DRIVING AND OPERATING 285
ACC may occasionally provide an alert
and/or braking that is considered
unnecessary. It could respond to
vehicles in different lanes, signs,
guardrails, and other stationary
objects when entering or exiting a
curve. This is normal operation. The
vehicle does not need service.
Other Vehicle Lane Changes
ACC will not detect a vehicle ahead
until it is completely in the lane. The
brakes may need to be manually
applied.
Objects Not Directly in Front of Your
Vehicle
The detection of objects in front of
the vehicle may not be possible if:
.The vehicle or object ahead is not
within your lane.
.The vehicle ahead is shifted, not
centered, or is shifted to one side of
the lane.
Driving in Narrow Lanes
Vehicles in adjacent traffic lanes or
roadside objects may be incorrectly
detected when located along the
roadway.
Do Not Use ACC on Hills
Do not use ACC when driving on steep
hills as ACC may not detect a vehicle
ahead.
Towing with ACC
If equipped when towing a trailer, ACC
driving characteristics such as
following gap, acceleration rates and
braking rates may be modified to
provide a better towing experience. ACC should not be used while towing
a trailer with an aftermarket trailer
brake controller. Aftermarket trailer
brake controllers may not function
properly with the ACC system.
ACC may be used when towing a
trailer when trailer attached is within
GM-approved allowable size and
weight limits. See
Trailer Towing
0 340.
When towing a trailer with ACC, it is
important to properly set the Trailer
Gain. See “Integrated Trailer Brake
Control System ”in Towing Equipment
0 344 for Trailer Gain Adjustment
Procedure.

{Warning
Super Cruise is not a crash
avoidance system and will not steer
or brake to avoid a crash. Super
Cruise does not steer to prevent a
crash with stopped or slow-moving
vehicles. You must supervise the
driving task and may need to steer
and brake to prevent a crash,
especially in stop-and-go traffic or
when a vehicle suddenly enters
your lane. Always pay attention
when using Super Cruise. Failure to
do so could result in a crash
involving serious injury or death.

{Warning
The vehicle could drift out of your
lane of travel. To prevent crashes,
always be ready to manually steer. (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
Super Cruise may not detect your
lane on curves in the road. Super
Cruise may not detect the markings
that show your lane. You may not
have time to react to a vehicle in
the lane next to your vehicle while
on curves in the road.
Super Cruise may operate differently
in sharp curves. It may drift out of
your lane of travel if the curve is too
sharp.
When entering a curve, Super Cruise
may not detect the lane markings and
may not adjust the steering enough to stay in your lane of travel. When this
happens, you will need to steer the
vehicle.
Super Cruise may detect other lane
markings that are not in your lane
and may or may not steer
appropriately to maintain your lane.
Super Cruise may occasionally provide
an alert and/or steering that is
considered unnecessary. It could
respond to lane markings in different
lanes, signs, guardrails, and other
stationary objects when entering or
exiting a curve. This is normal
operation. The vehicle does not need
service.

The system warns the driver with
beeps against potentially hazardous
obstacles in the path of the vehicle.
When an object in the driving path is
first detected in the rear, one beep will
be heard from the rear, or the driver's
seat will pulse two times if equipped
with Safety Alert Seat. When an object
is very close, five beeps will sound
from the front or rear, depending on
the object's location, or the driver's

DRIVING AND OPERATING 321
The vehicle ahead indicator will
display amber when you are following
a vehicle ahead much too closely.
Selecting the Alert Timing
The Collision Alert control is on the
steering wheel. Press
[to set the
FCA timing to Far, Medium, or Near.
The first button press shows the
current setting on the DIC. 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 does
not change the following gap setting
(Far, Medium, or Near). Adjustments
to the following gap setting can be
made while ACC is engaged.
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)
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 0319.
The system works when driving in a
forward gear between 8 km/h (5 mph)
and 80 km/h (50 mph), or on vehicles
with Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
above 4 km/h (2 mph). It can detect
vehicles up to approximately 60 m
(197 ft).
{Warning
AEB is an emergency crash
preparation feature and is not
designed to avoid crashes. Do not
rely on AEB to brake the vehicle.
AEB will not brake outside of its
operating speed range and only
responds to detected vehicles. (Continued)

DRIVING AND OPERATING 323
The AEB system does not need
service.
Front Pedestrian Braking
(FPB) System
If equipped, the FPB system may help
avoid or reduce the harm caused by
front-end crashes with pedestrians
near the forward path of the vehicle
when driving in a forward gear. FPB
displays an amber indicator,
~, when
a nearby pedestrian is detected ahead.
When approaching a detected
pedestrian too quickly, FPB provides a
red flashing alert on the windshield
and rapidly beeps or pulses the driver
seat. FPB can provide a boost to
braking or automatically brake the
vehicle. This system includes
Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA), and the
Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB)
system may also respond to
pedestrians. See Automatic Emergency
Braking (AEB) 0321.
The FPB system can detect and alert
to pedestrians in a forward gear at
speeds between 8 km/h (5 mph) and
80 km/h (50 mph). During daytime
driving, the system detects pedestrians up to a distance of
approximately 40 m (131 ft). During
nighttime driving, system performance
is very limited.
{Warning
FPB does not provide an alert or
automatically brake the vehicle,
unless it detects a pedestrian. FPB
may not detect pedestrians,
including children:
.When the pedestrian is not
directly ahead, fully visible,
or standing upright, or when part
of a group.
.Due to poor visibility, including
nighttime conditions, fog, rain,
or snow.
.If the FPB sensor is blocked by
dirt, snow, or ice.
.If the headlamps or windshield
are not cleaned or in proper
condition.
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
Be ready to take action and apply
the brakes. For more information,
seeDefensive Driving 0232. Keep
the windshield, headlamps, and FPB
sensor clean and in good repair.
FPB can be set to Off, Alert, or Alert
and Brake through vehicle
personalization. See “Collision/
Detection Systems” underVehicle
Personalization 0140.
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 in front of the
vehicle, the pedestrian ahead indicator
will display amber.
