230 Driving and Operating Do Not Use ACC on Hills and
When Towing a Trailer
Do not use ACC when driving on
steep hills or when towing a trailer.
ACC will not detect a vehicle in the
lane while driving on steep hills. The
driver will often need to take over
acceleration and braking on steep
hills, especially when towing a
trailer. If the brakes are applied, the
ACC disengages.
Disengaging ACC
There are three ways to
disengage ACC:
.
Step lightly on the brake pedal.
.
Press
* .
.
Press
J . Erasing Speed Memory
The cruise control set speed is
erased from memory if
J is
pressed or if the ignition is
turned off.
Cleaning the Sensing System
The camera sensor on the
windshield behind the rearview
mirror and the radar sensors on the
front of the vehicle can become
blocked by snow, ice, dirt, or mud.
These areas need to be cleaned for
ACC to operate properly.
For cleaning instructions, see
“ Washing the Vehicle ” under
Exterior Care 0 333 .
System operation may also be
limited under snow, heavy rain,
or road spray conditions. Driver Assistance
Systems This vehicle may have features that
work together to help avoid crashes
or reduce crash damage while
driving, backing, and parking. Read
this entire section before using
these systems.
{ WarningDo not rely on the Driver
Assistance Systems. These
systems do not replace the need
for paying attention and driving
safely. You may not hear or feel
alerts or warnings provided by
these systems. Failure to use
proper care when driving may

238 Driving and Operating
{ WarningFCA is a warning system and
does not apply the brakes. When
approaching a slower-moving or
stopped vehicle ahead too rapidly,
or when following a vehicle too
closely, FCA may not provide a
warning with enough time to help
avoid a crash. It also may not
provide any warning at all. FCA
does not warn of pedestrians,
animals, signs, guardrails,
bridges, construction barrels,
or other objects. Be ready to take
action and apply the brakes. See
Defensive Driving 0 193 .
FCA can be disabled with the FCA
steering wheel control, or if your
vehicle is equipped with Adaptive
Cruise Control (ACC), through
vehicle personalization. See the
“ Auto Collision Preparation ” portion
of “ Collision/Detection Systems ”
under Vehicle
Personalization 0 157 . Detecting the Vehicle Ahead
FCA warnings will not occur unless
the FCA system detects a vehicle
ahead. When a vehicle is detected,
the vehicle ahead indicator will
display green. Vehicles may not be
detected on curves, highway exit
ramps, or hills, due to poor visibility;
or if a vehicle ahead is partially
blocked by pedestrians or other
objects. FCA will not detect another
vehicle ahead until it is completely
in the driving lane.
{ Warning
FCA does not provide a warning
to help avoid a crash, unless it
detects a vehicle. FCA may not
detect a vehicle ahead if the FCA
sensor is blocked by dirt, snow,
(Continued) Warning (Continued) or ice, or if the windshield is
damaged. It may also not detect a
vehicle on winding or hilly roads,
or in conditions that can limit
visibility such as fog, rain,
or snow, or if the headlamps or
windshield are not cleaned or in
proper condition. Keep the
windshield, headlamps, and FCA
sensors clean and in good repair.

240 Driving and Operating Cleaning the System If the FCA system does not seem to
operate properly, cleaning the
outside of the windshield in front of
the rearview mirror, and cleaning the
front of the vehicle where radar
sensors are located, may correct
the issue.
Front Automatic Braking
(FAB) System If the vehicle has Forward Collision
Alert (FCA), it also has FAB, which
includes Intelligent Brake
Assist (IBA). When the system
detects a vehicle ahead in your path
that is traveling in the same
direction that you may be about to
crash into, it can provide a boost to
braking or automatically brake the
vehicle. This can help avoid or
lessen the severity of crashes when
driving in a forward gear. Depending
on the situation, the vehicle may
automatically brake moderately or
hard. This front automatic braking
can only occur if a vehicle is
detected. This is shown by the FCA vehicle ahead indicator being lit.
See Forward Collision Alert (FCA)
System 0 237 .
The system works when driving in a
forward gear between 8 km/h
(5 mph) and 80 km/h (50 mph),
or on vehicles with Adaptive Cruise
Control (ACC), above 4 km/h
(2 mph). It can detect vehicles up to
approximately 60 m (197 ft).
{ WarningFAB is an emergency crash
preparation feature and is not
designed to avoid crashes. Do
not rely on FAB to brake the
vehicle. FAB will not brake
outside of its operating speed
range and only responds to
detected vehicles.
FAB may not:
.
Detect a vehicle ahead on
winding or hilly roads.
(Continued) Warning (Continued) .
Detect all vehicles,
especially vehicles with a
trailer, tractors, muddy
vehicles, etc.
.
Detect a vehicle when
weather limits visibility, such
as in fog, rain, or snow.
.
Detect a vehicle ahead if it
is partially blocked by
pedestrians or other objects.
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.
FAB may slow the vehicle to a
complete stop to try to avoid a
potential crash. If this happens, FAB
may engage the Electric Parking
Brake (EPB) to hold the vehicle at a
stop. Release the EPB or firmly
press the accelerator pedal.

242 Driving and Operating During nighttime driving, system
performance is very limited. If the
vehicle is equipped with the Night
Vision system, during nighttime
driving, the vehicle can detect and
alert to pedestrians whenever in a
forward gear.
{ WarningFPB does not provide an alert or
automatically brake the vehicle,
unless it detects a pedestrian.
FPB may not detect pedestrians,
including children:
.
When the pedestrian is not
directly ahead, fully visible,
or standing upright, or when
part of a group.
.
Due to poor visibility,
including nighttime
conditions, fog, rain,
or snow.
.
If the FPB sensor is blocked
by dirt, snow, or ice.
(Continued) Warning (Continued) .
If the headlamps or
windshield are not cleaned
or in proper condition.
Be ready to take action and apply
the brakes. For more information,
see Defensive Driving 0 193 .
Keep the windshield, headlamps,
and FPB sensor clean and in
good repair.
FPB can be set to Off, Alert, or Alert
& Brake through vehicle
personalization. See “ Front
Pedestrian Detection ” in “ Collision/
Detection Systems ” under Vehicle
Personalization 0 157 .
Detecting the Pedestrian
Ahead FPB alerts and automatic braking
will not occur unless the FPB
system detects a pedestrian. When
a nearby pedestrian is detected
directly in front of the vehicle, the
pedestrian ahead indicator will
display amber.
Front Pedestrian Alert
With Head-Up Display

Driving and Operating 245Use this system as an aid by
occasionally glancing at the image.
Do not stare at the image or use the
image under well-lit conditions.
{ WarningDo not stare at the image while
driving as this might cause
important objects ahead not to be
seen. You could crash, and you
or others could be injured.
When a pedestrian or large animal
is detected, an amber box displays
around the pedestrian or animal on
the Night Vision display and an
amber pedestrian icon,
~ , or animal
icon,
! , displays on the instrument
cluster. This pedestrian icon is also
shown on the Head-Up Display
(HUD). When the system detects
the vehicle is approaching a
pedestrian much too quickly, the
amber box turns red, and a red
flashing icon,
~ , displays on the
HUD with rapid beeping or pulsing
of the Safety Alert Seat, if equipped. System pedestrian icons, beeps,
and (if equipped) Safety Alert Seat
pulses can be set to Off through
vehicle personalization by turning
off the Front Pedestrian Braking
system. See “ Front Pedestrian
Detection ” in “ Collision/Detection
Systems ” under Vehicle
Personalization 0 157 .
{ WarningThe Night Vision system does not
automatically brake the vehicle.

detects a pedestrian or large
animal. The system may not
detect pedestrians, including
children, or animals:
.
If they are less than 25 m
(82 ft) away.
.
If they are not directly
ahead in the sensor
coverage area, fully visible,
standing upright, or part of a
group.
(Continued) Warning (Continued) .
If the pedestrian or animal is
moving too quickly through
the field of view, such as a
bicyclist.
.
If the pedestrian is wearing
certain types of clothing.
.
If headlamps are off, except
when parked.
.
If the outside temperature is
higher than 30 °C (86 °F).
.
Due to poor visibility,
including in heavy fog, rain,
or snow.
.

Vehicle Care 311.
The TPMS sensor matching
process was not done or not
completed successfully after
rotating the tires. The
malfunction light and the DIC
message should go off after
successfully completing the
sensor matching process. See
"TPMS Sensor Matching
Process" later in this section.
.
One or more TPMS sensors are
missing or damaged. The
malfunction light and the DIC
message should go off when the
TPMS sensors are installed and
the sensor matching process is
performed successfully. See
your dealer for service.
.
Replacement tires or wheels do
not match the original equipment
tires or wheels. Tires and wheels
other than those recommended
could prevent the TPMS from
functioning properly. See Buying
New Tires 0 315 . .
Operating electronic devices or
being near facilities using radio
wave frequencies similar to the
TPMS could cause the TPMS
sensors to malfunction.
If the TPMS is not functioning
properly, it cannot detect or signal a
low tire condition. See your dealer
for service if the TPMS malfunction
light and DIC message come on
and stay on.
TPMS Sensor Matching
Process Each TPMS sensor has a unique
identification code. The identification
code needs to be matched to a new
tire/wheel position after rotating the
vehicle ’ s tires or replacing one or
more of the TPMS sensors. The
TPMS sensor matching process
should also be performed after
replacing a spare tire with a road
tire containing the TPMS sensor.
The malfunction light and the DIC
message should go off at the next
ignition cycle. The sensors are
matched to the tire/wheel positions,
using a TPMS relearn tool, in the
following order: driver side front tire, passenger side front tire, passenger
side rear tire, and driver side rear
tire. See your dealer for service or
to purchase a relearn tool. A TPMS
relearn tool can also be purchased.
See Tire Pressure Monitor Sensor
Activation Tool at
www.gmtoolsandequipment.com or
call 1-800-GM TOOLS
(1-800-468-6657).
There are two minutes to match the
first tire/wheel position, and
five minutes overall to match all four
tire/wheel positions. If it takes
longer, the matching process stops
and must be restarted.
The TPMS sensor matching
process is:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Place the vehicle power mode
in ON/RUN/START. See
Ignition Positions 0 202 .
3. Make sure the Tire Pressure
info display option is turned on.
The info displays on the DIC
can be turned on and off
