Order of Play
Tracks recorded to the CD-R or
CD-RW disc are played in the
following order:
Play begins from the rst track in
the rst playlist and continues
sequentially through all tracks in
each playlist. When the last
track of the last playlist has
played, play continues from the
rst track of the rst playlist.
Play begins from the rst track in
the rst folder and continues
sequentially through all tracks in
each folder. When the last
track of the last folder has played,
play continues from the rst
track of the rst folder.
When play enters a new folder, the
display does not automatically
show the new folder name unless
the folder mode has been chosen as
the default display. The new track
name displays.File System and Naming
The song name that is displayed is
the song name that is contained
in the ID3 tag. If the song name is
not present in the ID3 tag, then
the radio displays the le name
without the extension (such as .mp3)
as the track name.
Track names longer than
32 characters or four pages are
shortened. Parts of words on the last
page of text and the extension of
the lename displays.
Preprogrammed Playlists
Preprogrammed playlists that
were created using WinAmp™,
MusicMatch™, or Real Jukebox™
software can be accessed, however,
they cannot be edited using the
radio. These playlists are treated as
special folders containing
compressed audio song les.Playing an MP3/WMA
(In Either the DVD or CD Slot)
Insert a CD-R or CD-RW disc
partway into either the top or bottom
slot, label side up. The player
pulls it in, and the CD-R or CD-RW
should begin playing.
Depending on the format of the
disc, a softkey menu appears and
allows navigation of the disc.
The menu reads left to right as RDM
(Randomize song play order), a
Folder icon with left and right arrows
(to move up or down through
available folders), a PL tag if the
disc has a Playlist available, and a
Music Navigator tag. If a Playlist
tag is shown, toggling this key brings
up a Folder softkey only or the
menu as previously described.
If the ignition or radio is turned off
with a CD-R or CD-RW disc in the
player it stays in the player. When
the ignition or radio is turned back
on, the CD-R or CD-RW starts to
play where it stopped, if it was the
last selected audio source.

Customer Satisfaction
Procedure
Your satisfaction and goodwill are
important to your dealer and to GMC.
Normally, any concerns with the
sales transaction or the operation
of the vehicle will be resolved by
the dealer’s sales or service
departments. Sometimes, however,
despite the best intentions of all
concerned, misunderstandings can
occur. If your concern has not been
resolved to your satisfaction, the
following steps should be taken:
STEP ONE:Discuss your concern
with a member of dealership
management. Normally, concerns
can be quickly resolved at that level.
If the matter has already been
reviewed with the sales, service
or parts manager, contact the owner
of the dealership or the general
manager.
