250 Driving and Operating
path, ACC works like regular cruise control.
ACC uses a windshield mounted front
camera sensor.
If equipped with Super Cruise, ACC uses a
radar sensor(s) as well to detect other
vehicles. See Radio Frequency Statement
0 439.
If a vehicle is detected in your path, ACC can
apply acceleration or limited, moderate
braking to maintain the selected following
gap. To disengage ACC, apply the brake.
If ACC is controlling the vehicle speed when
the Traction Control System (TCS) or
StabiliTrak/Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system activates, ACC may automatically
disengage. See Traction Control/Electronic
Stability Control 0 240. When road
conditions allow ACC to be safely used, ACC
can be turned back on. Disabling the TCS or
StabiliTrak/ESC system will disengage and
prevent engagement of ACC.
ACC can reduce the need for you to
frequently brake and accelerate, especially
when used on expressways, freeways, and
interstate highways. When used on other
roads, you may need to take over the
control of braking or acceleration more
often.
Warning
ACC has limited braking ability and may
not have time to slow the vehicle down
enough to avoid a collision with another
vehicle you are following. This can occur
when vehicles suddenly slow or stop
ahead, or enter your lane. Also see
Alerting the Driver later in this section.
Complete attention is always required
while driving and you should be ready to
take action and apply the brakes. See
Defensive Driving 0 198.
Warning
ACC will not detect or brake for children,
pedestrians, animals, or other objects.
Do not use ACC when:
On winding and hilly roads or when
the sensors are blocked by snow, ice,
or dirt. The system may not detect a
vehicle ahead. Keep the entire front of
the vehicle clean.
Visibility is poor due to rain, snow,
fog, dirt, insect residue, or dust; when
other foreign objects obscure the
Warning (Continued)
camera and/or radar; or when the
vehicle in front or oncoming traffic
causes additional environmental
obstructions, such as road spray. ACC
performance is limited under these
conditions.
On slippery roads where fast changes
in tire traction can cause excessive
wheel slip.
With extremely heavy cargo loaded in
the cargo area or rear seat, or when
the vehicle is loaded in excess of load
limits. See Vehicle Load Limits 0 207.
