9-52 Driving and Operating
{Warning
Using a charge level that exceeds
the electrical circuit or electrical
outlet capacity may start a fire or
damage the electrical circuit. Use
the lowest charge level until a
qualified electrician inspects your
electrical circuit capacity. Use the
lowest charge level if the
electrical circuit or electrical outlet
capacity is not known.
Utility Interruption of
Charging
For participating customers using
AC charging, this vehicle will
respond to remote requests via
OnStar to limit or completely block
electrical power grid usage for brief
time periods. A utility interruption of
charging may increase AC vehicle
charge times, but will not affect DC
charge times.When electrical grid power is
completely blocked, the vehicle will
delay charging until the utility
interruption has expired. The vehicle
should be left plugged in so that,
when the utility interruption expires,
the vehicle can automatically begin
charging.
Changing the charge mode to
Immediate or performing a delayed
charging override will not disable a
utility interruption.
A pop-up will appear in the center
stack display during the key cycle
following any utility interruption. See
“Charging Override/Interruption
Pop-up”
underProgrammable
Charging on page 5-28.
Text will be displayed on the
instrument cluster indicating that a
utility interruption has occurred. See
Instrument Cluster on page 5-8.

14-8 OnStar
Potential Issues
OnStar cannot perform Remote
Door Unlock or Stolen Vehicle
Assistance after the vehicle has
been off continuously for five days.
After five days, OnStar can contact
Roadside Assistance and a
locksmith to help gain access to the
vehicle.
Global Positioning
System (GPS)
.Obstruction of the GPS can
occur in a large city with tall
buildings; in parking garages;
around airports; in tunnels,
underpasses; or in an area with
very dense trees. If GPS signals
are not available, the OnStar
system should still operate to
call OnStar. However, OnStar
could have difficulty identifying
the exact location.
.In emergency situations, OnStar
can use the last stored GPS
location to send to emergency
responders.A temporary loss of GPS can cause
loss of the ability to send a
Turn-by-Turn Navigation route. The
Advisor may give a verbal route or
may ask for a call back after the
vehicle is driven into an open area.
Cellular and GPS Antennas
Do not place items over or near the
antenna to prevent blocking cellular
and GPS signal reception. Cellular
reception is required for OnStar to
send remote signals to the vehicle.
Unable to Connect to OnStar
Message
If there is limited cellular coverage
or the cellular network has reached
maximum capacity, this message
may come on. Press
Qto try the
call again or try again after driving a
few miles into another cellular area.
Vehicle and Power Issues
OnStar services require a vehicle
electrical system, wireless service,
and GPS satellite technologies to be
available and operating for features to function properly. These systems
may not operate if the battery is
discharged or disconnected.
Add-on Electrical Equipment
The OnStar system is integrated
into the electrical architecture of the
vehicle. Do not add any electrical
equipment. See
Add-On Electrical
Equipment on page 9-57. Added
electrical equipment may interfere
with the operation of the OnStar
system and cause it to not operate.
