Diversity Antenna System
For vehicles with convertible tops,
the AM-FM antenna is a hidden
self‐tuning system and is located
in the rear spoiler. It optimizes the
AM and FM signals relative to the
vehicle's position and radio station
source. No maintenance or
adjustments are needed. Do not
place loads on the spoiler. If the
spoiler is replaced, be sure it is
replaced with the correct GM parts
for the best AM and FM reception.
Satellite Radio Antenna
For vehicles with XM Satellite Radio
Service, the antenna is located on
the decklid of the vehicle. Keep the
antenna clear of obstructions for
clear radio reception.
Audio Players
CD Player
The CD player can play audio CDs
and MP3 CDs.
The CD player will not play 8 cm
(3 in) CDs.
Care of CDs
Sound quality can be reduced due
to disc quality, recording method,
quality of the music recorded, and
how the disc has been handled.
Handle discs carefully and store
them in their original cases or other
protective cases away from direct
sunlight and dust. If the bottom
surface of a disc is damaged, the
disc may not play properly or at all.
Do not touch the bottom surface of
a disc while handling it; this could
damage the surface. Pick up discs
by grasping the outer edges or the
edge of the hole and the outer edge.
If the bottom surface of a disc is
dirty, take a soft lint‐free cloth,
or dampen a clean soft cloth in amild neutral detergent solution
mixed with water, and clean it. Wipe
the disc from the center to the
outer edge.
Care of the CD Player
Do not add a label to a disc, as it
could get caught in the CD player.
If a label is needed, label the top of
the recorded disc with a
marking pen.
Do not use disc lens cleaners
because they could contaminate the
lens of the disc optics and damage
the CD player.
Notice:
If a label is added to a
CD, 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.
