Bluetooth®
Vehicles with a Bluetooth system can use a Bluetoothcapable cell phone with a Hands Free Profile to make andreceive phone calls. The system can be used while thekey is in ON/RUN or ACC/ACCESSORY position. Therange of the Bluetooth system can be up to 9.1 m (30 ft).Not all phones support all functions, and not all phonesare guaranteed to work with the in-vehicle Bluetoothsystem. See www.gm.com/bluetooth for more informationon compatible phones.
Voice Recognition
The Bluetooth system uses voice recognition to interpretvoice commands to dial phone numbers and name tags.
Noise:Keep interior noise levels to a minimum. Thesystem may not recognize voice commands if there istoo much background noise.
When to Speak:A short tone sounds after the systemresponds indicating when it is waiting for a voicecommand. Wait until the tone and then speak.
How to Speak:Speak clearly in a calm andnatural voice.
Audio System
When using the in-vehicle Bluetooth system, soundcomes through the vehicle’s front audio system speakersand overrides the audio system. Use the audio systemvolume knob, during a call, to change the volume level.The adjusted volume level remains in memory for latercalls. To prevent missed calls, a minimum volume level isused if the volume is turned down too low.

See the cell phonemanufacturers user guide for Bluetooth functions beforepairing the cell phone. If a Bluetooth phone is notconnected, calls will be made using OnStar®Hands-FreeCalling, if available. Refer to the OnStar owner’s guide formore information.
Pairing Information:
•Up to five cell phones can be paired to the in-vehicle

Keeping pace with the traffic and allowing realisticfollowing distances eliminates a lot of unnecessarybraking. That means better braking and longer brake life.
If the engine ever stops while the vehicle is being driven,brake normally but do not pump the brakes. If the brakesare pumped, the pedal could get harder to push down.If the engine stops, there will still be some power brakeassist but it will be used when the brake is applied. Oncethe power assist is used up, it can take longer to stop andthe brake pedal will be harder to push.
Adding non-dealer/non-retailer accessories can affectvehicle performance. SeeAccessories and Modificationson page 6-3.
Antilock Brake System (ABS)
This vehicle has the Antilock Brake System (ABS), anadvanced electronic braking system that helps prevent abraking skid.
When the engine is started and the vehicle begins todrive away, ABS checks itself. A momentary motoror clicking noise might be heard while this test is goingon, and it might even be noticed that the brake pedalmoves a little. This is normal.
If there is a problem withABS, this warning lightstays on. SeeAntilockBrake System (ABS)Warning Light onpage 4-53.
Let us say the road is wet and you are driving safely.Suddenly, an animal jumps out in front of you. You slamon the brakes and continue braking. Here is whathappens with ABS:
A computer senses that the wheels are slowing down.If one of the wheels is about to stop rolling, the computerwill separately work the brakes at each front wheeland at both rear wheels.
ABS can change the brake pressure to each wheel, asrequired, faster than any driver could. This can helpthe driver steer around the obstacle while braking hard.
As the brakes are applied, the computer keepsreceiving updates on wheel speed and controls brakingpressure accordingly.
Remember: ABS does not change the time needed to geta foot up to the brake pedal or always decrease stoppingdistance. If you get too close to the vehicle in front of you,there will not be enough time to apply the brakes if thatvehicle suddenly slows or stops. Always leave enoughroom up ahead to stop, even with ABS.
