{Warning
The camera(s) do not display children,
pedestrians, bicyclists, crossing traffic,
animals, or any other object outside of
the cameras’field of view, below the
bumper, or under the vehicle. Shown
distances may be different from actual
distances. Do not drive or park the
vehicle using only these camera(s).
Always check behind and around the
vehicle before driving. Failure to use
proper care may result in injury, death,
or vehicle damage.
Park Assist
If equipped, the Rear Park Assist (RPA)
system assists the driver with parking and
avoiding objects while in R (Reverse). RPA
operates at speeds less than 8 km/h (5 mph).
The sensors on the rear bumper detect
objects up to 1.7 m (5.5 ft) behind the
vehicle, and at least 20 cm (8 in) off the
ground. The distance objects can be detected
may be less during warmer or humid
weather.
{Warning
The Park Assist system does not detect
children, pedestrians, bicyclists, animals,
or objects 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 backing.
How the System Works
RPA comes on automatically when the shift
lever is moved into R (Reverse).
An obstacle is indicated by audible beeps.
The interval between the beeps becomes
shorter as the vehicle gets closer to the
obstacle. When the distance is less than
50 cm (20 in) the beeping is a
continuous tone.
Turning the System On and Off
The RPA system can be turned on and off
using the infotainment system controls. See
Vehicle Personalization 088.
When the System Does Not Seem to
Work Properly
This light may come on for the following
reasons:
.The sensors are not clean. Keep the
vehicle's rear bumper free of mud, dirt,
snow, ice, and slush. For cleaning
instructions, see Exterior Care0217.
.The sensors are 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 light may not clear
until the frost or ice has melted.
.An object was hanging out of the liftgate
during the last drive cycle. Once the
object is removed, RPA will return to
normal operation.
.The bumper is damaged. Take the vehicle
to your dealer to repair the system.

position after rotating the vehicle’s tires or
replacing one or more of the TPMS sensors.
Also, the TPMS sensor matching process
should be performed after replacing a spare
tire with a road tire containing the TPMS
sensor. The malfunction light and the DIC
message, if equipped, should go off at the
next ignition cycle. The sensors are matched
to the tire/wheel positions, using a TPMS
relearn tool, in the following order: driver
side front tire, passenger side front tire,
passenger side rear tire, and driver side rear.
See your dealer for service or to purchase a
relearn tool. A TPMS relearn tool can also be
purchased. See Tire Pressure Monitor Sensor
Activation Tool at
www.gmtoolsandequipment.com or call
1-800-GM TOOLS (1-800-468-6657).
There are two minutes to match the first
tire/wheel position, and five minutes overall
to match all four tire/wheel positions. If it
takes longer, the matching process stops
and must be restarted.
The TPMS sensor matching process is:1. Set the parking brake. 2. Turn the ignition on without starting the
vehicle or place the vehicle in Service
Mode. See Ignition Positions (Keyless
Access) 0136 or
Ignition Positions (Key Access) 0134.
3. Use MENU to select the Vehicle Information Menu (Menu 2) in the Driver
Information Center (DIC).
4. Use the thumbwheel (or up and down arrows) to scroll to the Tire Pressure
Learn Menu Item (Base DIC) or the Tire
Pressure Menu Item screen (Uplevel DIC).
5. Press and hold SET/CLR to begin the sensor matching process.
A message requesting acceptance of the
process may display.
6. If requested, press SET/CLR again to confirm the selection.
The horn sounds twice to signal the
receiver is in relearn mode and the TIRE
LEARN or TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message
displays on the DIC screen.
7. Start with the driver side front tire.
8. Place the relearn tool against the tire sidewall, near the valve stem. Then press
the button to activate the TPMS sensor. A horn chirp confirms that the sensor
identification code has been matched to
this tire and wheel position.
9. Proceed to the passenger side front tire, and repeat the procedure in Step 8.
10. Proceed to the passenger side rear tire, and repeat the procedure in Step 8.
11. Proceed to the driver side rear tire, and repeat the procedure in Step 8. The horn
sounds two times to indicate the sensor
identification code has been matched to
the driver side rear tire, and the TPMS
sensor matching process is no longer
active. The TIRE LEARN or TIRE LEARNING
ACTIVE message on the DIC display
screen goes off.
12. Turn the vehicle off.
13. Set all four tires to the recommended air pressure level as indicated on the Tire
and Loading Information label.
Tire Inspection
We recommend that the tires, including
the spare tire, if the vehicle has one, be
inspected for signs of wear or damage
at least once a month.
