Radio Reception

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

FM

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.

AM

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

Caution

Do not apply aftermarket glass
tinting with metallic film. The
metallic film in some tinting
materials will interfere with or

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 Satellite Radio (U.S. and
Canada only), and GPS (Global
Positioning System). Keep clear of
obstructions for clear reception.

If the vehicle has a sunroof, and it is
open, reception can also be
affected.

Channel 1 or 2 switch, and a
volume control. The Digital
headphones cannot be
interchanged with previous models
of GM headphones.

Press the power button to turn on
the headphones. A light on the
headphones comes on. A flashing

light indicates the headphones are
not in range. Move them closer to
the left side screen until light stops
flashing. If the light does not come

Press the center of the right side of
the headphone to change the
channel. Channel 1 will provide
audio associated with screen 1 and

The headphones shut off
automatically to save the battery
power if the RSI system is off or if
the headphones are out of range of
the transmitters for more than
three minutes. Moving too far
forward or stepping out of the
vehicle can cause the headphones
to lose the signal or have static.

Use the volume control wheel on
the right side of the headphones to
adjust the volume.

For best audio performance, wear
the headphones as indicated with
L (Left) and R (Right) on the ear
pads. Do not let anything cover the
ear pads.

Caution

Do not store the headphones in
heat or direct sunlight. This could
damage the headphones and
repairs will not be covered by the
warranty. Storage in extreme cold
can weaken the batteries. Keep
the headphones stored in a cool,
dry place.

If the foam ear pads become worn
or damaged, the pads can be
replaced separately. To purchase
replacement ear pads, call
1-888-293-3332 or contact your
dealer.

Enter a full or partial Address,
Contact, or POI into the search bar
and the system will search and
display all of the matches.

The contacts that are searched
includes both connected phone’s
contacts list and the vehicle’s
contacts list.

Search Process

The process of prioritizing the
search is to help shorten the length
of time at finding the results. If there
is a 100% match found when a
search type is carried out, the
remaining searches abort.

The system conducts the search in
the following order:

1. Vehicle Contacts List

2. Connected Phone
Contacts List

3. POIs

4. Addresses

The Contacts are done first because
the list will be relatively short and
can be done quickly.

POIs are done next because the
amount of time it takes for search
for the average POI is consistent.
The less deviation during a search
would mean an average of less time
taken.

The Addresses are last because the
standard deviation for an address
search is very large. Some address
searches are very quick, but others

the address search would not be
conducted unless a good match
could not be found in either
Contacts or POIs.

Autocomplete

The autocomplete is preloaded with
all recent destinations and POI
category names. Previous POI
name searches are remembered.

If only one type of result is found,
the single type result screen is
shown. Within each group, they are
listed in confidence order. This
means the highest confidence result
will be at the top.

If multiple types of matches are
found, the result list with the highest
confidence match displays.

Address and Contact matches are
shown in full width list format. The
match results will display unique
icons for full addresses, streets,
intersections, cities, states, and
countries.

POIs show in a split list format with
the map on the right displaying the
locations of the matches. The brand
icon or category icon will display for
the match results.

When a list displays, the results for
a particular type can be filtered by
touching the filter buttons along the
top of the screen. If there are no
particular results for a selected type,
a message is indicated in the list.

For example:

.

For no addresses: “No
Addresses Found Within <state/
region>”

.

For no POIs: “No POIs Found
Within<75 km/50 mi/800 km/
500 mi>.” This distance is shown
depending on what radius is
completed and what current
units are selected.

.

For no contacts: “No Contacts
Found.”

The system performs partial
searches on contacts, so typing a
first name or last name would find a

match. The entire contact name
does not need to be entered for it to
be found in a search.

Touching a contact listed on the
results list displays the standard
contact details view to select an
item, such as an address to start
routing, or a phone number to place
a call.

Address

.

A destination can be searched
by typing out the address,
intersection, highway, or freeway
entrance ramps on the
keyboard. This information is
typed and displayed in the
information field. Touch the
search icon to start the search.

State information does not have
to be included in the search field
if entering an address that is
located in the same state.

.

Whenever the keyboard view is
entered, the last text that was
typed, even if it was not
searched on, will display.

.

A partial or complete address
can be typed in the search field.
If a partial address is typed, the
system attempts to use local
knowledge to fill in additional
information. For example, if no
city name or state are given, the
system assumes a search for
something in the current city or a
nearby city in the current state.
The system is also capable of
recognizing address formats
according to other regions.

If a destination address or location
being entered is outside of the
country, the country abbreviation
must be added after the address.

Spelling Mistakes

The system is able to offer
alternatives if the searched term is
not found exactly. The system uses
the closest term it finds and
provides those results.

The system first searches the
entered term exactly. If no matches
are found, partial words are used.

Creating and Downloading
Predefined POIs (My POIs)

In addition to the POIs already
stored in the Infotainment system,
predefined POIs can be created.

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 a USB
stick.

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 containing
the POI information to the USB port
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.

Voice Recognition

Voice recognition allows for
hands-free operation within the
navigation, audio, phone, and
weather applications. This feature
can be started by pressing either

the

g button on the steering wheel

g on the touchscreen display.

or

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 a two button touch 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 touching one or two
buttons, and are not supported by
voice commands.

In general there are flexible ways to
speak commands for completing the
tasks. Most of them, except

destination entry and voice keypad,
can be completed in a single
command. If the task takes more
than one command to complete, the
first command should be to indicate
the kind of task to be performed, like
“ NavigationDestination Entry.” The
system replies with prompts that
lead you through a dialog to enter
the necessary information. For
example, if a destination for route
guidance is needed, say
“Navigation” or “Destination Entry.”

If your language supports it, try
stating a One Shot command, such
as “Navigate to Address one two
three Main Street, Lansing
Michigan.” This type of destination
entry command is supported in
some languages. Another example
of a One Shot Destination Entry
command is, “Navigate to Place Of
Interest – Hotels.” If these
commands don’t work, try saying,

“Navigate to Place of Interest” or
“Navigate to Address” and the

system will for the rest.

Voice recognition can be used when
the ignition is on or when Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) is active.
See “Retained Accessory Power

instrument cluster display.

2. The audio system mutes and
the system plays a prompt
followed by a beep.

3. Wait until after the beep

one of the commands
described in this section.

A voice recognition system
prompt can be interrupted while

it is playing by pressing
again.

For example, if the prompt
seems to be taking too long to

finish, press
beep should happen
right away.

There are two voice prompt modes
supported:

.

Long verbal prompts: The longer
prompts provide more
information regarding the
supported actions.

g again and the

g

.

Short prompts: The short
prompts provide simple
instructions about what can be
stated.

If a command is not spoken, the
voice recognition system says a
help prompt.

Prompts and Screen Displays

While a voice recognition session is
active, there will be corresponding
buttons on screens displayed.
Manual interaction in the voice
recognition session is permitted.
Interaction during a voice session
may be completed entirely using
voice commands, or some
selections may expedite a session.
If a selection is made using a
manual control, the dialog will
progress in the same way as if the
selection was made through a voice
command. Once the system is able
to complete the task, or the session
is terminated, the voice recognition
dialog stops.

An example of this type of manual
intervention is touching on an entry
of a displayed number list instead of
speaking the number associated
with the entry desired.

Canceling Voice Recognition

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

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.

.

A voice recognition system
prompt can be interrupted while

it is playing by pressing

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.

g again and

g again.

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

For example, “Call Dave 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.
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.”

Some languages support complete
destination requests in a single
command. If your language

Voice Recognition 87

supports it, try stating a One Shot
command such as, “Navigate to
Address one two three Main Street,
Lansing Michigan.” Another
example of a One Shot Destination
Entry command is, “Navigate to
Place Of Interest – Hotels.” If these
commands do not work, try saying

“Navigate to Place Of Interest” or
“Navigate to Address” and the

system will come back and ask for
details of your destination.

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

Cadillac CT6 CUE Infotainment System (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-

9245669) - 2016 - crc - 4/6/16

88 Voice Recognition

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 Dave 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, 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 back to the
screen where voice recognition was
initiated.

The Back Command

Say “Back” 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

infotainment touchscreen. Touch the
Dismiss button to make the pop-up
go away.

Touching
playing will terminate the prompt
and a beep will be heard. Doing this
will stop the help prompt so that a

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.

9245669) - 2016 - crc - 4/6/16

Voice Recognition 91

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.
