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 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.
Multi-Band Antenna
The roof antenna is for OnStar 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.
When using media devices such as
CDs, DVDs, Blu-ray Discs, SD cards,
USB devices, and mobile devices,
consider the source. Untrusted media
devices could contain files that affect
system operation or performance.
Avoid use if the content or origin
cannot be trusted.

There can be increased skipping,
difficulty in finding tracks, and/or
difficulty in loading and ejecting.
If these problems occur, check the
disc for damage or try a known
good disc.

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 may not play 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.
It is advised to set up preferences
before setting a destination. To set a

Character Handwriting Recognition
Character handwriting recognition is
offered as an alternative to using a
keyboard. This character input
method allows the drawing out of
characters instead of picking them out
from the keyboard. Character
handwriting recognition has two main
modes, Upper Case and Mixed Case.
The Upper Case mode is used for
Destination Entry while Mixed Case is
used for all other character entry
modes. This feature is available by
touching the globe button from the
keyboard screen.
The Handwriting Recognition screen
is split into different zones:
.
Drawing Pad
.
Prioritized Guess List
.
Character Entry
.
Drawing Pad: This is the area to
draw a character. Draw a character
in the display area.
When the first character is
complete, a representation of that
character can be seen, and there is
an audible response. If the
character is correct, the next
character can be started
immediately.
‐ To delete the last entered
character, draw a line from left
to right across the character
field.
‐ To create a space, draw a line
from right to left across the
character field.
.
Prioritized Guess List: This area
displays a list of guesses for the
character drawn. If character
recognition displays the incorrect
character, look at this list and see
if the desired character is available
to select. Scroll up or down the
list, then highlight the desired
character. Selecting a character
from the list will replace the
incorrect character with the
desired character. The character is
displayed in the character entry
section of the screen.
.
Character Entry: This is the area
across the top of the screen. This
section can look different
depending on which feature is
being used.
Option Settings
This section is an area on the right
side of the Character Recognition
screen. This section will only look
different if the characters displayed on
the screen are in upper case or
mixed case.
.
k: Select from the touch screen.
The draw speed setting will adjust
the speed of the character
recognition feature. The settings
are: Faster, Default, and Slower.
.
Audio Feedback: Touch to turn
Audio Feedback On or Off.
Audio feedback is an audible
response to an action that has
occurred while using the Character
Recognition.
.
ABC/abc: Select from the touch
screen to view the available
character sets. Select a character
set to change. Multiple character
sets may not be supported by
some regions. This button also
displays the sentence case of
upper or lower case characters
that are currently active in a
mixed case mode. If only one
character set is available for the
desired region, touching the
character recognition will only
open and close the character
recognition window.
If mixed case character mode is
supported, the last buttons of
character recognition will be upper
and lower case.
One-Shot Search
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 include
both the 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 to 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
may take very long. Because of this,
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.
Search in Process
Touch the Search button, and the
results screen displays with the
activity indicator. There is a
non-selectable List item in the list
that says “Searching” to indicate that
it is in process.
Once the results are found, the correct
list screen will display.
No Results Found
If no results are found from an
entered search term, a pop-up displays
indicating there are no results found.
Touch the OK screen button to return
to the keyboard view.
Results Display
If only a single match is found at the
end of a search, the list is not shown
but the Destination Details view is
shown. Touch Back from the
Destination Details view to go back to
the results list screen. If it was a POI
search, the Continue POI Search
button is available in case that was
not the desired POI.

filter button along the top of the
screen. If there are no particular
results for a selected filter type,
it is indicated in the list.

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 director y 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.
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 on
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

running for two to five minutes, until
the vehicle position updates. Make
sure the vehicle is parked in a location
that is safe and has a clear view of the
sky and away from large obstructions.
If the System Needs
Service
If the navigation system needs ser vice
and the steps listed here have been
followed but there are still problems,
see Problems with Route Guidance 0 87.
Map Data Updates
The map data in the vehicle is the
most up-to-date information available
when the vehicle was produced. The
map data is updated periodically,
provided that the map information
has changed.
For questions about the operation of
the navigation system or the update
process, contact the GM Nav Disc
Center toll-free phone number,
1-877-NAV-DISC (1-877-628-3472) or
go to the center’s website,
www.gmnavdisc.com. If updates are
needed, call the GM Nav Disc Center
or order online.
To order, have the vehicle’s Vehicle
Identification Number (VIN) available
to ensure the correct and most
up-to-date map data for the vehicle is
sent. See “Vehicle Identification
Number (VIN)” in the owner manual.
Database Coverage
Explanations
Coverage areas vary with respect to
the level of map detail available for
any given area. Some areas feature
greater levels of detail than others.
If this happens, it does not mean
there is a problem with the system. As
the map data is updated, more detail
can become available for areas that
previously had limited detail. See MapData Updates 0 87.
Voice recognition allows for
hands-free operation within the
navigation, audio, phone, and weather
applications. This feature can be
started by pressing
wheel or
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 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,
g on the infotainment
g on the steering
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 per formed, like
“Navigation Destination 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 do not work, try saying,
“Navigate to Place of Interest” or
“Navigate to Address” and the system
will do the rest.
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.
1. Press
2. The audio system mutes and the
g on the steering wheel
controls to activate voice
recognition, or touch
infotainment display.
.
If voice recognition is started
from the steering wheel
control, the instrument
cluster displays the selections
and visual dialog content.
.
If voice recognition is started
from the infotainment
display , the selections and
visual dialog content are
displayed on both the
infotainment display and the
instrument cluster display.
3. Wait until after the beep
completes, then clearly speak
one of the commands described
in this section.
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,
press
g again and the 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 Infotainment Displays
While a voice recognition session is
active, there will be corresponding
buttons on screens displayed. Manual
g again.
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
.
Touch the Home screen button.
Touching this button will
terminate the voice recognition
session.
.
Touch or say “Cancel” or “Exit” to
terminate the voice recognition
session and display the screen
from which voice recognition was
initiated.
.
Press
c on the steering wheel
controls to terminate the voice
session and display the screen
from which voice recognition was
initiated.
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
infotainment display for example
commands.
.
A voice recognition system prompt
can be interrupted while it is
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
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,” “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
g again and wait
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 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 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
0 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
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
0 to go to the
pop-up will either display on the
instrument cluster or the
infotainment display. Touch the
Dismiss screen 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 voice
command can be used.

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.
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.
