Advanced Driver Assistance Systems - GMC Sierra 2500 HD 2024 Owner's Manual

252 Driving and Operating
Cleaning the Sensing System
The camera sensor on the windshield behind
the rearview mirror can become blocked by
snow, ice, dirt, mud, or debris. This area
needs to be cleaned for ACC to operate
properly.
The vehicle headlamps may need to be
cleaned due to dirt, snow, or ice. Objects
that are not illuminated correctly may be
difficult to detect.
If ACC will not operate, regular cruise control
may be available. See Switching Between
ACC and Regular Cruise Control previously
in this section. Always consider driving
conditions before using either cruise control
system.
For cleaning instructions, see Washing the
Vehicle under Exterior Care 0 383.
Advanced Driver Assistance
Systems
This vehicle may have features that work
together to help avoid crashes or reduce
crash damage while driving, backing, and
parking. Read this entire section before
using these systems.
Warning
Do not rely on the Driver Assistance
Systems. These systems do not replace
the need for paying attention and driving
safely. You may not hear or feel alerts or
warnings provided by these systems.
Failure to use proper care when driving
may result in injury, death, or vehicle
damage. See Defensive Driving 0 200.
Under many conditions, these systems
will not:
Detect children, pedestrians, bicyclists,
or animals.
Detect vehicles or objects outside the
area monitored by the system.
Work at all driving speeds.
Warn you or provide you with enough
time to avoid a crash.
Work under poor visibility or bad
weather conditions.
Work if the detection sensor is not
cleaned or is covered by ice, snow,
mud, or dirt.
Warning (Continued)
Work if the detection sensor is
covered up, such as with a sticker,
magnet, or metal plate.
Work if the area surrounding the
detection sensor is damaged or not
properly repaired.
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.
Audible or Safety Alert Seat
Some driver assistance features alert the
driver of obstacles by beeping. To view
available settings from the infotainment
screen, touch Settings > Vehicle > Comfort
and Convenience.
If equipped with the Safety Alert Seat, the
driver seat cushion may provide a vibrating
pulse alert instead of beeping. To view
available settings from the infotainment
screen, touch Settings > Vehicle >
