CRUISE CONTROL
SYSTEMS — IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with the Cruise
Control system, or the Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC) system:
Cruise Control will keep your vehicle at a
constant preset speed.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) will adjust the
vehicle speed up to the preset speed to
maintain a distance with the vehicle ahead.
23_GA_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 97

99

If needed (when overtaking for instance), you can
accelerate beyond the set speed by pressing the
accelerator. When you release the pedal, the
vehicle will return to the previously set speed.
When traveling downhill with the system active,
the vehicle speed may slightly exceed the set one.

NOTE:
Before pushing the SET switch, the vehicle must
be traveling at a constant speed on a flat surface.
To Vary The Speed Setting
To Increase Or Decrease The Set Speed
When the Cruise Control is set, you can increase
the speed by pushing the SET switch upward or
decrease the speed by pushing the SET switch
downward.
U.S. Speed (mph)
Pushing the SET switch once will result in a
1 mph speed adjustment. Each subsequent
movement of the switch results in an
adjustment of 1 mph.
If the switch is continually pushed, the set
speed will continue to adjust until the switch is
released, then the new set speed will be
established.
Metric Speed (km/h)
Pushing the SET switch once will result in a
1 km/h speed adjustment. Each subsequent
movement of the switch results in an
adjustment of 1 km/h.
If the switch is continually pushed, the set
speed will continue to adjust until the switch is
released, then the new set speed will be
established.

NOTE:
Moving the SET switch allows for adjusting of the
speed according to the selected unit of measure -
ment set on the radio system. Refer to the Infor -
mation and Entertainment System Owner’s
Manual for more information.
To Accelerate For Passing
While the Cruise Control is set, press the
accelerator to pass as you would normally. When
the pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the
set speed.
Using Cruise Control On Hills
The transmission may downshift on hills to
maintain the vehicle set speed.
The Cruise Control system maintains speed up
and down hills. A slight speed change on
moderate hills is normal. On steep hills, a greater
speed loss or gain may occur so it may be
preferable to drive without Cruise Control.
To Resume Speed
To resume a previously set speed, push the RES
button and release. Resume can be used at any
speed above 20 mph (32 km/h).

NOTE:
Before resuming the previously set speed, you
must accelerate to a speed close to that speed.
Resume Button Location
In AutoStick (sequential) mode, before resuming
the previously set speed, you should accelerate
until you are close to that speed. Then, push and
release the RES button.
To Deactivate
A tap on the brake pedal deactivates the Cruise
Control without deleting the set speed.
The Cruise Control may also be deactivated by
applying the Electric Park Brake or when the
braking system is operated (e.g. operation of the
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system).
The set speed is deleted in the following cases:
Pushing the on/off button a second time
The ignition is placed in the OFF position
If there is a malfunction with the Cruise Control
WARNING!
Cruise Control can be dangerous where the
system cannot maintain a constant speed.
Your vehicle could go too fast for the
conditions, and you could lose control and
have an accident. Do not use Cruise Control in
heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy,
snow-covered or slippery.

STARTING AND OPERATING

102

When the system is enabled and ready to
operate, the display shows the white ACC icon
above dashes in place of the speed.Enabled Icons
Setting a speed activates the system. The display
shows the icon in green with the set speed.
To Pause/Deactivate
With the feature enabled (speed not set), push
the on/off button to disable.
With the feature active (speed set), push the on/
off button to pause. The display will show the icon
in white with the speed in brackets. To deactivate
the feature, push the on/off button a second
time.To Set A Desired Speed
When the vehicle reaches the desired speed,
push the RES/SET switch downward and release
it to activate the system. When the accelerator is
released, the vehicle will maintain the set speed
automatically.
SET Switch
While the accelerator pedal is pressed, the
system will not be able to control the distance
between the vehicle and the one ahead. In this
case, the speed will be determined only by the
position of the accelerator pedal.
The system will return to normal operation as
soon as the accelerator pedal is released.
To Vary The Speed Setting
To Increase Or Decrease The Set Speed
Once the system has been activated, you can
increase the speed by pushing the RES/SET
switch upward or decrease the speed by pushing
the RES/SET switch downward. Each time the
switch is pushed, the speed is adjusted by 1 mph.
Pushing and holding the switch upward or
downward will cause the set speed to adjust in
5 mph increments until the button is released. The new set speed is reflected in the instrument
cluster display.

NOTE:

Moving the RES/SET switch downward allows
you to adjust the speed according to the
selected unit of measurement ("U.S." or
"Metric") set on the radio system. Refer to the
Information and Entertainment System
Owner’s Manual Supplement for further
information.
When the unit of measurement is set to Metric,
pushing and holding the RES/SET switch will
adjust the speed in 10 km/h increments.
By keeping the accelerator pedal pressed, the
vehicle can continue to accelerate beyond the
set speed. In this case, use the RES/SET
switch to set the speed to the vehicle’s current
speed.
When you push the RES/SET button to reduce
the speed, the braking system intervenes
automatically if the engine brake does not
slow the vehicle down sufficiently to reach the
set speed. The device holds the set speed
uphill and downhill; however a slight variation
is entirely normal, particularly on slight
inclines.
The transmission could shift to a lower gear
when driving downhill, or when accelerating.
This is normal and necessary to maintain the
set speed.
The system will disable while driving if the
brakes overheat.
WARNING!
Leaving the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
system on when not in use is dangerous. You
could accidentally set the system or cause it to
go faster than you want. You could lose control
and have a collision. Always leave the system
off when you are not using it.

HIGHWAY ASSIST SYSTEM
(HAS) — IF EQUIPPED
The Highway Assist System (HAS) is a driving
assistance system that is only available when
driving on highways. The system operates up to
speeds of 90 mph (145 km/h).
The system uses information from the front
camera and radar to help keep the vehicle in the
center of the lane and at a constant speed.
The HAS system combines Adaptive Cruise
Control (ACC) functions with lane centering logic
to control the trajectory of the vehicle. The HAS
system requires the driver’s hands to remain on
the steering wheel.
Once HAS is activated, a dedicated screen will
appear on the instrument cluster display.
23_GA_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 106

STARTING AND OPERATING

The camera, radar, and radio system must be
functioning properly
The road lane width must be between 8.5 ft
and 13.7 ft (2.6 m and 4.2 m)
The turn signals must not be activated
The HAS system must be functioning properly
Other operating limits:
If the speed of ACC can be set to a higher value
(top speed 110 mph (180 km/h), HAS is only
available as long as the vehicle speed is equal
to or less than 90 mph (145 km/h).

When the ACC speed is reduced and the
vehicle speed is less than 90 mph (145 km/h),
the system will automatically reactivate.

If the ACC speed is set to 90 mph (145 km/h), traveling downhill may increase the vehicle
speed. The HAS system will deactivate until the
speed returns to 90 mph (145 km/h).
INDICATIONS ON THE DISPLAY
The HAS system status can always be viewed in
the instrument cluster display.
The system status is indicated by the color of the
