Instruments and Controls 4-43
The OnStar system can record and
transmit vehicle information. This
information is automatically sent to
an OnStar call center when
Qis
pressed,
]is pressed, or if the
airbags or ACR system deploy.
This information usually includes
the vehicle's GPS location and,
in the event of a crash, additional
information regarding the crash that
the vehicle was involved in (e.g. the
direction from which the vehicle was
hit). When the virtual advisor feature
of OnStar hands-free calling is
used, the vehicle also sends OnStar
the vehicle's GPS location so they
can provide services where it is
located.
Location information about the
vehicle is only available if the GPS
satellite signals are unobstructed
and available. The vehicle must have a working
electrical system, including
adequate battery power, for the
OnStar equipment to operate. There
are other problems OnStar cannot
control that may prevent OnStar
from providing OnStar service at
any particular time or place. Some
examples are damage to important
parts of the vehicle in a crash, hills,
tall buildings, tunnels, weather or
wireless phone network congestion.
OnStar Steering Wheel

On some vehicles, the mute button
can be used to dial numbers into
voice mail systems, or to dial phone
extensions. See the OnStar Owner's

Vehicle Care 9-29
Notice:
.Using the wrong fluid can
badly damage brake/clutch
hydraulic system parts.
For example, just a few
drops of mineral-based oil,
such as engine oil, in the
brake hydraulic system can
damage brake hydraulic
system parts so badly that
they will have to be replaced.
Do not let someone put in
the wrong kind of fluid.
.If brake fluid is spilled
on the vehicle's painted
surfaces, the paint finish
can be damaged. Be careful
not to spill brake fluid on the
vehicle. If you do, wash it off
immediately.

shown on the original battery label
when a new battery is needed.
