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
The following distance to a
moving vehicle ahead in your
path is indicated in following
time in seconds on the DriverInformation Center (DIC). See
Driver Information Center
(DIC)
0139. 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)
If equipped, 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. 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 0303.
The system works when
driving in a forward gear
between 8 km/h (5 mph) and

selecting another view on the
instrument cluster.
Warm objects, such as
pedestrians, animals, and
other moving vehicles, should
appear whiter on the Night
Vision display. Cold objects,
such as the sky, signs, and
parked vehicles, should appear
darker. Night Vision only
shows objects that are
warmer or colder than the
surroundings. It does not
detect brake lamps, turn
signals, emergency flashers,
traffic lights, or sign
information.
Use this system as an aid by
occasionally glancing at the
image. Do not stare at the
image or use the image under
well-lit conditions.{Warning
Do not stare at the image
while driving as this might
cause important objects
ahead not to be seen. You
could crash, and you or
others could be injured.
When a pedestrian or large
animal is detected, an amber
box displays around the
pedestrian or animal on the
Night Vision display and an
amber pedestrian icon,
~,
or animal icon,
!, displays on
the instrument cluster. This
pedestrian icon is also shown
on the Head-Up Display (HUD).
When the system detects the
vehicle is approaching a
pedestrian too quickly, the
amber pedestrian icon and box
turns red, and a red flashing
icon,
~, displays on the HUD

below the driver side
headlamp.
The camera must also be
aligned to work correctly.
If the camera needs adjustment, see your dealer.
Do not attempt to adjust the
camera yourself.Side Blind Zone
Alert (SBZA)
If equipped, the SBZA system
is a lane-changing aid that
assists drivers with avoiding
crashes that occur with
moving vehicles in the side
blind zone, or blind spot areas.
When the vehicle is in a
forward gear, the left or right
side mirror display will light up
if a moving vehicle is detected
in that blind zone. If the turn
signal is activated and a
vehicle is also detected on the
same side, the display will flash
as an extra warning not to
change lanes. Since this
system is part of the Lane
Change Alert (LCA) system,
read the entire LCA section
before using this feature.

successfully completing the
sensor matching process.
See "TPMS Sensor Matching
Process" later in this section.
.One or more TPMS sensors
are missing or damaged. The
malfunction light and the DIC
message should go off when
the TPMS sensors are
installed and the sensor
matching process is
performed successfully. See
your dealer for service.
.Replacement tires or wheels
do not match the original
equipment tires or wheels.
Tires and wheels other than
those recommended could
prevent the TPMS from
functioning properly. See
Buying New Tires0395.
.Operating electronic devices
or being near facilities using
radio wave frequencies
similar to the TPMS could
cause the TPMS sensors to
malfunction. If the TPMS is not functioning
properly it cannot detect or
signal a low tire pressure
condition. See your dealer for
service if the TPMS
malfunction light and DIC
message come on and stay on.
Tire Fill Alert (If Equipped)
This feature provides visual
and audible alerts outside the
vehicle to help when inflating
an underinflated tire to the
recommended cold tire
pressure.
When the low tire pressure
warning light comes on:
1. Park the vehicle in a safe, level place.
2. Set the parking brake firmly.
3. Place the vehicle in P (Park).
4. Add air to the tire that is underinflated. The turn
signal lamp will flash. When the recommended
pressure is reached, the
horn sounds once and the
turn signal lamp will stop
flashing and briefly turn
solid.
Repeat these steps for all
underinflated tires that have
illuminated the low tire
pressure warning light.
{Warning
Overinflating a tire could
cause the tire to rupture
and you or others could be
injured. Do not exceed the
maximum pressure listed on
the tire sidewall. See Tire
Sidewall Labeling 0378 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0247.
If the tire is overinflated by
more than 35 kPa (5 psi), the
horn will sound multiple times
and the turn signal lamp will
continue to flash for several
seconds after filling stops. To
release and correct the
pressure, while the turn signal

lamp is still flashing, briefly
press the center of the valve
stem. When the recommended
pressure is reached, the horn
sounds once.
If the turn signal lamp does
not flash within 15 seconds
after starting to inflate the
tire, the tire fill alert has not
been activated or is not
working.
If the hazard warning flashers
are on, the tire fill alert visual
feedback will not work
properly.
The TPMS will not activate the
tire fill alert properly under the
following conditions:
.There is interference from
an external device or
transmitter.
.The air pressure from the
inflation device is not
sufficient to inflate the tire.
.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.
TPMS Sensor Matching
Process
Each TPMS sensor has a
unique identification code. The
identification code needs to be
matched to a new tire/wheel
position after rotating the
vehicle’s tires or replacing one
or more of the TPMS sensors.
The TPMS sensor matching
process should also be
performed after replacing a
spare tire with a road tire
containing the TPMS sensor.
The malfunction light and the DIC message should go off at
the next ignition cycle. The
sensors are matched to the
tire/wheel positions, using a
TPMS relearn tool, in the
following order: driver side
front tire, passenger side front
tire, passenger side rear tire,
and driver side rear. See your
dealer for service or to
purchase a relearn tool.
A TPMS relearn tool can also
be purchased. See Tire
Pressure Monitor Sensor
Activation Tool at www.
gmtoolsandequipment.com or
call 1-800-GM TOOLS
(1-800-468-6657).
There are two minutes to
match the first tire/wheel
position, and five minutes
overall to match all four tire/
wheel positions. If it takes
longer, the matching process
stops and must be restarted.
The TPMS sensor matching
process is:
1. Set the parking brake.
