Automatic Reversal System
The sunroof and power sunshade,
if equipped, have an automatic reversal
system that is only active when the sunroof
and power sunshade are operated in
express-close mode.
If an object is in the path while
express-closing, the reversal system will
detect an object, stop, and open the sunroof
or power sunshade slightly.
If this condition occurs, attempt to remove
the object, then pull and release the switch
to express close. If the reversal occurs multiple times, the DIC message OPEN THEN
CLOSE SUNROOF will display, and express is

Additional Storage Features
Cargo Tie-Downs
There are two cargo tie-downs in the rear
cargo area. These can be used to strap cargo
down and keep it from moving inside the
vehicle.
Convenience Net
This vehicle may have a convenience net in
the rear of the vehicle. Attach it to the
cargo tie-downs for storing small loads.
Do not use the net to store heavy loads.
Roof Rack System
The vehicle may be equipped with side-rails
for a roof rack system. Cargo must be
secured with properly installed cross rails
and other accessories designed to carry
cargo. These can be purchased from your
dealer.
{Warning
Before driving and occasionally during a
trip, check that cargo is securely fastened,
rests evenly between the cross rails and
does not block the vehicle's lamps or
windows. Never load cargo directly on
the roof of the vehicle or allow cargo to
hang over the rear or sides of the vehicle.
Never load cargo without first properly
installing cross rails and other accessories
designed to carry cargo. Personal injury,
death or damage to the vehicle or other
property may occur.
If driving for a long distance, on rough
roads, or at high speeds, occasionally stop
the vehicle to make sure the cargo remains
in its place.
Cargo Weight Limits
Do not exceed the maximum cargo weight
for the roof rack system, including the
weight of the cross rails and any other
accessories used to carry the cargo such as
bike racks or roof boxes. The maximum
cargo weight that can be loaded onto the
roof rack system is 100 kg (220 lb) or the

GMC Yukon/Yukon XL/Denali Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./
Canada/Mexico-15555988) - 2022 - CRC - 12/3/21
Storage 95
weight designated in the instructions that
came with the cross rails or other roof rack
accessories, whichever is less.
{Warning
Never load the roof rack with more
weight than specified in this section.
Loading cargo on the roof rack will make
the vehicle's center of gravity higher. To
avoid losing control of the vehicle, avoid
overloading, high speeds, sudden starts,
sharp turns, sudden braking, or abrupt
maneuvers when carrying cargo on the
roof rack.
The weight of any cargo carried on the roof
rack system must be included in calculating
the loaded weight of the vehicle. Do not
exceed the maximum vehicle capacity when
loading the vehicle, including cargo carried
on the roof rack system and passengers
and cargo carried in the vehicle. For more
information on vehicle capacity and loading,
see Vehicle Load Limits 0201.
A Center High-Mounted Stoplamp (CHMSL) is
located above the rear window glass. Make
sure items loaded on the roof of the vehicle
do not block or damage the CHMSL.

Driving and Operating 227
Terrain Mode is only available on vehicles
equipped with the single speed
transfer case.
Terrain Mode can only be active when:
.Vehicle speed is less than 80 km/h
(50 mph).
.The transfer case is in 4m.
Frequent use of this mode may cause brake
wear due to the light braking.
The vehicle automatically exits the mode if
the brakes get too hot. Terrain Mode can be
turned back on after the brakes have cooled.
When Terrain Mode is selected:
.Auto Engine Start/Stop is disabled.
.The Terrain Mode indicator displays on
the instrument cluster.
Magnetic Ride Control
This vehicle may have a semi-active damping
system called Magnetic Ride Control. With
this feature, improved vehicle ride and
handling is provided under a variety of
passenger and loading conditions.
Locking Rear Axle
Vehicles with a locking rear axle can give
more traction on snow, mud, ice, sand,
or gravel. It works like a standard axle most
of the time, but when traction is low, this
feature will allow the rear wheel with the
most traction to move the vehicle.
Four Corner Air Suspension
System
The Four Corner Air Suspension feature
provides full time load leveling capability
along with the benefit of adjusting ride
height for increased convenience and
capability.
{Warning
To help avoid personal injury or death,
make sure the area underneath the
vehicle and inside the wheel wells is clear
when lowering the vehicle.
{Warning
To help avoid personal injury or death,
always select the lowest ride height for
the current driving conditions. Higher ride
heights raise the vehicle's center of
gravity, increasing the chance of a
rollover during extreme maneuvers.
{Warning
Heavy loads on the roof rack will make
the vehicle's center of gravity higher,
increasing the possibility of a rollover. To
avoid losing control of the vehicle, always
select the normal height setting and
avoid high speeds, sudden starts, sharp
turns, sudden braking, or abrupt
maneuvers when carrying cargo on the
roof rack.

Driving and Operating 241
Towing with ACC
Towing a trailer with ACC is not
recommended with an aftermarket brake
controller. Aftermarket brake controllers may
not integrate properly with the ACC system.
When towing a trailer, certain characteristics
such as following gap, acceleration rates and
braking rates may be modified to provide a
better towing experience.
If equipped when towing a trailer, ACC
driving characteristics such as following gap,
acceleration rates and braking rates may be
modified to provide a better towing
experience.
ACC should not be used while towing a
trailer with an aftermarket trailer brake
controller. Aftermarket trailer brake
controllers may not function properly with
the ACC system.
ACC may be used when towing a trailer
when trailer attached is within GM-approved
allowable size and weight limits. SeeTrailer
Towing 0271.
When towing a trailer with ACC, it is
important to properly set the Trailer Gain.
See “Integrated Trailer Brake Control
System” inTowing Equipment 0274 for
Trailer Gain Adjustment Procedure. Use Tow/Haul mode when driving down
steep hills or mountain grades, or when
hauling heavy loads. See
Driver Mode
Control 0224.
Disengaging ACC
There are three ways to disengage ACC:
.Step lightly on the brake pedal.
.Press*.
.PressJ.
Erasing Speed Memory
The ACC set speed is erased from memory if
Jis pressed or if the ignition is turned off.
Weather Conditions Affecting ACC
System operation may be limited 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 094. 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, and the sensors on the
front of the vehicle can become blocked by
snow, ice, dirt, mud, or debris. This area
needs to be cleaned for ACC to operate
properly.
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.
For cleaning instructions, see “Washing the
Vehicle” underExterior Care 0364.
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.
