For more information if the GPS is not
functioning properly, see Problems with
Route Guidance 0172 and
If the System Needs Service 0173.
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

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 are installed on the vehicle.
.The tires are replaced or worn.
.The tire pressure for the tires is incorrect.

map data is updated.
.The 12-volt battery has been disconnected
for several days.
.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
0 166.
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

Cadillac Escalade Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-

Infotainment System 173
a location that is safe and has a clear view
of the sky and away from large
obstructions.
If the System Needs Service
If the navigation system needs service, see
your dealer.
Map Data Updates
The map data in the vehicle is the most
up-to-date information available when the
vehicle was produced.
See www.gmnavdisc.com for details on
ordering, purchasing, and installing a new or
replacement SD card. Features are subject to
change. For more information on this
feature, see my.cadillac.com/learn.
Database Coverage Explanations
Coverage areas vary with respect to the
level of map detail available for any given
area. Some areas feature greater levels of
detail than others. If this happens, it does
not mean there is a problem with the
system. As the map data is updated, more
detail can become available for areas that
previously had limited detail. SeeMap Data
Updates 0173.
Voice Recognition
If equipped, voice recognition allows for
hands-free operation within the navigation,
audio, and phone. This feature can be
started by pressing
gon the steering
wheel.
However, not all features within these areas
are supported by voice commands.
Generally, only complex tasks that require
multiple manual interactions to complete
are supported by voice commands.
For example, tasks that take more than one
or two touches, such as 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 touching one or two options,
and are not supported by voice commands.
In general there are flexible ways to speak
commands for completing the tasks.
If your language supports it, try stating a
one-shot command, such as “Directions to
address province>.” Do not include the ZIP code
while stating the address during the
command. Another example of a one-shot Destination Entry command is,
“Directions to
Place of Interest at .” If these
commands do not work, try saying, “Take
me to Place of Interest” or“Find address”
and the system will walk you through by
asking additional questions.
Hybrid Speech Recognition
If equipped, this feature helps distinguish
words by using Internet-based information
along with the system’s voice recognition
database. This allows you to speak more
naturally when using voice recognition.
Using Voice Recognition
Voice recognition becomes available once
the system has been initialized. This begins
when the ignition is turned on. Initialization
may take a few moments.
1. Press
gon the steering wheel controls
to activate voice recognition.
2. The audio system mutes and the system plays a prompt.
3. Clearly speak one of the commands described in this section.
A voice recognition system prompt can
be interrupted while it is playing by
pressing
gagain.

Cadillac Escalade Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-
16417396) - 2023 - CRC - 5/9/22
Infotainment System 175
The system responds by requesting more
details. For other POIs, say the name of a
category like“Restaurants,” “Shopping
Malls,” or“Hospitals.”
.Navigating to a destination outside of the
current country takes more than one
command. The first command is to tell
the system where the navigation will take
place, such as an Address, Intersection,
POI, or Contact. If Address or Intersection
is selected, the second command is to
say, “Change Country.” Once the system
responds, say the country before saying
the rest of the address and/or
intersection.
If POI is asked for, say “Change Location,”
then “Change Country.”
Direct commands might be more clearly
understood by the system. An example of a
direct command would be “Call .”
Examples of these direct commands are
displayed on most of the screens while a
voice session is active. If “Phone”or“Phone
Commands,” is spoken, the system
understands that a phone call is requested
and will respond with questions until
enough details are gathered to make a call. If a cell phone number has been saved with
a name and a place, the direct command
should include both, for example
“Call
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.
When a display 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
displays. Scrolling or flinging can be used to
help display other entries from the list.
Manually scrolling or paging the list on a
display during a voice recognition session
suspends the current voice recognition event
and plays the prompt “Please select
manually or touch the Back icon on the
infotainment display to try again.”
If manual selection takes more than
15 seconds, the session terminates and
prompts that it has timed out. The display
returns to the display where voice
recognition was initiated. The Back Command
Say
“Back” or touch the Back icon on the
infotainment display to go to the
previous menu.
If in voice recognition, and “Back”is spoken
all the way back to the starting display, and
then “Back” is spoken one more time, the
voice recognition session will cancel.
Help
Say “Help” on any voice recognition display
and the help prompt for the display is
played.
Voice Recognition for the Radio
If browsing the audio sources when voice is
touched, the voice recognition commands
for AM, FM, and SiriusXM (if equipped) are
available.
“Switch to AM” :Switch bands to AM and
tune to the last AM radio station.
“Switch to FM” :Switch bands to FM and
tune to the last FM radio station.
“Switch to SXM” :Switch bands to SiriusXM
and tune to the last SiriusXM channel.
“Tune to AM” :Tune to
the radio station whose frequency is
identified in the command (like “nine fifty”).
