Opel CORSA 2017 Owner's Manual page 175

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.
On vehicles equipped with radar
sensor and front camera, the active
emergency braking operates from
5 km/h to 140 km/h when a vehicle
has been detected.
Active emergency braking only works
when the seat belts of the front
passengers are fastened.
The system includes:
● brake preparation system
● emergency automatic braking
● smart brake assist
● forward collision alert
● front pedestrian protection
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.
Emergency automatic braking
After activation of brake preparation
system and just before the imminent
collision, this function automatically
applies braking to reduce the impact
speed of the collision or prohibit a
crash.
If active emergency braking is
applied, m flashes in the instrument
cluster.
Emergency automatic braking is
designed to react on vehicles,
pedestrians or cyclist ahead.
Forward collision alert 3 171.
Front pedestrian protection 3 175.
Below a speed of 30 km/h,
emergency automatic braking may
slow down the vehicle to a complete
Driving and operating
stop. If the speed exceeds 30 km/h,
emergency automatic braking
reduces the speed. However, the
driver must apply the brake to come
to a complete stop.
Automatic transmission: If the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, automatic
braking is maintained for a certain
time. Keep the brake pedal
depressed to prevent the vehicle from
starting off again.
Manual transmission: If the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, the engine
may stall.
Cruise control will be deactivated
when an emergency automatic
braking occurs.
9 Warning
Do not rely on the system to brake
the vehicle. Emergency automatic
braking will not brake outside of its
operating speed range and only
responds to detected vehicles and
pedestrians.
