Symbols and Guidelines
The RVC system may have a
feature that lets the driver view
parking assist symbols on the
infotainment screen while using the
RVC. The Rear Parking Assist
(RPA) system must not be disabled
to use the caution symbols. The
error message Rear Parking Assist
Symbols Unavailable may display if
RPA has been disabled and the
symbols have been turned on. See
Parking Assist 0178
ii. Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
On vehicles with RCTA, a triangle
with an arrow may display on the
RVC screen to warn of traffic
coming from either direction. This
system detects objects coming from
up to 20 m (65 ft) from the left or
right side, behind the vehicle. When
an object is detected, three beeps
sound from the left or right side,
depending on the direction of the
detected vehicle.
The parking assist and RCTA
symbols appear and may cover an
object when viewing the
infotainment screen when an object
is detected by the RPA or RCTA
system.
The RVC system may also have a
guideline overlay that can help the
driver align the vehicle when
backing into a parking spot.
To turn the symbols or guidelines on
or off:
1. Shift into P (Park).
2. Press the CONFIG button.
3. Select Display Settings. 4. Select Rear Camera Options.
5. Select Symbols or Guide Lines.
The feature is on when a check
mark appears next to it.
RCTA can be turned on or off
through vehicle personalization. See
“Collision Detection Systems” under
Vehicle Personalization 0120

(5 mph), and the sensors on the rear
bumper detect objects up to 2.5 m
(8 ft) behind the vehicle, and at least
20 cm (8 in) off the ground. The
distance objects can be detected
may be less during warmer or humid
weather.
{Warning
The parking assist system does
not detect children, pedestrians,
bicyclists, animals, or objects
below the bumper or that are too
close or too far from the vehicle.
It is not available at speeds
greater than 8 km/h (5 mph). To
prevent injury, death, or vehicle
damage, even with parking assist,
always check the area around the
vehicle and check all mirrors
before backing.
How the System Works
RPA comes on automatically when
the shift lever is moved into
R (Reverse). A single beep sounds
to indicate the system is working.RPA operates only at speeds less
than 8 km/h (5 mph).
A detected obstacle is indicated by
audible beeps. The interval between
the beeps becomes shorter as the
vehicle gets closer to the obstacle.
When the distance is less than
30 cm (12 in) the beeping is
continuous for five seconds.
Turning the System On and Off
The RPA system can be turned on
and off using the infotainment
system controls. See
Vehicle
Personalization 0120
ii.
The On with Tow Bar Attached
setting allows for the parking assist
to work properly with a small item
attached to the trailer hitch.
When the system is off, PARK
ASSIST OFF displays on the Driver
Information Center (DIC). The
message disappears after a short
period of time.
RPA defaults to the On setting each
time the vehicle is started.
Turn RPA off when towing a trailer.
When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
The following messages may be
displayed on the DIC:
SERVICE PARKING ASSIST : If
this message occurs, check the
following conditions:
. The sensors are not clean. Keep
the vehicle's rear bumper free of
mud, dirt, snow, ice, and slush.
For cleaning instructions, see
Exterior Care 0263
ii.
. The parking assist sensors are
covered by frost or ice. Frost or
ice can form around and behind
the sensors and may not always
be seen; this can occur after
washing the vehicle in cold
weather. The message may not
clear until the frost or ice has
melted.
If the above conditions do not exist,
take the vehicle to your dealer to
repair the system.

Customer Information
Customer Satisfaction
Procedure
Your satisfaction and goodwill are
important to your dealer and to
Chevrolet. Normally, any concerns
with the sales transaction or the
operation of the vehicle will be
resolved by your dealer's sales or
service departments. Sometimes,
however, despite the best intentions
of all concerned, misunderstandings
can occur. If your concern has not
been resolved to your satisfaction,
the following steps should be taken:
STEP ONE : Discuss your concern
with a member of dealership
management. Normally, concerns
can be quickly resolved at that level.
If the matter has already been
reviewed with the sales, service,
or parts manager, contact the owner
of your dealership or the general
manager.
STEP TWO : If after contacting a
member of dealership management,
it appears your concern cannot be
