Radio Reception

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

Radio 19
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 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.

No picture : Check that the correct video input mode is selected. Check that the video cable is plugged into the jack securely.
No Sound : Check that the correct audio input mode is selected. Check that the audio cable is securely plugged into the jack.
Cleaning the Video Screens
The video display screens are made of a specially coated glass and can be scratched or damaged by abrasive products, solvents, or ammonia-based window cleaners. Clean with a soft, lint-free, cotton cloth that has been slightly dampened with warm water. Dry the screens by wiping with a clean dry cotton cloth.
Cleaning the Components
Use care when touching or cleaning the components such as the DVD player or the discs.
Do not use DVD lens cleaners for DVD players because the lens of the DVD optics can become contaminated by lubricants.
Handle CDs and DVDs carefully. Store them in their original cases or other protective cases and away from direct sunlight and dust. The DVD player scans the bottom surface of the disc. If the surface of a CD or DVD is damaged, such as cracked, broken, or scratched, the CD or DVD may not play properly or not at all. If the surface of a CD or DVD is soiled, take a soft, lint free cloth or dampen a clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral detergent solution mixed with water, and clean it. Make sure the wiping process starts from the center to the edge.
Do not touch the bottom side of a CD or DVD while handling it; this could damage the surface. Pick up CDs or DVDs by grasping the outer edges or the edge of the hole and the outer edge.

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 POIs 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.

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 in 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.

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
or touch 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.
g on the touchscreen
Voice recognition can be used when the ignition is on or when Retained Accessory Power (RAP) is active. See Retained Accessory Power (RAP)in the owner manual.
Using Voice Recognition
Voice recognition becomes available once the system has been initialized. This begins when the ignition is turned on. Initialization may take a few moments.

g
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.
.
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 pressing 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 Helpor 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
g again.
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 Dave Smith at work,” “Playfollowed 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.
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 Phoneor 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 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 Backor touch the Back screen button to go to the previous screen.
If in voice recognition, and Backis stated all the way through to the initial screen, then Backis stated one more time, the voice recognition session will cancel.
Help
Say Helpon 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.

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 Songmust 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.
Page 92
Cadillac CUE Infotainment System (GMNA-Localizing-U.S/Canada-
9084922) - 2016 - crc - 7/31/15
Voice Recognition 91
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 Albummust 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.
