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
Black plate (23,1)
Cadillac CUE Infotainment System - 2013 - CRC 2nd Edition - 5/31/12
Infotainment System 23
lines interfere with radio reception.
When this happens, try reducing the
treble on the radio.
SiriusXM® Satellite Radio
Service
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.
Notice: 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.
Notice: 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,
SiriusXM® Satellite Radio, 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.

Special Character List
The following characters have
special characters beneath them:
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. Press the
search icon to start the search.
For example:
Address: 100 Main Center
Crawford, State/Province (if
needed)
Road Name: Main Rd
Intersection: North Square
West Road Standish State/
Province
Freeway: N-94
.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.
Black plate (55,1)
Cadillac CUE Infotainment System - 2013 - CRC 2nd Edition - 5/31/12
Infotainment System 55
If a destination address or location
being entered is outside of the
country, the country abbreviation
must be added after the address.
For example, if the current vehicle
location is in Detroit MI and the
destination is in Windsor, the correct
input would be Windsor ON CAN.
For Mexican addresses, the
abbreviation would be MEX and
Puerto Rico is PR.
Intersection: If looking for an
intersection, type in the two street
names and optionally the city and
state/province of the intersection.
On-Ramp: If looking for the closest
on-ramp as a destination, enter a
highway name. The direction is not
required but can be specified. The
system will search for the closest
on-ramp.
Also available is the Exit-Ramp. For
example, N-94 Exit 42.
The keyboard can utilize an
autocomplete function. Depending
on the application, autocomplete
matches entries that have been
previously typed or are stored in a
Recent Destinations list.
1. After a character has been
typed, the system is able to start
displaying matches that begin
with that character. The matches
continually become more refined
as additional characters are
entered.
2. If there are multiple matches for
what has been entered, the first
result alphabetically will be
shown.
When there are multiple
matches, a dropdown arrow is
shown after the autocomplete
text. This dropdown displays the
entire list of matches. Press the
appropriate match without
having to enter more text.
3. If autocomplete does not show
the results needed, press the
delete screen button to clear the
autocomplete from the entered
field.
If there are no matches, a
pop-up displays in response to
show how the system
understood the entered text and
attempts to show how the text
could be entered to help find the
destination.

Multiple Matches
.If the search results in multiple
matches, a list of matches is
shown.
.Address search results are
grouped by result type, in the
order of Full Addresses, States,
Cities, Intersections, and
Streets. If no results are found in
a particular group, that group is
not shown. 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
that the highest confidence
result will be at the top.
.Address searches can be sorted
by Confidence, Distance,
or Alphabetical Order. The
default is sorting by Confidence.
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.
An example is, when entering in an
address, the system attempts to do
a full match on the entire string. If it
does not find a match, the house
number is then considered an
optional term and the system
attempts to find the street and city
name. The prefix and suffix of street
names are also treated as optional
terms. The search is first done by
trying to match the prefix and/or
suffix. If there is no match found,
these terms are removed from the
search to make the search more
generic.

position of the vehicle.
The GPS shows the current position
of the vehicle using signals sent by
GPS Satellites. When the vehicle is
not receiving signals from the
satellites, a symbol appears on the
map screen. See Navigation
Symbols on page 50.
This system might not be available
or interference can occur if any of
the following are true:
.Signals are obstructed by tall
buildings, trees, large trucks,
or a tunnel.
.Satellites are being repaired or
improved.
For more information if the GPS is
not functioning properly, see
Problems with Route Guidance on
page 68 and If the System Needs
Service on page 69.
Vehicle Positioning
At times, the position of the vehicle
on the map could 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 sand,
gravel, or snow.
.The vehicle is traveling on
winding roads or long straight
roads.
.The vehicle is approaching a tall
building or a large vehicle.
.The surface streets run parallel
to a freeway.
.The vehicle has 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 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 the
vehicle.
.Tire chains have been installed.
.The tires are replaced or worn.
.The tire pressure for the tires is
incorrect.
.This is the first navigation use
after the map data is updated.
.The 12-volt battery is

.The vehicle is driving in heavy
traffic where driving is at low
speeds, and the vehicle is
stopped and started repeatedly.
Problems with Route
Guidance
Inappropriate route guidance can
occur under one or more of the
following conditions:
.The turn was not made on the
road indicated.
.Route guidance might not be
available when using automatic
rerouting for the next right or
left turn.
.The route might not be changed
when using automatic rerouting.
.There is no route guidance when
turning at an intersection.
.Plural names of places might be
announced occasionally.
.It could take a long time to
operate automatic rerouting
during high-speed driving.
.Automatic rerouting might
display a route returning to the
set waypoint if 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 might not be
searched.
.The route to the destination
might not be shown if there are
new roads, if roads have
recently changed, or if certain
roads are not listed in the map
data. See Maps on page 50.
To recalibrate the vehicle's position
on the map, park with the vehicle
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
obstruction.

70 Infotainment System
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 gbutton on the steering wheel
or the voice recognition icon on the
touchscreen display.
However, not all features within
these areas are supported by voice
commands. Generally, only complex
tasks which 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.
In general there are flexible ways to
speak commands for completing the
tasks. Most of them, except
destination entry and voice keypad,
can be completed in a single
command. If the task takes more
than one command to complete, the
first command would be to indicate
the kind of task that is to be
performed, like “Navigation
Destination Entry.”The system will
reply prompting dialog to help speak
the necessary information. For
example, if a destination for route
guidance is needed, say
“Navigation”or “Destination Entry.”
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. Initialization takes place
once the ignition is turned on. This
may take a few moments.
1. Press gon the steering wheel
control to activate voice
recognition, or press the voice
recognition icon on the
infotainment touchscreen on the
center stack.
.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 touchscreen
on the center stack, the lists
and controls are verbal and
the visual displays through
the center stack.
2. The audio system mutes and the
system plays a prompt followed
by a beep.
3. Wait until after the beep
completes, then clearly speak
one of the commands described
in this section.
Black plate (71,1)
Cadillac CUE Infotainment System - 2013 - CRC 2nd Edition - 5/31/12
Infotainment System 71
Press gto interrupt any voice
recognition. This will terminate
the prompt. The beep is heard
immediately, and a command
can be stated without having
to wait.
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
.Press the Home screen button.
Pressing this button will
terminate the voice recognition
session and display the Home
Page screen.
.Press or say “Cancel”or “Exit”to
terminate the voice recognition
session and display the screen
from which voice recognition
was initiated.
.Press con the steering wheel
controls. This will terminate the
voice session if the session was
started by a press of the voice
recognition touchscreen, and will
display the Home Page screen.
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 screen
display for commands.
.Voice recognition can be
interrupted during a prompt by
pressing gagain.
For example, if the prompt
seems to be taking too long to
finish, or if what is being
Black plate (72,1)
Cadillac CUE Infotainment System - 2013 - CRC 2nd Edition - 5/31/12
72 Infotainment System
prompted causes a need for an
immediate reply, press gagain
and 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 David 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 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.”
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 David 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 or press the Back
button to try again.”
If manual selection takes more than
15 seconds, the session terminates
and prompts that it has timed out.
Black plate (73,1)
Cadillac CUE Infotainment System - 2013 - CRC 2nd Edition - 5/31/12
Infotainment System 73
The screen returns back to the
screen where voice recognition was
initiated.
The Back Command
Say “Back”or press the Back button
to go to the 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 pop-up will either display on
the instrument cluster or the
infotainment touchscreen. Press the
Dismiss button to make the pop-up
go away.
Pressing gwhile the help prompt is
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.
Black plate (76,1)
Cadillac CUE Infotainment System - 2013 - CRC 2nd Edition - 5/31/12
76 Infotainment System
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.
Voice Recognition for
