Descent Control System - Vauxhall Movano 2022 Owner's Manual

104 Driving and operating
Activation / Deactivation
At speeds below approx. 19 mph,
press J. The LED in the button
J is illuminated to confirm the
activation of the system.
If the speed exceeds 19 mph, the
system is paused. The LED in the
button J is still illuminated. The
system is automatically resumed if
the speed falls below 19 mph.
To deactivate the system, press J.
The LED in the button J
extinguishes to confirm the
deactivation of the system.
Dynamic stability control
Dynamic stability control monitors
each wheel and automatically acts on
the brake of one or more wheels and
on the engine to return the vehicle to
the required path, within the limits of
the laws of physics, when it detects a
difference between the path followed
by the vehicle and that required by the
driver.
Dynamic stability control is
operational after each engine start as
soon as the control indicator J
extinguishes.
When dynamic stability control
operates, the control indicator J
flashes.
Load inertia control
The actual total weight of a
commercial vehicle can vary
considerably depending on its load.
The centre of gravity of the vehicle
can therefore move in the longitudinal
direction and even in height.
Each of these variations has
repercussions on braking, traction,
cornering behaviour and overturning.
The load inertia control estimates the
actual total weight of the vehicle by
analysing its behaviour, during
acceleration and braking phases.
This system then adapts the
intervention of the dynamic stability
control and TC according to the
weight distribution of the vehicle. In
critical situations, the vehicle
therefore remains more safely on its
trajectory.
Fault
If there is a fault in the ESC or in the
respective subsystems, the control
indicator J illuminates and a
message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre accompanied by a
warning chime. The system is not
operational.
Seek the assistance of a workshop.

Descent control system

The descent control system allows
the vehicle to travel at a low speed
without depressed brake pedal. The
vehicle will automatically decelerate
to a low speed and remain at that
