Cruise Control - Cadillac XT4 2023 Owner's Manual

200 Driving and Operating
affected vehicle systems are dependent on
vehicle trim level, region, and optional
features.
If the vehicle is in Tour or AWD Mode, it
will stay in that mode through future
ignition cycles. If the vehicle is in any other
mode, it will return to Tour Mode when the
vehicle is restarted. When a mode is
selected, an indicator will illuminate in the
instrument cluster and remain illuminated.
Driver Mode Control Switch
To activate each mode, press the MODE
button on the centre console.
Tour Mode : Use for normal city and
motorway driving to provide a smooth ride.
This setting provides a balance between
comfort and handling. This is the standard/
default mode. There is no persistent
indicator in the instrument cluster for
this mode.
AWD Mode : AWD Mode provides torque to
all four wheels. Select AWD to improve
traction and control on slippery road
surfaces, such as gravel, sand, wet
pavement, snow, and ice. For more
information on AWD Mode, see All-Wheel
Drive 0 195.
Sport Mode : Use where road conditions or
personal preference demand a more
controlled response. Sport Mode improves
vehicle handling and acceleration on dry
pavement. When active, Sport Mode
modifies steering effort, transmission
shifting, and AWD torque, if equipped.
The Performance Algorithm Liftfoot (PAL)
feature is enabled in Sport Mode. PAL allows
the transmission to hold the current gear
after the quick release of a heavily applied
accelerator pedal. This provides greater
engine braking and enhanced vehicle control.
When PAL is activated, there may be an
additional gear symbol that is shown in the
instrument cluster display. See Performance
Shifting Light 0 100.
Off-Road Mode : Use this mode for off-road
recreational driving. When active, Off Road
Mode should be used to improve driving at
moderate speeds on grass, gravel, dirt,
unpaved roads, or snow-covered roads. The
accelerator pedal is tuned for off-road use.
This mode modifies pedal mapping, AWD,
ESC, and TCS Performance.
Snow/Ice Mode : Snow/Ice Mode improves
vehicle acceleration on snow and ice covered
roads. When active, Snow/Ice Mode will
adjust acceleration to optimise traction on
slippery surfaces. This can compromise the
acceleration on dry asphalt. This feature is
not intended for use when the vehicle is
stuck in sand, mud, ice, snow, or gravel.
If the vehicle becomes stuck, see If the
Vehicle Is Stuck 0 176.

Warning
Cruise control can be dangerous where
you cannot drive safely at a steady
speed. Do not use cruise control on
