Getting Started Read this manual thoroughly to become familiar with how the navigation system operates. The navigation system includes navigation and audio functions. While entering the vehicle or when turning the vehicle off, some DVD Map Disc noise is normal. Keeping your eyes on the road and your mind on the drive is important for safe driving. The navigation system has built-in features intended to help keep your eyes on the road and mind on the drive. Some features may be disabled while driving. Note that these functions will be grayed-out. A grayed-out function indicates it is not available when the vehicle is moving. 1-4 All functions are available when the vehicle is parked. Do the following before driving: (cid:129) Become familiar with the navigation system operation, hard keys on the faceplate, and touch-sensitive screen buttons of the navigation system. (cid:129) Set up the audio by presetting favorite stations, setting the tone, and adjusting the speakers. (cid:129) Set up the navigation features before beginning driving, such as entering an address or a preset destination. (cid:129) Set up your phone numbers in advance so they can be called easily with the press of a single button or a single voice command (for navigation systems equipped with phone capability). { CAUTION: Taking your eyes off the road too long or too often while using the navigation system could cause a crash resulting in injury or death to you or others. Focus your attention on driving. { CAUTION: Avoid looking too long or too often at the moving map on the navigation screen. This could cause a crash and you or others can be injured or killed. Use the turn-by-turn voice guidance directions whenever possible. Use the navigation system to: (cid:129) Plan a route. (cid:129) Select a destination using various methods and choices. Follow turn-by-turn route and map guidance with voice prompts, only if permitted by traffic laws, controls, and conditions. You should always be alert and obey traffic and roadway laws and instructions, regardless of the guidance from the navigation system. Because the navigation system uses street map information that does not include all traffic restrictions or the latest road changes, it may suggest using a road that is now closed for construction or a turn that is prohibited by signs at the intersection. Because the system uses limited information, you must always evaluate whether following the system’s directions is safe and legal for the current conditions. When the navigation system is turned on, a screen may appear with the information below, and you must read and acknowledge the information it contains. { CAUTION: Taking your eyes off the road for extended periods could cause a crash resulting in injury or death to you or others. To help avoid a crash in which you or others could be killed: (cid:129) Always concentrate on your driving ﬁrst by keeping your eyes and mind on the road, and your hands on the wheel. Follow system directions only if permitted by traffic laws, controls, and conditions. (cid:129) Before using this system, read the owner’s manual and learn how it operates. (cid:129) Some system controls cannot be used the when vehicle is moving. 1-5 (cid:129) (cid:129) When getting started, set the navigation system to your preference or delete information you may have entered using various options. Language For vehicles with a Driver Information Center (DIC), see “DIC Vehicle Customization” in the Index of the vehicle’s owner manual to change the language of the navigation screens.

At times, other interferences such as the satellite condition, road conﬁguration, the condition of the vehicle and/or other circumstances can interfere with the navigation system’s ability to determine the accurate position of the vehicle. The GPS shows the current position of the vehicle using signals sent by the GPS Satellites of the United States Department of Defense. When the vehicle is not receiving signals from the satellites, a symbol appears on the map screen. Refer to Symbols on page 2-7. This system may not be available or interferences may occur if any of the following is true: (cid:129) Signals are obstructed by tall buildings, trees, large trucks, or a tunnel. (cid:129) Objects are located on the rear shelf of the vehicle. (cid:129) Satellites are being repaired or improved. (cid:129) After-market glass tinting has been applied to the vehicle’s rear windshield. Notice: Do not apply after-market glass tinting to the vehicle’s windows. Glass tinting interferes with the system’s ability to receive GPS signals and causes the system to malfunction. The window might have to be replaced to correct the problem. This would not be covered by the warranty. For more information if the GPS is not functioning properly, see If the System Needs Service on page 2-40 and Problems with Route Guidance on page 2-40. 2-38 Vehicle Positioning At times, the position of the vehicle on the map may 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 in sand, gravel, and/or snow. The vehicle is traveling on winding roads. The vehicle is on a long straight road. The vehicle is approaching a tall building or a large vehicle. The surface streets run parallel to a freeway. The vehicle has just been transferred by a vehicle carrier or a ferry. The current position calibration is set incorrectly. The vehicle is traveling at high speed. The vehicle changes directions more than once, or when the vehicle is turning on a turn table in a parking lot. The vehicle is entering and/or exiting a parking lot, garage, or a lot with a roof. The GPS signal is not received. (cid:129) A roof carrier is installed on your vehicle. The vehicle is being driven with tire chains. The tires are replaced. The tire pressure for your tires is incorrect. The tires are worn. The ﬁrst time the map DVD is inserted. The battery is 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. If problems are experienced with the navigation system, see your dealer/retailer. 2-39 (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) Problems with Route Guidance Inappropriate route guidance could occur under one or more of the following conditions: (cid:129) You have not turned onto the road indicated. (cid:129) 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. (cid:129) Plural names of places may be announced occasionally. It may take a long time to operate automatic rerouting during high-speed driving. (cid:129) Automatic rerouting may display a route returning to the set stopover if traveling to a destination without passing through a set stopover. The route prohibits the entry of a vehicle due to a regulation by time or season or any other regulation which may be given. (cid:129) 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. See Ordering Map DVDs on page 2-41. If the System Needs Service If the navigation system needs service and the steps listed here have been followed but there are still problems, see your dealer/retailer for assistance. 2-40 (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) Ordering Map DVDs The map DVD in the vehicle is the most up-to-date information available when the vehicle was produced. The map DVD is updated periodically, provided that the map information has changed. For any questions about the operation of the navigation system or the update process, contact the GM Nav Disc Center toll-free phone number, 1-877-NAV-DISC (1-877-628-3472) or go to the center’s website, gmnavdisc.com. For any updates or replacements, call the GM Nav Disc Center or order a new disc online. Have the Vehicle Identiﬁcation Number (VIN) available when ordering to ensure the correct and most up-to-date DVD map disc for the vehicle is sent.
