2019 VAUXHALL COMBO E brake light

Driving and operating177longer detects any vehicle ahead,
then control indicator A will
extinguish.
If the centrifugal force is too high in a
bend, the system slows down the vehicle slightly. This braking level is
not designed to avoid spinning-off the
bend. The driver is responsible for
reducing the selected speed before
entering a bend and in general to
adapt the speed to the road type and
to existing speed limits.
Motorways
On motorways, adapt the set speed
to the situation and the weather.
Always consider that adaptive cruise
control has a limited visibility range, a
limited braking level and a certain
reaction time to verify if a vehicle is on
the driving path or not. Adaptive
cruise control may not be able to
brake the vehicle in time to avoid a
collision with a much slower vehicle or after a lane change. This is
particularly true while driving fast or if the visibility is reduced due to weather
conditions.
While entering or exiting a motorway,
adaptive cruise control may lose the
vehicle ahead and accelerate up to
the set speed. For this reason,
decrease the set speed before the
exit or before the entry.
Vehicle path changes
If another vehicle enters your driving
path, adaptive cruise control will first
consider the vehicle when it is
completely in your path. Be ready to
take action and depress the brake
pedal, if you need to brake more
quickly.
Hill considerations9 Warning
Do not use the adaptive cruise
control on steep hill roads.
System performance on hills depends
on vehicle speed, vehicle load, traffic
conditions and the road gradient. It
may not detect a vehicle in your path
while driving on hills. On steep hills,
you may have to use the accelerator
pedal to maintain your vehicle speed.
When going downhill you may have to brake to maintain or reduce your
speed.
Note that applying the brake
deactivates the system.

178Driving and operatingFault
In the event of a fault with the adaptive
cruise control, you are alerted by the
illumination of a warning light and the display of a message in the
instrument panel, accompanied by an
audible signal.
The adaptive cruise control may not
operate correctly if traffic signs do not comply with the Vienna Convention
on Road Signs and Signals.
Have the system checked by a dealer
or a qualified workshop.
As a safety measure, do not use the
system if the brake lights are faulty.
Forward collision alert The forward collision alert may help toavoid or reduce the harm caused by
front-end crashes.
The forward collision alert uses the front camera in the windscreen to
detect a preceding vehicle directly
ahead, in your path.If a vehicle directly ahead is
approached too quickly, a warning
chime and alert in the Driver
Information Centre is provided.9 Warning
Forward collision alert is just a
warning system and does not
apply the brakes. When
approaching a vehicle ahead too
rapidly, it may not provide you
enough time to avoid a collision.
The driver accepts full
responsibility for the appropriate
following distance based on traffic, weather and visibility conditions.
The complete attention of the
driver is always required while
driving. The driver must always be
ready to take action and apply the
brakes.
Activation
Forward collision alert detects
vehicles and operates automatically
at all speeds above 3 mph and
53 mph. The system detects
stationary vehicles if the speed does
not exceed 50 mph.
Alerting the driver
The driver is warned by following
alerts:
● Symbol , illuminates and a
warning message is displayed in the Driver Information Centre
when the distance to the vehicle
ahead gets to small.
● Symbol , illuminates, a warning
message is displayed in the
Driver Information Centre and a
warning chime sounds, when a
collision is imminent and
immediate driver's action is
required.

Caution
The colour lighting of this control
indicator does not correspond to
local traffic laws on following
distance. The driver bears full
responsibility for maintaining safe
following distance according to
applicable traffic rules, weather
and road conditions etc. at all
times.
Selecting the alert sensitivity
The alert sensitivity has to be set to
close, normal or distant in the vehicle personalisation menu 3 116.
The chosen setting will remain until it
is changed. The alert timing will vary
based on vehicle speed. The faster
the vehicle speed, the farther away
the alert will occur. Consider traffic
and weather conditions when
selecting the alert timing.
Deactivation The system can only be deactivated
by deactivating the active emergency
braking in the vehicle personalisation
3 116.
System limitations
Forward collision alert is designed to
warn on vehicles only, but may react
also to other objects.
In the following cases, forward
collision alert may not detect a vehicle ahead or sensor performance is
limited:
● driving on winding or hilly roads
● driving during nighttime
● weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow
● the sensor in the windscreen is blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud,dirt etc.
● the windscreen is damaged or affected by foreign objects, e.g.
stickers
Active emergency braking
Active emergency braking can help to reduce the damage and injury from
crashes with vehicles, pedestrians
and obstacles directly ahead, when a
collision can no longer be avoided
either by manual braking or by
steering. Before the active
emergency braking applies, the driver is warned by the forward collision
alert or the front pedestrian protection
alert.

Driving and operating181Emergency automatic braking may
slow the vehicle to a complete stop to
try to avoid a potential crash.
● Automatic transmission: If the vehicle comes to a complete
stop, automatic braking is
maintained for up to two
seconds. Keep the brake pedal
depressed to prevent the vehicle
from starting off again.
● Manual transmission: If the vehicle comes to a complete
stop, the engine may stall.
Operation of the function may be felt
by a slight vibration in the brake
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.
System limitations
In some cases, the active emergencybraking system may provide an
automatic braking in situations that
seem 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 infog, rain, or snow.
● Driving during nighttime.
● The windscreen is damaged or affected by foreign items, e.g.
stickers.Complete 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.
We recommend to deactivate the system in the vehicle personalisation
in the following cases:
● when towing a trailer or caravan
● when carrying long objects on roof bars or a roof rack
● when the vehicle is being towed with the engine running
● when a spare wheel is fitted that is smaller than the other wheels
● before using an automatic car wash with the engine running
● before placing the vehicle on a rolling road in a workshop
● if the windscreen has been damaged close to the camera
● if the front bumper has been damaged
● if the brake lamps are not working

198Driving and operating● weather limits visibility, such asfog, rain, or snow
● the camera lenses are blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud, dirt.Clean the lense, rinse with water,
and wipe with a soft cloth
● the tailgate will be opened
● the vehicle is towing an electrically connected trailer,
bicycle carrier, etc.
● the vehicle had a rear end accident
● there are extreme temperature changes
Lane keep assist
Lane keep assist helps to avoid
crashes due to unintentional lane
departures. A front camera located at the top of the windscreen observes
the lane markings between which the
vehicle is driving. If the vehicle
approaches a lane marking, the
steering wheel is gently turned to
position the vehicle back into the lane. The driver will then notice a turning
movement of the steering wheel. Turn steering wheel in same direction, ifsystem steers not sufficient. Turn
steering wheel gently into opposite
direction, if lane change is intended.
When the system steers to correct the trajectory of the vehicle, a flashes
yellow in the instrument cluster.
A warning message in the Driver
Information Centre accompanied by a
warning chime alerts the driver when
immediate driver´s action is required.
Unintended lane departure is not
assumed by the system when the turn lights are operated and during 20 s
after turn lights have been switched off.
Notice
The system may be switched off if it
detects lanes which are too narrow, too wide or too curved.
Following preconditions have to be
fullfilled:
● vehicle speed must be between 40 mph and 112 mph
● the driver must hold the steering wheel with both hands● the change of trajectory is notaccompanied by operation of theturn signals
● the Electronic Stability Control is activated and not in operation
● the vehicle is not connected to a trailer or an electric bicycle carrier
● normal driving behaviour (system
detects dynamic driving style, i.e. pressure on the brake or
accelerator pedal)
● roads with poor lane markings
● no spare wheel is used
● the driver needs to be active during the correction
● the vehicle is not driven in a tight
corner

Driving and operating205Trailer hitch
General information
Only use towing equipment that has
been approved for your vehicle.
Entrust retrofitting of towing
equipment to a workshop. It may be
necessary to make changes that
affect the cooling system, heat
shields or other equipment.
The bulb outage detection function for trailer brake light cannot detect a
partial bulb outage e.g. in case of four
bulbs with a power of 5 W each, the
function only detects lamp outage
when only a single 5 W lamp remains
or none remain.
Fitting of towing equipment could
cover the opening of the towing eye.
If this is the case use the coupling ball
bar for towing. Always keep the
coupling ball bar in the vehicle to have it on hand if needed.Driving characteristics and
towing tips
Before attaching a trailer, lubricate
the coupling ball. However, do not do
so if a stabiliser, which acts on the
coupling ball, is being used to reduce
snaking movements.
During trailer towing do not exceed a
speed of 50 mph. A maximum speed
of 60 mph is only appropriate if an
oscillation damper is used and the
permissible gross trailer weight does
not exceed the vehicle's curb weight.
For trailers with low driving stability
and caravan trailers, the use of an
oscillation damper is strongly
recommended.
If the trailer starts snaking, drive more slowly, do not attempt to correct the
steering and brake sharply if
necessary.
When driving downhill, drive in the
same gear as if driving uphill and
drive at a similar speed.
Adjust tyre pressure to the value
specified for full load 3 262.Trailer towing
Trailer loads The permissible trailer loads are
vehicle and engine-dependent
maximum values which must not be
exceeded. The actual trailer load is
the difference between the actual
gross weight of the trailer and the
actual coupling socket load with the
trailer coupled.
The permissible trailer loads are
specified in the vehicle documents. In general, they are valid for gradients
up to 12%.
The permissible trailer load applies
up to the specified incline and at sea
level. Since engine power decreases
as altitude increases due to the air becoming thinner, therefore reducing
climbing ability, the permissible gross
train weight also decreases by 10%
for every 1000 metres of altitude. The gross train weight does not have to be reduced when driving on roads with
slight inclines (less than 8%, e.g.
motorways).
