.Press and hold the thumbwheel down to
SET−to decrease the set speed by 5 km/h
(5 mph). Release the thumbwheel when
the desired set speed is displayed in the
instrument cluster.
When using Speed Limiter in Auto mode,
there is a predefined minimum allowed
value of offset beyond which the set speed
cannot be decreased.
Accept or Decline Automatic Set Speed
Changes (Auto)
When Speed Limiter is in Auto mode, is
active, and a new speed limit sign is
detected, it will propose a new set speed
based on the detected speed limit sign. The
proposed new set speed will be displayed as
a message in the instrument cluster.
.To accept the new set speed, briefly
move the thumbwheel down to SET− and
release it.
.To decline the new set speed, briefly
move the thumbwheel up to RES+ and
release it.
If you do not accept or decline the new
proposed set speed, there is no change to
the set speed. Conditions Affecting Automatic Speed
Limiter (Auto)
.There are changes in brightness, such as
entering and exiting tunnels, bridges, and
overpasses.
.There are low sun angles.
.Ambient lighting is poor in the evening or
early morning.
.There are multiple changes in brightness
or there are shadows along the roadway.
.There are conditions associated with low
visibility such as fog, rain, snow, or road
spray.
.The on-board camera’s view of the road is
blocked by leaves, snow, or other debris.
If Automatic Speed Limiter becomes
temporarily unavailable, change to
Manual mode.
Resuming Speed Limiter
If Speed Limiter was active but then
*was
pressed, Speed Limiter can be resumed using
the previous set speed. Briefly move the
thumbwheel up to RES+ and release it to
activate Speed Limiter using the previous set
speed. If Speed Limiter was turned off because
cruise control, ACC, or Super Cruise was
turned on, to use Speed Limiter again:
1. Turn off cruise control, ACC, or Super Cruise.
2. On the infotainment home screen, touch Controls > Drive (Drive & Park) > Speed
Limiter.
3. Select Manual or Auto.
Overriding Speed Limiter
When Speed Limiter is active, the set speed
can be temporarily overridden only when
you fully apply the accelerator pedal. You
can control vehicle acceleration again when
the vehicle speed is below the set speed.
Turning Off Speed Limiter
To turn off Speed Limiter, from the
infotainment home screen, touch Controls >
Drive (Drive & Park) > Speed Limiter > Off.Adaptive Cruise Control
(Advanced)
If equipped with Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC), it allows the driver to select the
cruise control set speed and following gap.
Read this entire section before using this
system. The following gap is the following

17180837) - 2024 - CRC - 2/28/23
Driving and Operating 197
time between your vehicle and a vehicle
detected directly ahead in your path,
moving in the same direction. If no vehicle
is detected in your path, ACC works like
regular cruise control. ACC uses camera and
radar sensors. SeeRadio Frequency
Statement 0348.
If a vehicle is detected in your path, ACC can
apply acceleration or limited, moderate
braking to maintain the selected following
gap. To disengage ACC, apply the brake.
If ACC is controlling your vehicle speed
when the Traction Control System (TCS) or
StabiliTrak/Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system activates, the ACC may automatically
disengage. See Traction Control/Electronic
Stability Control 0189. When road
conditions allow ACC to be safely used, the
ACC can be turned back on.
Disabling the TCS or StabiliTrak/ESC system
will disengage and prevent engagement
of ACC. ACC can reduce the need for you to
frequently brake and accelerate, especially
when used on expressways, freeways, and
interstate highways. When used on other
roads, you may need to take over the
control of braking or acceleration more
often.
ACC automatically slows the vehicle down
while navigating the curve and may increase
speed out of the curve, but will not exceed
the set speed.
{Warning
ACC has limited braking ability and may
not have time to slow the vehicle down
enough to avoid a collision with another
vehicle you are following. This can occur
when vehicles suddenly slow or stop
ahead, or enter your lane. Also see
“Alerting the Driver”
in this section.
Complete attention is always required
while driving and you should be ready to
take action and apply the brakes. See
Defensive Driving 0164.
{Warning
ACC will not detect or brake for children,
pedestrians, animals, or other objects.
Do not use ACC when:
.On winding and hilly roads or when
the sensors are blocked by snow, ice,
or dirt. The system may not detect a
vehicle ahead. Keep the entire front of
the vehicle clean.
.Visibility is poor due to rain, snow,
fog, dirt, insect residue, or dust; when
other foreign objects obscure the
camera and/or radar; or when the
vehicle in front or oncoming traffic
causes additional environmental
obstructions, such as road spray. ACC
performance is limited under these
conditions.
.On slippery roads where fast changes
in tire traction can cause excessive
wheel slip.

200 Driving and Operating
.If ACC is holding the vehicle at a stop and
there is another vehicle directly ahead,
pressing RES+ will increase the set speed.
.Pressing RES+ when there is no longer a
vehicle ahead or the vehicle ahead is
pulling away and the brake is not applied
will cause the ACC to resume.
When it is determined that there is no
vehicle ahead or the vehicle ahead is beyond
the selected following gap, then the vehicle
speed will increase to the set speed.
The speedometer reading can be displayed
in either English or metric units. See
Instrument Cluster 094. The increment
value used depends on the units displayed.
Reducing Speed While ACC is at a Set Speed
If ACC is already activated, do one of the
following:
.Use the brake to get to the desired lower
speed. Release the brake and press SET– .
The vehicle will now cruise at the lower
speed.
.Press and hold SET– until the desired
lower speed is reached, then release it.
.To decrease speed in smaller increments,
press SET− to the first detent. For each
press, the vehicle goes about 1 km/h
(1 mph) slower.
.To decrease speed in larger increments,
press SET− to the second detent. For each
press, the vehicle speed decreases to the
next 5 km/h (5 mph) mark on the
speedometer.
The set speed can also be decreased while
the vehicle is stopped.
.If stopped with the brake applied, press
or hold SET− until the desired set speed is
displayed.
Selecting the Follow Distance Gap
When a slower moving vehicle is detected
ahead within the selected following gap,
ACC will adjust the vehicle's speed and
attempt to maintain the follow distance gap
selected.
Press
[on the steering wheel to adjust
the following gap. Each press cycles the gap
button through three settings: Far, Medium,
or Near.
When pressed, the current gap setting
displays briefly on the instrument cluster
and HUD, if equipped. The gap setting will
be maintained until it is changed.

Near Gap Setting
If equipped, and a trailer is electrically
connected, the gap setting display will be as
follows:
Far Gap Setting with Trailer
Medium Gap Setting with Trailer
Near Gap Setting with Trailer
Since each gap setting corresponds to a
following time (Far, Medium, or Near), the
following distance will vary based on vehicle
speed. The faster the vehicle speed, the
further back your vehicle will follow a
vehicle detected ahead. Consider traffic and
weather conditions when selecting the following gap. The range of selectable gaps
may not be appropriate for all drivers and
driving conditions.
Changing the gap setting automatically
changes the alert timing sensitivity (Far,
Medium, or Near) for the Forward Collision
Alert (FCA) feature. See
Forward Collision
Alert (FCA) System 0233.

Press and hold
[on the steering wheel
when vehicle is moving to temporarily
increase the gap with the vehicle ahead to
allow for merging traffic.
Press and hold
[when stopped to cancel
ACC from resuming automatically (if the
stop is brief) and to remain stationary. This
can be used to allow traffic to merge
between you and the vehicle ahead. Press
RES+ or the accelerator pedal to
resume ACC.
Following distance gap will return to the
original selection after hold.

limited.
.The Driver Attention System (DAS) does
not detect that the driver's head and eyes
are directed toward the road.
.ACC is canceled.
.The vehicle is on a tight curve, or the
lanes are too wide, or the vehicle goes
into a curve too fast.
.The road speed limit of the Super
Cruise-compatible, non-divided road is
below 72 km/h (45 mph).
.The Super Cruise-compatible road ends.
.The vehicle is approaching an intersection
controlled by a traffic light, stop sign,
or other traffic control device.
.A Super Cruise system fault occurs.
.Super Cruise is unable to complete the
lane change maneuver.
.Super Cruise detects the outside air
temperature is very cold.
The steering wheel light bar may flash
amber if the system anticipates certain
conditions that may require the driver to

Attention to the Road
{Warning
Super Cruise is a driver assistance system
and cannot accurately detect or predict
all situations. Super Cruise is not a crash
avoidance system. To prevent serious
injury or death, you must supervise the
driving task and monitor the road
conditions. You may need to respond to
traffic events by steering, braking,
or accelerating. SeeDefensive Driving
0 164. Super Cruise also cannot
determine whether you are awake,
asleep, impaired, or properly focused on
safe driving. The vehicle could crash into
other vehicles, drive out of the lane,
or drive off the road. Complete attention
is always required while driving, even
while using Super Cruise. Be prepared to
take over steering or apply the brakes at
any time.
{Warning
To prevent serious injury or death, be
alert and pay special attention when
passing highway exits, entrances, and
crossings with Super Cruise, and be ready
to take control of the vehicle when
necessary. Changes in lane markings
around exits and entrances can
momentarily cause Super Cruise to not
detect the correct lane. If this occurs,
Super Cruise may attempt steering inputs
to bring the vehicle back into the correct
lane and, in rare circumstances, could
over-correct and cause the vehicle to
momentarily cross into a lane next to
your vehicle unless you manually steer to
maintain your lane position. The Driver Attention System (DAS) on the
steering column continually monitors driver
head and eye position to estimate driver
attention to the road. The camera does not
record or share pictures, audio, or video.
Sunglasses, hats, or other types of clothing
that change the shape of the head may
interfere with camera performance. To
improve camera performance, raise or lower
the steering wheel, or change the seat
position.
