Map Updates
Super Cruise map information must
be periodically updated at least once
every seven months to determine
whether Super Cruise is available on
certain roads. Turn on the vehicle’s
built-in Wi-Fi hotspot to receive
automatic updates via OnStar, or see
your dealer. See the following
region-based websites for Super Cruise
map open source compliance
documentation, including the license
information:
Disabling the vehicle's Wi-Fi or
Location Services will disable
automatic map updates. Super Cruise
will stop functioning after seven
months or less, depending on the time
of the last map update.

7E2/supercruiseData Download
Super Cruise uses the Wi-Fi hotspot in
the vehicle to download map updates
and GPS enhancement data to the
vehicle. If a mobile device with its
own Wi-Fi hotspot is brought into the
vehicle and its Service Set Identifier
(SSID) and password are the same as
the OnStar Wi-Fi hotspot, then the
vehicle may connect to the mobile
device’s Wi-Fi hotspot to download
the data. See
Connections0423.
To prevent usage of a mobile device
data plan, do one of the following:
. Do not use the same SSID and
password for the OnStar Wi-Fi
hotspot and a mobile device.
. Disable the personal mobile device
Wi-Fi hotspot when inside the
vehicle.
If the vehicle is equipped with OnStar
and has an active service plan,
additional data may be collected
through the OnStar system. This
includes information about: the
vehicle’s operation; a crash involving the vehicle; the use of the vehicle and
its features; and, in certain situations,
the location and approximate GPS
speed of the vehicle. Refer to the
OnStar Terms and Conditions and
Privacy Statement on the OnStar
website.
Location Services
This setting enables or disables
sharing of vehicle location outside the
vehicle for certain purposes. Even if
the Location Services setting is
disabled, vehicle location information
will continue to be shared for
emergency services and Super Cruise,
if equipped.
System Care
The camera on the steering column
has a lens cover that may become
dirty over time and affect camera
performance. Clean the lens cover
with a soft cloth sprayed with glass
cleaner. Wipe the lens gently, then dry
it. Never use abrasive cloths/cleaners
or corrosive chemicals of any kind on
the lens cover.

258 DRIVING AND OPERATING
{Warning
RAB may not avoid many types of
backing crashes. Do not wait for the
automatic braking to apply. This
system is not designed to replace
driver braking and only works in
R (Reverse) when an object is
detected directly behind the vehicle.
It may not brake or stop in time to
avoid a crash. It will not brake for
objects when the vehicle is moving
at very low speeds. It does not
detect children, pedestrians,
bicyclists, animals, or objects below
the bumper or that are too close or
too far from the vehicle. To prevent
injury, death, or vehicle damage,
even with RAB, always check the
area around the vehicle before and
while backing.
If the brake pedal is not pressed soon
after the stop, the Electric Parking
Brake (EPB) may be set. When it is
safe, press the accelerator pedal firmly
at any time to override RAB.
{Warning
There may be instances where
unexpected or undesired automatic
braking occurs. If this happens,
either press the brake pedal or
firmly press the accelerator pedal to
release the brakes from the RAB
system. Before releasing the brakes,
check the RVC and check the area
around the vehicle to make sure it
is safe to proceed.
Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
If equipped, RCTA displays a red
warning triangle with a left or right
pointing arrow to warn of traffic
coming from the left or right. This
system detects objects coming from
up to 20 m (65 ft) from the left or
right side of the vehicle. When an
object is detected, either three beeps
sound from the left or right or three
Safety Alert Seat pulses occur on the
left or right side, depending on the
direction of the detected vehicle. Use caution while backing up when
towing a trailer, as the RCTA
detection zones that extend out from
the back of the vehicle do not move
further back when a trailer is towed.
See
Radio Frequency Statement 0411.
Turning the Features On or Off
TouchXon the center stack to turn
on or off the Front and Rear Park
Assist, Reverse Automatic Braking
(RAB), Rear Cross Traffic Alert
(RCTA), and the Backing Warning
System at the same time. The
indicator light next to the button
comes on when the features are on
and turns off when the features have
been disabled.
Turn off Park Assist, RCTA, and RAB
when towing a trailer.
To turn the RPA symbols or guidance
lines (on some models) on or off, see
“Rear Camera Park Assist Symbols”
under Vehicle Personalization 0157.
RCTA can also be turned on or off
through vehicle personalization. See
“Collision/Detection Systems” under
Vehicle Personalization 0157.

Automatic Parking Assist (APA)
with Braking
If equipped, APA searches for and
steers the vehicle into parallel and
perpendicular parking spots. When
using APA, you must still shift gears,
while the system applies the brakes
and accelerator. A display and audible
beeps help to guide parking
maneuvers.
Do not use APA when towing a trailer.
{Warning
APA may not detect objects in the
parking space, objects that are soft
or narrow, objects high off the
ground such as flatbed trucks,
objects below ground level such as
large potholes, or moving objects
(e.g. pedestrians). Always verify that
the parking space is appropriate for
parking a vehicle. APA does not
respond to changes in the parking
space, such as movement of an
adjacent vehicle, or a person or
object entering the parking space.(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
APA does not detect or avoid traffic
that is behind or alongside of the
vehicle. Always be prepared to stop
the vehicle during the parking
maneuver.
Touch
Oon the center stack to
enable the system to search for a
parking space that is large enough and
within 1.5 m (5 ft) of the vehicle. The
vehicle speed must be below
30 km/h (18 mph). The system cannot:
. Detect whether it is a legal parking
space.
. Park exactly lined up with the
vehicle next to it if the spot is
approached at an angle or if the
parking space is angled.
. Park exactly centered in a spot
that is marked too large.
. Always detect short curbs.
When enabled, APA searches for
parallel parking spaces to the right of
the vehicle. To search for a parking space to the left, turn on the left turn
signal or, if available, change the side
selection in the infotainment display.
To switch the parking mode between
parallel and perpendicular, touch and
hold
Oduring the search process or,
if available, change the parking mode
in the infotainment display.
After completely passing a large
enough space, an audible beep occurs.
A red stop symbol and a shift to
reverse message are displayed.
If the vehicle is in R (Reverse), but
does not steer into the expected
space, this may be because the system
is maneuvering the vehicle into a
previously detected space. The APA
system does not need service.

260 DRIVING AND OPERATING
APA will instruct the vehicle to stop
once a large enough space is found.
Follow the displayed instructions.
Shift to R (Reverse) to engage
automatic steering. The steering wheel
will vibrate briefly as a reminder to
remove hands from the steering
wheel. APA uses idle speed and
braking to park. If idle speed is not
sufficient, gently press the accelerator.
Check surroundings and be prepared
to stop to avoid vehicles, pedestrians,
or objects not detected by the system.
In case the driver brakes, APA will not
disengage. Manual steering by the
driver automatically disengages APA.
Vehicle speed is limited to a
maximum of 5 km/h (3 mph) during
the parking maneuver.A progress arrow displays the status
of the parking maneuver. Depending
on the space size, additional
maneuvers may be required, and there
will be additional instructions. When
changing gears, allow the automatic
steering to complete before continuing
the parking maneuver. APA will beep
and display a PARKING COMPLETE
message. Apply the brakes and place
the vehicle in P (Park).
APA may automatically disengage if:
.
The steering wheel is used by the
driver.
. The maximum allowed speed is
exceeded.
. The parking brake is applied or the
vehicle is shifted into P (Park).
. There is a failure with the APA
system.
. Electronic stability control or
antilock brakes are activated.
. A high priority vehicle message is
displayed in the DIC.
. The driver opens the door with an
unbuckled seat belt. The brake holds the vehicle until the
parking brake or brake is applied,
or the vehicle is shifted into P (Park).
To cancel APA, touch
Oagain.
When the System Does Not Seem to
Work Properly
The APA system may require a short
period of driving along curves to
calibrate.
Rear Pedestrian Alert
Under certain conditions, this feature
can provide alerts for a pedestrian
within the system’s range directly
behind the vehicle. This feature only
works in R (Reverse) below 12 km/h
(8 mph), and detects pedestrians up to
8 m (26 ft) away during daytime
driving. During nighttime driving,
feature performance is very limited.
