Cadillac XT4 Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-
13527548) - 2020 - CRC - 4/10/19
DRIVING AND OPERATING 219
FPB can be set to Off, Alert, or Alert
and Brake through vehicle
personalization. See “Collision/
Detection Systems” under Vehicle
Personalization 0 130.
Detecting the Pedestrian Ahead
FPB alerts and automatic braking will
not occur unless the FPB system
detects a pedestrian. When a nearby
pedestrian is detected in front of the
vehicle, the pedestrian ahead indicator
will display amber.
Front Pedestrian Alert
With Head-Up Display
Without Head-Up Display
When the vehicle approaches a
pedestrian ahead too rapidly, the red
FPB alert display will flash on the
windshield. Eight rapid high-pitched
beeps will sound from the front,
or both sides of the Safety Alert Seat
will pulse five times. When this
Pedestrian Alert occurs, the brake
system may prepare for driver braking
to occur more rapidly which can cause
a brief, mild deceleration. Continue to
apply the brake pedal as needed.
Cruise control may be disengaged
when the Front Pedestrian Alert
occurs.
Automatic Braking
If FPB detects it is about to crash into
a pedestrian ahead, and the brakes
have not been applied, FPB may
automatically brake moderately or
brake hard. This can help to avoid
some ver y low speed pedestrian
crashes or reduce pedestrian injury.
FPB can automatically brake to
detected pedestrians between 8 km/h
(5 mph) and 80 km/h (50 mph).
Automatic braking levels may be
reduced under certain conditions,
such as higher speeds.
If this happens, Automatic Braking
may engage the Electric Parking Brake
(EPB) to hold the vehicle at a stop.
Release the EPB. A firm press of the
accelerator pedal will also release
Automatic Braking and the EPB.
{
Warning
FPB may alert or automatically
brake the vehicle suddenly in
situations where it is unexpected
and undesired. It could falsely alert
or brake for objects similar in shape
or size to pedestrians, including
shadows. This is normal operation
and the vehicle does not need
service. To override Automatic
Braking, firmly press the accelerator
pedal, if it is safe to do so.
