Radio Reception

Unplug electronic devices from the accessory power outlets if there is interference or static in the radio.

FM signals only reach about 16 to 65 km (10 to 40 mi). Although the radio has a built-in electronic circuit that automatically works to reduce interference, some static can occur, especially around tall buildings or hills, causing the sound to fade in and out.

The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM, especially at night. The longer range can cause station frequencies to interfere with

each other. Static can also occur when things like storms and power lines interfere with radio reception. When this happens, try reducing the treble on the radio.

SiriusXM®Satellite Radio Service

If equipped, SiriusXM Satellite Radio Service provides digital radio reception. Tall buildings or hills can interfere with satellite radio signals, causing the sound to fade in and out. In addition, traveling or standing under heavy foliage, bridges, garages, or tunnels may cause loss of the SiriusXM signal for a period of time.

Cell Phone Usage

Cell phone usage, such as making or receiving phone calls, charging, or just having the phone on may cause static interference in the radio. Unplug the phone or turn it off if this happens.

Backglass Antenna

The AM-FM antenna is integrated with the rear window defogger in the rear window. Do not scratch the inside surface or damage the lines in the glass. If the inside surface is damaged, it could interfere with radio reception. For proper radio reception, the antenna connector needs to be properly attached to the post on the glass.

If attaching a cell phone antenna to the glass, attach it between the grid lines.

Caution

Using a razor blade or sharp object to clear the inside rear window can damage the rear window antenna and/or the rear window defogger. Repairs would not be covered by the vehicle warranty. Do not clear the inside rear window with sharp objects.

Caution

Do not apply aftermarket glass tinting with metallic film. The metallic film in some tinting materials will interfere with or distort the incoming radio reception. Any damage caused to the backglass antenna due to metallic tinting materials will not be covered by the vehicle warranty.

Multi-Band Antenna

The roof antenna is for OnStar®, SiriusXM (Global Positioning System). Keep clear of obstructions for clear reception. If the vehicle has a sunroof and it is open, or items are placed on the roof mounted cargo rack, reception can also be affected.

Navigation 39

While creating a predefined POI, the GPS coordinates for longitude and latitude of the POI’s location and a descriptive name will need to be entered.

After creating the predefined POIs, they can be downloaded to the infotainment system from either a USB stick or SD card.

Once downloaded, the POI data becomes a selectable destination in the My POIs menu.

Creating a Text File with Information

Create a text file by using a simple text editor software. Save this file with a name and extension of .csv, for example, “TomsPOI.csv.”

Enter the POI information into the text file in the following format:

Longitude coordinate, Latitude coordinate, “Name of POI,” “Additional information,” “Phone number.”

Example: 7.0350000,

50.6318040, “Michaels Home,”

“123 Maple Lane,” “02379234567.”

The GPS coordinates must be expressed in decimal degrees and can be taken from a geographical map. The additional information and phone number strings are optional.

The POI name and the additional information string may not exceed 60 characters.

POI information for each destination address must be entered in a single separate line.

Storing the POI on a USB Drive

In the root directory of a USB drive, create a folder name “myPOIs,” for example, “F:\” is the root directory of the USB drive.

In the “myPOIs” folder, store the text file with your POIs, for example, “F:\myPOIs\TomsPOIs.csv.”

Downloading the POI to the Infotainment System

Connect the USB drive or SD card containing the POI information to the USB port or SD card slot of the infotainment system. A message displays prompting whether or not to download the POI information from the USB stick. All POIs found are saved even if they are in multiple folders.

Subfolders can also be created to organize the POIs into categories, for example, “F:\myPOIs\ Restaurants\TomsPOIs.csv.”

If the message is dismissed or ignored, no POI information is downloaded. This prompt will not reoccur for the current ignition cycle.

When the system is finished downloading, a pop-up displays asking to specify a category for the new POIs, if desired.

Importing and Overwriting Categories

When POIs are found on a media device, the date of the file is examined and compared to the date for the files already in the system. If the file being downloaded is newer than the one on the system, that particular category of POIs is overwritten. Any other POIs that had previously been saved in other categories are not affected.

Address Book Download

If an Address Book is found on the connected USB device, the same alert is used to indicate that locations have been found and they can be downloaded. If there is already content in the vehicle Address Book, the system prompts if the stored content should be overwritten. Select Save to overwrite the existing Address Book information. Select Cancel to abort the import of information.

Browsing Downloaded POIs

Access the downloaded POIs by selecting the My POIs list item in the POIs list.

Edit My POIs

Downloaded POIs can be edited at a category level. These POIs can either be deleted as an entire category or be reassigned as another category. To edit the categories:

Select the EDIT button at the main category view to edit the POIs. Edit buttons display next to each category name. There is no POI browsing in this mode. Only edit functions are available.

Once an action such as deleting or reassigning has been selected, the changes are saved immediately.

Changing POI Categories

POI categories can be assigned to a different category by using the same method as assigning a category for an Address Book entry. When editing, the right side of the screen displays the current category name.

Deleting POI Categories

POI categories can be deleted by selecting Edit and then Delete. A pop-up displays to confirm the deletion.

The route might not be changed when using automatic rerouting.

There is no route guidance when turning at an intersection.

Plural names of places might be announced occasionally.

It could take a long time to operate automatic rerouting during high-speed driving.

Automatic rerouting might display a route returning to the set waypoint if heading for a destination without passing through a set waypoint.

The route prohibits the entry of a vehicle due to a regulation by time or season or any other regulation which may be given.

Some routes might not be searched.

The route to the destination might not be shown if there are new roads, if roads have

recently changed, or if certain roads are not listed in the map data. See Maps 0 35.

To recalibrate the vehicle's position on the map, park with the vehicle running for two to five minutes, until the vehicle position updates. Make sure the vehicle is parked in a location that is safe and has a clear view of the sky and away from large obstructions.

Map Data Updates

The map data in the vehicle is the most up-to-date information available when the vehicle was produced. The map data is updated periodically, provided that the map information has changed.

For questions about the operation of the navigation system or the update process, contact the GM Nav Disc Center toll-free phone number, 1-877-NAV-DISC (1-877-628-3472) or go to the center ’s website, www.gmnavdisc.com. If updates are needed, call the GM Nav Disc Center or order online.

To order, have the vehicle’s Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) available to ensure the correct and most up-to-date map data for the vehicle is sent. See “Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)” in the owner manual.

Database Coverage Explanations

Coverage areas vary with respect to the level of map detail available for any given area. Some areas feature greater levels of detail than others. If this happens, it does not mean there is a problem with the system. As the map data is updated, more detail can become available for areas that previously had limited detail. See Map Data Updates 0 52.

Voice Recognition

Voice recognition allows for hands-free operation within the navigation, audio, phone, and weather applications. This feature

can be started by pressing the button on the steering wheel or

touching the display.

However, not all features within these areas are supported by voice commands. Generally, only complex tasks that require multiple manual interactions to complete are supported by voice commands.

For example, tasks that take more than one or two button presses such as selecting a song or artist to play from a media device would be supported by voice commands. Other tasks, like adjusting the volume or seeking up or down, are audio features that are easily performed by pressing one or two buttons, and are not supported by voice commands.

Touch the Home screen button. Touching this button will terminate a voice recognition session which was initiated by touching the button on the radio touchscreen.

Touch or say “Cancel” or “Exit” to terminate the voice recognition session and display the screen from which voice recognition was initiated.

Most languages do not support natural language commands in sentence form. For those languages, use direct commands like the examples shown on the display.

c on the steering wheel

Press controls to terminate the voice session and display the screen from which voice recognition was initiated.

Helpful Hints for Speaking Commands

Voice recognition can understand commands that are either naturally stated in sentence form, or direct commands that state the application and the task.

For best results:

Listen for the prompt and wait for the beep before saying a command or reply.

Say “Help” or look at the screen display for example commands.

Voice recognition prompt can be interrupted while it is playing by

pressing

g again.

For example, if the prompt seems to be taking too long to finish, to speak the command without waiting for the prompt to

complete, press wait for the beep.

Speak the command naturally, not too fast, not too slow. Use direct commands without a lot of extra words.

Usually Phone and Audio commands can be spoken in a single command.

For example, “Call David Smith at work,” “Play” followed by the artist or song name, or “Tune” followed by the radio station number.

Navigation destinations are too complex for a single command. First, state a command that explains the type of destination needed, such as I want directions to an “Address,” “Navigate to an intersection,” “I need to find a Place of Interest or POI,” or “Directions to a Contact.” The system responds with requesting more details.

g again and

Voice Recognition 55

After saying “Place of Interest,” only major chains are available by name. Chains are businesses with at least 20 locations. For other POIs, say the name of a category like “Restaurants,” “Shopping Malls,” or “Hospitals.”

Most languages do not support natural language commands in sentence form. For those languages, use direct commands like the examples shown on the display.

There is no need to memorize specific command words. Direct commands might be more clearly understood by the system. An example of a direct command would be “Call 555-1212.” Examples of these direct commands are displayed on most of the screens while a voice session is active. If “Phone” or “Phone Commands,” is stated, the system understands that a phone call is requested and will respond with questions until enough details are gathered.

If the phone number has been saved with a name and a place, the direct command should include both, for example “Call David Smith at work.”

Using Voice Recognition for List Options

When a list is displayed, a voice prompt will ask to confirm or select an option from that list. A selection can be made by manually selecting the item, or by speaking the line number for the item to select.

When a screen contains a list, there may be options that are available but not displayed. The list on a voice recognition screen functions the same as a list on other screens. Scrolling or flinging can be used to help display other entries from the list.

Manually scrolling or paging the list on a screen during a voice recognition session suspends the current voice recognition event and plays the prompt “Make your selection from the list using the

manual controls, press the faceplate, or touch the Back screen button to try again.”

If manual selection takes more than 15 seconds, the session terminates and prompts that it has timed out. The screen returns to the screen where voice recognition was initiated.

The Back Command

Say “Back” or press faceplate, or touch the Back screen button to go to the previous screen.

If in voice recognition, and “Back” is stated all the way through to the initial screen, then “Back” is stated one more time, the voice recognition session will cancel.

Help

Say “Help” on any voice recognition screen and the help prompt for the screen is played. Additionally, a pop-up displays a text version of the help prompt. Depending on how voice recognition was initiated, the Help pop-up will either display on the instrument cluster or the

Handling Large Amounts of Media Content

It is expected that large amounts of media content will be brought into the vehicle. It may be necessary to handle large amounts of media content in a different way than smaller amounts of media. The system may limit the options of voice recognition by not allowing selection of song titles by voice at the highest level if the number of songs exceeds the maximum limit.

Voice command option changes through media content limits are:

Song files including other individual files of all media types such as audiobook chapters, podcast episodes, and videos.

Album type folders including types such as albums and audiobooks.

There are no restrictions if the number of song files and albums is less than 4,000. When the number of song files connected to the system is between 4,000 and 8,000, the content cannot be accessed directly with one command like “Play <song name>.”

The restriction is that the command “Play Song” must be spoken first; the system will then ask for the song name. The reply command would be to say the name of the song to play.

Similar limits exist for album content. If there are more than 4,000 albums, but less than 8,000, the content cannot be accessed directly with one command like, “Play <album name>” The

command “Play Album” must first be spoken; the system will then ask for the album name. The reply would be to say the name of the album to play.

Once the number of songs has exceeded approximately 8,000, there is no support for accessing the songs directly through voice commands. There will still be access to the media content by using commands for playlists, artists, and genres.

The access commands for playlists, artists, and genres are prohibited after the number of this type of media exceeds 4,000.

The system will provide feedback the first time voice recognition is initiated if it has become apparent that any of these limits are reached during a device initializing process.

Voice Recognition for Navigation

Bluetooth (Overview)

The Bluetooth-capable system can interact with many cell phones, allowing:

Placement and receipt of calls in a hands-free mode.

Sharing of the cell phone’s address book or contact list with the vehicle.

To minimize driver distraction, before driving, and with the vehicle parked:

Become familiar with the features of the cell phone. Organize the phone book and contact lists clearly and delete duplicate or rarely used entries. If possible, program speed dial or other shortcuts.

Review the controls and operation of the infotainment system.

Pair cell phone(s) to the vehicle. The system may not work with all cell phones. See “Pairing” in this section.

Vehicles with a Bluetooth system can use a Bluetooth-capable cell phone with a Hands-Free Profile to make and receive phone calls. The infotainment system and voice recognition are used to control the system. The system can be used while in ON/RUN or ACC/ ACCESSORY. The range of the Bluetooth system can be up to 9.1 m (30 ft).
