7-10 Infotainment System
Multi-Band Antenna
Vehicles with OnStar have a
multi-band antenna located on the
roof of the vehicle. The antenna is
used for the AM/FM radio, OnStar
and the XM Satellite Radio Service
System. Keep the antenna clear of
obstructions for clear reception.
If the vehicle has a sunroof, the
performance of the AM/FM radio,
OnStar, and the XM system may be
affected if the sunroof is open.
Audio Players
CD Player
Care of the CD Player
Do not add labels to a CD. It could
get caught in the CD player. Use a
marking pen to write on the top of
the CD if a description is needed.
Do not use CD lens cleaners, they
could damage the CD player.
Notice:If a label is added to a
CD, or more than one CD is
inserted into the slot at a time,
or an attempt is made to play
scratched or damaged CDs, the
CD player could be damaged.
While using the CD player, use
only CDs in good condition
without any label, load one CD at
a time, and keep the CD player
and the loading slot free of
foreign materials, liquids, and
debris.
If an error displays, see “CD
Messages” earlier in this section.
Care of CDs
If playing a CD-R, the sound quality
can be reduced due to CD-R quality,
the method of recording, the quality
of the music that has been
recorded, and the way the CD-R or
CD-RW has been handled. Handle
them carefully. Store CD-Rs in their
original cases or other protective
cases and away from direct sunlight
and dust. The CD player scans the
bottom surface of the disc. If the
surface of a CD is damaged, such
as cracked, broken, or scratched,
the CD does not play properly or not
at all. Do not touch the bottom side
of a CD while handling it; this could
damage the surface. Pick up CDs
by grasping the outer edges or the
edge of the hole and the outer edge.
If the surface of a CD is soiled,
clean it with a soft, lint‐free cloth or
dampen a clean, soft cloth in a mild,
neutral detergent solution mixed
with water. Make sure the wiping
process starts from the center to
the edge.
