2014.5 VAUXHALL CORSA stop start

150Vehicle careBrakesA squealing noise indicates that the
brake lining is at its minimum
thickness. Continued driving is
possible but have the brake lining
replaced as soon as possible.
Once new brake linings are installed,
do not brake unnecessarily hard for
the first few journeys.
Brake fluid9 Warning
Brake fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, fabrics and painted surfaces.
The brake fluid level must be betweenthe MIN and the MAX marks.
If fluid level is below MIN seek the
assistance of a workshop.
Brake and clutch fluid 3 195.
Vehicle battery Vehicles without stop-start system
will be equipped with a lead acid
battery. Vehicles with stop-start
system will be equipped with an
AGM battery which is not a lead acid
battery.
The vehicle battery is maintenance-
free provided that the driving profile
allows sufficient charging of the
battery. Short-distance-driving and
frequent engine starts can discharge
the battery. Avoid the use of
unnecessary electrical consumers.
Batteries do not belong in household
waste. They must be disposed of at
an appropriate recycling collection
point.
Laying up the vehicle for more than
4 weeks can lead to battery
discharge. Disconnect the clamp from the negative terminal of the vehicle
battery.
Ensure the ignition is switched off
before connecting or disconnecting
the vehicle battery.

Vehicle care151
The anti-theft alarm siren must be
deactivated as follows: switch the
ignition on then off, disconnect the
vehicle's battery within 15 seconds.
Vehicle battery discharge protection
3 105.
Replacing the vehicle battery Notice
Any deviation from the instructions
given in this paragraph may lead to
a temporary deactivation of the stop-
start system.
When the vehicle battery is being
replaced, please ensure that there
are no open ventilation holes in the
vicinity of the positive terminal. If a
ventilation hole is open in this area, it
must be closed off with a dummy cap,
and the ventilation in the vicinity of the negative terminal must be opened.
Only use vehicle batteries that allow
the fuse box to be mounted above the
vehicle battery.
In vehicles with stop-start system, ensure to have the AGM (Absorptive
Glass Mat) battery replaced with an
AGM battery again.
An AGM battery can be identified by
the label on the battery. We
recommend the use of an original
Vauxhall battery.
Notice
Using an AGM vehicle battery
different from the original Vauxhall vehicle battery may result in a lower
performance of the stop-start
system.
We recommend that you have the
battery replaced by a workshop.
Stop-start system 3 116.
Charging the vehicle battery9 Warning
On vehicles with stop-start
system, ensure that the charging potential does not exceed
14.6 volts when using a battery
charger. Otherwise the vehicle
battery might be damaged.
Jump starting 3 187.
Warning label

174Vehicle careTyre pressure monitoring
system The vehicle may be fitted with a tyrepressure monitoring system or a tyre
deflation detection system 3 175.Caution
Modifications made to the tyre
pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) by anyone other than an
authorised service facility may
void authorisation to use the
system.
The tyre pressure monitoring system
checks the pressure of all four wheels once a minute when vehicle speed
exceeds a certain limit.
Caution
Tyre pressure monitoring system
warns only about low tyre pressure
condition and does not replace
regular tyre maintenance by the
driver.
All wheels must be equipped with pressure sensors and the tyres must
have the prescribed pressure.
Notice
In countries where the tyre pressure
monitoring system is legally
required, the use of wheels without
pressure sensors will invalidate the
vehicle type approval.
Winter tyres or additional wheel sets
have to be fitted with sensors,
otherwise the system will not work
and the control indicator A illuminates
continuously.
If A lights up, stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tyres as
recommended 3 217.
After inflating, driving may be
required to extinguish A.
If A lights up at lower temperatures
and extinguishes after some driving,
this could be an early indicator for getting low pressure. Check tyre
pressure.
The tyre pressure monitoring system
malfunction indicator is combined
with the low tyre pressure controlindicator. If the system detects a
malfunction, the control indicator will
flash for approx. 1 minute and then
remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start‐ups as long as the malfunction exists.
A temporary spare wheel is not
equipped with a pressure sensor. The
tyre pressure monitoring system is
not operational for these wheels.
Control indicator A illuminates.
Operating electronic devices or being
near facilities using radio wave
frequencies similar to the tyre
pressure monitoring system could
cause the tyre pressure monitoring
system sensors to malfunction.
Tyre pressure monitoring system malfunctions may occur for a variety
of reasons, including the installation
of replacement or alternate tyres or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent the tyre pressure monitoring system fromfunctioning properly. Always check
the tyre pressure monitoring system
malfunction control indicator after
replacing one or more tyres or wheels

Vehicle care175
on your vehicle to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tyres and wheels allow the tyre pressure
monitoring system to continue to
function properly.
The use of commercially available
liquid tyre repair kits can impair the
function of the system. Factory
approved repair kits can be used.
System initialisation After a wheel change or tyre pressure
adjustment the system must be
initialised: inflate the cold tyres to the
prescribed pressure according to the
tyre information label or this
document 3 217. Then switch on
ignition and press and hold the DDS
button for approx. 4 seconds. The
control indicator A flashes three
times.
If the tyre pressure difference
between the left and the right wheel
on one axle is more than 30 kPa, tyre
pressure monitoring system
malfunction will be indicated, as the
vehicle starts moving for the first time after initialisation. Adjust tyre
pressure and repeat initialisation.Notice
The system needs to be initialised
after tyre pressure change,
otherwise it will not be able to warn
properly.
Each time the tyres are replaced, the
tyre pressure monitoring system
sensors have to be dismounted and
serviced. For the screwed sensor
replace the valve core and sealing
ring, for the clipped sensor replace
complete rubber valve stem.
Auto learn function
After changing wheels the vehicle
must be stationary for approx.
20 minutes, before the system
recalculates. The following relearn
process takes up to 10 minutes of
driving with a minimum speed of
16 mph.
Tyre deflation detection
system The tyre deflation detection system
continually checks the rotation speed
of all four tyres.
If a tyre loses pressure the control
indicator w illuminates red. Stop
immediately and check tyre pressure.
Control indicator w 3 83.

Vehicle care187Jump starting
Do not start with quick charger.
A vehicle with a discharged battery
can be started using jump leads and the battery of another vehicle.9 Warning
Be extremely careful when starting
with jump leads. Any deviation
from the following instructions can
lead to injuries or damage caused
by battery explosion or damage to the electrical systems of both
vehicles.
9 Warning
Avoid contact of the battery with
eyes, skin, fabrics and painted
surfaces. The fluid contains
sulphuric acid which can cause
injuries and damage in the event
of direct contact.
Notice
Any deviation from the instructions
given in this paragraph may lead to
a temporary deactivation of the stop-
start system.
■ Never expose the battery to naked flames or sparks.
■ A discharged battery can already freeze at temperatures of 0 °C.
Defrost the frozen battery before
connecting jump leads.
■ Avoid contact with eyes, skin, fabrics and painted surfaces. The
fluid contains sulphuric acid which
can cause injuries and damage in
the event of direct contact.
■ Wear eye protection and protective
clothing when handling a battery.
■ Use a booster battery with the same voltage (12 Volts). Its
capacity (Ah) must not be much less than that of the discharged
battery.
■ Use jump leads with insulated terminals and a cross section of at
least 16 mm 2
(25 mm 2
for diesel
engines).■ Do not disconnect the discharged battery from the vehicle.
■ Switch off all unnecessary electrical
consumers.
■ Do not lean over the battery during jump starting.
■ Do not allow the terminals of one lead to touch those of the other
lead.
■ The vehicles must not come into contact with each other during thejump starting process.
■ Apply the parking brake, transmission in neutral, automatic
transmission in P.
■ Open the positive terminal protection caps of both batteries.
