Cadillac 2010 DTS - Manual (Page 186)

Alerting the Driver
The ACC alert symbol is
located on the display at
the top of the instrument
panel to the right of
the driver.
The alert symbol flashes and a warning beep sounds
when driver action may be required. If ACC is engaged,
the alert symbol will flash when:
• ACC cannot apply sufficient braking because you
are approaching a vehicle too rapidly.
• The vehicle speed drops below about 32 km/h
(20 mph).
• A temporary condition prohibits ACC from operating.
See DIC Warnings and Messages on page 4-67 for
more information.
• A malfunction is detected in the system. See DIC
Warnings and Messages on page 4-67 for more
information.
See Defensive Driving on page 5-2.
{ WARNING:
Adaptive Cruise Control has only limited braking
ability to slow your vehicle. In some cases,
Adaptive Cruise Control may not have time to slow
your vehicle enough to avoid a collision. Be ready
to take action and apply the brakes yourself. See
Defensive Driving on page 5-2.
Approaching and Following a Vehicle
The vehicle ahead symbol
is located on the top of the
instrument panel to the
right of the driver.

is detected in your path.
