the vehicle may not be possible if:
.The vehicle or object ahead is not
within your lane.
.The vehicle ahead is shifted, not
centered, or is shifted to one side of
the lane.
Driving in Narrow Lanes
Vehicles in adjacent traffic lanes or
roadside objects may be incorrectly
detected when located along the
roadway.
Do Not Use ACC on Hills
Do not use ACC when driving on steep
hills as ACC may not detect a vehicle
ahead. Do Not Use ACC When Towing a
Trailer
ACC should not be used when towing
a trailer.
Disengaging ACC

under snow, heavy rain, or road spray
conditions.
Accessory Installations and Vehicle
Modifications
Do not install or place any object
around the front camera windshield
area that would obstruct the front
camera view. Do not install objects on top of the
vehicle that overhang and obstruct the
front camera, such as a canoe, kayak,
or other items that can be transported
on a roof rack system. See
Roof Rack
System 098.
Do not modify the hood, headlamps,
or fog lamps, as this may limit the
camera’s ability to detect an object.
Cleaning the Sensing System
The camera sensor on the windshield
behind the rearview mirror can
become blocked by snow, ice, dirt,
mud, or debris. This area needs to be
cleaned for ACC to operate properly.
The vehicle headlamps may need to
be cleaned due to dirt, snow, or ice.
Objects that are not illuminated
correctly may be difficult to detect.
If ACC will not operate, regular cruise
control may be available. See
“Switching Between ACC and Regular
Cruise Control ”previously in this
section. Always consider driving
conditions before using either cruise
control system.

Super Cruise Message Summary (cont'd)
Super Cruise UnavailableSuper Cruise is unavailable for reasons not described in
other messages.
Super Cruise Locked Out See Owner’s Manual The driver did not take control of the vehicle when
prompted by the Super Cruise system. The Super Cruise
system will be disabled until the ignition is turned off and
back on.
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. https://oss.veoneer.com/
Data 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 your dealer for details.
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.

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.

Some driver assistance features alert
the driver of obstacles by beeping. To
change the volume of the warning

the driver seat cushion may provide a
vibrating pulse alert instead of
beeping. To change this, see
“Collision/Detection Systems” under
Vehicle Personalization 0130. Cleaning
Depending on vehicle options, keep
these areas of the vehicle clean to
ensure the best driver assistance
feature performance. Driver

Turning the System On and Off
The Park Assist System can be turned
on or off using the infotainment
system. SeeVehicle Personalization
0 130.
The
Xbutton is used to turn on or
off the Park Assist, which also turns
on or off the Backing Warning and
Reverse Automatic Braking (RAB) at
the same time. When the system is
turned off, a system off message is
shown on the display. This message
disappears after a short period
of time.
Turn off Park Assist when towing a
trailer to prevent unwanted beeps and
when a bike rack is attached to ensure
proper operation. When the System Does Not Seem to
Work Properly
If a service message displays, check
the following conditions:
.The sensors may not be clean. Keep
the vehicle's front and rear bumpers
free of mud, dirt, snow, ice, and
slush. For cleaning instructions, see
Exterior Care
0384.
.The Park Assist sensors may be
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 a service message displays and the
above conditions do not exist, take the
vehicle to your dealer for repairs.
If the Park Assist System does not
activate due to a temporary condition,
a system off message is shown on the
display. This can occur under the
following conditions:
.The driver has disabled the system.
.An object is currently blocking the
rear sensors (for example, bike rack,
tailgate, trailer hitch, etc.). Once the
object is removed, Park Assist will
return to normal operation.
.The bumper is damaged. Take the
vehicle to your dealer for repairs.
.Other conditions, such as vibrations
from a jackhammer or the
compression of air brakes on a very
large truck, are affecting system
performance.
Automatic Parking
Assist (APA)
Automatic Parking Assist (APA)
with Braking
If equipped, under certain conditions
APA with Braking can use sensors
based on sonar technology along the
vehicle’s front, rear and sides to detect
a parking spot, and automatically park
the vehicle with some driver
assistance. The vehicle will
automatically maneuver into a
detected spot moving at or near idle
speed. It does this by automatically
steering and braking while the driver

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 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.
Rear Pedestrian Alert Indicator
When a pedestrian is detected within
the system’s range directly behind the
vehicle, this symbol flashes amber on
the infotainment display, along with
two beeps from the rear, or if
equipped, two pulses from both sides
of the driver seat. When a pedestrian
is detected close to the vehicle, the
symbol flashes red on the
infotainment display, along with seven
beeps from the rear, or if equipped,
seven pulses from both sides of the
driver seat.
{Warning
Rear Pedestrian Alert does not
automatically brake the vehicle.
It also does not provide an alert
unless it detects a pedestrian, and it
may not detect all pedestrians if: (Continued)
