traction control VAUXHALL VIVARO C 2020 User Guide

184Driving and operatingDeactivation of the functionality
Press button to deactivate the
functionality. The cruise control is in
pause mode and a message is
displayed. The vehicle is driven
without cruise control.
Cruise control is deactivated, but not
switched off. Last stored speed
remains in memory for later speed
resume.
Cruise control is deactivated
automatically:
● maximum deviation of20 mph between set speed and speed of
the vehicle ahead reached
● distance between vehicle and vehicle ahead too small
● vehicle speed below 25 mph
● speed of the vehicle ahead too slow
● Traction Control system or Electronic Stability Control
operating
● selected following distance reached
● another vehicle inserts between vehicle and vehicle ahead
● following distance cannot be maintained, e.g., in the case of a
steep descentSwitching off the system
Turn to 0 to switch off the system. The
symbol 5 and a message are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
Switching off the ignition deletes the
stored set speed.
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.

Driving and operating185● Do not use the system onslippery roads as it can create
rapid changes in tyre traction
(wheel spinning), so that the
control of the vehicle can be lost.
● Do not use the system when the spare wheel is in use.
System limits9 Warning
The system's automatic brake
force does not permit hard braking and the braking level may not be
sufficient to avoid a collision.
● The control range is limited to a maximum deviation of 20 mph
between the set speed and the
speed of the vehicle ahead.
● After a sudden lane change, the system needs a certain time to
detect the next preceding
vehicle. So if a new vehicle is
detected, the system may
accelerate instead of braking.
● The adaptive cruise control does ignore the oncoming traffic.
● The adaptive cruise control does not consider pedestrians and
animals for braking and driving
off.
● The adaptive cruise control considers stopped vehicles onlyat low speed.
● Do not use the adaptive cruise control when towing a trailer.
● Do not use the adaptive cruise control on roads with an incline ofmore than 10%.
Bends
The adaptive cruise control calculates
a predicted path based on the
centrifugal force. This predicted path
considers the current bend
characteristic, but cannot consider a
future bend change. The system may lose the current vehicle ahead or
consider a vehicle which is not in the
actual lane. This can happen when
entering or exiting a bend or if the
bend gets stronger or weaker. If it no
longer detects any vehicle ahead,
then control indicator I will
extinguish.
If the centrifugal force is too high in a
bend, the system slows down the vehicle slightly. This braking level is
not designed to avoid spinning-off the
bend. The driver is responsible for
reducing the selected speed before
entering a bend and in general to
adapt the speed to the road type and
to existing speed limits.
Motorways
On motorways, adapt the set speed
to the situation and the weather.
Always consider that adaptive cruise
control has a limited visibility range, a
limited braking level and a certain
reaction time to verify if a vehicle is on
