Automatic Emergency; Braking (Aeb) - GMC LYRIQ 2023 Owner's Manual

Automatic Emergency

Braking (AEB)

The AEB system may help
avoid or reduce the harm
caused by front-end crashes.
AEB also includes Intelligent
Brake Assist (IBA). When the
system detects a vehicle
ahead in your path that is
traveling in the same direction
that you may be about to
crash into, it can provide a
boost to braking or
automatically brake the
vehicle. This can help avoid or
lessen the severity of crashes
when driving in a forward gear.
Depending on the situation,
the vehicle may automatically
brake moderately or hard. This
automatic emergency braking
can only occur if a vehicle is
detected. This is shown by the
FCA vehicle ahead indicator
being lit. See Forward Collision
Alert (FCA) System 0 270.
The system works when
driving in a forward gear
above 4km/h (2 mph). It can
detect vehicles up to
approximately 60 m (197 ft).
Warning
AEB is an emergency crash
preparation feature and is
not designed to avoid
crashes. Do not rely on AEB
to brake the vehicle. AEB will
not brake outside of its
operating speed range and
only responds to detected
vehicles.
AEB may not:
Detect a vehicle ahead on
winding or hilly roads.
Detect all vehicles,
especially vehicles with a
trailer, tractors, muddy
vehicles, etc.
Detect a vehicle when
weather limits visibility,
such as in fog, rain,
or snow.

Driving and Operating
Warning (Continued)
Detect a vehicle ahead if it
is partially blocked by
pedestrians or other
objects.
Complete attention is
always required while
driving, and you should be
ready to take action and
apply the brakes and/or
steer the vehicle to avoid
crashes.
AEB may slow the vehicle to a
complete stop to try to avoid a
potential crash. If this
happens, AEB may engage the
Electric Parking Brake (EPB)
to hold the vehicle at a stop.
Release the EPB or firmly
press the accelerator pedal.
Warning
AEB may automatically
brake the vehicle suddenly in
situations where it is
unexpected and undesired.
