XM™ Satellite Radio Service
XM™ Satellite Radio Service gives digital radio
reception from coast-to-coast in the 48 contiguous
United States, and in Canada. Just as with FM,
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 XM signal for a period of time. The
radio may display NO XM SIGNAL to indicate
interference.
Cellular Phone Usage
Cellular phone usage may cause interference with
your vehicle’s radio. This interference may
occur when making or receiving phone calls,
charging the phone’s battery, or simply having the
phone on. This interference is an increased
level of static while listening to the radio. If static
is received while listening to the radio, unplug
the cellular phone and turn it off.
Care of Your CDs
Handle CDs carefully. Store them 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
CD is damaged, such as cracked, broken,
or scratched, the CD will not play properly or not
at all. If the surface of a CD 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.
Do not touch the bottom side of a CD while
handling it; this could damage the surface. Pick up
CDs by grasping the outer edges or the edge of
the hole and the outer edge.

OnStar®System
When using the OnStar®system, the audio
system will be muted and the navigation voice
prompts will be disabled during the call. The
volume of the OnStar
®call can be adjusted by
using the steering wheel volume controls.
SeeOnStar
®System on page 107for more
information.
Global Positioning System (GPS)
The Navigation System determines the position of
your vehicle by using satellite signals, various
vehicle signals, and map data.
At times, other interferences such as the satellite
condition, road conguration, the condition of
the vehicle and/or other circumstances can
interfere with the Navigation’s ability to determine
the accurate position of the vehicle.
The GPS shows the current position of your
vehicle using signals sent by the GPS Satellites of
the United States Department of Defense.
When your vehicle is not receiving signals from
the satellites, a symbol will appear on the
map screen. Refer toSymbols on page 275.This system may not be available or interference
may occur if the following happens:
Signal obstructions caused by tall buildings,
large trucks, tunnels,
objects located on top of the instrument panel,
satellites will not send signals if they are
being repaired or improved,
after-market glass tinting has been applied to
the vehicle’s windows.
Notice:Do not apply after-market glass tinting
to the vehicle’s windows. Glass tinting will
interfere with the system’s ability to receive
GPS signals and cause the system to
malfunction. You might have to replace the
window to correct the problem. This would not
be covered by your warranty.
For more information if you are experiencing a
problem, seeIf the System Needs Service
on page 283andProblems with Route Guidance
on page 283.
281

Problems with Route Guidance
Inappropriate route guidance may occur under one
or more of the following conditions:
You have not turned onto the road indicated.
Route guidance may not be available
when using automatic rerouting for the next
right or left turn.
The route may not be changed when using
automatic rerouting.
There is no route guidance when turning at an
intersection.
Plural names of places may be announced
occasionally.
It may take a long time to operate automatic
rerouting during high-speed driving.
Automatic rerouting may display a route
returning to the set waypoint if you are 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 may not be searched.
The route to the destination may not be
shown if there are new roads, if roads
have recently changed, or if certain roads are
not listed on the map DVD. SeeOrdering
Map DVDs on page 284.
To recalibrate the vehicle’s position on the map,
see your dealer.
If the System Needs Service
If your system needs service and you have
followed the steps listed here and still are
experiencing problems, see your dealer for
assistance.
283

If you are tuned to a station broadcasting RDS
information, the station’s Program Service (PS)
and Program Type (PTY) will replace the station’s
frequency on the status line at the top of the
display. After about ve seconds, if available, the
PTY will be replaced on the display by the station’s
PTY name. The PTY and PTY name may be the
same or different.
If the audio system is tuned to a station that is not
broadcasting RDS information, the station’s
frequency will remain on the display. While RDS is
on, the audio system will search for a stronger
station in the network if a station gets too weak for
listening.
The RDS feature relies upon receiving specic
information from RDS stations. These features will
only work when RDS information is available.TA (Traffic):Touch TA to receive traffic
announcements. The audio system will turn on the
TA display. TA will appear on the display if the
current station broadcasts traffic announcements.
You may also receive traffic announcements
from stations in the network related to the current
station. If the current station does not broadcast
traffic announcements, the audio system will seek
to a station which will. When the audio system
nds a station which broadcasts traffic
announcements, it will stop. If no station is found,
TA will turn off.
While a traffic announcement plays, the audio
system uses TA volume. To increase TA volume,
touch the VOL button on your steering wheel
or use the VOL up or down buttons during
the announcement. See “Voice Guidance Volume
Settings” underSetup Menu on page 243for
more information.
