Overview

Read this manual thoroughly to become familiar with how the navigation system operates.
The navigation system includes navigation and audio functions.
While entering the vehicle or when turning the vehicle off, some DVD Map Disc noise is normal.
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 keep your eyes on the road and mind on the drive. Some features may be disabled while driving. Note that these functions will be grayed-out. A grayed-out function indicates it 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, control buttons on the faceplate, and touch-sensitive screen buttons of the navigation system.
.
Set up the audio by presetting favorite stations, setting the tone, and adjusting the speakers.
.
Set up the navigation features before beginning driving, such as entering an address or a preset destination.
.
Set up your phone numbers in advance so they can be called easily with the press of 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 resulting in injury or death to you or others. Focus your attention on driving.
WARNING
{
Avoid looking too long or too often at the moving map on the navigation screen. This could cause a crash and you or others can be injured or killed. Use the turn-by-turn voice guidance directions whenever possible.
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.
You should 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. Because the system uses limited information, you must 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 the information below, and you must read and acknowledge the information it contains.
Infotainment System 5
After you acknowledge the start up information you will be able to access the NAV (navigation) and DEST (destination) functions. Once accessed, you can enter or delete information in the navigation system or access other functions. See instructions later in this section.
Every fifty 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.

Global Positioning System (GPS)

The navigation system determines the position of the vehicle by using satellite signals, various vehicle signals, and map data.
At times, other interferences such as the satellite condition, road configuration, the condition of the vehicle and/or other circumstances can interfere with the navigation system's ability to determine the accurate position of the vehicle.
The GPS shows the current position of the vehicle using signals sent by the GPS Satellites. When the vehicle is not receiving signals from the satellites, a symbol appears on the map screen. Refer to Navigation Symbols on page 32.
This system may not be available or interferences may occur if any of the following is true:
.
Signals are obstructed by tall buildings, trees, large trucks, or a tunnel.
.
Objects are located on the rear shelf of the vehicle.
.
Satellites are being repaired or improved.
.
After-market glass tinting has been applied to the vehicle's rear windshield.
Notice: Do not apply after-market glass tinting to the vehicle's windows. Glass tinting interferes with the system's ability to receive GPS signals and causes the system to malfunction. The window might have to be replaced to correct the problem. This would not be covered by the warranty.
For more information if the GPS is not functioning properly, see
Problems with Route Guidance on page 62 and If the System Needs Service on page 63.

If the System Needs Service

If the navigation system needs service and the steps listed here have been followed but there are still problems, see your dealer for assistance.

Ordering Map DVDs

The map DVD in the vehicle is the most up-to-date information available when the vehicle was produced. The map DVD is updated periodically, provided that the map information has changed.
For any questions about the operation of the navigation system or the update process, contact the GM Nav Disc Center tollfree phone number, 1877NAVDISC (18776283472) or go to the center's website, www.gmnavdisc.com. For any updates or replacements, call the GM Nav Disc Center or order a new disc online. Have the Vehicle
Identification Number (VIN) available when ordering to ensure the correct and most up-to-date DVD map disc for the vehicle is sent. See Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)in the Index of the vehicle's owner manual for more information.
After receiving the updated disc, replace the old disc in the navigation system. See Installing the DVD Map Discand Ejecting the DVD Map Discunder Maps on page 29. Dispose of the old disc to avoid confusion about which disc is the most current.

Database Coverage Explanations

Coverage area depends upon the map detail available. Some areas have greater map detail than others. The navigation system works only as well as the information provided on the map disc. See Ordering Map DVDs on page 63 on how to obtain updated map information.

Voice Recognition

The navigation system's voice recognition allows for hands-free operation of the navigation system, audio system, and OnStar features. The DVD map disc must be installed in the navigation system for voice recognition to work. See Installing the DVD Map Discunder Maps on page 29. 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 Index of your vehicle's owner manual and for more information.
To use voice recognition, do the following:
1. Push and hold the SRCE (source) steering wheel control until you hear a beep. The audio system, if on, will mute.
