playing or all tracks from the CD.
Press the softkey under the desired
record option.
The last radio station that was on
begins playing and a status bar
appears on the top of the display
when the recording process starts.
The status bar disappears when the
process has ended. The recorded
songs are now available.
Copy‐Protected CD(s)

Ejecting a CD or Turning Off the
Vehicle While Recording
If the CD is ejected or the vehicle is
turned off before the recording
process has completed, tracks that
have been completely recorded are
stored to the HDD. Incomplete
tracks are discarded. Re-recording Audio CDs
If a CD has already been recorded,
the radio system will not record the
contents again. If a partially
recorded CD is selected for
recording, only those songs that are
not already on the HDD will be
recorded.
Audio CD Song, Artist, Album,
and Genre Information
Radios with HDD contain a
Gracenote
®Database that the radio
uses to determine the song, artist,
album, and genre information. The
Gracenote Database allows the
radio to record an audio CD to the
HDD and store the content using
song, artist, album, and genre
information.
Newly released audio CDs as well
as some less common audio CDs
may not be found in the Gracenote
Database stored on the HDD.
If these audio CDs contain CD-text,
the radio will use the CD-text
information when recording the
content to the HDD. If an audio CD

Black plate (29,1)Cadillac CTS/CTS-V Owner Manual (Include Mex) - 2012
Infotainment System 7-29
is not found in the Gracenote
Database and it does not have
CD-text information, the radio will
record the audio CD with all song,
artist, album and genre names as
“NO INFO.”
Songs recorded with“NO INFO”to
the HDD will be hard to sort,
identify, and select. To make HDD
navigation easier, CDs with “NO
INFO” can first be converted to MP3
format with Tag information on a
home computer and then recorded
to the HDD from an MP3 disc or
USB device.
Occasionally, the radio may find
more than one match in the
Gracenote Database for an audio
CD that has been recorded. If this
happens, the radio will display
“Multi‐Hit” for the name information
when the songs are selected from
the HDD. With a “Multi‐Hit”song
playing, press the button below the
EDIT tab to bring up the list of
multiple names found in the
Gracenote Database. Use the MENU/SELECT knob to highlight
and select the correct name for the
“Multi‐Hit”
recorded CD.
The Gracenote Database stored on
the HDD can be updated so that it
includes name information for more
recently released audio CDs. See
your dealer for more information on
Gracenote Database updates for the
HDD radio.
Recording from MP3/WMA
Discs or USB
REC (Record): Press to start
recording tracks from an MP3/WMA
disc or a USB device (excluding
iPods) while it is playing. The radio

desired record option.
The last radio station that was on

the shift lever button before shifting
from P (Park) when the ignition key
is in ON/RUN. If you cannot shift out
of P (Park), ease pressure on the
shift lever and push the shift lever
all the way into P (Park) as you
maintain brake application. Then
press the shift lever button and
move the shift lever into another
gear. SeeShifting out of Park on
page 9‑24.
Notice: Shifting to R (Reverse)
while the vehicle is moving
forward could damage the
transmission. The repairs would
not be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Shift to R (Reverse) only
after the vehicle is stopped.
R (Reverse): Use this gear to
back up.
At low vehicle speeds, R (Reverse)
can be used to rock the vehicle
back and forth to get out of snow,
ice, or sand without damaging your
transmission. See If the Vehicle Is
Stuck on page 9‑11 for additional
information. N (Neutral):
In this position, the
engine does not connect with the
wheels. To restart when the vehicle
is already moving, use N (Neutral)
only. You can also use N (Neutral)
when the vehicle is being towed.
{WARNING
Shifting into a drive gear while the
engine is running at high speed is
dangerous. Unless your foot is
firmly on the brake pedal, the
vehicle could move very rapidly.
You could lose control and hit
people or objects. Do not shift
into a drive gear while the engine
is running at high speed.
Notice: Shifting out of P (Park) or
N (Neutral) with the engine
running at high speed may
damage the transmission. The
repairs would not be covered by
the vehicle warranty. Be sure the
engine is not running at high
speed when shifting the vehicle. D (Drive):
This position is for
normal driving. It provides the best
fuel economy. If you need more
power for passing, and you are:
.Going less than 55 km/h
(35 mph), push the accelerator
pedal about halfway down.
.Going about 55 km/h (35 mph) or
more, push the accelerator all
the way down.
The transmission will shift down
to a lower gear and have more
power.
Downshifting the transmission in
slippery road conditions could result
in skidding; see “Skidding”under
Loss of Control on page 9‑5
While in D (Drive), the CTS‐V
vehicle's first forward gear
automatic shift after starting the
vehicle will be from 1 (First).
Afterwards, the CTS‐V vehicles will
always start in 2 (Second) gear.
While in M (Manual Mode), for
increased performance, the vehicle
will start in 1 (First) gear.

following order: driver side front tire,
passenger side front tire, passenger
side rear tire, and driver side rear.
See your dealer for service or to
purchase a relearn tool.
There are two minutes to match
the first tire/wheel position, and
five minutes overall to match all
four tire/wheel positions. If it takes
longer, the matching process stops
and must be restarted.
The TPMS matching process is:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN withthe engine off.
3. Press the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter's lock and
unlock buttons at the same time
for approximately five seconds.

and Tire Learning Active
message displays on the DIC
screen. 4. Start with the driver side
front tire.
5. Place the relearn tool against the tire sidewall, near the valve
stem. Then press the button to
activate the TPMS sensor.
A horn chirp confirms that the
sensor identification code has
been matched to this tire and
wheel position.
6. Proceed to the passenger side front tire, and repeat the
procedure in Step 5.
7. Proceed to the passenger side rear tire, and repeat the
procedure in Step 5.
8. Proceed to the driver side rear tire, and repeat the procedure in
Step 5. After hearing the
confirming horn chirp, for the
driver side rear tire, the horn
sounds two more times to signal
the tire learning mode is no
longer active.
9. Turn the ignition to LOCK/OFF. 10. Set all four tires to the
recommended air pressure
level as indicated on the tire
and loading information label.
Tire Inspection
We recommend that the tires,
including the spare tire, if the
vehicle has one, be inspected
for signs of wear or damage at
least once a month.
Replace the tire if:
.The indicators at three or
more places around the tire
can be seen.
.There is cord or fabric
showing through the tire's
rubber.
.The tread or sidewall is
cracked, cut, or snagged
deep enough to show cord or
fabric.
.The tire has a bump, bulge,
or split.
