Introduction
Read the following pages to become
familiar with the features.
{Warning
Taking your eyes off the road for
too long or too often while using
any infotainment feature can cause
a crash. You or others could be
injured or killed. Do not give
extended attention to infotainment
tasks while driving. Limit your
glances at the vehicle displays and
focus your attention on driving. Use
voice commands whenever possible.
The infotainment system has built-in
features intended to help avoid
distraction by disabling some features
when driving. These features may gray
out when they are unavailable. Many
infotainment features are also
available through the instrument
cluster and steering wheel controls.

INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM 171
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 lines
interfere with radio reception. When
this happens, try reducing the treble
on the radio.
SiriusXM Satellite Radio Service
If equipped, 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.
Some cellular services may interfere
with SXM reception causing loss of
signal.
Mobile Device Usage
Mobile device usage, such as making
or receiving calls, charging, or just
having the mobile device on may
cause static interference in the radio.
Unplug the mobile device or turn it
off if this happens.
Multi-Band Antenna
The roof antenna may be used for
radio, navigation, and OnStar,
depending on the equipped options.
Keep clear of obstructions for clear
reception. If the vehicle has a sunroof,
and it is open, reception can also be
affected.
Audio Players
Avoiding Untrusted Media
Devices
When using media devices such as SD
cards, USB devices, and mobile
devices, consider the source.
Untrusted media devices could
contain files that affect systemoperation or performance. Avoid use if
the content or origin cannot be
trusted.
USB Port
Audio stored on a USB device may be
listened to.
The vehicle may be equipped with two
USB ports in the center console under
the armrest and another two on the
center stack. These ports are for data
and charging. There may also be two
USB ports at the rear of the center
console and a USB port on each side
of the third row seats for
charging only.
Caution
To avoid vehicle damage, unplug all
accessories and disconnect all
accessory cables from the vehicle
when not in use. Accessory cables
left plugged into the vehicle,
unconnected to a device, could be
damaged or cause an electrical
short if the unconnected end comes
