LCA Detection Zones
1. SBZA Detection Zone
2. LCA Detection Zone
The LCA sensor covers a zone
of approximately one lane over
from both sides of the vehicle,
or 3.5 m (11 ft). The height of
the zone is approximately
between 0.5 m (1.5 ft) and 2 m
(6 ft) off the ground. The Side
Blind Zone Alert (SBZA)
warning area starts at
approximately the middle of
the vehicle and goes back 5 m
(16 ft). Drivers are also warned
of vehicles rapidly
approaching from up to 70 m
(230 ft) behind the vehicle.
How the System Works
The LCA symbol lights up in
the outside mirrors when the
system detects a moving
vehicle in the next lane over
that is in the side blind zone or
rapidly approaching that zone
from behind. A lit LCA symbol
indicates it may be unsafe to
change lanes. Before making a
lane change, check the LCA
display, check mirrors, glance
over your shoulder, and use
the turn signals.
Left Outside
Mirror DisplayRight Outside
Mirror Display
When the vehicle is started,
both outside mirror LCA
displays will briefly come on to
indicate the system is
operating. When the vehicle is
in a forward gear, the left or
right outside mirror display will light up if a moving vehicle is
detected in the next lane over
in that blind zone or rapidly
approaching that zone. If the
turn signal is activated in the
same direction as a detected
vehicle, this display will flash
as an extra warning not to
change lanes.
LCA can be disabled. When
you disable LCA, Side Blind
Zone Alert is also disabled. To
view available settings from
the infotainment screen, touch
Settings > Vehicle > Collision/
Detection Systems. If LCA is
disabled by the driver, the LCA
mirror displays will not light up.
When the System Does
Not Seem to Work
Properly
The LCA system requires
some driving for the system to
calibrate to maximum
performance. This calibration
may occur more quickly if the
vehicle is driving on a straight

Driving and Operating 351
highway road with traffic and
roadside objects (e.g.,
guardrails, barriers).
LCA displays may not come on
when passing a vehicle quickly,
for a stopped vehicle, or when
towing a trailer. The LCA
detection zones that extend
back from the side of the
vehicle do not move further
back when a trailer is towed.
Use caution while changing
lanes when towing a trailer.
LCA may alert to objects
attached to the vehicle, such
as a trailer, bicycle, or object
extending out to either side of
the vehicle. Attached objects
may also interfere with the
detection of vehicles. This is
normal system operation; the
vehicle does not need service.
LCA may not always alert the
driver to vehicles in the next
lane over, especially in wet
conditions or when driving on
sharp curves. The system
does not need to be serviced.
The system may light up dueto guardrails, signs, trees,
shrubs, and other non-moving
objects. This is normal system
operation; the vehicle does not
need service.
LCA may not operate when
the LCA sensors in the left or
right corners of the rear
bumper are covered with mud,
dirt, snow, ice, or slush, or in
heavy rainstorms. For cleaning
instructions, see "Washing the
Vehicle" under Exterior Care
0
455. If the DIC still displays
the system unavailable
message after cleaning both
sides of the vehicle toward the
rear corners of the vehicle,
see your dealer.
If the LCA displays do not light
up when moving vehicles are
in the side blind zone or are
rapidly approaching this zone
and the system is clean, the
system may need service.
Take the vehicle to your
dealer.Lane Keep
Assist (LKA)
If equipped, LKA may help
avoid crashes due to
unintentional lane departures.
This system uses a camera to
detect lane markings. LKA may
be ready to assist at speeds
between 60 km/h (37 mph) and
180 km/h (112 mph). On some
vehicles, the system will
instead operate above
50 km/h (31 mph). LKA may
assist by gently turning the
steering wheel if the vehicle
approaches a detected lane
marking. It may also provide a
Lane Departure Warning
(LDW) alert if the vehicle
unintentionally crosses a
detected lane marking. This
system is not intended to keep
the vehicle centered in the
lane. LKA will not assist or
alert if the turn signal is active
in the direction of lane
departure, or if it detects that
you are accelerating, braking,
or actively steering. LKA can

352 Driving and Operating
be overridden by turning the
steering wheel. If the system
detects you are steering
intentionally across a lane
marker, the LDW will not be
given. Do not expect the LDW
to occur when you are
intentionally crossing a lane
marker.
{Warning
The LKA system does not
continuously steer the
vehicle. It may not keep the
vehicle in the lane or give a
Lane Departure Warning
(LDW) alert, even if a lane
marking is detected.
The LKA and LDW systems
may not:
.Provide an alert or enough
steering assist to avoid a
lane departure or crash.
.Detect lane markings
under poor weather or
visibility conditions. This
can occur if the windshield(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
or headlamps are blocked
by dirt, snow, or ice; if they
are not in proper
condition; or if the sun
shines directly into the
camera.
.Detect road edges.
.Detect lanes on winding or
hilly roads.
If LKA only detects lane
markings on one side of the
road, it will only assist or
provide an LDW alert when
approaching the lane on the
side where it has detected a
lane marking. Even with LKA
and LDW, you must steer
the vehicle. Always keep
your attention on the road
and maintain proper vehicle
position within the lane,
or vehicle damage, injury,
or death could occur. Always
keep the windshield,
headlamps, and camera (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
sensors clean and in good
repair. Do not use LKA in
bad weather conditions or
on roads with unclear lane
markings, such as
construction zones.
{Warning
Using LKA on slippery roads
could cause loss of control
of the vehicle and a crash.
Turn the system off.
{Warning
LKA will not alert the driver
if a towed trailer crosses
into an adjacent lane of
travel. Serious injury or
property damage may occur
if the trailer moves into
another lane. Always
monitor the trailer position(Continued)

Warning (Continued)
while towing to make sure it
is within the same lane as
the tow vehicle.
How the System Works
LKA uses a camera sensor
installed on the windshield
ahead of the rearview mirror
to detect lane markings. It may
provide brief steering assist if
it detects an unintended lane
departure. It may further
provide an audible alert or the
driver seat may pulse
indicating that a lane marking
has been crossed. The system
does not provide a Lane
Departure Warning (LDW)
when intentionally steering
across a lane marker.
To turn LKA on and off, press
Aon the center stack.
If equipped, the indicator light
on the button comes on when
LKA is on and turns off when
LKA is disabled. In some vehicles, a long press of over
three seconds is required to
turn LKA off.
When on,
Ais white,
if equipped, indicating that the
system is not ready to assist.
Ais green if LKA is ready to
assist. LKA may assist by
gently turning the steering
wheel if the vehicle
approaches a detected lane
marking.
Ais amber when
assisting. It may also provide a
Lane Departure Warning
(LDW) alert by flashing
A
amber if the vehicle crosses a
detected lane marking.
Additionally, there may be
three beeps, or the driver seat
may pulse three times, on the
right or left, depending on the
lane departure direction.
Take Steering
The LKA system does not
continuously steer the vehicle.
If LKA does not detect active
driver steering, an alert and
chime may be provided. Steer the vehicle to dismiss. LKA
may become temporarily
unavailable after repeated
take steering alerts.
When the System Does
Not Seem to Work
Properly
The system performance may
be affected by:
.Close vehicles ahead.
.Sudden lighting changes,
such as when driving
through tunnels.
.Banked roads.
.Roads with poor lane
markings, such as two-lane
roads.
If the LKA system is not
functioning properly when lane
markings are clearly visible,
cleaning the windshield
may help.
A camera blocked message
may display if the camera is
blocked. Some driver
assistance systems may have
reduced performance or not

Washer Fluid
What to Use
When windshield washer fluid
is needed, be sure to read the
manufacturer's instructions
before use. If operating the
vehicle in an area where the
temperature may fall below
freezing, use a fluid that has
sufficient protection against
freezing.
Adding Washer Fluid
Open the cap with the washer
symbol on it. Add washer fluid
until the tank is full. See
Engine Compartment
Overview0373 for reservoir
location.
Caution
.Do not use washer fluid
that contains any type of
water repellent coating.
This can cause the wiper
blades to chatter or skip.
.Do not use engine coolant
(antifreeze) in the
windshield washer. It can
damage the windshield
washer system and paint.
.Do not mix water with
ready-to-use washer fluid.
Water can cause the
solution to freeze and
damage the washer fluid
tank and other parts of
the washer system.
.When using concentrated
washer fluid, follow the
manufacturer instructions
for adding water.
.Fill the washer fluid tank
only three-quarters full
when it is very cold. This
allows for fluid expansion
(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
if freezing occurs, which
could damage the tank if it
is completely full.
Brakes
Disc brake linings, except J57
V-Series Blackwing with
carbon ceramic brakes, have
built-in wear indicators that
make a high-pitched warning
sound when the brake linings
are worn and new linings are
needed. The sound can come
and go or can be heard all the
time when the vehicle is
moving, except when applying
the brake pedal firmly. The
V-Series Blackwing has
electronic pad wear sensors.

be turned off. This may be
necessary if aftermarket brake
pads without wear sensors
are installed. When the system
is turned off, the front and
rear brake pad
life percentages will not
display. However, the built-in
wear indicators that make a
high-pitched warning sound
when the brake pads are worn
can still determine when the
pads should be replaced. See
Brakes 0393.
To turn off the brake pad life
system: 1. Display Brake Pad Life on the DIC. See Driver

Remove the valve cap from
the tire valve stem. Press
the tire gauge firmly onto
the valve to get a pressure
measurement. If the cold
tire inflation pressure
matches the recommended
pressure on the Tire and
Loading Information label,
no further adjustment is
necessary. If the inflation
pressure is low, add air
until the recommended
pressure is reached. If the
inflation pressure is high,
press on the metal stem in
the center of the tire valve
to release air.
Recheck the tire pressure
with the tire gauge.
Put the valve caps back on
the valve stems to keep out
dirt and moisture. Use only
valve caps designed for the
vehicle by GM. TPMSsensors could be damaged
and would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty.
Tire Pressure for
High-Speed Operation
{Warning
Driving at high speeds,
160 km/h (100 mph) or
higher, puts additional strain
on tires. Sustained
high-speed driving causes
excessive heat buildup and
can cause sudden tire
failure. This could cause a
crash, and you or others
could be killed. Some
high-speed rated tires
require inflation pressure
adjustment for high-speed
operation. When speed
limits and road conditions
allow the vehicle to be
driven at high speeds, make
sure the tires are rated for
high-speed operation, are in

Warning (Continued)
excellent condition, and are
set to the correct cold tire
inflation pressure for the
vehicle load.
Vehicles with tire sizes listed
in the High Speed Operation
Inflation Pressures table
require inflation pressure
adjustment when driving the
vehicle at speeds of 160 km/h
(100 mph) or higher. Set the
cold tire inflation pressure to
the corresponding value in the
table for the tire size on the
vehicle.
