234 DRIVING AND OPERATING
Steering in Emergencies
.There are some situations when
steering around a problem may be
more effective than braking.
.Holding both sides of the steering
wheel allows you to turn
180 degrees without removing
a hand.
.Antilock Brake System (ABS) allows
steering while braking.
Off-Road Recovery
The vehicle's right wheels can drop off
the edge of a road onto the shoulder
while driving. Follow these tips:1. Ease off the accelerator and then,
if there is nothing in the way, steer
the vehicle so that it straddles the
edge of the pavement.
2. Turn the steering wheel about one-eighth of a turn, until the right
front tire contacts the
pavement edge.
3. Turn the steering wheel to go straight down the roadway.
Loss of Control
Skidding
There are three types of skids that
correspond to the vehicle's three
control systems:
.Braking Skid —wheels are not
rolling.
.Steering or Cornering Skid —too
much speed or steering in a curve
causes tires to slip and lose
cornering force.
.Acceleration Skid —too much
throttle causes the driving wheels
to spin. Defensive drivers avoid most skids by
taking reasonable care suited to
existing conditions, and by not
overdriving those conditions. But
skids are always possible.
If the vehicle starts to slide, follow
these suggestions:
.Ease your foot off the accelerator
pedal and steer the way you want
the vehicle to go. The vehicle may
straighten out. Be ready for a
second skid if it occurs.
.Slow down and adjust your driving
according to weather conditions.
Stopping distance can be longer and
vehicle control can be affected when
traction is reduced by water, snow,
ice, gravel, or other material on the
road. Learn to recognize warning
clues
—such as enough water, ice,
or packed snow on the road to
make a mirrored surface —and
slow down when you have any
doubt.
.Try to avoid sudden steering,
acceleration, or braking, including
reducing vehicle speed by shifting
to a lower gear. Any sudden changes
could cause the tires to slide.

Cadillac Escalade Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-
15567102) - 2022 - CRC - 11/17/21
240 DRIVING AND OPERATING
.Pay attention to special road signs
(e.g., falling rocks area, winding
roads, long grades, passing or
no-passing zones) and take
appropriate action.
Winter Driving
Driving on Snow or IceCaution
To avoid damage to the wheels and
brake components, always clear
snow and ice from inside the
wheels and underneath the vehicle
before driving.
Snow or ice between the tires and the
road creates less traction or grip, so
drive carefully. Wet ice can occur at
about 0 °C (32 °F) when freezing rain
begins to fall. Avoid driving on wet ice
or in freezing rain until roads can be
treated.
For Slippery Road Driving:
.Accelerate gently. Accelerating too
quickly causes the wheels to spin
and makes the surface under the
tires slick.
.Turn on Traction Control. See
Traction Control/Electronic Stability
Control 0265.
.The Antilock Brake System (ABS)
improves vehicle stability during
hard stops, but the brakes should be
applied sooner than when on dry
pavement. See Antilock Brake System
(ABS) 0262.
.Allow greater following distance and
watch for slippery spots. Icy patches
can occur on otherwise clear roads
in shaded areas. The surface of a
curve or an overpass can remain icy
when the surrounding roads are
clear. Avoid sudden steering
maneuvers and braking while
on ice.
.Turn off cruise control.
Cold Weather Mode
In very low temperatures, a cold
weather message may display on the
Driver Information Center (DIC). The
engine speed, transmission shift
patterns, and cabin fan speed may
operate differently to enable the
vehicle to warm up quicker. You can
manually override the cabin fan speed
in cold weather mode.
Blizzard Conditions
Stop the vehicle in a safe place and
signal for help. Stay with the vehicle
unless there is help nearby. If possible,
use Roadside Service. See Roadside
Service 0475. To get help and keep
everyone in the vehicle safe:
.Turn on the hazard warning
flashers.
.Tie a red cloth to an outside mirror.
{Warning
Snow can trap engine exhaust
under the vehicle. This may cause
exhaust gases to get inside. Engine
exhaust contains carbon monoxide
(CO), which cannot be seen or
smelled. It can cause
unconsciousness and even death.
If the vehicle is stuck in snow:
.Clear snow from the base of the
vehicle, especially any blocking
the exhaust pipe.

Erasing Speed Memory
The cruise control set speed is erased
from memory if
5is pressed or if the
ignition is turned off.
Weather Conditions Affecting 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 obstruct the
front camera, such as a canoe, kayak,
or other items that can be transported
on a roof rack system. See Roof Rack
System 0102.
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
radar sensors on the front of the
vehicle can become blocked by snow,
ice, dirt, mud, or debris. These areas
need to be cleaned for ACC to operate
properly.
If ACC will not operate, 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.
For cleaning instructions, see
“Washing the Vehicle ”under Exterior
Care 0444.
Super Cruise
If equipped, Super Cruise can steer to
maintain lane position under certain
conditions on Super Cruise-enabled
roads that are separated from
opposing traffic. Super Cruise can also steer to perform
a lane change under certain
conditions on Super Cruise-enabled
roads.
A lane change can be initiated by the
driver using the turn signal lever.
The Super Cruise system may initiate
a lane change maneuver in following
scenarios:
.to pass slower traffic
.when the current lane is ending
ahead
.to return to the initial lane
See “Super Cruise Lane Change ”later
in this section and Turn and
Lane-Change Signals 0155.
{Warning
Super Cruise can only assist to
maintain lane position, or steer to
change lanes, when driving on
compatible roads. You must
supervise the driving task and
monitor the road conditions. You
may need to respond to traffic

^will be blue. The
driver is in control of steering and
Super Cruise is not steering the
vehicle.
When the vehicle is positioned in the
center of the lane, the steering wheel
light bar and
^display will turn
green, indicating Super Cruise is
steering the vehicle.
When Super Cruise controls the
steering, traffic and other conditions
and laws permit, and it is safe to do
so, your hands can be taken off the
steering wheel.
Always pay attention to the road and
the operation of the vehicle. Always
monitor and be attentive of surrounding traffic, including vehicles
that may cross the road in front of
your vehicle.
Super Cruise steering can be
overridden with manual steering at
any time. When Super Cruise is
engaged, always be prepared to take
immediate action
—including
steering, accelerating, and braking
quickly, if necessary.
Super Cruise, when engaged, will
enable Forward Collision System to
alert and brake.
Steering Manually and Changing
Lanes
The vehicle can always be manually
steered, even with Super Cruise
engaged; for example, when manually
changing lanes.
When the steering wheel is moved
manually, the steering wheel light bar
flashes blue and
^on the
instrument cluster turns blue to
indicate Super Cruise is not steering
the vehicle. When ready to allow Super Cruise to
resume steering again, position the
vehicle in the center of the lane, hold
the steering wheel until the steering
wheel light bar turns green, and then
release the steering wheel when it is
safe to do so.
{Warning
To help prevent crashes before
making a lane change:
.Always check mirrors.
.Glance over your shoulder.
.Use the turn signals.
Super Cruise Lane Change
Super Cruise can steer to perform a
single lane change under certain
conditions when requested by the
driver or initiated by the Super Cruise
System.
To request a lane change: 1. Verify the lane next to your vehicle is clear and conditions are safe to
make a lane change.
