Control Indicator V For Belt Tensioners - Vauxhall Corsa Owner's Manual

Control indicator v for belt tensioners

The belt tensioners are monitored
electronically and their operational
readiness is indicated on the instrument
panel by control indicator v. When the
ignition is switched on the control indicator
lights up for approx. 4 seconds. If it
does not light up, does not go off after
4 seconds, or lights up while driving, there
is a fault in the belt tensioner system or the
airbag systems - see page 81. The belt
tensioners or airbag systems may not be
triggered in the event of an accident.
Have the cause of the fault remedied.
We recommend that you consult a
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
The system's integrated self-diagnostics
allows faults to be quickly remedied. Have
your Car Pass on hand when consulting a
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
Important
z Do not fit accessories not specifically
released for your vehicle type or store
objects in the belt tensioner operating
area (in the area of the belt tensioners)
due to the risk of injury in the event the
belt tensioners are triggered.
z Do not make any modifications to the
components of the belt tensioners, as
this will render the vehicle unroadworthy.
Improper handling (e.g. removal or
installation) could cause the belt
tensioners to be triggered. Risk of injury!
z The belt tensioner and airbag system
control electronics can be found in the
centre console area. In order to avoid
malfunctions, do not store magnetic
objects in this area.
z We recommend that you have the front
seats removed by a Vauxhall Authorised
Repairer.
z The belt tensioners only actuate once.
Please replace belt tensioners that have
been triggered. We recommend that you
consult a Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
z Applicable safety directives must always
be observed when disposing of the
vehicle. For this reason, disposal should
be performed by an authorised recycling
company. We recommend that you
consult a Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
