
damage to the vehicle, injury, or

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, L 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.
