304 Driving and Operating
The speedometer reading can
be displayed in either English
or metric units. See
Instrument Cluster (Base
Level)0106 or
Instrument Cluster (Uplevel)
0 108. The increment value
used depends on the units
displayed.
Passing Another Vehicle
While Using Cruise Control
Use the accelerator pedal to
increase the vehicle speed.
When you take your foot off
the pedal, the vehicle will slow
down to the previous set
cruise speed.
While pressing the accelerator
pedal or shortly following the
release to override cruise,
briefly applying SET− will
result in cruise set to the
current vehicle speed.
Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control will
work on hills depends upon
the vehicle speed, load, and
the steepness of the hills. When going up steep hills, you
might have to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain
your speed. When going
downhill, the cruise control
system may automatically
brake to slow the vehicle
down. Also, you may have to
brake or shift to a lower gear
to keep your speed down.
If the brake pedal is applied,
cruise control disengages.
Ending Cruise Control
There are five ways to end
cruise control:
.Step lightly on the brake
pedal.
.Press*.
.Shift the transmission to
N (Neutral).
.Press the clutch pedal for
several seconds or shift to
Neutral (manual
transmissions).
.PressJ.
Erasing Speed Memory
The cruise control set speed is
erased from memory if
Jis
pressed or if the ignition is
turned off.
Adaptive Cruise
Control (Advanced)
If equipped, Adaptive Cruise
Control (ACC) allows the
cruise control set speed and
following gap to be selected.
Read this entire section
before using this system. The
following gap is the following
time between your vehicle and
a vehicle detected directly
ahead in your path, moving in
the same direction. If no
vehicle is detected in your
path, ACC works like regular
cruise control. ACC uses
camera and radar sensors.
See Radio Frequency
Statement 0494.
If a vehicle is detected in your
path, ACC can speed up the
vehicle or apply limited,
moderate braking to maintain

Cadillac CT4 Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-16500442) -
2023 - CRC - 5/10/22
Driving and Operating 305
the selected following gap. To
disengage ACC, apply the
brake. If the Traction Control
System (TCS) or StabiliTrak/
Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) system activates while
ACC is engaged, ACC may
automatically disengage. See
Traction Control/Electronic
Stability Control0290. When
road conditions allow ACC to
be safely used, ACC can be
turned back on. ACC will not
engage if the TCS or
StabiliTrak/ESC electronic
stability control system is
disabled.
ACC can reduce the need for
you to frequently brake and
accelerate, especially when
used on expressways,
freeways, and interstate
highways. When used on other
roads, you may need to take
over the control of braking or
acceleration more often.{Warning
ACC has limited braking
ability and may not have
time to slow the vehicle
down enough to avoid a
collision with another vehicle
you are following. This can
occur when vehicles
suddenly slow or stop
ahead, or enter your lane.
Also see “Alerting the
Driver” in this section.
Complete attention is
always required while driving
and you should be ready to
take action and apply the
brakes. See Defensive
Driving 0235.
{Warning
ACC will not detect or brake
for children, pedestrians,
animals, or other objects.
Do not use ACC when:
.On winding and hilly roads
or when the sensors are
blocked by snow, ice,
or dirt. The system may
not detect a vehicle
ahead. Keep the entire
front of the vehicle clean.
.Visibility is low, such as in
fog, rain, or snow
conditions. ACC
performance is limited
under these conditions.
.On slippery roads where
fast changes in tire
traction can cause
excessive wheel slip.
.When towing a trailer.

312 Driving and Operating
Warning (Continued)
complete attention is always
required while driving and
you should be ready to take
action and apply the brakes.
Irregular Objects
Affecting ACC
ACC may have difficulty
detecting the following
objects:
.Vehicles with cargo
extending from the back end.
.Non-standard shaped
vehicles, such as vehicle
transport, vehicles with a
side car fitted, or horse
carriages.
.Objects that are close to the
front of your vehicle.
ACC Automatically
Disengages
ACC may automatically
disengage and you will need to
manually apply the brakes to
slow the vehicle when:
.The sensors are blocked.
.The Traction Control System
(TCS) or StabiliTrak/ESC
system has activated or
been disabled.
.There is a fault in the
system.
.The radar falsely reports
blockage when driving in a
desert or remote area with
no other vehicles or
roadside objects.
.A DIC message may display
to indicate that ACC is
temporarily unavailable.
The ACC indicator will turn
white when ACC is no longer
active.
In some cases, when ACC will
not activate, regular Cruise
Control may be used. See
“Switching Between ACC and
Regular Cruise Control”
previously in this section.
Always consider driving
conditions before using either
cruise control system. Notification to Resume ACC
ACC will maintain a follow gap
behind a detected vehicle and
slow your vehicle to a stop
behind that vehicle.
If the stopped vehicle ahead
has driven away and ACC has
not resumed, the vehicle
ahead indicator will flash as a
reminder to check traffic
ahead before proceeding. In
addition, the left and right
sides of the Safety Alert Seat
will pulse three times, or three
beeps will sound. Touch the
Settings icon on the
infotainment home page.
Select
“Vehicle” to display the
list of available options and
select ”Alert Type” and
“Adaptive Cruise Go Notifier”
in “Collision/Detection
Systems”.
If equipped with Driver
Attention System (DAS)
located on top of the steering
column, when the vehicle
ahead drives away, and DAS
determines if the driver's

316 Driving and Operating
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 radar
sensors on the front of the
vehicle can become blocked by
snow, ice, dirt, or mud. These
areas need 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” under
Exterior Care 0455.Super Cruise
If equipped, Super Cruise can
steer to maintain lane position
under certain conditions on
Super Cruise-enabled roads
that are separated from
opposing traffic.
Super Cruise can also steer to
perform a lane change under
certain conditions on Super
Cruise-enabled roads.
A lane change can be initiated
by the driver using the turn
signal lever. If equipped with
Automatic Lane Change, the
Super Cruise System may
initiate a lane change
maneuver in the following
scenarios:
.To pass slower traffic
.When the current lane is
ending ahead
.To return to the initial lane See
“Super Cruise Lane
Change” later in this section
and Turn and Lane-Change
Signals 0149.
{Warning
Super Cruise can only assist
to maintain lane position,
or steer to change lanes,
when driving on compatible
roads. You must supervise
the driving task and monitor
the road conditions. You
may need to respond to
traffic events by steering,
braking, or accelerating. See
Defensive Driving.
Super Cruise is:
.Not a self-driving system
.Not a crash avoidance or
warning system
.Not a substitute for
proper supervision of the
driving task.

{Warning
Failure to supervise the
driving task and to respond
appropriately, even while
Super Cruise is operating,
can cause a crash. Super
Cruise may not respond as
you would to all driving
situations and may not
maintain lane position under
all conditions.
It is extremely important to
pay attention to the
operation of the vehicle,(Continued)

using Super Cruise.
.Always keep the entire
front of the vehicle and
the sensors clean.(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
.Always observe posted
speed limits. Only use
Super Cruise at or below
the posted speed limit.
Super Cruise should not be
used in complex or uncertain
driving conditions, including:
.Not in construction zones.
.Not when approaching or
exiting toll plazas.
.Not when lane markings
are not present or cannot
be detected. For example
there is too much glare,
weather conditions are
