Cadillac Escalade 2021 Manual page 274

The set speed can also be increased
while the vehicle is stopped.
If stopped with the brake applied,
press RES+ until the desired set
speed is displayed.
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.
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 the vehicle 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.
DRIVING AND OPERATING
With ACC active, press
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.
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 0 305.
