includes interstate freeways, state highways, country
roads, and major and general streets.
Refer to the “Navigation System Map Disc” manual to

When your vehicle is delivered from the factory, the
dealer may have installed the map DVD. If the map DVD
was not installed in your vehicle when rst purchased,
do the following:
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. With the vehicle in PARK (P), press and hold the
TILT key until a beep is heard. The system’s
faceplate will open.
3. If already loaded, the map DVD or a CD will eject
from the slot.
4. Load the map DVD into the slot by inserting it
partway. The system will pull it in.
5. Press and release the TILT key to close the
faceplate.Notice:Shifting out of PARK (P) with the system’s
faceplate open will cause the faceplate to close
automatically. This could cause damage to a
CD, DVD or the system if it is partially loaded. Before
shifting out of PARK (P), make sure that the DVD
or CD is loaded properly. The vehicle must be
shifted back into PARK (P) to close the faceplate.
Once the map DVD is inserted correctly, you will

Traveling Across Regions
If you plan to drive across several states, you may have
to change the selected region to represent the area
you are traveling to.
There are two ways you can plan a destination when
traveling across regions.
The following method is suggested and provides the
most route guidance and map display functions:
1. Change the selected search area region when
you get closer to the area you are traveling to.
See “Setting the Search Area” underMaps
on page 4-38.
2. Enter your destination and route settings. SeeEnter
Destination on page 4-27for more information.
If you do not want to use the rst method, keep your
currently selected search area region and enter
your destination. This method allows you only to select
a destination from the easy planning route method
or from the All Points of Interest (POI) categories with
the “All Search Areas” comment for US Only. For
example, Tourist is a category that features this
comment. SeeEnter Destination on page 4-27for more
information.If you are traveling in or to Canada and you cross the
regional border, the only map scale views available
are 4 mi, 8 mi, 31 mi, and 128 mi (8 km, 16 km,
64 km and 256 km). Change the selected search area
region when you get closer to the area you are traveling
to. See “Setting the Search Area” underMaps on
page 4-38for more information.
Keyless Access System
When the engine is started, Driver 1 or Driver 2 will
display on the screen. A message will not appear on the
screen if the driver is unknown. The number on the
back of the transmitter corresponds to driver 1 or
driver 2. The navigation system can store memory points
for drivers 1 and 2 individually. SeeKeyless Access
System on page 2-4for more information.
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 2-38for
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 4-42.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 4-50and
Problems with Route Guidance on page 4-50.

Navigation Audio System
Notice:Before adding any sound equipment to
your vehicle, such as an audio system, CD player,
CB radio, mobile telephone, or two-way radio, make
sure that it can be added by checking with your
dealer. Also, check federal rules covering mobile
radio and telephone units. If sound equipment can
be added, it is very important to do it properly.
Added sound equipment may interfere with
the operation of your vehicle’s engine, radio, or
other systems, and even damage them. Your
vehicle’s systems may interfere with the operation
of sound equipment that has been added.
Your vehicle has a feature called Retained Accessory
Power (RAP). With RAP, the audio system can be
played even after the ignition is turned off. SeeRetained
Accessory Power (RAP) on page 2-22for more
information.
