Calling are available on most vehicles. Not all OnStar
services are available on all vehicles. For more
information, see the OnStar Owner's Guide; visit
www.onstar.com (U.S.) or www.onstar.ca (Canada);
contact OnStar at 1-888-4-ONSTAR (1‐888‐466‐7827)
or TTY 1‐877‐248‐2080; or press
Qto speak with an
OnStar advisor 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
For a full description of OnStar services and system
limitations, see the OnStar Owner's Guide in the
glove box.
OnStar service is subject to the OnStar terms and
conditions included in the OnStar Subscriber
Information. OnStar service requires wireless communication
networks and the Global Positioning System (GPS)
satellite network. Not all OnStar services are available
everywhere or on all vehicles at all times.
OnStar service can’t work unless your vehicle is in a
place where OnStar has an agreement with a wireless
service provider for service in that area, and the
wireless service provider has coverage, network
capacity, reception, and technology compatible with
OnStar's service. Service involving location information
about your vehicle can’t work unless GPS signals are
available, unobstructed, and compatible with the OnStar
hardware. The vehicle has to have a working electrical
system and adequate battery power for the OnStar
equipment to operate. OnStar service may not work if
the OnStar equipment isn’t properly installed or you
haven’t maintained it and your vehicle is in good
working order and in compliance with all government
regulations. If you try to add, connect, or modify any
equipment or software in your vehicle, OnStar service
may not work. Other problems OnStar can’t control may
prevent service to you, such as hills, tall buildings,
tunnels, weather, electrical system design and
architecture of your vehicle, damage to important parts
of your vehicle in a crash, or wireless phone network
congestion or jamming.

for your vehicle. If the floor mats need replacing, it
is recommended that GM certified floor mats be
purchased. Non-GM floor mats may not fit properly
and may interfere with the accelerator or brake
pedal. Always check that the floor mats do not
interfere with the pedals.
.Use the floor mat with the correct side up. Do not
turn it over.
.Do not place anything on top of the driver side
floor mat.
.Use only a single floor mat on the drivers side.
.Do not place one floor mat on top of another.

If your vehicle is equipped with an active OnStar
system, that system may also record data in crash or

starting, and in-vehicle transmitters for garage door
openers. RFID technology in GM vehicles does not use
or record personal information or link with any other
GM system containing personal information.

frequency that comply with Part 15 of the Federal

operation of the device.
Changes or modifications to any of these systems by
other than an authorized service facility could void
authorization to use this equipment.
