If it is illuminated:
Fault in the system. The system is not ready
for operation. Have the fault remedied.
We recommend that you consult your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer. The
system’s integrated self-diagnostics allows
faults to be quickly remedied.
If it flashes
The fault is due to sensors obstructed
with snow or ice. The sensors must be
undamaged and free of dirt, snow and ice.
Interference due to external sources of
ultrasound (e.g. pneumatic drills, rotary
machines). Once the source of interference
is removed, the system will operate
normally.

caravan / trailer towing
The system automatically detects if a
towbar is properly fitted to the vehicle.
When towing, parking distance sensors are
automatically deactivated when the trailer
cable is plugged into the socket.
Fitting rear load racks
3
Rear load racks, e.g. bicycle racks, fitted
near the sensors could disrupt the system.
