Exterior Mirrors - Vauxhall 2009 Tigra Owner's Manual

Note
z Changes to the vehicle interior, such as
the use of seat covers, could impair the
function of passenger compartment
monitoring.
z Switch off passenger compartment
monitoring if the interior of the parked
vehicle is heated.
Alarm
When triggered, the alarm gives off an
acoustic signal (horn) and a visual signal
(hazard warning lamps). The number and
duration of the alarms are stipulated by
legislation.
The alarm can be silenced by pressing a
button of the remote control or by
switching on the ignition. The anti-theft
alarm system is deactivated at the same
time.
Alarm siren with integrated battery 3
The alarm siren monitors the on-board
voltage network and triggers an alarm if
this network is manipulated (e.g. if the
vehicle's battery is disconnected by
unauthorised persons). The alarm siren has
its own power supply and is therefore not
dependent on the vehicle's battery.
If the vehicle's battery is to be
disconnected (e.g. for maintenance work),
the alarm siren must be deactivated as
follows: switch the ignition on then off,
disconnect the vehicle's battery within
15 seconds.
To switch off alarm siren:
Switch ignition on then off.

Select corresponding exterior mirror and
adjust with the four-way switch.
Aspherical exterior mirror 3
The aspherical exterior mirror reduces the
blind spot. The shape of the mirror makes
objects appear smaller, so allowing the
estimating of the distance of vehicles
following to be only partly possible.
Swinging in exterior mirror
The exterior mirrors can be folded in by
pressing gently on the outer edge of the
housing.
For the safety of pedestrians, the exterior
mirrors will swing out of their normal
mounting position if they are bumped with
sufficient force. Reposition the mirror by
applying slight pressure to the mirror
housing.
