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, hard

keys 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.

4 Infotainment System

•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

{WARNING

Taking your eyes off the road for

extended periods could cause a

crash resulting in injury or death

to you or others.

To help avoid a crash in which you

or others could be killed:

•Always concentrate on your

driving ﬁrst by keeping your eyes

and mind on the road, and

your hands on the wheel.

•Follow system directions only if

permitted by traffic laws,

controls, and conditions.

•Before using this system, read

the owner’s manual and learn

how it operates.

•Some system controls cannot be

used the when vehicle is moving.

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.

If OK is not selected, all hard keys

except for NAV (Navigation) and

DEST (Destination) can be

accessed. You can also press the

NAV hard key to have this Caution

screen appear.

When getting started, set the

navigation system to your

preference or delete information you

may have entered using various

options.

may not play. The guidelines are

(Supported Sampling rate and

Bit rates will vary based on CD or

DVD Navigation Systems):

•Sampling rate: 8 kHz, 11.025

kHz, 12 kHz, 16 kHz, 22.05 kHz,

24 kHz, 32 kHz, and 44.1 kHz,

48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz,

176.4 kHz, and 192 kHz.

•Bit rates supported: 8, 16, 24,

32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 80, 96,

112, 128, 160, 192, 224, 256,

and 320 kbps.

•ID3 tag information is displayed

by the radio if it is available.

The radio supports ID3 tag

information v1.0 or v1.1. The

radio will display a ﬁlename, song

name, artist name, album

name, and directory name.

•Maximum 32 characters,

including spaces, in a ﬁle

or folder name.

•Maximum number of folders is

253 with a maximum hierarchy

of eight folders.

•Create a folder structure that

makes it easy to ﬁnd songs while

driving. Organize songs by

albums using one folder for each

album. Each folder or album

should contain 18 songs or less.

•It is recommended that there is a

maximum of 192 ﬁles on a disc.

•The ﬁles can be recorded on a

CD-R or CD-RW with a maximum

capacity of 700MB.

•DVD with MP3 are not playable

on this system.

Root Directory

The root directory will be treated as

a folder. If the root directory has

compressed audio ﬁles, the directory

will be displayed as ROOT.

Infotainment System 25

All ﬁles contained directly under the

root directory will be accessed

prior to any root directory folders.

However, playlists (Px) will 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 will

advance 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 will be

located under the root folder.

The next and previous folder

functions will have no function on a

CD that was recorded without

folders or playlists. When displaying

the name of the folder the radio

will display ROOT.

When the CD contains only playlists

and compressed audio ﬁles, but

no folders, all ﬁles will be located

under the root folder. The left

and right arrow buttons will search

playlists (Px) ﬁrst and then go

to the root folder. When the radio

displays the name of the folder

the radio will display ROOT.

Order of Play

Tracks will be played in the following

order:

•Play will begin from the ﬁrst track

in the ﬁrst playlist and will

continue sequentially through all

tracks in each playlist. When

the last track of the last playlist

has been played, play will

continue from the ﬁrst track of

the ﬁrst playlist.

•If the CD does not contain any

playlists, then play will begin

from the ﬁrst track under the root

directory. When all tracks from

the root directory have been

played, play will continue from

ﬁles according to their numerical

listing. After playing the last

track from the last folder, play

will begin again at the ﬁrst track

of the ﬁrst folder or root

directory.

When play enters a new folder, the

display will not automatically

show the new folder name. The new

track name will appear on the

display.

File System and Naming

The song name that will display will

be the song name that is contained

in the ID3 tag. If the song name

is not present in the ID3 tag, then

the radio will display the ﬁle

name without the extension (such

as .mp3) as the track name.

Track names longer than

32 characters or four pages will be

shortened. The display will not

show parts of words on the

last page of text and the extension

of the ﬁlename will not display.

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 of the

United States Department of

Defense. When the vehicle is not

receiving signals from the satellites,

a symbol appears on the map

screen. Refer to Navigation Symbols

on page 47.

This system may not be available or

interferences may occur if:

•Signals are obstructed by tall

buildings, trees, large trucks,

or a tunnel.

•Objects that are placed on top of

or near the instrument panel.

•Satellites are being repaired or

improved.

•After-market glass tinting has

been applied to the vehicle’s

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.

Infotainment System 77

For more information if the GPS is

not functioning properly, see If

the System Needs Service

on page 79 and Problems with

Route Guidance on page 78.

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 driving on slippery

road surfaces such as in sand,

gravel, and/or snow.

•The vehicle is traveling on

winding roads.

•The vehicle is 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 traveling at high

speed.

•The vehicle changes directions

more than once, or when the

vehicle is turning on a turn table

in a parking lot.

•The vehicle is entering and/or

exiting a parking lot, garage,

or a lot with a roof.

•The GPS signal is not received.

•A roof carrier is installed on

your vehicle.

•The vehicle is being driven with

tire chains.

•The tires are replaced.

•The tire pressure for your tires is

incorrect.

•The tires are worn.

•The ﬁrst time the map DVD is

inserted.

•The battery is disconnected for

several days.

•The vehicle is driving in heavy

traffic where driving is at low

speeds, and the vehicle is

stopped and started repeatedly.

If problems are experienced with the

navigation system, see your

dealer.

Problems with Route

Guidance

Inappropriate route guidance may

occur under one or more of the

following conditions:

•You have not turned onto the

road indicated.

•Route guidance may not be

available when using automatic

rerouting for the next right or

left turn.

78 Infotainment System

•The route may not be changed

when using automatic rerouting.

•There is no route guidance when

turning at an intersection.

•Plural names of places may be

announced occasionally.

•It may take a long time to

operate automatic rerouting

during high-speed driving.

•Automatic rerouting may display

a route returning to the set

waypoint if you are heading for a

destination without passing

through a set waypoint.

•The route prohibits the entry of a

vehicle due to a regulation by

time or season or any other

regulation which may be given.

•Some routes may not be

searched.

•The route to the destination may

not be shown if there are new

roads, if roads have recently

changed, or if certain roads are

not listed on the map DVD.

See Ordering Map DVDs

on page 79.

To recalibrate the vehicle’s position

on the map, see your dealer.

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 toll-free phone number,

1-877-NAV-DISC (1-877-628-3472)

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.

Infotainment System 79

After receiving the updated disc,

replace the old disc in the navigation

system. See “Installing the DVD

Map Disc” and “Ejecting the

DVD Map Disc” under Maps on

page 44. 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 79 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 Disc” under

Maps on page 44. 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 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.

2. Clearly state one of the

commands listed on the following

pages.

Helpful Hints for Stating

Commands

•When a multiple command is

available, choose the command

that best works for you.

•Words that are in brackets are

optional. For example, for the

command Radio [band] [select]

FM, stating Radio FM or

Radio select FM are both valid

commands.

•When the system recognizes the

command the system will:

− either perform the function

− ask you to conﬁrm your choice

by clearly stating “yes or no”

− issue an error message such

as “System does not

recognize this command” or

direct you to “Please start

speaking after the beep”

•If the system is not yet ready, the

system may state “System is

checking the disc. Please wait.”

80 Infotainment System

•To cancel a command or if the

system response does not

match your verbal command,

press and hold the talk symbol

button. The system will reply,

“System will cancel the

voice recognition”.

•If you experience difficulty with

the system recognizing a

command, try saying it more

softly, and wait for a few seconds

after the beep, or you may just

try saying it again.

•Background noise may cause

voice commands to be

misunderstood, including airﬂow

noise from wind.

•To use the voice recognition

system, the map DVD must

be loaded.

This system is able to recognize

commands in three different

languages. The system will only

recognize commands based on the

language selected from the

Driver Information Center (DIC).

(voice tag), navigation select

[destination] (voice tag): These

commands instruct the system

to select a destination saved under

the voice tag you have stored.

When a destination is requested

using a voice tag, the system

will state, “Press or say cancel if not

correct”. To cancel this voice tag

destination, using voice recognition,

push and hold the SRCE button

on the steering wheel until you hear

a beep, then say “cancel”.

Canceling voice tag destination by

voice recognition, must be done

within ﬁve seconds after the

voice prompt.

route, the system will automatically

create the voice tag destination

as the ﬁnal destination. If you are

currently driving on a route, the

system will automatically create the

voice tag destination as a

waypoint. Up to three waypoints can

be created.

Storing Voice Tags
