Park Assist
The vehicle may be equipped with the
Rear Park Assist (RPA) and Front Park
Assist (FPA). The Park Assist system
may provide assistance to driver when
backing up and parking. Park Assist
uses ultrasonic sensors in the
bumpers to measure the distance
between the vehicle and objects. The
system calculates the distance
between vehicle and object via
measuring the time it takes for the
ultrasonic waves to bounce back from the object. Park Assist works only at
speeds up to about 11 Km/h (7 mph).
An illuminated LED in the parking
assist button indicates that the
system is ready to operate. The
sensors on the bumpers may detect
objects up to 1.8m (6 ft) behind and
1.25m (4 ft) in front of the vehicle
within a zone 25 cm (10 in) high off
the ground and below bumper level.
These detection distances may be
shorter during warmer or humid
weather. Blocked sensors will not
detect objects and can also cause false
detections. Keep the sensors clean of
mud, dirt, snow, ice, and slush; and
clean sensors after a car wash in
freezing temperatures.
{Warning
The Park Assist System is no
substitute for careful and attentive
driving. The Park Assist system
does not detect children,
pedestrians, bicyclists, animals,
or objects located below the
bumper or that are too close or too
far from the vehicle. It is not
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
available at speeds greater than
11 km/h (7 mph). To prevent injury,
death, or vehicle damage, even with
Park Assist, always check the area
around the vehicle and check all
mirrors before moving forward or
backing.
How the System Works
The instrument cluster may have a
Park Assist display with bars that
show“distance to object,” driving
direction, and object location
information for the Park Assist
system. As the object gets closer, more
bars light up and the bars change
color from yellow to amber to red.

Cadillac CT4 Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-14584335) -

280 DRIVING AND OPERATING
When an object is very close to the
vehicle rear (<0.6m (2 ft)), five beeps
will sound from the rear followed by a
continuous beep from the rear,
or both sides of the Safety Alert Seat
will pulse five times. When an object
is very close to the vehicle front
(<0.3m (1 ft)), a continuous beep will
sound from the front, or both sides of
the Safety Alert Seat will pulse five
times. Beeps for FPA are higher
pitched than for RPA.
When the System Does Not Seem to
Work Properly
The following messages may be
displayed on the DIC:
SERVICE PARKING ASSIST :If this
message occurs, check the following
conditions:
.The sensors are not clean. Keep the
vehicle's rear bumper free of mud,
dirt, snow, ice, and slush. For
cleaning instructions, see Exterior
Care 0370.
.The Park Assist sensors are covered
by frost or ice. Frost or ice can form
around and behind the sensors and
may not always be seen; this can
occur after washing the vehicle in cold weather. The message may not
clear until the frost or ice has
melted.
If the above conditions do not exist,
take the vehicle to your dealer to
repair the system.
PARK ASSIST OFF : If the PA system
does not activate due to a temporary
condition, the message displays on the
DIC. This can occur under the
following conditions:
.The driver has disabled the system.
.An object was hanging out of the
trunk during the last drive cycle.
Once the object is removed, RPA
will return to normal operation.
.The bumper is damaged. Take the
vehicle to your dealer to repair the
system.
.Other conditions, such as vibrations
from a jackhammer or the
compression of air brakes on a very
large truck, are affecting system
performance. Backing Warning and Reverse
Automatic Braking
Vehicles with Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC) have the Backing Warning
System and Reverse Automatic
Braking (RAB) system. The Backing
Warning part of this system can warn
of rear objects when backing up at
speeds greater than 8 km/h (5 mph),
and RAB may automatically brake
hard at speeds between 1–32 km/h
(0.5–20 mph).
The Backing Warning System will
beep once from the rear when an
object is first detected, or pulse twice
on both sides of the Safety Alert Seat.
When the system detects a potential
crash, beeps will be heard from the
rear, or five pulses will be felt on both
sides of the Safety Alert Seat. There
may also be a brief, sharp application
of the brakes.
{Warning
The Backing Warning System only
operates at speeds greater than
8 km/h (5 mph). It does not detect
children, pedestrians, bicyclists,

DRIVING AND OPERATING 281
Warning (Continued)
animals, or objects below the
bumper or that are too close or too
far from the vehicle. In some
situations, such as at higher
backing speeds, there may not be
enough time for the short, sharp
application of the vehicle brake
system to occur. To prevent injury,
death, or vehicle damage, even with
the Backing Warning System,
always check the area around the
vehicle and check all mirrors before
backing.
When the vehicle is in R (Reverse) and
the system detects the vehicle is
backing too fast to avoid a crash with
a detected object behind your vehicle
in your path, it may automatically
brake hard to a stop to help avoid or
reduce the harm caused by a backing
crash.
{Warning
RAB may not avoid many types of
backing crashes. Do not wait for the
automatic braking to apply. This
system is not designed to replace
driver braking and only works in
R (Reverse) when an object is
detected directly behind the vehicle.
It may not brake or stop in time to
avoid a crash. It will not brake for
objects when the vehicle is moving
at very low speeds. It does not
detect children, pedestrians,
bicyclists, animals, or objects below
the bumper or that are too close or
too far from the vehicle. To prevent
injury, death, or vehicle damage,
even with RAB, always check the
area around the vehicle before and
while backing.
If the brake pedal is not pressed soon
after the stop, the Electric Parking
Brake (EPB) may be set. When it is
safe, press the accelerator pedal firmly
at any time to override RAB.
{Warning
There may be instances where
unexpected or undesired automatic
braking occurs. If this happens,
either press the brake pedal or
firmly press the accelerator pedal to
release the brakes from the RAB
system. Before releasing the brakes,
check the RVC and check the area
around the vehicle to make sure it
is safe to proceed.
Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
If equipped, RCTA displays a red
warning triangle with a left or right
pointing arrow to warn of traffic
coming from the left or right. This
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, either three beeps
sound from the left or right or three
Safety Alert Seat pulses occur on the
left or right side, depending on the
direction of the detected vehicle.

282 DRIVING AND OPERATING
Use caution while backing up when
towing a trailer, as the RCTA
detection zones that extend out from
the back of the vehicle do not move
further back when a trailer is towed.
SeeRadio Frequency Statement 0409.
Turning the Features On or Off
TouchXon the center stack to turn
on or off the Front and Rear Park
Assist, Reverse Automatic Braking
(RAB), and the Backing Warning
System at the same time. The

been disabled.
Turn off Park Assist, RCTA, and RAB
when towing a trailer.
To turn the RPA symbols or guidance
lines (on some models) on or off, see
“Rear Camera Park Assist Symbols”
under Vehicle Personalization 0117.
RCTA can also be turned on or off
through vehicle personalization. See
“Collision/Detection Systems” under
Vehicle Personalization 0117.
Rear Pedestrian Alert
Under certain conditions, this feature
can provide alerts for a pedestrian
within the system’s range directly
behind the vehicle. This feature only
works in R (Reverse) below 12 km/h
(8 mph), and detects pedestrians up to
8 m (26 ft) away during daytime
driving. During nighttime driving,
feature performance is very limited.
Rear Pedestrian Alert Indicator
When a pedestrian is detected within
the system’s range directly behind the
vehicle, this symbol flashes amber on
the infotainment display, along with
two beeps from the rear, or if
equipped, two pulses from both sides
of the driver seat. When a pedestrian
is detected close to the vehicle, the
symbol flashes red on the
infotainment display, along with seven beeps from the rear, or if equipped,
seven pulses from both sides of the
driver seat.
{Warning
Rear Pedestrian Alert does not
automatically brake the vehicle.
It also does not provide an alert
unless it detects a pedestrian, and it
may not detect all pedestrians if:
.The pedestrian is not directly
behind the vehicle, fully visible
to the Rear Vision Camera (RVC),
or standing upright.
.The pedestrian is part of a group.
.The pedestrian is a child.
.Visibility is poor, including
nighttime conditions, fog, rain,
or snow.
.The RVC is blocked by dirt, snow,
or ice.
.The RVC, taillamps, or back-up
lamps are not cleaned or in
proper working condition.
.The vehicle is not in R (Reverse).
