return to normal operation after a
short period when no spirited driving
is detected.
Driver Mode Control Switch
The Driver Mode Control has three
or four modes: Tour, Sport, Snow/
Ice, and Track. Press
yorzon
the MODE switch on the center
console to make a mode selection.
Pressing the switch will display the
moding menu in the instrument
cluster with all available ride modes.
Every switch press will select and
activate the next available mode.
When Sport, Snow/Ice, or Track Mode is selected, a unique and
persistent indicator will be displayed
in the instrument cluster.
Tour Mode
Use for normal city and highway
driving to provide a smooth, soft
ride. This setting provides a
balanced setting between comfort
and handling. This is the
standard mode.
Sport Mode
Use where road conditions or
personal preference demand a more
controlled response.
When Sport Mode is selected, the
transmission may downshift to a
lower gear for better performance.
The transmission will continue to
shift automatically but can hold a
lower gear longer than it would in
the Tour Mode based on braking,
throttle input, and vehicle lateral
acceleration. See
Automatic
Transmission 0183. The steering
will change to provide more precise
control. If the vehicle has Magnetic
Ride Control, the suspension will change to provide better cornering
performance. If the vehicle is
equipped with Active Exhaust, the
exhaust valves will open earlier and
more often. Competitive Driving
Mode can be accessed through this
mode by pressing
Yon the
console twice.
This Competitive Driving Mode is
only on SS, 1LE, and ZL1 vehicles.
For example, a vehicle with a
V6 engine and automatic
transmission will have Sport Mode,
but will not be able to access
Competitive Driving Mode.
Snow/Ice Mode
If equipped, use when more traction
is needed during slippery
conditions. The automatic
transmission will upshift normally
when the vehicle is moving. The
acceleration will adjust to help
provide a smoother launch. The
automatic transmission will also shift
differently to assist in maintaining
traction.

This feature is not intended for use
when the vehicle is stuck in sand,
mud, ice, snow, or gravel. If the
vehicle becomes stuck, seeIf the
Vehicle Is Stuck 0169.
Track Mode
If equipped, use when maximum
vehicle handling is desired.
When Track Mode is selected, the
transmission may downshift to a
lower gear for better performance.
The automatic transmission and
steering will function similar to
Sport Mode.
The accelerator pedal is adjusted to
give maximum control during the
highest level of spirited driving. The
Magnetic Ride Control will be set to
the optimum level for vehicle
responsiveness. If the vehicle is
equipped with Active Exhaust, the
exhaust valves will open.
Performance Traction Management
(PTM) can be accessed through this
mode by pressing
Yon the
console twice. There are attributes that vary by
mode shown below. Not all vehicles
have all features, depending on the
vehicle options.

This optional handling mode can be
selected by pressing the TCS/
StabiliTrak/ESC button on the
console two times. The appropriate
message displays in the Driver
Information Center (DIC).
When the TCS/StabiliTrak/ESC
button is pressed again, the TCS
and StabiliTrak/ESC systems are
on. The appropriate message
displays briefly in the DIC.
Launch Control
If the vehicle has the LT1 10 speed
transmission, seeTrack Events and
Competitive Driving 0157 for
custom launch control information. A Launch Control feature is
available, within Competitive Driving
Mode, to allow the driver to achieve
high levels of vehicle acceleration in
a straight line. Launch Control is a
form of traction control that
manages tire spin while launching
the vehicle. This feature is intended
for use during closed course race
events where consistent zero to
sixty and quarter mile times are
desirable.
Launch Control is only available
when the following criteria are met:
.
Competitive Driving Mode is
selected.
. The vehicle is not moving.
. The steering wheel is pointing
straight.
Manual Transmissions
. The clutch is pressed to floor
and the vehicle is in
1 (First) gear.
. The accelerator pedal is rapidly
applied to wide open throttle. The Launch Control feature will
initially limit engine speed as the
driver rapidly applies the accelerator
pedal to wide open throttle. Allow
the engine rpm to stabilize.
A smooth, quick release of the
clutch, while maintaining the fully
pressed accelerator pedal, will
manage wheel slip. Complete shifts
are described in
Manual
Transmission 0188.
Automatic Transmissions
. The brake pedal must be firmly
pressed to the floor, equivalent
to a panic brake event.
. The accelerator pedal is rapidly
applied to wide open throttle. (If
the vehicle rolls due to wide
open throttle, release the
throttle, press the brake pedal
more firmly, and re-apply the
accelerator to wide open
throttle.)
After the vehicle is launched, the
system continues in Competitive
Driving Mode.

beeps. FCA also lights an amber
visual alert if following another
vehicle too closely.
FCA detects vehicles within a
distance of approximately 60 m
(197 ft) and operates at speeds
above 8 km/h (5 mph).
{Warning
FCA 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 Driving0154.
FCA can be disabled with the FCA
steering wheel control.
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.
Collision Alert
With Head-Up Display
Chevrolet Camaro Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-
13556304) - 2020 - CRC - 9/3/19
210 Driving and Operating
Without Head-Up Display
When your vehicle approaches
another detected vehicle too rapidly,
the red FCA display will flash on the
windshield. Also, eight rapid
high-pitched beeps will sound from
the front. When this Collision Alert
occurs, the brake system may
prepare for driver braking to occur
more rapidly, which can cause a
brief, mild deceleration. Continue to
apply the brake pedal as needed.
Cruise control may be disengaged
when the Collision Alert occurs.
Tailgating Alert
The vehicle ahead indicator will
display amber when you are
following the vehicle ahead too
closely.
Selecting the Alert Timing
The Collision Alert control is on the
steering wheel. Press
[to set the
FCA timing to Far, Medium, Near,
or Off. The first button press shows
the current setting on the DIC.
Additional button presses will
change this setting. The chosen
setting will remain until it is changed
and will affect the timing of both the
Collision Alert and the Tailgating
Alert features. The timing of both
alerts will vary based on vehicle
speed. The faster the vehicle speed,
the farther away the alert will occur.
Consider traffic and weather
conditions when selecting the alert
timing. The range of selectable alert
timings may not be appropriate for
all drivers and driving conditions.
Unnecessary Alerts
FCA may provide unnecessary
alerts for turning vehicles, vehicles
in other lanes, objects that are not
vehicles, or shadows. These alerts
are normal operation and the
vehicle does not need service.
Cleaning the System
If the FCA system does not seem to
operate properly, this may correct
the issue:
. Clean the outside of the
windshield in front of the
rearview mirror.
. Clean the entire front of the
vehicle.
. Clean the headlamps.
Side Blind Zone
Alert (SBZA)
If equipped, the SBZA system is a
lane-changing aid that assists
drivers with avoiding crashes that
occur with moving vehicles in the
side blind zone (or spot) areas.
