is applied, or the vehicle is shifted into
P (Park). To start driving away, press the
brakes and shift into D (Drive).
Certain vehicle conditions and driver
interferences may also cancel automatic
parking:
.The driver manually steers the vehicle.
.The maximum allowed speed is exceeded.
.There is a failure with the APA system.
.Electronic stability control or antilock
brakes are activated.
.The parking brake is applied.
.Driver unbuckles the seat belt and opens
the door.
System Limitations
Automatic Parking Assist has certain
limitations. The system cannot:
.Continue to operate if the maneuver
speed exceeds 5 km/h (3 mph).
.Detect whether a parking space is legal or
restricted.
.Detect pavement markings or lines.
.Park the vehicle closely lined up with the
vehicle next to it, particularly if the spot
is approached at an angle or if the
parking space is angled.
.Park exactly centered in a very large spot.
.Always detect short curbs.
.Operate while towing any trailer.
.Function the vehicle is raised or lowered
by air suspension,if equipped.
When the System Does Not Seem to Work
Properly
If the vehicle does not reverse into the
expected parking space, the system could be
maneuvering the vehicle into a previously
detected space.
Remote Auto Parking
If equipped, the vehicle can complete the
automatic parking maneuvers while the
driver authorizes the maneuver via the
myChevrolet app on a compatible mobile
phone outside of the vehicle. The driver can
also activate an automatic parallel or
perpendicular unparking maneuver via the
myChevrolet app. The driver must always be
prepared to cancel the automatic maneuver
if necessary.
Remote Auto Parking works the same way
and has the same limitations as the
standard APA feature described above. The
main difference is that you must instead
exit the vehicle and use the
myChevrolet app.
{Warning
When using the remote parking feature,
stay within a short distance and visually
monitor the vehicle until parking is
complete. Do not leave the vehicle
unsupervised during remote parking.
How to Activate Remote Auto Parking
To activate Remote Auto Parking, press
O
on the infotainment screen for the system
to begin searching for a parking space while
driving forward at no greater than
30 km/h (18 mph). APA searches for parking
spaces to the left or right of the vehicle up
to the sensors’ ranges of 1.5 m (5 ft). To
choose or change the parking mode or side,
make a selection in the infotainment
display.
After completely passing an eligible parking
spot, a beep sounds and a notification to
stop the vehicle is displayed in the driver
information center. Generally, Remote Auto
Parking selects the nearest empty parking
spot behind the vehicle, but under some
conditions may select a space that is further
back. Slow down and bring the vehicle to a
complete stop to begin.

262 Driving and Operating
{Warning
FCA does not provide a warning to help
avoid a crash, unless it detects a vehicle.
FCA may not detect a vehicle ahead if
the FCA sensor is blocked by dirt, snow,
or ice, or if the windshield is damaged.
It may also not detect a vehicle on
winding or hilly roads, or in conditions
that can limit visibility such as fog, rain,
or snow, or if the headlamps or
windshield are not cleaned or in proper
condition. Keep the windshield,
headlamps, and FCA sensors clean and in
good repair.
Collision Alert
With Head-Up Display
Without Head-Up Display
When your vehicle approaches another
detected vehicle too rapidly, the red FCA
display will flash on the windshield. Also,
eight rapid high-pitched beeps will sound
from the front, or both sides of the Safety
Alert Seat will pulse five times. When this
Collision Alert occurs, the brake system may
prepare for driver braking to occur more
rapidly which can cause a brief, mild
deceleration. Continue to apply the brake
pedal as needed.
Tailgating Alert
The vehicle ahead indicator will display
amber when you are following a vehicle
ahead much too closely.
Selecting the Alert Timing
The Collision Alert control is on the steering
wheel. Press
[to set the FCA timing to
Far, Medium, or Near. The first button press
shows the current setting on the DIC.
Additional button presses will change this
setting. The chosen setting will remain until
it is changed and will affect the timing of
both the Collision Alert and the Tailgating
Alert features. The timing of both alerts will
vary based on vehicle speed. The faster the
vehicle speed, the farther away the alert will
occur. Consider traffic and weather
conditions when selecting the alert timing.
The range of selectable alert timings may
not be appropriate for all drivers and driving
conditions.
If your vehicle is equipped with Adaptive
Cruise Control (ACC), changing the FCA
timing setting automatically changes the
following gap setting (Far, Medium,
or Near).

Following Distance Indicator
If equipped, the following distance to a
moving vehicle ahead in your path is
indicated in following time in seconds on
the Driver Information Center (DIC). See
Driver Information Center (DIC) (Base Level)
0129 or
Driver Information Center (DIC) (Uplevel)
0 130. The minimum following time is
0.5 seconds away.
If there is no vehicle detected ahead, or the
vehicle ahead is out of sensor range, dashes
will be displayed.
Unnecessary Alerts
FCA may provide unnecessary alerts for
turning vehicles, vehicles in other lanes,
objects that are not vehicles, or shadows.
These alerts are normal operation and the
vehicle does not need service.
Cleaning the System
If the FCA system does not seem to operate
properly, this may correct the issue:
.Clean the outside of the windshield in
front of the rearview mirror.
.Clean the entire front of the vehicle.
.Clean the headlamps.
Automatic Emergency
Braking (AEB)
The AEB system may help avoid or reduce
the harm caused by front-end crashes. AEB
also includes Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA).
When the system detects a vehicle ahead in
your path that is traveling in the same
direction that you may be about to crash
into, it can provide a boost to braking or
automatically brake the vehicle. This can
help avoid or lessen the severity of crashes
when driving in a forward gear. Depending
on the situation, the vehicle may
automatically brake moderately or hard.
Always wear a seat belt and ensure that all
passengers are properly restrained. This
automatic emergency braking can only occur
if a vehicle is detected. This is shown by the
FCA vehicle ahead indicator being lit. See
Forward Collision Alert (FCA) System 0261.
The system works when driving in a forward
gear above 4 km/h (2 mph). It can detect
vehicles up to approximately 60 m (197 ft).
{Warning
AEB is an emergency crash preparation
feature and is not designed to avoid
crashes. Do not rely on AEB to brake the
vehicle. AEB will not brake outside of its
operating speed range and only responds
to detected vehicles.
AEB may not:
.Detect a vehicle ahead on winding or
hilly roads.
.Detect all vehicles, especially vehicles
with a trailer, tractors, muddy
vehicles, etc.
.Detect a vehicle when weather limits
visibility, such as in fog, rain, or snow.
.Detect a vehicle ahead if it is partially
blocked by pedestrians or other
objects.
Complete attention is always required
while driving, and you should be ready to
take action and apply the brakes and/or
steer the vehicle to avoid crashes.

pedestrian or bicyclist is detected ahead.
When approaching a detected pedestrian or
bicyclist too quickly, FPB provides a red
flashing alert on the windshield and rapidly
beeps or pulses the driver seat. FPB can
provide a boost to braking or automatically
brake the vehicle. This system includes
Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA), and the
Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) system
may also respond to pedestrians or
bicyclists. SeeAutomatic Emergency Braking
(AEB) 0263. Always wear a seat belt and
ensure that all passengers are properly
restrained.
The FPB system can detect and alert to
pedestrians or bicyclists in a forward gear at
speeds between 8 km/h (5 mph) and
80 km/h (50 mph). During daytime driving,
the system detects pedestrians or bicyclists
up to a distance of approximately 40 m
(131 ft). During nighttime driving, system
performance is very limited.{Warning
FPB does not provide an alert or
automatically brake the vehicle, unless it
detects a pedestrian or bicyclist. FPB may
not detect pedestrians, including children,
or bicyclists:
.When the pedestrian or bicyclist is not
directly ahead, fully visible,
or standing upright, or when part of a
group.
.Due to poor visibility, including
nighttime conditions, fog, rain,
or snow.
.If the FPB sensor is blocked by dirt,
snow, or ice.
.If the headlamps or windshield are not
cleaned or in proper condition.
Be ready to take action and apply the
brakes. For more information, see
Defensive Driving 0183. Keep the
windshield, headlamps, and FPB sensor
clean and in good repair. FPB can be set to Off, Alert, or Alert and
Brake through vehicle settings. To view
available settings from the infotainment
screen, touch Settings > Vehicle >
Collision/Detection Systems.
Detecting the Pedestrian or Bicyclist
Ahead
FPB alerts and automatic braking will not
occur unless the FPB system detects a
pedestrian or bicyclist. When a nearby
pedestrian or bicyclist is detected in front of
the vehicle, the pedestrian ahead indicator
will display amber.
