Cadillac 2010 Automobile User Manual


 
Once ACC is set, it may immediately apply the brakes if
it detects a vehicle ahead is too close or moving slower
than your vehicle.
The on symbol is located on the display at the top of the
instrument panel to the right of the driver. When the on
symbol is lit on the display, it indicates that ACC is
active.
A message on the DIC will also display when ACC is
set. See DIC Warnings and Messages on page 466.
Keep in mind speed limits, surrounding traffic speeds,
and weather conditions when adjusting your set speed.
If the vehicle is in ACC when the traction control system
begins to limit wheel spin, the ACC will automatically
disengage. See Traction Control System (TCS)
on
page 56
and StabiliTrak
®
System
on page 55
.
When road conditions allow you to safely use it again,
the ACC can be turned back on.
Increasing Set Speed While Using ACC
There are two ways to increase the set speed:
.
Use the accelerator to get to the higher speed.
Press the SET button and then release the button
and the accelerator pedal. The vehicle will now
cruise at the higher speed.
.
Press the +RES button. Hold it there until the
desired set speed is displayed on the Driver
Information Center (DIC), then release the switch.
To increase the set speed in very small amounts,
move the switch briefly to +RES. Each time this is
done, the set speed increases by 1 km/h (1 mph).
Your vehicle will not reach the set speed until the
system determines there is not a vehicle in front of you.
At that point, your vehicle speed will increase to the set
speed.
