Overview

Read this manual thoroughly to become familiar with how the navigation system operates.

The navigation system includes navigation and audio functions.

Keeping your eyes on the road and your mind on the drive is important for safe driving. The navigation system has built-in features intended to help with this by disabling some features when driving. A grayed-out function is not available when the vehicle is moving.

All functions are available when the vehicle is parked. Do the following before driving:

Become familiar with the navigation system operation, buttons on the faceplate, and touch-sensitive screen buttons.

Set up the audio by presetting favorite stations, setting the tone, and adjusting the speakers.

Set up the navigation features, such as entering an address or a preset destination.

Set up phone numbers in advance so they can be called easily by pressing a single button or a single voice command for navigation systems equipped with phone capability.

WARNING

{

Taking your eyes off the road too long or too often while using the navigation system could cause a crash and you or others could be injured or killed. Focus your attention on driving and limit glances at the moving map on the navigation screen. Use voice guidance whenever possible.

Cadillac CTS/CTS-V Navigation System (Includes Mex) - 2012

Infotainment System 5

Use the navigation system to:

Plan a route.

Select a destination using various methods and choices.

Follow turn-by-turn route and map guidance with voice prompts, only if permitted by traffic laws, controls, and conditions.

Receive RDS broadcast announcements.

Always be alert and obey traffic and roadway laws and instructions, regardless of the guidance from the navigation system. Because the navigation system uses street map information that does not include all traffic restrictions or the latest road changes, it may suggest using a

road that is now closed for construction or a turn that is prohibited by signs at the intersection. Always evaluate whether following the system's directions is safe and legal for the current conditions.

When the navigation system is turned on, a screen may appear with information that must be read and acknowledged before accessing some navigation features.

After acknowledging the start up information, the NAV (Navigation) and DEST (Destination) functions are accessible. Information can now be entered or deleted, and other functions accessed. See instructions later in this section.

Every 50 times the vehicle is started and the navigation system is turned on, the Caution screen appears. After reading the caution, select OK to load the map DVD information. If OK is not selected, all buttons except for NAV (Navigation) and DEST (Destination) can be accessed.

When getting started, set your preferences or delete information in the navigation system using various options.

MP3

Using an MP3 CD and DVD

MP3 Format

There are guidelines that must be met, when creating an MP3 disc. If the guidelines are not met when recording a CD-R(W), the CD may not play. The guidelines are:

Sampling rate: 8 kHz, 16 kHz,

22.05 kHz, 24 kHz, 32 kHz,

44.1 kHz, and 48 kHz.

Bit rates supported: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128, 144, 160, 192, 224, 256, and 320 kbps.

ID3 tag information is displayed by the radio if it is available. The radio will display a filename, song name, artist name, album name, and directory name.

Maximum number of folders is 255 with a maximum hierarchy of eight folders.

Create a folder structure that makes it easy to find songs while driving. Each folder or album should contain 18 songs or less.

It is recommended that there is a maximum of 1024 files on a disc.

The files can be recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW with a maximum capacity of 700 MB.

Root Directory

The root directory is treated as a folder. If the root directory has compressed audio files, the directory displays as DISC. All files contained directly under the root directory are accessed prior to any root directory folders. However, playlists can always be accessed before root folders or files.

Empty Directory or Folder

If a root directory or a folder exists somewhere in the file structure that contains only folders/subfolders and no compressed files directly beneath them, the player advances to the next folder in the file structure that contains compressed audio files and the empty folder will not be displayed or numbered.

No Folder

When the CD contains only compressed files, the files are located under the root folder. The next and previous folder functions have no function on a CD that was recorded without folders or playlists. When displaying the name of the folder the radio displays Disc.

When the CD contains only playlists and compressed audio files, but no folders, all files are located under the root folder. The left and right arrow buttons search playlists (Px) first and then goes to the root folder. When the radio displays the name of the folder the radio displays DISC.

Order of Play

Tracks are played in the following order:

Play begins from the first track in the first playlist and continues sequentially through all tracks in each playlist. When the last track of the last playlist has been played, play continues from the first track of the first playlist.

If the CD does not contain any playlists, then play begins from the first track under the root directory. When all tracks from the root directory have been played, play continues from files according to their numerical listing. After playing the last track from the last folder, play begins again at the first track of the first folder or root directory.

When play enters a new folder, the display automatically shows the new folder name. The new track name displays.

File System and Naming

The song name that displays is the song name contained in the file. If the song name is not present in the file, then the radio displays the file name with the extension (such as .mp3) as the track name.

Preprogrammed Playlists

Preprogrammed playlists which were created by WinAmp™, MusicMatch™, or Real Jukebox™ software can be accessed, however, there is not editing capability. These playlists are treated as special folders containing compressed audio song files.

Playing an MP3

With the ignition on, insert a MP3 CD partway into the slot, label side up. The player pulls it in and the MP3 should begin playing. While playing a MP3, the navigation system is available. If a MP3 is inserted with the system off and the ignition on, it starts to play.
