Traveling Across Regions
If driving across several states, the selected region
might have to be changed to represent the destination.
There are two ways to 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 as you get
closer to the destination. See “Setting the Search
Area” underMaps on page 4-38.
2. Enter the destination and route settings. SeeEnter
Destination on page 4-27for more information.
If not using the rst method, keep the currently
selected search area region and enter the destination.
This method allows a destination selection 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 traveling in or to Canada and the regional border is
crossed, 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 destination. 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 displays
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
Operation on page 2-5for more information.
OnStar®System
When using the OnStar®system, the audio system
mutes and the navigation voice prompts become
disabled during the call. The volume of the OnStar call
can be adjusted by using the steering wheel volume
controls. SeeOnStar
®System on page 2-42for
more information.

Global Positioning System (GPS)
The navigation system determines the position of the
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 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 toSymbols on page 4-43.This system may not be available or interferences may
occur if any of the following is true:Signals are obstructed by tall buildings, trees, large
trucks, or a tunnel.
Objects are located on the rear shelf of the vehicle.
Satellites are being repaired or improved.
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, seeIf the System Needs Service on page 4-51
andProblems with Route Guidance on page 4-51.
