Super Cruise Status Indicator

Super Cruise Status

Super cruise indicatorSuper Cruise indicatorThese are Super Cruise Status Indicator symbols. It will be seen when Super Cruise is engaged and shows the system status. The light is essentially a representation of the car’s steering wheel, complete with controls and is shown in gray scale in the vehicle’s information display.

  • Before continuing, is this truly your symbol?? If yes, then read on below.
  • Otherwise, you can return to our main Picture Symbols page and scan again!

Super Cruise, which is a brand name belonging to Cadillac, or more specifically General Motors, is a hands-free driving system that is essentially an upgrade of Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Lane Keeping systems. It has since been incorporated into Buick models, which uses the second symbol.

How it Works

Super Cruise uses cameras, global positioning system (GPS) sensing, high-precision maps, additional GPS information from OnStar to detect the current lane position and lane markings ahead on limited access freeways under the proper conditions. Super Cruise will not operate otherwise and the indicator will be off. It will also not operate if Driver Attention System (DAS) sees that the driver’s attention is not on the road.

An active OnStar or connected service plan that includes Emergency Services is required in order to use Super Cruise.

In addition, proper safety procedures and precautions, such as the  use of safety goggles, the right tools and the equipment should be followed at all times to eliminate the possibility of personal injury or improper service which could damage the vehicle or compromise its safety.

Pop Up Hood Warning Indicator

Pop Up Hood

Pop up hood indicatorPop up hood indicatorThese are Pop Up Hood Warning Indicator symbols. The Pop Up Hood system is a pedestrian safety system akin to the interior air bags. The symbol warns that the system is not available, either due to a malfunction or because it has already been used. The light appears as the front of a vehicle with the hood separated or broken from the windshield.

  • Before moving on, are you sure this is your symbol?? If yes, then continue on below.
  • Otherwise return to our main Picture Symbols page and scan again!

The pop up hood is used – that is, blown open by explosives – if a front impact is detected that is equal to or greater than that of a pedestrian and between about 16 to 34 mph (25 to 55 km/h). The system may also activate when colliding with a curb, falling into a deep hole landing hard, or hitting the slope of a parking lot, an undulating road, a protruding object or falling object.

If the system has not been activated, have a qualified service shop or your dealer repair the system. If it has been used, it will need to be reset by the shop or dealer.

Remember that only proper service and repair procedures will ensure the safe and reliable operation of your car. In addition, proper safety procedures and precautions, such as the  use of safety goggles, the right tools and the equipment should be followed at all times to eliminate the possibility of personal injury or improper service which could damage the vehicle or compromise its safety.

Rear Camera Detection Off Indicator

Rear Camera Detection

RCD off indicatorThis is a Rear Camera Detection (RCD) Off Indicator symbol. When seen it indicates that the rear camera is unavailable. If a buzzer is heard as well, it indicates a malfunction in the camera. A qualified service shop or your dealer will be needed. If a buzzer is not heard, it likely means the camera is dirty. Clean it, or the whole car!

  • Before moving on, are you sure this is your symbol?? If yes, then continue on.
  • Otherwise return to our main Text Symbols page and scan again!
