A LETTER FROM YOUR
INTELLILINK MARKETING TEAM

Buick’s brand mission is to be the most friendly, down-to-earth
luxury brand in the world. We’re pleased to deliver on this mission
with the next evolution of IntelliLink, our premium and refined
infotainment system

Overall new services for select IntelliLink radios include:

• Siri Eyes Free to enable iPhone users to access more of their
phone’s features through the radio (new for LaCrosse and Regal)

• Text Message Alerts, a hands-free method of receiving text
messages in your vehicle (new for LaCrosse and Regal)

INTRODUCING ONSTAR 4G LTE WI-FI SERVICE

To complement IntelliLink’s premium infotainment system, we’re
pleased to offer OnStar 4G LTE Wi-Fi service that makes select
Buick vehicles (new for Verano, Encore, LaCrosse and Regal) a
rolling Wi-Fi hotspot. The hotspot is powered by your vehicle, so
when your vehicle is running, your hotspot is active.

• The 4G connection is stronger because of a more powerful
antenna. And up to seven Wi-Fi devices can be connected
at once, so when you’re chauffeuring your family or driving
carpool, everyone can use Wi-Fi.

Please use this updated Details Book to learn about the new and

SIRI EYES FREE FOR iPHONE USERS

Siri Eyes Free gives compatible iPhone users

hands-free access to some of their phone’s
features, like the calendar and text messaging.

Siri Eyes Free allows users to direct Siri to perform
a number of tasks while they safely keep their
eyes on the road and their hands on the wheel. To
further minimize distraction, Siri takes hands-free
functionality even further with an Eyes Free mode
that enables users to interact with their iPhone

using nothing more than their voice.

ENCLAVETABLE OF CONTENTS LACROSSE & REGAL VERANO & ENCORE

HOW TO USE SIRI EYES FREE

Owners simply connect their iPhone with the
IntelliLink radio via Bluetooth, pair with the
system, and use the Push-to-Talk (PTT) button on the
steering wheel controls to begin and end sessions
with Siri in Eyes Free mode. Press and hold the
PTT button long enough until Siri speaks; pressing
and holding the PTT button for too short a period
of time will engage the onboard voice recognition
system and bypass Siri. Siri can:

• Make voice-activated, hands-free calls to

contacts on their iPhone

• Play songs in the iTunes library and even switch

music sources automatically from AM/FM/XM
radio to iPod mode

• Listen to, compose and send an iMessage or
text message to a phone number or anyone in
saved Contacts

• Access calendar and add appointments

Video: Siri Eyes Free

• Answer simple questions such as game scores
or the dates of national holidays; while in Eyes
Free mode, Siri will not provide answers to
complex questions that require displaying a
web page
