HOW TO USE SUPER CRUISE

Not offered on Cadillac CT6 or XT6.
 

Select compatible Cadillac models equipped with Super Cruise can steer to perform a single lane change under certain conditions^†, if Lane Change On Demand capability is enabled in the vehicle’s Settings menu. Not all vehicles with Super Cruise can do this. Lane change functionality does not work while trailering. 

Remember, you must continue to focus on the highway and traffic prior to and during the lane change maneuver.

To request a lane change while you’re using Super Cruise with Lane Change On Demand:
 

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’ve started transitioning 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: 

• Lane Change On Demand functionality is only available on Super Cruise-enabled compatible highways.  
• Super Cruise lane change functionality is not available when a construction zone is detected.  
• Super Cruise lane change will be disabled when a trailer is detected and may be disabled when other accessories (e.g., bike rack, cargo tray, etc.) are detected. 

Not offered on Cadillac CT6 or XT6.

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: 
 

• The Super Cruise System may initiate a lane change to the left or right to pass a slower-moving vehicle ahead and a subsequent lane change to return to your original lane.
• The Super Cruise System may initiate a lane change to the left or right when the current lane is ending ahead.

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. 

On some models, you can enable Automatic Lane Change functionality as an upgrade available for purchase (C$500 for 2021 CT4 and CT5; C$700 including trailering upgrade for 2021 Escalade). The upgrade can be purchased in the myCadillac® mobile app^†, on onstar.ca or by speaking to an Advisor, and then have it delivered to the vehicle through a Vehicle Software Update.

After purchasing the upgrade, a pop-up notification will appear on the centre display indicating a vehicle update is available. Tap "Install Update" to begin the process (follow directions on screen; the vehicle must be parked and will be disabled during the update). A confirmation will appear on screen when the update is successful.

If you have questions about this upgrade, contact OnStar to speak to an Advisor.

Available as an upgrade for purchase on the 2021 or 2022 Escalade. Not offered on Cadillac CT4, CT5, CT6 or XT6 or LYRIQ.

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.

On some models, you have to purchase an upgrade to enable trailering ($200 on 2022 Escalade; price before taxes and fees. Price subject to change). Without this upgrade, you cannot use Super Cruise on these vehicles while towing a trailer. You can shop for the upgrade from the myCadillac mobile app, on onstar.ca or by speaking to an OnStar Advisor, and then delivered to the vehicle through a Vehicle Software Update.  

Once the update completes downloading, you will be prompted with a pop-up notification on your infotainment screen. This will appear once you shift your vehicle back into Park after your next drive.
