Brake system
The brakes are an important factor for
traffic safety.
To improve effectiveness, do not brake
unnecessarily hard for the first 125 miles
(200 km) after new brake pads have been
fitted.
Brake pad wear must not exceed a
specified limit. Regular maintenance as
detailed in the Service Booklet is therefore
of the utmost importance for traffic safety.
Have worn brake pads replaced. We
recommend that you consult your Vauxhall
Authorised Repairer, who will fit pads that
have been tested and approved by
Vauxhall and guarantee optimum braking
power.

Brake assist
If the brake pedal is slammed on, the
vehicle is automatically braked with
maximum brake force amplification in
order to achieve the shortest possible
braking distance when full-on braking
occurs (braking assist).
Maintain steady pressure on the brake
pedal for as long as full-on braking is to
continue. When the brake pedal is
released, the maximum brake force
amplification is taken away.
Adaptive brake light
During full-on braking, all three brake
lights flash for the duration of ABS control.
