The analog clock is on the
instrument panel above the radio.
The clock is not connected with any
other vehicle system and runs by
itself. To adjust the clock:
1. Locate the adjustment buttons directly below the clock.
2. Push and release the right adjustment button to move the
clock hands forward or the left
adjustment button to make the
clock hands go backward.
Holding either button down will
cause the clock to advance

3. Push and release either button to adjust the time by one minute
increments.
Power Outlets
Accessory power outlets can be
used to plug in electrical equipment,
such as a cell phone or MP3 player. There are three accessory power
outlets. The power outlets below the
climate control system, inside the
center console storage bin, and on
the rear of the center console are
powered while the vehicle is in ON/
RUN, START or ACC/ACCESSORY
mode, or until the driver door is
opened within 10 minutes of turning
off the vehicle.
On the CTS Wagon there is an
additional accessory power outlet
near the rear cargo net that is
powered at all times.
Remove the cover to access and
replace when not in use.
Notice:
Leaving electrical
equipment plugged in for an
extended period of time while the
vehicle is off will drain the
battery. Always unplug electrical
equipment when not in use and
do not plug in equipment that
exceeds the maximum 20 ampere
rating.

7-16 Infotainment System
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.
Audio Players
CD Player
The infotainment system's CD
player can play audio CDs and
MP3 CDs.
CDs that are 8 cm (3 in) in diameter
will not work in the CD player.
Care of CDs
If playing a CD, the sound quality
can be reduced due to disc quality,
the method of recording, the quality
of the music that has been
recorded, and the way the disc has
been handled. Handle discs
carefully. Store CDs in their original
cases or other protective cases and
away from direct sunlight and dust.
The CD player scans the bottom
surface of the disc. If the surface of
a disc is damaged, such as cracked,
broken, or scratched, the disc may
not play properly or not at all. Do
not touch the bottom side of a disc
while handling it; this could damage the surface. Pick up discs by
grasping the outer edges or the
edge of the hole and the outer edge.
If the surface of a disc 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.
Care of the CD Player
Do not add a label to a disc; it could
get caught in the CD player. If a
label is needed, label the top of the
recorded disc with a marking pen.
The use of disc lens cleaners for
discs is not advised, due to the risk
of contaminating the lens of the disc
optics with lubricants internal to the
CD player mechanism.
Notice:
If a label is added to a
CD, more than one CD is inserted
into the slot at a time, or an
attempt is made to play scratched
or damaged CDs, the CD player
could be damaged. While using

Driving and Operating 9-21
Notice:If you add electrical parts
or accessories, you could change
the way the engine operates. Any
resulting damage would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
See Add-On Electrical Equipment
on page 9‑57.
Retained Accessory
Power (RAP)
These vehicle accessories can be
used for up to 10 minutes after the
engine is turned off:
.Audio System
.Power Windows
.Sunroof (if equipped)
Power to the audio system will work
up to 10 minutes or until the driver
door is opened. Power to the
windows or sunroof will work up to
10 minutes or until any door is
opened. For an additional
10 minutes of operation, close all
the doors and turn the key to ON/
RUN and then back to LOCK/OFF.
Engine Coolant Heater
Vehicles with the engine coolant
heater can use this option in cold
weather conditions at or below
−18°C (0°F) for easier starting and
better fuel economy during engine
warm-up. Plug in the coolant heater
at least four hours before starting
your vehicle. An internal thermostat
in the plug-end of the cord may exist
which will prevent engine coolant
heater operation at temperatures
above −18°C (0°F).
To Use the Engine Coolant
Heater
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Open the hood and unwrap the
electrical cord. The cord is near
the driver side strut tower.
Remove the plastic cap to
access the plug.
3. Plug it into a normal, grounded 110-volt AC outlet.
{WARNING
Plugging the cord into an
ungrounded outlet could cause an
electrical shock. Also, the wrong
kind of extension cord could
overheat and cause a fire. You
could be seriously injured. Plug
the cord into a properly grounded
three-prong 110-volt AC outlet.
If the cord will not reach, use a
heavy-duty three-prong extension
cord rated for at least 15 amps.
4. Before starting the engine, be sure to unplug and store the
cord as it was before to keep it
away from moving engine parts.
If you do not, it could be
damaged.
Contact your dealer for information
on how long to use the heater in
your particular area.
