2018.5 OPEL GRANDLAND X parking brake

166Driving and operatingopened and the driver's seat belt is
unfastened, then the electric parking
brake is applied automatically to hold the vehicle. Control indicator m will
illuminate. To release electric parking
brake, press the accelerator pedal.
Electric parking brake 3 152.9 Warning
When the system is deactivated or
cancelled, the vehicle will no
longer be held at a stop and can
start moving. Be always prepared
to manually apply the brake to hold the vehicle stationary.
Do not leave the vehicle while it is
being held at a stop by adaptive
cruise control. Always move
selector lever to park position P
and switch off the ignition before
leaving the vehicle.
Setting the following distance
When adaptive cruise control detects
a slower moving vehicle in the driving path, it will adjust the vehicle speed tomaintain the following distance
selected by the driver.
The following distance can be set to
close (1 bar), normal (2 bars) or far (3 bars).
If the engine is running and the
adaptive cruise control is enabled
(grey), you can modify the following
distance setting:
Press Ö, the current setting is shown
in the Driver Information Centre.
Press Ö again to change the following
distance: The new setting is
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
The selected following distance is
indicated by full bars in the adaptive
cruise control page.9 Warning
The driver accepts full
responsibility for the appropriate
following distance based on traffic, weather and visibility conditions.
Following distance must be
adjusted or the system switched
off when required by the prevailing
conditions.
Detecting the vehicle ahead
If the system detects a vehicle in the
driving path, the adaptive cruise
control symbol displayed in the Driver
Information Centre changes: - is
changed to w.
Deactivation of the functionality
Press Ñ, the adaptive cruise control
is in pause mode and a message is
displayed. The vehicle is driven
without adaptive cruise control.
The adaptive cruise control is
deactivated, but not disabled. The
last stored set speed remains in
memory for later usage.

Driving and operating167The adaptive cruise control is
deactivated automatically when:
● The brake pedal is depressed.
● The vehicle accelerates above 180 km/h or slows down below
30 km/h.
● The electric parking brake is applied.
● The Traction Control system or Electronic Stability Control is
deactivated or operating.
● The selector lever of automatic transmissions is neither in D nor
in M.
● A fault is detected in the Electronic Stability Control or theradar system.
Switching off the system Press C, the adaptive cruise control
mode is disabled and the adaptive
cruise control indication extinguishes
in the Driver Information Centre.
Pressing ß to activate the speed
limiter deactivates adaptive cruise
control.Switching off the ignition deletes the
stored set speed.
Driver's attention ● Use the adaptive cruise control carefully on bends or mountain
roads, as it can lose the vehicle
ahead and needs time to detect it again.
● Do not use the system on slippery roads as it can create
rapid changes in tyre traction
(wheel spinning), so that you
could lose control of the vehicle.
● Do not use the adaptive cruise control during rain, snow or
heavy dirt, as the radar sensor
can be covered by a water film,
dust, ice or snow. This reduces or suppresses completely the
visibility. In case of sensor
blockage, clean the sensor
cover.
● Do not use the system when the spare wheel is in use.System limits9Warning
The system's automatic brake
force does not permit hard braking and the braking level may not be
sufficient to avoid a collision.
● After a sudden lane change, the system needs a certain time to
detect the next preceding
vehicle. So if a new vehicle is
detected, the system may
accelerate instead of braking.
● The adaptive cruise control does ignore the oncoming traffic.
● The adaptive cruise control does not consider pedestrians and
animals for braking and driving
off.
● The adaptive cruise control considers stopped vehicles only
at low speed.

172Driving and operatingActivation
A precondition is that forward collision
alert with front camera system is not
deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation menu 3 106.
Functionality
The system includes: ● brake preparation system
● emergency automatic braking ● forward looking brake assist
● intelligent brake assist (only with radar sensor)
● forward collision alert
● front pedestrian protection
Brake preparation system
When approaching a vehicle ahead
or a pedestrian so quickly that a
collision is likely, the brake
preparation system slightly
pressurises the brakes. This reduces
the response time when a braking is
required.Emergency automatic braking
After activation of brake preparation
system and just before the imminent
collision, this function automatically
applies limited braking to reduce the
impact speed of the collision or
prohibit a crash. If active emergency
braking is applied, m flashes in the
instrument cluster. Depending on the
situation, the vehicle may
automatically brake moderately or
hard. This front automatic braking can
only occur if a vehicle ahead is
detected 3 169 . On vehicles with front
pedestrian protection, front automatic
braking can also occur when a
pedestrian ahead is detected 3 174.
Emergency automatic braking may
slow the vehicle to a complete stop to try to avoid a potential crash. If this
happens, emergency automatic
braking may engage the electric
parking brake to hold the vehicle at a
stop. To release press the electric
parking brake button or firmly press
the accelerator pedal.9 Warning
Emergency automatic braking is
an emergency crash preparation
feature and is not designed to
avoid crashes. Do not rely on the
system to brake the vehicle.
Emergency automatic braking will
not brake outside of its operating speed range and only responds to
detected vehicles and
pedestrians.
Forward looking brake assist
In addition to the brake preparation
system and emergency automatic
braking, the forward looking brake
assist function makes the brake assist more sensitive. Therefore, pressing
the brake pedal less strongly results
in immediate hard braking. This
function helps the driver brake
quicker and harder before the
imminent collision.

174Driving and operatingseem to be unnecessary, for instance
in parking garages, due to traffic signs in a curve or due to vehicles in
another lane. This is normal
operation, the vehicle does not need
service. Firmly apply the accelerator
pedal to override the automatic
braking if the situation and the
surroundings permit.
In the following cases, active
emergency braking performance is limited:
● driving on winding or hilly roads
● detecting all vehicles, especially vehicles with a trailer, tractors,
muddy vehicles, etc.
● detecting a vehicle when weather
limits visibility, such as in fog,
rain, or snow
● driving during nighttime
● sensor in the windscreen or radar
unit behind the front bumper
blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud, dirt, etc.
● windscreen damaged or affected
by foreign objects, e.g. stickersComplete attention is always required
while driving, and you should be
ready to take action and apply the
brakes and / or steer the vehicle to
avoid crashes.
Fault
In case the system requires a service, a message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.
If the system does not work as it
should do, vehicle messages are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
Vehicle messages 3 105.
Front pedestrian protection Front pedestrian protection may help
to avoid or reduce the harm caused
by front-end crashes with pedestrians when driving forward.
The system uses the front camera in
the windscreen and a radar unit in the
front bumper to detect a pedestrian
directly ahead in your path.
Front pedestrian protection can
detect and alert to pedestrians in a forward gear at speeds between5 km/h and 60 km/h. Additionally front
pedestrian protection can provide a
boost to braking or automatically
brake the vehicle.
During nighttime driving, system
performance is limited.9 Danger
Front pedestrian braking does not
provide an alert or automatically
brake the vehicle, unless it detects
a pedestrian.
The system may not detect
pedestrians, including children,
when the pedestrian is not directly ahead, not fully visible, not
standing upright, or when part of a
group.
Front pedestrian protection includes:
● detecting front pedestrian ahead● front pedestrian alert
Front pedestrian protection is
activated together with forward
collision alert.
Forward collision alert 3 169.

178Driving and operatingDeactivation
The system is deactivated
automatically when vehicle speed
exceeds 10 km/h, by applying the
electric parking brake or by pressing
the parking assist button ¼.
When the system is deactivated
manually, the LED in the button
illuminates.
If the system has been deactivated
manually, it is not reactivated
automatically the next time the
ignition is switched on.
System limitations In the event of a fault or if the system does not work temporarily, e.g.
because of high external noise level
or other interference factors, H
illuminates in the instrument cluster.
A message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.9 Warning
Under certain circumstances,
various reflective surfaces on
objects or clothing as well as
external noise sources may cause the system to fail to detect
obstacles.
Special attention must be paid to
low obstacles which can damage
the lower part of the bumper.Caution
Performance of the system can be reduced when sensors are
covered, e.g. by ice or snow.
Performance of the parking assist
system can be reduced due to
heavy loading.
Special conditions apply if there
are taller vehicles in the vicinity
(e.g. off-road vehicles, mini vans,
vans). Object identification and correct distance indication in the
upper part of these vehicles
cannot be guaranteed.
Objects with a very small reflection
cross-section, e.g. objects of
narrow size or soft materials, may
not be detected by the system.
Parking assist systems do not
detect objects outside the
detection range.
Advanced parking assist
9 Warning
The driver bears full responsibility
for accepting the parking slot
suggested by the system and the
parking manoeuvre.
Always check the surrounding
area in all directions when using
the advanced parking assist.
The advanced parking assist
measures a suitable parking slot
while passing, calculates the
trajectory and automatically steers
the vehicle while parking.
Advanced parking assist provides
assistance for the following
manoeuvres:
● entry into a parallel parking slot
● entry into a perpendicular parking
slot
● exit from a parallel parking slot

Vehicle care203Caution
