Maps

This section includes basic information that you need to know about the map database.
The maps are stored on a DVD-ROM. The 48 contiguous Unites States, Hawaii, and portions of Canada are contained on one disc. The U.S. map database includes interstate freeways, state highways, country roads, and major and general streets.
Refer to the “Navigation System Map Disc” manual to view the explanation of map coverage. The map disc manual will be in your map DVD case when the vehicle is delivered from the factory.
When your vehicle is delivered from the factory, the dealer may have installed the map DVD. If the DVD was not installed in your vehicle when first purchased, do the following:
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. If already loaded, eject the map DVD or audio CD from the slot.
3. Load the map DVD into the slot by inserting it partway. The system will pull it in.
Once the map DVD is inserted correctly, you will have the following two choices:
Select a Language
Agree
English is the default language, or you can choose to select French or Spanish at this time. See “Language” under Setup Menu on page 2-7 for more information.
You may also select Agree to go to the navigation screen. The map will appear with your current vehicle position on the map.
If your current vehicle position is incorrect on the map, see “Vehicle Position” under Setup Menu on page 2-7.
Map Adjustments
The system allows you to adjust the scale of view on the map. The map will scroll automatically based on the direction you are traveling.
To view a larger or smaller scale of the map, press the reconfigurable soft key next to the zoom in or zoom out prompts. See “Hard Keys” under Using the Navigation System on page 2-2 for more information.
Map Scales
The scale of a map can range from 1/64 of a mile (25 km) to 80 miles (128 km).

When your route guidance has been planned, it will be highlighted and a checkered flag will appear on the map to show your destination. Symbols will also appear for any waypoints that have been set, and “Route Calculation Completed” will be displayed.
2-32
Traveling on a Planned Route
After a route has been calculated and the route highlighted, you may hear an audio prompt to proceed to the highlighted route. When you are ready, drive the vehicle to the highlighted route. Once you begin driving on the route, the system will give additional audio and visual prompts as you approach your next maneuver. Each maneuver is indicated on the map with a red maneuver pin.
Maneuver Pins
Maneuver pins are red stick pin icons on the map that indicate changes in the road or special action that must be taken by the driver to remain on the currently traveled road. For example, the road may have a sharp curve in it. The curve would not qualify as an official turn on the planned route. However, the driver must be aware of the curve so that he or she can stay on the planned route. Maneuver pins are always displayed along a planned route, but voice prompts and screen popups will only be given if these features are turned on.
As you are traveling, the current road is shown at the bottom center of the map screen. In addition, the next maneuver will be in the upper center of the map screen. Anytime while on the route, you can press the navigation repeat key to get an audio prompt of your next maneuver.
There are two different types of roads in the map database. Fully attributed roads allow for a destination to be set and turn-by-turn guidance to be provided to the exact location of the address. In Process Data (IPD) roads contain only street name and address information. Other information such as turn restrictions and direction of travel is not included for these IPD roads.
2-33
Therefore, turn-by-turn guidance cannot be provided to the exact address. When trips are planned that include an IPD destination, turn-by-turn guidance will be provided on the fully attributed roads closest to the destination. When nearing the end of the highlighted route, the system will state “Enroute to your destination, some roads contain incomplete data. Turn guidance will not be provided in this area.” As you reach the end of the highlighted route, the system will state “Turn guidance will not be provided in this area. Please use the direction arrow and distance indicator to proceed to your destination.” You should refer to the direction and distance information in the lower center area of the screen to navigate to the destination or refer to the information in the waypoint box for a waypoint. A purple highlighted route will appear on the IPD roads. This is only a suggested route due to the lack of traffic restriction information on the IPD roads. Special attention should be paid to the existing traffic conditions, such as one-way streets and prohibited turns on IPD and fully attributed roads. Always follow the existing traffic restrictions in both IPD and fully attributed roads.
Once your vehicle is near your destination, the system will state “You’ve arrived at your destination, ending route guidance.”

Traveling Across Regions

If you plan a trip that exceeds 5,000 miles (8 046 km) in straight line distance from the vehicle’s current position, you will receive a message stating Destination/waypoint exceeds maximum distance. To avoid this, plan your trip in smaller segments. Select a closer destination that you would like to travel through on your way to your final destination.

Colors on the Screen

When a route has been planned, it will be highlighted on the screen in blue. If you have set a waypoint(s) for your route, the colors on the screen will change. The highlighted route to the next waypoint or destination will be blue. All highlighted routes to further waypoints or destinations will be maroon.
Different colors are also used to distinguish between interstate freeways, state highways, county roads, major streets and secondary streets. Highways will be shown as a thicker line than a general street will.

Global Positioning System (GPS)

The navigation system determines the position of your vehicle by using satellite signals, various vehicle signals, and map data.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) locates the current position of your vehicle using signals sent by the United States Department of Defense GPS satellites. While your vehicle is receiving signals from these satellites, the GPS symbol will not appear on the map screen.
However, at times, other interferences such as the satellite condition, road configuration, the condition of the vehicle, and/or other circumstances can interfere with the system’s ability to determine the accurate position of the vehicle. This is when the GPS symbol will appear on the map screen.
This system may not be available or interferences may occur if any of the following are true:
Signals are obstructed by tall buildings, large
trucks, or a tunnel.
Objects are located on the rear shelf.
Satellites are being repaired or improved.
After-market glass tinting has been applied to
the vehicle’s rear windshield.
Notice: Aftermarket glass tinting with metallic material will interfere with the system’s ability to receive GPS signals and cause the system to malfunction. You might have to replace the rear window to correct the problem. The repairs would not be covered by your warranty. Do not apply aftermarket glass tinting with metallic material to the rear window of your vehicle.
If you are experiencing a problem, see Vehicle Positioning on page 2-36 or Problems with Route Guidance on page 2-37 for more information.
2-35

Vehicle Positioning

At times, the position of the vehicle on the map may be inaccurate due to one or more of the following reasons:
The road system has changed.
The vehicle is traveling on slippery road surfaces
such as sand, gravel, and/or snow.
The vehicle is being driven on winding roads.
The vehicle is being driven on a long straight road.
The vehicle is approaching a tall building or a
large vehicle.
The surface streets run parallel to a freeway.
The vehicle has just been transferred by a vehicle
carrier or a ferry.
The current position calibration is set incorrectly.
The vehicle is being driven at high speeds.
The vehicle is repeating a change of direction by
going forward and backward, or turning on a turn table in a parking lot.
The vehicle is entering and/or exiting a parking lot
or garage with a roof.
The vehicle has a roof carrier, ski, or bike rack
installed on it.
The vehicle has tire chains on it.
The tires have been replaced.
The tire pressure is incorrect.
The tires are worn.
The battery is disconnected.
The vehicle is driven in heavy traffic where driving
is at low speeds and the vehicle is stopped and started repeatedly.

Problems with Route Guidance

If the System Needs Service

Inappropriate route guidance may occur under any of the following conditions:
You have not turned onto the road indicated by
the system.
Route guidance is not available for the next turn.
The route is not changed during automatic rerouting.
Plural names of places are displayed.
You are driving at high speeds, which may cause
the automatic rerouting to operate more slowly.
The route prohibits the entry of a vehicle due to a
regulation by time or season or any other regulation which may be given.
A route cannot be found.
A road is new, was recently changed or is not listed
on the DVD. The route to the destination may not be shown. See Ordering Map DVDs on page 2-37.
If you are still experiencing difficulty with the navigation system after reading this information, see your GM dealer for assistance.

Ordering Map DVDs

The map DVD in your vehicle is the most up-to-date information available when your vehicle was purchased. The map DVD is updated periodically, provided that the map information has changed. To order a new map DVD, contact your dealer.

Database Coverage Explanations

Coverage areas vary with respect to the level of map detail available for any given area. Some areas will feature greater levels of detail than others. If this happens, it does not mean there is a problem with the system. As the map DVD is updated, more detail may become available for areas which previously had limited detail. See Ordering Map DVDs on page 2-37.

Voice Recognition

Voice Recognition (CTS)

If your vehicle is equipped with this feature, the navigation system’s voice recognition allows for hands-free operation of navigation and audio system features. Voice recognition can be used when the ignition is on or when Retained Accessory Power (RAP) is active.
To use navigation voice recognition, do the following:
1. Press the talk symbol steering wheel control and release it when you hear a beep. The audio system, if on, will mute.
2. Clearly state one of the commands listed on the following pages. When the system recognizes the command, it will either perform the function or issue an error message, such as “invalid command” or “command not recognized.”
The invalid command message indicates that the command cannot be used in the currently active screen. For example, if you say “Next Track” while listening to the radio, you will receive the invalid command message because the command is for the DVD player or CD changer, not the radio.
