292 Driving and Operating
Curves in the Road
{Warning
On curves, ACC may not
detect a vehicle ahead in
your lane. You could be
startled if the vehicle
accelerates up to the set
speed, especially when
following a vehicle exiting or
entering exit ramps. You
could lose control of the
vehicle or crash. Do not use
ACC while driving on an
entrance or exit ramp.
Always be ready to use the
brakes if necessary.
{Warning
On curves, ACC may
respond to a vehicle in
another lane, or may not
have time to react to a
vehicle in your lane. You
could crash into a vehicle
ahead of you, or lose control(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
of your vehicle. Give extra
attention in curves and be
ready to use the brakes if
necessary. Select an
appropriate speed while
driving in curves.
ACC may operate differently
in a sharp curve. It may reduce
the vehicle speed if the curve
is too sharp.
If equipped, the curve speed
control indicator
bmay
illuminate green when ACC is
actively controlling the vehicle
speed and detects a sharp
curve on the road ahead.
ACC automatically slows the
vehicle down while navigating
the curve and may increase
speed out of the curve, but will
not exceed the set speed.
When following a vehicle and
entering a curve, ACC may not
detect the vehicle ahead and
accelerate to the set speed.
When this happens, the
vehicle ahead indicator will not
appear.
ACC may detect a vehicle that
is not in your lane and apply
the brakes.

Attention to the Road
{Warning
Super Cruise is a driver
assistance system and
cannot accurately detect or
predict all situations. Super
Cruise is not a crash
avoidance system. To
prevent serious injury or
death, 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 Driving0240.
Super Cruise also cannot
determine whether you are
awake, asleep, impaired,
or properly focused on safe
driving. The vehicle could
crash into other vehicles,
drive out of the lane, or drive
off the road. Complete
attention is always required
while driving, even while
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
using Super Cruise. Be
prepared to take over
steering or apply the brakes
at any time.
{Warning
To prevent serious injury or
death, be alert and pay
special attention when
passing highway exits,
entrances, and crossings
with Super Cruise, and be
ready to take control of the
vehicle when necessary.
Changes in lane markings
around exits and entrances
can momentarily cause
Super Cruise to not detect
the correct lane. If this
occurs, Super Cruise may
attempt steering inputs to
bring the vehicle back into
the correct lane and, in rare
circumstances, could(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
over-correct and cause the
vehicle to momentarily cross
into a lane next to your
vehicle unless you manually
steer to maintain your lane
position.
The Driver Attention System
(DAS) on the steering column
continually monitors driver
head and eye position to
estimate driver attention to
the road. The camera does not
record or share pictures,
audio, or video.
Sunglasses, hats, or other
types of clothing that change
the shape of the head may
interfere with camera
performance. To improve
camera performance, raise or
lower the steering wheel,
or change the seat position.
