such that obstructions are visible in the
view (spare tire, bike/cargo racks, etc.).
Calibration should be attempted with
obstruction temporarily removed.
Shadows resulting from driving toward
the sun may be perceived as obstructions.
Attempt to calibrate driving in an
alternate direction if possible.
.The entered trailer profile dimensions are
inaccurate. Measurements are expected to
be made to the nearest centimeter or
inch. Enter accurate measurements and
reattempt calibration.
Distortion may be observed in a rear trailer
camera view if:
.The accessory trailer camera is mounted,
angled or rotated outside of the defined

Park Assist
With Front and Rear Park Assist, as the
vehicle moves at speeds of less than 8 km/h
(5 mph) the sensors on the bumpers may
detect objects up to 1.2 m (4 ft) in front and
1.8 m (6 ft) behind the vehicle within a zone
25 cm (10 in) high off the ground and below
bumper level. These detection distances may
be shorter during warmer or humid weather.
Blocked sensors will not detect objects and
can also cause false detections. Keep the
sensors clean of mud, dirt, snow, ice, and
slush; and clean sensors after a car wash in
freezing temperatures.
{Warning
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 available at speeds
greater than 8 km/h (5 mph). To prevent
injury, death, or vehicle damage, even
with Park Assist, always check the area
around the vehicle and check all mirrors
before moving forward or backing.
The instrument cluster may have a Park
Assist display with bars that show“distance
to object” and object location information
for the Front and Rear Park Assist system.
As the object gets closer, more bars light up
and the bars change color from yellow to
amber to red.
When an object is first detected in the rear,
one beep will be heard from the rear,
or both sides of the Safety Alert Seat will
pulse two times. When an object is very
close —<0.4 m (1.5 ft) in the vehicle rear or
<0.3 m (1 ft) in the vehicle front —a
continuous beep will sound from the rear or
front depending on object location, or both
sides of the Safety Alert Seat will pulse five
times. Beeps for FPA are higher pitched than
for RPA.

Automatic Parking Assist (APA)
Enhanced Automatic Parking Assist (APA)
If equipped, under certain conditions APA
with Braking can use sensors based on sonar
technology along the vehicle’s front, rear
and sides to detect a parking spot, and
automatically park or unpark the vehicle
with some driver assistance. 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 or additional
acceleration, as needed. A display and
audible 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
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
appropriate for parking a vehicle. APA
may not respond to changes in the
parking space, such as movement of an
adjacent vehicle, or a person or object

Reverse Automatic Braking (RAB)
Backing Warning and Reverse Automatic
Braking (RAB)
Vehicles with Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
have the Backing Warning System and
Reverse Automatic Braking (RAB) system.
When in R (Reverse), Backing Warning alerts
of rear objects at vehicle speeds greater
than 8 km/h (5 mph), and RAB may
automatically brake hard at speeds between
1-32 km/h (0.5-20 mph).
The Backing Warning System will beep once
from the rear when an object is first
detected, or pulse twice on both sides of the
Safety Alert Seat. When the system detects
a potential crash, beeps will be heard from
the rear, or five pulses will be felt on both
sides of the Safety Alert Seat. There may
also be a brief, sharp application of the
brakes.
{Warning
The Backing Warning System only
operates at speeds greater than 8 km/h
(5 mph). It does not detect children,
pedestrians, bicyclists, animals, or objects
below the bumper or that are too close
or too far from the vehicle. In some
situations, such as at higher backing
speeds, there may not be enough time
for the short, sharp application of the
vehicle brake system to occur. To prevent
injury, death, or vehicle damage, even
with the Backing Warning System, always
check the area around the vehicle and
check all mirrors before backing.

Chevrolet Silverado EV Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-
16702912) - 2024 - CRC - 1/17/23
Driving and Operating 259
When the vehicle is in R (Reverse), if the
system detects the vehicle is backing too
fast to avoid a crash with a detected object
behind your vehicle in your path, it may
automatically brake hard to a stop to help
avoid or reduce the harm caused by a
backing crash.
{Warning
RAB may not avoid many types of
backing crashes. Do not wait for the
automatic braking to apply. This system
is not designed to replace driver braking
and only works in R (Reverse) when an
object is detected directly behind the
vehicle. It may not brake or stop in time
to avoid a crash. It will not brake for
objects when the vehicle is moving at
very low speeds. It does not detect
children, pedestrians, bicyclists, animals,
or objects below the bumper or that are
too close or too far from the vehicle. To
prevent injury, death, or vehicle damage,
even with RAB, always check the area
around the vehicle before and while
backing.Pressing the brake pedal after the vehicle
comes to a stop will release RAB. If the
brake pedal is not pressed soon after the
stop, the Electric Parking Brake (EPB) may be
set. When it is safe, press the accelerator
pedal firmly at any time to override RAB.
{Warning
There may be instances where
unexpected or undesired automatic
braking occurs. If this happens, either
press the brake pedal or firmly press the
accelerator pedal to release the brakes
from the RAB system. Before releasing
the brakes, check the RVC and check the
area around the vehicle to make sure it is
safe to proceed.
Unexpected braking events are possible with
a static installed accessory, such as a bike
rack or hitch-mounted cargo carrier.
Rear Pedestrian Alert
Under certain conditions, this feature can
provide alerts for a pedestrian within the
system’s range directly behind the vehicle.
This feature only works in R (Reverse) below
12 km/h (8 mph), and detects pedestrians up
to 8 m (26 ft) away during daytime driving.
During nighttime driving, feature
performance is very limited.
Rear Pedestrian Alert Indicator
When a pedestrian is detected within the
system’s range directly behind the vehicle,
this symbol flashes amber on the
infotainment display, along with two beeps
from the rear and/or two pulses from both
sides of the driver seat. When a pedestrian
is detected close to the vehicle, the symbol
flashes red on the infotainment display,
along with seven beeps from the rear, or if
equipped, seven pulses from both sides of
the driver seat.
