Rear Pedestrian Alert - GMC HUMMER EV 2022 Owner's Manual

Warning
RAB may not avoid many types of
backing crashes. Do not wait for the
automatic braking to apply. This system
is not designed to replace driver braking
and only works in R (Reverse) when an
object is detected directly behind the
vehicle. It may not brake or stop in time
to avoid a crash. It will not brake for
objects when the vehicle is moving at
very low speeds. It does not detect
children, pedestrians, bicyclists, animals,
or objects below the bumper or that are
too close or too far from the vehicle. To
prevent injury, death, or vehicle damage,
even with RAB, always check the area
around the vehicle before and while
backing.
Pressing the brake pedal after the vehicle
comes to a stop will release RAB. If the
brake pedal is not pressed soon after the
stop, the Electric Parking Brake (EPB) may be
set. When it is safe, press the accelerator
pedal firmly at any time to override RAB.
Warning
There may be instances where
unexpected or undesired automatic
braking occurs. If this happens, either
press the brake pedal or firmly press the
accelerator pedal to release the brakes
from the RAB system. Before releasing
the brakes, check the RVC and check the
area around the vehicle to make sure it is
safe to proceed.

Rear Pedestrian Alert

Under certain conditions, this feature can
provide alerts for a pedestrian within the
system s range directly behind the vehicle.
This feature only works in R (Reverse) below
12 km/h (8 mph), and detects pedestrians up
to 8 m (26 ft) away during daytime driving.
During nighttime driving, feature
performance is very limited.
Rear Pedestrian Alert Indicator
Driving and Operating
When a pedestrian is detected within the
system s range directly behind the vehicle,
this symbol flashes amber on the
infotainment display, along with two beeps
from the rear and/or two pulses from both
sides of the driver seat. When a pedestrian
is detected close to the vehicle, the symbol
flashes red on the infotainment display,
along with seven beeps from the rear, or if
equipped, seven pulses from both sides of
the driver seat.
Warning
Rear Pedestrian Alert does not
automatically brake the vehicle. It also
does not provide an alert unless it
detects a pedestrian, and it may not
detect all pedestrians if:
The pedestrian is not directly behind
the vehicle, fully visible to the Rear
Vision Camera (RVC), or standing
upright.
The pedestrian is part of a group.
The pedestrian is a child.
Visibility is poor, including nighttime
conditions, fog, rain, or snow.
