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.

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.

Troubleshooting
The Trailer Camera calibration may take
longer than expected or not calibrate if:
.The vehicle is driven too fast during
calibration. Maintain speeds below
50 km/h (31 mph).
.The vehicle is not driven straight during
calibration. Steering should be maintained
as straight as possible. Excessive Steering
during calibration may extend
calibration time.
.The calibration is attempted in low light.
Calibration should be attempted when
there is enough light.
.The calibration is attempted during
adverse weather conditions. Calibration
during conditions such as snow or heavy
rain should be avoided.
.The road surface is not ideal for
calibration. Calibration should be
attempted on an alternate road surface.
.The accessory trailer cameras are
swapped at the hitch connector. Ensure
that the camera mounted to the rear of
the trailer is connected to the rear trailer
camera input.
.The accessory trailer camera is mounted,
angled, or rotated outside of the defined
mounting location (see camera
installation instructions).
.The vehicle or accessory trailer camera is
obstructed by dirt or debris. Check
cameras and clean as needed.
.The accessory trailer camera is mounted
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
mounting location. See your dealer.
.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.

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
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
infotainment screen for the system to begin
searching for a parking space while driving
forward at no greater than
30 km/h (18 mph). APA searches for parking
spaces, to the left or right of the vehicle, up
to the sensors’ ranges 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 choose or change
the parking mode, make a selection on the
infotainment display.
