When the catalytic converter reaches a critical temperature the overrun fuel cut-off device will be deactivated to avoid early ageing of the cat. This happens especially in lean combustion operation e.g. in overrun condition after high speed drive. The a.m. description is also included in the owners manual since Vectra-C (page 181) and will be introduced for all other carlines step by step.
