ahead changing lanes. Your vehicle may
not stop and could cause a crash. Use
caution when using ACC. Your complete
attention is always required while driving
and you should be ready to take action
and apply the brakes.
Irregular Objects Affecting ACC
ACC may have difficulty detecting the
following objects:
.Vehicles with cargo extending from the
back end.
.Non-standard shaped vehicles, such as
vehicle transport, vehicles with a side car
fitted, or horse carriages.
.Objects that are close to the front of your
vehicle.
ACC Automatically Disengages
ACC may automatically disengage and the
driver will need to manually apply the
brakes to slow the vehicle if:
.The sensors are blocked.
.The Traction Control System (TCS) or
Stabilitrack/ESC has activated or been
disabled.
.There is a fault in the system.
.The radar falsely reports blockage when
driving in a desert or remote area with
no other vehicles or roadside objects.
.A DIC message may display to indicate
that ACC is temporarily unavailable.
The ACC active symbol will turn white when
ACC is no longer active.
In some cases, when ACC is temporarily
unavailable, regular cruise control may be
used. See “Switching Between ACC and
Regular Cruise Control” previously in this
section. Always consider driving conditions
before using either cruise control system.
Notification to Resume ACC
ACC will maintain a following gap behind a
detected vehicle and slow your vehicle to a
stop behind that vehicle.
If the stopped vehicle ahead has driven
away and ACC has not resumed, the vehicle
ahead indicator will flash as a reminder to
check traffic ahead before proceeding. In
addition, the left and right sides of the
Safety Alert Seat will pulse three times,
or three beeps will sound. Touch the
Settings icon on the infotainment home
page. Select “Vehicle”to display the list of available options and select
”Alert Type”and
“Adaptive Cruise Go Notifier” in“Collision/
Detection Systems”.
If equipped with Driver Attention System
(DAS) located on top of the steering column,
when the vehicle ahead drives away, and
DAS determines if the driver's attention is
on the road ahead, ACC resumes
automatically. See “Attention to the Road”
under Super Cruise 0258. If necessary, press
RES+ or the accelerator pedal to resume
ACC. If stopped for more than two minutes
or if the driver door is opened and the
driver seat belt is unbuckled, the ACC
automatically applies the Electric Parking
Brake (EPB) to hold the vehicle. The EPB
status light will turn on. See Electric Parking
Brake 0236. To release the EPB, press the
accelerator pedal.
A DIC warning message may display
indicating to shift to P (Park) before exiting
the vehicle. See Vehicle Messages 0130.
{Warning
If ACC has stopped the vehicle, and if ACC
is disengaged, turned off, or canceled, the
vehicle will no longer be held at a stop.

Park Assist
The vehicle may be equipped with Rear Park
Assist (RPA) or Front and Rear Park Assist
(FRPA). Under certain conditions, the Park
Assist system can assist the driver during backing and parking maneuvers when the
vehicle is driven at no more than 9 km/h
(6 mph). An illuminated indicator in the Park
Assist button indicates the system is ready.
Sensors located in the bumpers measure the
distance between the vehicle and objects
using sonar technology. These sensors are
designed to detect certain objects up to
1.8 m (6 ft) behind and 1.3 m (4 ft) in front of
your vehicle that are taller than
25 cm (10 in).
Different environmental conditions may
affect whether and how far the Park Assist
system can detect objects. Keep the sensors
clean of mud, dirt, snow, ice, and slush; and
clean sensors after a car wash in freezing
temperatures. Sensors that are not clean
may not detect objects or may cause the
system to alert when not required.
{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

.The Park Assist sensors may be 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 this message displays and the above
conditions do not exist, take the vehicle to
your dealer for repair.
PARK ASSIST OFF
If the Park Assist System does not activate
due to a temporary condition, this message
is shown on the display. This can occur
under the following conditions:
.The driver has disabled the system.
.An object is currently blocking the rear
sensors (for example, bike rack, tailgate,
trailer hitch, etc.) Once the object is
removed, Park Assist will return to normal
operation.
.The bumper is damaged. Take the vehicle
to your dealer for repairs.
.Other conditions, such as vibrations from
a jackhammer or the compression of air
brakes on a very large truck, are affecting
system performance.
Automatic Parking Assist (APA)
If equipped, under certain conditions
Enhanced Automatic Parking Assist (APA) can
use sensors based on sonar technology
along the vehicle’s front, rear and sides to
detect a parking spot and automatically park
the vehicle. The vehicle will automatically
maneuver into a detected spot moving at or
near idle speed. It does this by
automatically steering, braking, accelerating,
and gear shifting. The driver must always be
prepared to apply braking if necessary. A
display and beeps help to guide the parking
maneuvers.
{Warning
APA may not always detect objects in the
parking space, objects that are not rigid
(e.g. shrubs and chain-link fences), objects
below the bumper, objects high off the
ground (e.g. flatbed trucks), hanging
objects, objects below ground level (e.g.
large potholes), or moving objects (e.g.
pedestrians, cyclists, vehicles). Always
verify that the parking space is
appropriate for parking a vehicle. APA
may not respond to changes in the (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
parking space, such as movement of an
adjacent vehicle, or a person or object
entering the parking space. APA does not
detect or avoid traffic that is behind or
alongside of the vehicle. Always be
prepared to stop the vehicle during the
parking maneuver.
How to Activate Automatic Parking
To activate APA, press
Oon the Home
Page of the infotainment display for the
system to begin searching for a parking
space while driving forward at no greater
than 30 km/h (18 mph). By default, APA
searches for parallel parking spaces to the
right of the vehicle up to the sensors’ range
of 1.5 m (5 ft). To search for a parking space
to the left, turn on the left turn signal or,
if available, change the side selection in the
infotainment display. To switch the parking
mode between parallel and perpendicular
press and hold
Owhile searching for a
valid parking spot or, if available, change the
parking mode in the infotainment display.

condition. See your dealer for service if the
TPMS malfunction light and DIC message
come on and stay on.
Tire Fill Alert (If Equipped)
This feature provides visual and audible
alerts outside the vehicle to help when
inflating an underinflated tire to the
recommended cold tire pressure.
When the low tire pressure warning light
comes on: 1. Park the vehicle in a safe, level place.
2. Set the parking brake firmly.
3. Place the vehicle in P (Park).
4. Add air to the tire that is underinflated. The turn signal lamp will flash.
When the recommended pressure is
reached, the horn sounds once and the
turn signal lamp will stop flashing and
briefly turn solid. Repeat these steps for all underinflated tires
that have illuminated the low tire pressure
warning light.
{Warning
Overinflating a tire could cause the tire
to rupture and you or others could be
injured. Do not exceed the maximum
pressure listed on the tire sidewall. See
Tire Sidewall Labeling
0370 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0215.
If the tire is overinflated by more than
35 kPa (5 psi), the horn will sound multiple
times and the turn signal lamp will continue
to flash for several seconds after filling
stops. To release and correct the pressure,
while the turn signal lamp is still flashing,
briefly press the center of the valve stem.
When the recommended pressure is reached,
the horn sounds once.
If the turn signal lamp does not flash within
15 seconds after starting to inflate the tire,
the tire fill alert has not been activated or is
not working.
If the hazard warning flashers are on, the
tire fill alert visual feedback will not work
properly.
