Driving Tips - Opel MOVANO Owner's Manual

your hands on the steering wheel or
pressing the accelerator pedal at the
same time will cause the system to
behave normally and the minimum risk
manoeuvre will be aborted.
SYSTEM LIMITED
OPERATION
The Co-Driver may have limited or
reduced functionality when one of the
following conditions occurs:
The main ones are listed below:
lane marking lines are not clear or
in conditions of poor visibility (e.g. in
heavy rain, snow, fog, etc.);
either the camera or radar are
damaged, covered or obstructed (e.g.
by mud, ice, snow, etc.);
when driving in the hills or on roads
with narrow turns;
near motorway toll-gates;
when the motorway entrance or exit
is more than 6 meters wide;
if the camera is exposed to dazzling
light (e.g. reflection or direct sunlight).
IMPORTANT
193) Many unpredictable situations can
arise, affecting the performance of Co-
Driver system. The driver must be ready to
react immediately and take control of the
vehicle in place of Co-Driver system.
236
194) If the vehicle approaches a bend that
is too tight with respect to the current
speed, the Co-Driver system turns off.
The driver must therefore be ready to
immediately regain control of the vehicle
at any time. To avoid this situation it is
important that the vehicle speed set does
not exceed the current road speed limit.
195) The Co-Driver system uses a hands
on steering wheel detection sensor:
the driver must keep his hands on the
steering wheel at all times. If the hands
are removed from the steering wheel
for a certain period of time, the system
disengages.
196) When using Co-Driver system, hold
the steering wheel and consider the
road conditions and surrounding traffic.
The driver must therefore be ready to
immediately regain control of the vehicle
at any time. Failure to observe these
instructions can cause severe injuries with
even lethal consequences.
197) The Co-Driver system is an aid for the
driver, who must always pay full attention
while driving. The responsibility always
rests with the driver, who must take into
account the traffic conditions in order to
drive in complete safety. The driver must
always maintain a safe distance from the
vehicle in front.
198) If the windscreen glass must be
replaced due to scratches, chipping or
breakage, contact exclusively a Dealership.
Do not replace the windscreen on your
own, risk of malfunction! It is advisable to
replace the windscreen if it is damaged in
the area of the camera.
199) Driving the vehicle on urban routes
could significantly change the sensitivity of
the system, due to the limited and/or lack
of vertical and horizontal signs and variable
traffic conditions.
200) Do not place any objects on the
steering wheel (e.g. steering wheel covers
of any type or material) which could
interfere with the capacitive hand detection
sensor on the steering wheel.
201) External factors and conditions
may affect the proper operation of the
Co-Driver system: damage or obstructions
caused by mud, ice, snow, etc., damaged
or misaligned bumpers, interference
with other equipment that causes
electromagnetic waves.
