To use Super Cruise, Adaptive Cruise
1. Make sure Adaptive Cruise Control is enabled. You will see one of two icons: a white illuminated Adaptive Cruise Control icon, or a green illuminated icon with the set speed limit. If you don’t see either of these, press the Adaptive Cruise Control button on your steering wheel.
2. When Super Cruise detects you are on a compatible highway, paying attention and all other driving conditions necessary for the feature to function are met (e.g., lane markings visible, GPS available, no system faults), the Super Cruise symbol illuminates in white on the instrument cluster.
a. On some models, you will have to centre your vehicle in the lane before seeing the Super Cruise symbol appear.
3. When it is safe to do so, press the Super Cruise button on the steering wheel to engage Super Cruise.
a. On some vehicles, when all other driving conditions are met but you are not centred in your lane, the Super Cruise symbol will light up blue until you are centred in your lane.
4. When the symbol and the steering wheel light bar illuminate in green, you may remove your hands from the steering wheel. You should not remove your hands from the steering wheel unless the light bar is green, which lets you know Super Cruise is steering the vehicle.
5. If an Adaptive Cruise Control speed was not previously set, Super Cruise will set your current speed as the cruise speed.
6. On some vehicles, when Super Cruise is turned on, it will activate the Enhanced Automatic Emergency
To turn Super Cruise off, press the Super Cruise button again or firmly take control of steering and press your brake pedal. Super Cruise can also be turned off by pressing the Adaptive Cruise Control ON/OFF or CANCEL button, or pulling the Regen On Demand paddle toward you on an EV.
When Super Cruise is off, the light bar on your steering wheel will be off and the Super Cruise symbol on your Driver Information Centre will also be off. You must steer, brake and accelerate.
When Super Cruise is on, the steering wheel light bar and Super Cruise symbol will indicate the system status. The symbol looks like a steering wheel. Here is what the lights on the bar and symbol mean:
Not available on Bolt EUV.
On properly equipped vehicles Super Cruise can steer to perform a single lane change under certain
Remember, you must continue to focus on the highway and traffic prior to and during the lane change manoeuvre.
1. Verify the lane next to your vehicle is clear and conditions are safe to make a lane change.
2. When Super Cruise is engaged, move the turn signal in the direction of the lane you’d like to change to. You do not need to fully latch the turn signal to activate Lane Change On Demand.
3. Super Cruise will then begin searching for an acceptable opening in the lane, while giving other drivers enough time to see your turn signal. You’ll see a message in your Driver Information Centre (DIC) letting you know Super Cruise is looking for an opening.
Note: Super Cruise will not make a lane change if Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert detects a vehicle in the direction of your desired lane change (when the icon in your outside rearview mirror is lit).
4. When Super Cruise determines the lane is open, it will begin to enter the lane. You’ll see a DIC message that says “Auto Lane Change: Changing Lanes.”
5. When Lane Change On Demand is finished changing lanes, you’ll see a message in your DIC that says the lane change is complete. If you fully latched the turn signal to begin Lane Change On Demand, you must unlatch it when the lane change is finished to turn off the turn signal.
Early in a Lane Change On Demand manoeuvre, you can cancel it by moving the turn signal stalk away from the direction of the lane change. When you do this, your vehicle will return to its original lane and the Super Cruise symbol will remain green. At any time during the manoeuvre, you can cancel Lane Change On Demand by manually steering. The Super Cruise symbol will turn blue when you do this and the manoeuvre will be cancelled. Once your vehicle is centred in the lane, the Super Cruise symbol will transition back to green.
If Super Cruise detects you aren’t paying attention, if it cannot detect lane lines or detects a vehicle entering the lane after you have transitioned far enough out of the previous lane, you will see a DIC message indicating Lane Change On Demand has been cancelled. The Super Cruise symbol will then turn red and you will need to immediately retake control of the vehicle.
Important information about lane change availability:
Not available on Bolt EUV.
On properly equipped vehicles, if the Automatic Lane Change capability is enabled in the vehicle’s Settings menu, Super Cruise may initiate a lane change under the following conditions:
A message appears on the DIC during the lane change to provide more information on the status of the lane change. To cancel a Super Cruise lane change, move the turn signal lever or manually take over the steering wheel at any time.
You can enable or disable lane changes by going to Settings > Vehicle Personalization > Super Cruise Lane Change.
Not available on Bolt EUV.
If your vehicle is properly equipped, Super Cruise can recognize when you’re pulling a trailer and automatically adjust the gap to the next vehicle ahead for extra stopping distance. Lane change functionality is temporarily disabled and will not be available when you’re trailering with Super Cruise.
No. Super Cruise cannot steer to avoid any objects (including vehicles, animals, pedestrians, bicyclists, potholes, debris, construction barriers or cones). It is not a crash avoidance system. It is designed to help you stay in a single lane and works with Adaptive Cruise
