126 Driving and operating Parking brake Fault If the brake pedal is depressed quickly and forcefully, maximum brake force is automatically applied (full braking). Maintain steady pressure on the brake pedal for as long as full braking is required. Maximum brake force is automatically reduced when the brake pedal is released. 9 Warning If there is a fault in the ABS, the wheels may be liable to lock due to braking that is heavier than normal. The advantages of ABS are no longer available.
Driving and operating Ride control systems Electronic stability program Electronic stability program (ESP®Plus) improves driving stability when necessary, regardless of the type of road surface or tyre grip. It also prevents the drive wheels from spinning. As soon as the vehicle starts to swerve (understeer/oversteer), engine output is reduced and the wheels are braked individually. This considerably improves the driving stability of the vehicle on slippery road surfaces.
128 Driving and operating Cruise control The cruise control can store and maintain speeds of approx. 20 to 120 mph. Deviations from the stored speeds may occur when driving uphill or downhill. For safety reasons the cruise control cannot be activated until the foot brake has been operated once.

Always use fine mesh chains that add no more than 10 mm to the tyre tread and the inboard sides (including chain lock). 9 Warning Damage may lead to tyre blowout. 2) Tyre chains are just permitted on tyre sizes 175/70 R 14, 185/60 R 15, 185/65 R 152), 185/70 R 14, 195/55 R 162) and 205/50 R16. Tyre chains are only approved on tyres of size 185/60 R 15 on vehicles with a sports chassis.
Vehicle care To open the compartment, disengage the cover and open it. 1. Take the sealant bottle and bracket with air hose from the insert. 171 3. Position the sealant bottle on the bracket. Make sure that the bottle does not fall. 2. Detach air hose from bracket and screw onto sealant bottle connection. 4. Unscrew valve cap from defective tyre. 5. Screw tyre inflation hose to valve. 6. Screw air hose onto compressor connection. 7. Switch on ignition.
172 Vehicle care 8. Press on/off switch on the compressor. The tyre is filled with sealant. 9. The compressor pressure gauge briefly indicates up to 6 bar whilst the sealant bottle is emptying (approx. 30 seconds). Then the pressure starts to drop. 10. All of the sealant is pumped into the tyre. Then the tyre is inflated. 11. The prescribed tyre pressure should be obtained within 10 minutes. Tyre pressure 3 209.
Vehicle care Notice The driving characteristics of the repaired tyre is severely affected, therefore have this tyre replaced. If unusual noise is heard or the compressor becomes hot, turn compressor off for at least 30 minutes. The built-in safety valve opens at a pressure of 7 bar. Note the expiry date of the kit. After this date its sealing capability is no longer guaranteed. Pay attention to storage information on sealant bottle. Replace the used sealant bottle.
174 Vehicle care Alloy wheels: Disengage wheel bolt caps with a screwdriver and remove. To protect the wheel, place a soft cloth between the screwdriver and the alloy wheel. 2. Install the wheel wrench ensuring that it locates securely and slacken each bolt by half a turn. 3. Ensure the jack is positioned correctly with the vehicle jacking points. With versions of the Corsa VXR with sill panelling or retrofitted sill panelling no jack must be used. The vehicle may be damaged. 4.
Vehicle care 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Variant 2: Attach jack handle and with the jack correctly aligned rotate handle until wheel is clear of the ground. Unscrew the wheel bolts. Change the wheel. Screw in the wheel bolts. Lower vehicle. Install the wheel wrench ensuring that it locates securely and tighten each bolt in a crosswise sequence. Tightening torque is 110 Nm. 10. Align the valve hole in the wheel cover with the tyre valve before installing. Install wheel bolt caps. 11.
176 Vehicle care In the Corsa van the spare wheel is screwed down together with the floor cover. To lift the cover, undo the plastic nut. There is a spacer between the spare wheel and the floor cover. The spare wheel well is not designed for all permitted tyre sizes. If a wheel wider than the spare must be stowed in the spare wheel well after changing wheels, the floor cover will be resting against the protruding wheel.
Vehicle care Notice Any deviation from the instructions given in this paragraph may lead to a temporary deactivation of the stopstart 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.
178 Vehicle care 4. Switch on electrical consumers (e.g. headlights, heated rear window) of the vehicle receiving the jump start. 5. Reverse above sequence exactly when removing leads. 6. Close the cover over the positive pole. Position the leads so that they cannot catch on rotating parts in the engine compartment. To start the engine: 1. Start the engine of the vehicle providing the jump. 2. After 5 minutes, start the other engine.
Vehicle care The towing eye is stowed with the vehicle tools 3 165. The towing eye is located in a recess. Screw in the towing eye as far as it will go until it stops in a horizontal position. Attach a tow rope – or better still a tow rod – to the towing eye. The towing eye must only be used for towing and not recovering the vehicle. Switch on ignition to release steering wheel lock and to permit operation of brake lights, horn and windscreen wiper. Transmission in neutral. Caution Drive slowly.
180 Vehicle care Disengage cap at bottom and remove downwards. The towing eye is stowed with the vehicle tools 3 165. Caution Drive slowly. Do not drive jerkily. Excessive tractive force can damage the vehicle. After towing, unscrew the towing eye and refit the cover. Appearance care Exterior care Locks The locks are lubricated at the factory using a high quality lock cylinder grease. Use de-icing agent only when absolutely necessary, as this has a degreasing effect and impairs lock function.
Vehicle care If using a car wash, comply with the car wash manufacturer's instructions. The windscreen wipers and rear window wiper must be switched off. Remove antenna and external accessories such as roof racks etc. If you wash your vehicle by hand, make sure that the insides of the wheel housings are also thoroughly rinsed out. Clean edges and folds on opened doors and the bonnet as well as the areas they cover. Caution Always use a cleaning agent with a pH value of 4 to 9.
182 Vehicle care Clean rims with a pH-neutral wheel cleaner. Rims are painted and can be treated with the same agents as the body. Paintwork damage Rectify minor paintwork damage with a touch-up pen before rust forms. Have more extensive damage or rust areas repaired by a workshop. Underbody Some areas of the vehicle underbody have a PVC undercoating while other critical areas have a durable protective wax coating. After the underbody is washed, check the underbody and have it waxed if necessary.
Vehicle care Caution Close Velcro fasteners as open Velcro fasteners on clothing could damage seat upholstery. The same applies to clothing with sharp-edged objects, like zips or belts or studded jeans. Plastic and rubber parts Plastic and rubber parts can be cleaned with the same cleaner as used to clean the body. Use interior cleaner if necessary. Do not use any other agent. Avoid solvents and petrol in particular. Do not use highpressure jet cleaners.
