Automatic Speed Limiter
Automatic Speed Limiter uses an on-board
camera and navigation data to identify
speed limit road signs and propose a new
set speed based on that data.
In Auto mode, you can adjust the set speed
with an offset above or below the identified
speed limit using the steering wheel
controls. See "Turning Speed Limiter On and
Off" later in this section.
{Warning
In Auto mode, Speed Limiter may not
prompt for set speed changes when
encountering conditional speed limit
signs, for example time frames or when
construction workers are present. To
avoid a crash, personal injury, or death,
always pay attention to posted signs and
follow applicable traffic laws. Manual Speed Limiter
Speed Limiter can also be used in Manual
mode. In Manual mode, all changes to the
set speed are controlled by the driver.

.If the steering wheel light bar flashes green, the system has detected that your head and eyes may not
be directed toward the road.
.The flashing will stop when the system detects that your head and eyes appear to be directed toward
the road.
Second Alert
.If the steering wheel light bar flashes green for too long, Super Cruise will alert the driver to take
control of steering immediately by flashing the light bar red. Also, either beeps will sound or the Safety
Alert Seat will vibrate. To view available settings from the infotainment home screen, touch Settings >
Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems.

Rear Cross Traffic Braking (RCTB)
If equipped, RCTB displays a red warning
triangle with a left or right pointing arrow
on the infotainment screen to warn of
traffic coming from the left or right. The
system detects objects coming from up to
20 m (65 ft) from the left or right side of
the vehicle. When an object is detected,
three beeps sounds from the left or right,
depending on the direction of the detected
vehicle. RCTB will bring the vehicle to a full
stop if a collision is imminent.
Driving With a Trailer
Use caution while backing up when towing
a trailer. RCTA and RCTB are automatically
disabled when a trailer is attached to the
vehicle.
Turning the Feature On or Off
To view available settings from the
infotainment screen, touch Settings >
Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems.
Assistance Systems for Driving
If equipped, when driving the vehicle in a
forward gear, Forward Collision Alert (FCA),
Lane Keep Assist (LKA), Side Blind Zone Alert
(SBZA), Lane Change Alert (LCA), AutomaticEmergency Braking (AEB), and/or the Front
Pedestrian Braking (FPB) System can help to
avoid a crash or reduce crash damage.
Forward Collision Alert (FCA)
System
If equipped, the FCA system may help to
avoid or reduce the harm caused by
front-end crashes. When approaching a
vehicle ahead too quickly, FCA provides a
red flashing alert on the windshield and
rapidly beeps or pulses the driver seat. FCA
also lights an amber visual alert if following
another vehicle much too closely.
FCA can detect vehicles to distances of
approximately 110 m (360 ft) and operates at
all speeds.
{Warning
FCA is a warning system and does not
apply the brakes. When approaching a
slower-moving or stopped vehicle ahead
too rapidly, or when following a vehicle
too closely, FCA may not provide a
warning with enough time to help avoid
a crash. It also may not provide any
warning at all. FCA does not warn of

pedestrians, animals, signs, guardrails,
bridges, construction barrels, or other
objects. Be ready to take action and
apply the brakes. SeeDefensive Driving

FCA can be disabled. To view available
settings from the infotainment screen, touch
Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection
Systems.
Detecting the Vehicle Ahead
FCA warnings will not occur unless the FCA
system detects a vehicle ahead. When a
vehicle is detected, the vehicle ahead
indicator will display green. Vehicles may
not be detected on curves, highway exit
ramps, or hills, due to poor visibility; or if a
vehicle ahead is partially blocked by
