Radio Reception
Frequency interference and static
can occur during normal radio
reception if items such as cell phone
chargers, vehicle convenience
accessories, and external electronic
devices are plugged into the
accessory power outlet. If there is
interference or static, unplug the item
from the accessory power outlet.
FM
FM signals only reach about
16 to 65 km (10 to 40 miles).
Although the radio has a built-in
electronic circuit that automatically
works to reduce interference,
some static can occur, especially
around tall buildings or hills, causing
the sound to fade in and out.
AM
The range for most AM stations is
greater than for FM, especially at
night. The longer range can cause
station frequencies to interfere with
each other. For better radio
reception, most AM radio stations
boost the power levels during the
day, and then reduce these levels
during the night. Static can also
occur when things like storms and
power lines interfere with radio
reception. When this happens, try
reducing the treble on the radio.
XM™ Satellite Radio Service
XM Satellite Radio Service gives
digital radio reception from
coast-to-coast in the 48 contiguous
United States, and in Canada.
Just as with FM, tall buildings or hills
can interfere with satellite radio
signals, causing the sound to fade
in and out. In addition, traveling
or standing under heavy foliage,
bridges, garages, or tunnels may
cause loss of the XM signal for
a period of time.
Cellular Phone Usage
Cellular phone usage may cause
interference with the vehicle’s radio.
This interference may occur when
making or receiving phone calls,
charging the phone’s battery,
or simply having the phone on.
This interference can cause
an increased level of static while
listening to the radio. If static
is received while listening to the
radio, unplug the cellular phone and
turn it off.
Backglass Antenna
The AM-FM antenna is integrated
with the rear window defogger,
located in the rear window. Make
sure that the inside surface of
the rear window is not scratched
and that the lines on the glass are
not damaged. If the inside surface
is damaged, it could interfere
with radio reception. For proper
radio reception, the antenna
connector needs to be properly
attached to the post on the glass.

Bluetooth (Overview)
Vehicles with a Bluetooth system
can use a Bluetooth capable
cell phone with a Hands Free Profile
to make and receive phone calls.
The infotainment system and
voice recognition are used to
control the system. The system
can be used while in ON/RUN or
ACC/ACCESSORY. The range
of the Bluetooth system can be up
to 9.1 m (30 ft.). Not all phones
support all functions and not
all phones work with the Bluetooth
system. See www.gm.com/bluetooth
for more information about
compatible phones.

during a call, to change the
volume level. The adjusted volume
level remains in memory for later
calls. The system maintains a
minimum volume level.
