This vehicle is equipped with four-wheel
steering. This feature steers the vehicle with
all four wheels, which reduces the vehicle
turn diameter and improves maneuverability
of the vehicle.
At slower speeds the front and rear wheels
will turn in opposite directions. This helps
the vehicle make tighter turns, such as
during parking, cornering and turning into
tight spaces. At higher speeds the front and
rear wheels will turn in the same direction.
This improves stability of the vehicle during
lane changes and wide turns
When the vehicle is shut-off, the rear
steering angle will automatically return to
the forward position.
Four-wheel steering is not operational when
Super Cruise is active. See Super Cruise
0 227.

Driving and Operating 211
Maximum vehicle speed may be limited if
the four-wheel steering system becomes
inoperable.
When towing a trailer the four-wheel
steering provides enhanced stability allowing
the trailer to follow the path of the tow
vehicle more closely, especially during lane
changes. SeeGeneral Towing Information
0 293 for more information on towing a
trailer.
Four-Wheel Steering Behavior at 0 MPH
The rear wheels may not steer to full travel
when the vehicle is stationary. Additional
travel may be achieved once the vehicle
begins to move.
Care should be taken to ensure the vehicle
path is clear of obstacles if the rear tires
steer once the vehicle is moving.
Limited-Slip Differential
If equipped, the limited-slip differential can
give more traction on snow, mud, ice, sand,
or gravel. It works like a standard axle most
of the time, but when traction is low, this
feature allows the drive wheel with the
most traction to move the vehicle. For
vehicles with the limited-slip differential, driven under severe conditions, the rear axle
fluid should be changed. See
Maintenance
Schedule 0389.
Air Suspension
If equipped, the Air Suspension feature
provides full time load leveling capability
along with the benefit of adjusting ride
height for increased convenience and
capability.
{Warning
To help avoid personal injury or death,
make sure the area underneath the
vehicle and inside the wheel wells is clear
when lowering the vehicle.
{Warning
To help avoid personal injury or death,
always select the lowest ride height for
the current driving conditions. Higher ride
heights raise the vehicle's center of
gravity, increasing the chance of a
rollover during extreme maneuvers.
{Warning
Heavy loads on the roof rack will make
the vehicle's center of gravity higher,
increasing the possibility of a rollover. To
avoid losing control of the vehicle, always
select the normal height setting and
avoid high speeds, sudden starts, sharp
turns, sudden braking, or abrupt
maneuvers when carrying cargo on the
roof rack.
Changing Ride Height
Press either “Up”or“Down” Ride Height
button to open the Ride Height menu. Select
the desired ride height from the following

modified to provide a better towing
experience.
When ACC is used with vehicles equipped
with an aftermarket trailer brake controller,
disengage ACC before applying the manual
trailer brake. ACC will not automatically
disengage when the manual trailer brake is
applied.
ACC may be used when towing a trailer if
the trailer is within the GM-approved
allowable size and weight limits. SeeTrailer
Towing 0297.
When towing a trailer with ACC, it is
important to properly set the Trailer Gain.
See “Integrated Trailer Brake Control
System” inTowing Equipment 0301 for
information about the Trailer Gain
adjustment procedure.

Weather Conditions Affecting ACC
ACC system operation may be limited under
snow, heavy rain, or road spray conditions.
Accessory Installations and Vehicle
Modifications
.Do not install or place any object around
the front camera windshield area that
would obstruct the front camera view.
.Do not install objects on top of the
vehicle that overhang and may obstruct
the front camera, such as a canoe, kayak,
or other items that can be transported on
top of the vehicle.
.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 sensors on the
front of the vehicle can become blocked by
snow, ice, dirt, mud, or other debris. These
areas must be clean for ACC to operate
properly. For proper cleaning instructions,
see the section
“Washing the Vehicle” in
Exterior Care 0379.
If driving conditions temporarily prevent
normal and safe ACC operation, 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.

.There is a malfunction in the TPMS.
.There is a malfunction in the horn or turn
signal lamps.
.The identification code of the TPMS
sensor is not registered to the system.
.The battery of the TPMS sensor is low.
If the tire fill alert does not operate due to
TPMS interference, move the vehicle about
1 m (3 ft) back or forward and try again.
If the tire fill alert feature is not working,
use a tire pressure gauge to confirm tire
pressure.
TPMS Sensor Matching Process —Auto
Learn Function
Each TPMS sensor has a unique
identification code. The identification code
needs to be matched to a new tire/wheel
position after rotating the tires or replacing
one or more of the TPMS sensors. When a
tire is installed, the vehicle must be
stationary for about 20 minutes before the
system recalculates. The following relearn
process takes up to 10 minutes, driving at a
minimum speed of 20 km/h (12 mph). A dash (-) or pressure value will display in
the DIC. See
Driver Information Center (DIC)
(Base Level) 0129 or
Driver Information Center (DIC) (Uplevel)
0 130. A warning message displays in the
DIC if a problem occurs during the relearn
process.
Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring
Operation
If equipped, the Trailer Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TTPMS) is designed to
monitor the pressure of the trailer tires and
warn the driver when a low pressure
condition exists. TTPMS sensors for four tires
are provided. The system can accommodate
a trailer with up to six tires if additional
sensors are purchased from the dealer. Also,
the system can be paired with up to five
individual trailers.
Prior to use, the vehicle must learn the
sensors by following the learning process.
See Trailering App 0310.
Contact your trailer service center or tire
service center to have the pressure sensors
installed inside the trailer tires. The
technician should insert the sensor stem
through the hole in the trailer wheel. When
the sensor is correctly positioned, the nut on
the sensor stem should be tightened to
8Y (6 lb ft). When mounting the trailer
tire onto the trailer wheel be careful not to
damage the sensor.
The Trailering App can be used to view the
tire pressures after the recommended trailer
tire pressures have been entered. Refer to
the trailer tire placard on the trailer or the
trailer tire sidewall for the recommended
tire pressure.

Full-Size Spare Tire
If this vehicle came with a full-size spare
tire, it was fully inflated when new,
however, it can lose air over time. Check the
inflation pressure regularly. See Tire Pressure
0 349 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0193 for information
regarding proper tire inflation and loading the vehicle. For instructions on how to
remove, install, or store a spare tire, see
Tire
Changing 0369.
After installing the spare tire on the vehicle,
stop as soon as possible and check that the
spare is correctly inflated. The spare tire is
made to perform well at speeds up to
112 km/h (70 MPH) at the recommended
inflation pressure, so you can finish
your trip.
Have the damaged or flat road tire repaired
or replaced and installed back onto the
vehicle as soon as possible so the spare tire
will be available in case it is needed again.
Do not mix tires and wheels of different
sizes, because they will not fit. Keep the
spare tire and its wheel together.
Caution
If the vehicle has four-wheel drive and a
different size spare tire is installed, do
not drive in four-wheel drive until the flat
tire is repaired and/or replaced. The
vehicle could be damaged and the repairs
would not be covered by the warranty.
Never use four-wheel drive when a
different size spare tire is installed on the
vehicle.
