System Description

System	RPO	Abbreviation	Description
Super Cruise	UKL	-	Super Cruise is a driver assistance feature that enhances Adaptive Cruise Control by allowing hands-free driving under compatible highway driving conditions while helping prompt the driver to pay close attention to the road so they are ready to take control. The Active Safety Control Module 1 is the primary control module for Super Cruise operation, while Active Safety Control Module 2 is a redundant control module for backup operation. The Super Cruise driver assistance feature uses Global Positioning System (GPS) sensing, GPS-enhanced data, a high-precision map and network of cameras to maintain automatic control of vehicle steering on compatible highways. Super Cruise is available only on compatible highways that are separated from opposing traffic. The GPS uses real-time corrections and map data to determine the vehicle's location while the Frontview Camera - Windshield detects the marked lanes on the road to help the vehicle automatically steer and maintain lane position. Map data is provided by the Digital Map Module. The system works with Adaptive Cruise Control - Advanced, which is designed to detect vehicles traveling in the same direction in its path and accelerate or brake the vehicle to maintain a driver-selected following gap time from a vehicle ahead, even in stop-and-go traffic conditions. The Long Range Radar Sensor Module is used to detect other vehicles. When engaged, Super Cruise utilizes a Driver Attention System. It provides feedback on system status while tracking the driver's head position and using alerts that prompt the driver to pay close attention to the road and steer manually when needed. The Driver Attention System uses the Driver Monitoring System Control Module and Driver Monitoring System Camera to monitor the driver.
Adaptive Cruise Control - Advanced	KSG with UGN	ACC	Adaptive Cruise Control - Advanced uses the Active Safety Control Module, Frontview Camera - Windshield, and Long Range Radar Sensor Module that look directly ahead to monitor vehicles that a driver is following. This feature helps drivers follow a vehicle ahead at the following gap they select (Far, Medium, or Near) while they steer. This helps reduce the driver's need to frequently brake and accelerate. If the system does not detect a vehicle ahead, Adaptive Cruise Control - Advanced works just like regular cruise control and maintains a selected cruise speed. When the system detects a vehicle ahead in the driving lane, the VEHICLE AHEAD icon will appear in green. When the vehicle detected ahead is within the selected following gap setting, Adaptive Cruise Control - Advanced can automatically slow the vehicle down and adjust vehicle speed to follow the vehicle ahead at the selected following gap. Just like regular Cruise Control, Adaptive Cruise Control - Advanced uses the cruise control ON/OFF, CANCEL, SET and RESUME buttons on the steering wheel.
Adaptive Cruise Control - Camera	KSG without UGN	ACC	Adaptive Cruise Control - Camera uses the Frontview Camera - Windshield that looks directly ahead to monitor vehicles that a driver is following. This feature helps drivers follow a vehicle ahead at the following gap they select (Far, Medium, or Near) while they steer. This helps reduce the driver's need to frequently brake and accelerate. If the system does not detect a vehicle ahead, Adaptive Cruise Control - Camera works just like regular cruise control and maintains a selected cruise speed. When the system detects a vehicle ahead in the driving lane, the VEHICLE AHEAD icon will appear in green. When the vehicle detected ahead is within the selected following gap setting, Adaptive Cruise Control - Camera can automatically slow the vehicle down and adjust vehicle speed to follow the vehicle ahead at the selected following gap. Just like regular Cruise Control, Adaptive Cruise Control - Camera uses the cruise control ON/OFF, CANCEL, SET and RESUME buttons on the steering wheel.
