Cadillac CT6 Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-11292458) -

DRIVING AND OPERATING 265
Warning (Continued)
Be ready to take action and apply
the brakes. For more information,
seeDefensive Driving 0207. Keep
the windshield, headlamps, and FPB
sensor clean and in good repair.
FPB can be set to Off, Alert, or Alert &
Brake through vehicle personalization.
See “Front Pedestrian Detection ”in
“Collision/Detection Systems” under
Vehicle Personalization 0170.
Detecting the Pedestrian Ahead
FPB alerts and automatic braking will
not occur unless the FPB system
detects a pedestrian. When a nearby
pedestrian is detected directly in front
of the vehicle, the pedestrian ahead
indicator will display amber.
Front Pedestrian Alert
With Head-Up Display
Without Head-Up Display
When the vehicle approaches a
pedestrian ahead too rapidly, the red
FPB alert display will flash on the
windshield. Eight rapid high-pitched
beeps will sound from the front,
or both sides of the Safety Alert Seat
will pulse five times. When this
Pedestrian 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. Cruise control may be disengaged
when the Front Pedestrian Alert
occurs.
Automatic Braking
If FPB detects it is about to crash into
a pedestrian directly ahead, and the
brakes have not been applied, FPB
may automatically brake moderately
or brake hard. This can help to avoid
some very low speed pedestrian
crashes or reduce pedestrian injury.
FPB can automatically brake to
detected pedestrians between 8 km/h
(5 mph) and 80 km/h (50 mph).
Automatic braking levels may be
reduced under certain conditions,
such as higher speeds. If also
equipped with the Night Vision
system, pedestrians detected by the
Night Vision system will not cause
automatic braking to occur.
If this happens, Automatic Braking
may engage the Electric Parking Brake
(EPB) to hold the vehicle at a stop.
Release the EPB. A firm press of the
accelerator pedal will also release
Automatic Braking and the EPB.

266 DRIVING AND OPERATING
{Warning
FPB may alert or automatically
brake the vehicle suddenly in
situations where it is unexpected
and undesired. It could falsely alert
or brake for objects similar in shape
or size to pedestrians, including
shadows. This is normal operation
and the vehicle does not need
service. To override Automatic
Braking, firmly press the accelerator
pedal, if it is safe to do so.
Automatic Braking can be disabled
through vehicle personalization. See
“Front Pedestrian Detection ”in
“Collision/Detection Systems” under
Vehicle Personalization 0170.
{Warning
Using the Front Pedestrian Braking
system while towing a trailer could
cause you to lose control of the
vehicle and crash. Turn the system
to Alert or Off when towing a
trailer.
Cleaning the System
If FPB does not seem to operate
properly, cleaning the outside of the
windshield in front of the rearview
mirror may correct the issue.
Night Vision System
If equipped, this system can help the
driver see and alert the driver to
pedestrians or large animals ahead of
the vehicle beyond the area lit by the
headlamps. A thermal heat image of
the view ahead is displayed when it is
dark enough outside. If a pedestrian
or large animal is detected more than
25 m (82 ft) away, an amber
pedestrian or animal icon displays and
a box appears around the pedestrian
or animal. When the system detects
that the vehicle is approaching a
pedestrian ahead much too quickly,
the box changes to red.
With the Front Pedestrian Braking
system turned on, Night Vision
provides a red Head-Up Display (HUD)
alert when the system detects that the
vehicle is approaching a pedestrian
ahead much too quickly. In addition,
an alert beeps or the Safety Alert Seat
pulses, if equipped. See Front
Pedestrian Braking (FPB) System 0264.
{Warning
The system does not detect all
objects or the vehicle distance from
objects. The system may not
provide a warning with enough time
to help avoid a crash.

1. Low-Beam Headlamps
2. High-Beam Headlamps
3. Night Vision System
By selecting a view on the instrument
cluster, the Night Vision image can be
displayed.
SeeInstrument Cluster (Base Level)
0 127 orInstrument Cluster (Uplevel)
0 130. The Night Vision system can
operate only if:
. The ignition is on.
. The vehicle is in P (Park) or a
forward gear.
. It is dark enough outside.
. The headlamps are on. Adjust the instrument panel
brightness to make the image no
brighter than necessary. Turn the
image off by 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 much too
quickly, the amber box turns red, and
a red flashing icon,
~, displays on the
HUD with rapid beeping or pulsing of
the Safety Alert Seat, if equipped.
System pedestrian icons, beeps, and
(if equipped) Safety Alert Seat pulses
can be set to Off through vehicle
personalization by turning off the
Front Pedestrian Braking system. See
“Front Pedestrian Detection ”in
“Collision/Detection Systems” under
Vehicle Personalization 0170.
{Warning
The Night Vision system does not
automatically brake the vehicle.
It does not provide alerts unless it

4. Reapply the brake pedal. Thenapply the parking brake and shift
into P (Park).
5. Release the brake pedal.
Leaving After Parking on a Hill
1. Apply and hold the brake pedal.
2. Start the engine.
3. Shift into a gear.
4. Release the parking brake.
5. Let up on the brake pedal.
6. Drive slowly until the trailer is clear of the chocks.
7. Stop and have someone pick up and store the chocks.
Maintenance when Trailer
Towing
The vehicle needs service more often
when pulling a trailer. . Things that
are especially important in trailer
operation are automatic transmission
fluid, engine oil, axle lubricant, belts,
cooling system, and brake system. It is
a good idea to inspect these before
and during the trip. Check periodically to see that all hitch
nuts and bolts are tight.
Trailer Towing
(PLUG-IN Only)
The vehicle is neither designed nor
intended to tow a trailer.
Trailer Towing
(Gasoline Only)
Before pulling a trailer, three
important considerations have to do
with weight:
.
Weight of the trailer.
. Weight of the trailer tongue.
. Total weight on your vehicle's
tires.
Weight of the Trailer
How heavy can a trailer safely be?
It should never weigh more than
454 kg (1,000 lb). But even that can be
too heavy.
Safe trailering requires monitoring the
weight, speed, altitude, road grades,
outside temperature, the dimensions of the front of the trailer, and how
frequently the vehicle is used to pull a
trailer. Take into consideration any
special equipment on the vehicle, and
the amount of tongue weight the
vehicle can carry. See
“Weight of the
Trailer Tongue ”later in this section
for more information.
Trailer weight rating (TWR) is
calculated assuming the tow vehicle
has the driver, a front seat passenger,
and all required trailering equipment.
Weight of additional optional
equipment, passengers, and cargo in
the tow vehicle must be subtracted
from the trailer weight rating.
Ask your dealer for trailering
information or advice, or write us at
our Customer Assistance Offices. See
Customer Assistance Offices 0410.Weight of the Trailer Tongue
The tongue weight load (1) of any
trailer is very important because it is
also part of the vehicle weight. The
Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) includes
the curb weight of the vehicle, any
cargo carried in it, and the people who
will be riding in the vehicle, as well as
trailer tongue weight. Vehicle options,
