2015 VAUXHALL CORSA ECO mode

Driving and operating137
Without brake pedal applied, the
control indicator j illuminates.
If the selector lever is not in P when
the ignition is switched off, the control
indicator j flashes.
To engage P, R or M, press the
release button.
The engine can only be started with the lever in position P or N. When
position N is selected, press the brake
pedal or apply the parking brake
before starting.
Do not accelerate while engaging a
gear. Never depress the accelerator
pedal and brake pedal at the same
time.
When a gear is engaged, the vehicle
slowly begins to creep when the
brake is released.
Engine braking To utilise the engine braking effect,select a lower gear in good time when
driving downhill, see manual mode.Rocking the vehicle
Rocking the vehicle is only
permissible if the vehicle is stuck in
sand, mud or snow. Move the selector
lever between D and R in a repeat
pattern. Do not race the engine and
avoid sudden acceleration.
Parking
Apply the parking brake and engage P .
The ignition key can only be removed
when the selector lever is in position
P .
Manual modeMove selector lever in position M.
Press < on the selector lever to shift
a higher gear.
Press ] on the selector lever to shift
a lower gear.
If a higher gear is selected when
vehicle speed is too low, or a lower
gear when vehicle speed is too high,
the shift is not executed. This can
cause a message in the
Driver-Info-Display.
In manual mode, no automatic
shifting to a higher gear takes place
at high engine revolutions.
Gear shift indication
R with a number next is indicated,
when gear shifting is recommended
for fuel saving reasons.
Shift indication appears only in
manual mode.

142Driving and operating
Rocking the vehicleRocking the vehicle is only
permissible if the vehicle is stuck in
sand, mud or snow. Move the selector lever between R and D in a repeat
pattern. Do not race the engine and
avoid sudden acceleration.
Parking
The most recently engaged gear (see transmission display) remains
engaged when switching off ignition.
With N, no gear is engaged.
Therefore always apply the parking
brake when switching off ignition. If
parking brake is not applied, P flashes
in the transmission display and the
key cannot be removed from the
ignition switch. P stops flashing in the
transmission display as soon as the
parking brake is slightly applied.
When the ignition is switched off, the
transmission no longer responds to
movement of the selector lever.Tyre pressure monitoring
system
To start the sensor matching process of the tyre pressure monitoring
system, the selector lever must be
moved and hold in position N for
five seconds. P illuminates in the
transmission display to indicate that
the sensor matching process can be
started.
Tyre pressure monitoring system
3 200.
Manual mode
If a higher gear is selected when the
engine speed is too low, or a lower
gear when the speed is too high, the
shift is not executed. This prevents
the engine from running at too low or
too high an engine speed. A warning
message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre. Vehicle
messages 3 100.
If engine speed is too low, the
transmission automatically shifts to a
lower gear.If engine speed is too high, the
transmission only switches to a higher gear via kickdown.
When + or - is selected in automatic
mode, the transmission switches to
manual mode and shifts accordingly.
Gear shift indication R with a number next is indicated,
when gear shifting is recommended
for fuel saving reasons.
Shift indication appears only in
manual mode.
Electronic driving
programmes ■ Following a cold start, the operating
temperature programme increasesengine speed to quickly bring the
catalytic converter to the required
temperature.
■ The adaptive programme tailors gearshifting to the driving
conditions, e.g. greater load or
gradients.

Advanced parking assist is always
combined with front-rear parking assist, see previous section. Both
systems use the same sensors in the front and rear bumper.
Button D and operation logic
Advanced parking assist and front-
rear parking assist both use the same
button for activation and deactivation:
A brief press of button D activates
or deactivates the parking assist.
Long press of button D (approx.
one second) activates or deactivates
the advanced parking assist, see
separate description below.
Button logic operates the systems by
pressing D as follows:
■ If only front-rear parking assist is active, a brief press deactivates
front-rear parking assist.
■ If only front-rear parking assist is active, long press activates
advanced parking assist.
■ If only advanced parking assist is active and the system is in parking
slot searching mode, a brief press
activates front-rear parking assist.
■ If only advanced parking assist is active and the system is in park
guiding mode, a brief press
deactivates advanced parking
assist.
■ If only advanced parking assist is active, long press deactivates
advanced parking assist.
■ If forward gear or neutral is selected, a brief press activates ordeactivates only front parking
assist.
■ If reverse gear is selected, a brief press activates or deactivates frontand rear parking assist.Activation
When searching for a parking slot, the
system is ready to operate with a long press of button D.
The system recognises and
memorises (10 metres for parallel
parking slots or six metres for
perpendicular parking slots) even in
the parking assist mode. Long press
of button D activates advanced
parking assist to start parking
manoeuvre.

6. Press the SET/CLR button to
begin the sensor matching process. A message requesting
acceptance of the process should
display.
7. Press the SET/CLR button again
to confirm the selection. The horn sounds twice to signal the
receiver is in relearn mode.
8. Start with the left side front wheel.
9. Place the relearn tool against the tyre sidewall, near the valve stem.Then press the button to activate
the TPMS sensor. A horn chirp
confirms that the sensor
identification code has been
matched to this wheel position.
10. Proceed to the right side front wheel, and repeat the procedure
in Step 9.
11. Proceed to the right side rear wheel, and repeat the procedure
in Step 9.
12. Proceed to the left side rear wheel, and repeat the procedure
in Step 9. The horn sounds twice
to indicate the sensoridentification code has been
matched to the left side rear
wheel, and the TPMS sensor
matching process is no longer
active.
13. Turn off the ignition.
14. Set all four tyres to the recommended air pressure level
as indicated on the tyre pressure
label.
15. Ensure the tyre loading status is set according selected pressure
3 93.
Temperature dependency Tyre pressure depends on the
temperature of the tyre. During
driving tyre temperature and pressure increase.
The tyre pressure value displayed in
the DIC shows the actual tyre
pressure. Therefore it is important to
check tyre pressure with cold tyres.
Tread depth Check tread depth at regular
intervals.Tyres should be replaced for safety
reasons at a tread depth of 2-3 mm
(4 mm for winter tyres).
For safety reasons it is recommended
that the tread depth of the tyres on
one axle should not vary by more than
2 mm.
The legally permissible minimum
tread depth (1.6 mm) has been
reached when the tread has worn
down as far as one of the tread wear
indicators (TWI). Their position is
indicated by markings on the
sidewall.
