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. Static can occur when
things like storms and power lines
interfere with radio reception. When
this happens, try reducing the treble
on the radio.
SiriusXM Satellite Radio
Service
If equipped, SiriusXM Satellite
Radio Service provides digital radio
reception. 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 SiriusXM signal for a period
of time.
Cell Phone Usage
Cell phone usage, such as making
or receiving phone calls, charging,
or just having the phone on may
cause static interference with the
radio. Unplug the phone or turn it off
if this happens.
Multi-Band Antenna
The multi-band antenna is on the
roof of the vehicle. The antenna is
used for the AM-FM radio, OnStar,
the SiriusXM Satellite Radio Service
System, and GPS (Global
Positioning System), if the vehicle
has these features. Keep the
antenna clear of obstructions for
clear reception.
Pandora Internet Radio

Internet radio service that streams
personalized radio stations based
on artists, tracks, genres, and
comedians. Create stations using

can be completed in a single
command. If the task takes more
than one command to complete, the
first command would be to indicate
the kind of task that is to be
performed. The system replies with
prompts that lead through a dialog
to enter the necessary information.
Voice recognition can be used when
the ignition is on or when Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) is active.
SeeRetained Accessory Power
(RAP) 0213
ii.
Using Voice Recognition
Voice recognition becomes available
once the system has been
initialized. This begins when the
ignition is turned on. Initialization
may take a few moments.
1. Press the button below the
g
screen button.
When voice recognition is
started from the infotainment
screen, the selections and
visual dialog content are
displayed on both the center
stack display and the
instrument cluster display. 2. The audio system mutes and
the system plays a prompt
followed by a beep.
3. Wait until the beep stops, then clearly speak one of the
commands described in this
section.
Press the button below the
g
screen button to interrupt any
voice recognition system
prompt. For example, if the
prompt seems to be taking too
long to finish, press the button
below the
gscreen button
again and the beep should
happen right away.
There are two voice prompt modes
supported:
. Long verbal prompts: The longer
prompts provide more
information regarding the
supported actions.
. Short prompts: The short
prompts provide simple
instructions about what can be
stated. If a command is not spoken, the
voice recognition system says a
help prompt.
Prompts and Screen Displays
While a voice recognition session is
active, there will be corresponding
buttons on screens displayed.
Manual interaction in the voice
recognition session is permitted.
Interaction during a voice session
may be completed entirely using
voice commands, or some
selections may expedite a session.
If a selection is made using a
manual control, the dialog will
progress in the same way as if the
selection was made through a voice
command. Once the system is able
to complete the task, or the session
is terminated, the voice recognition
dialog stops.
An example of this type of manual
intervention is pressing on an entry
of a displayed number list instead of
speaking the number associated
with the entry desired.

166 Infotainment System
Canceling Voice Recognition
.Select the Home screen button
to terminate the voice
recognition session which was
initiated by selecting
gon the
infotainment screen.
. Select or say “Cancel”or“Exit”
to terminate the voice
recognition session and display
the screen from which voice
recognition was initiated.
Helpful Hints for Speaking
Commands
Voice recognition can understand
commands that are either naturally
stated in sentence form (English
only), or direct commands that state
the application and the task.
For languages that do not support
natural language commands in
sentence form, use the direct
commands shown as examples on
the display screen.
For best results:
. Listen for the prompt and wait
for the beep before saying a
command or reply. .
Say “Help” or look at the screen
display for commands.
. Voice recognition system
prompts can be interrupted
during a prompt by selecting
g
again.
For example, if the prompt
seems to be taking too long to
finish, or if what is being
prompted causes a need for an
immediate reply, select
gagain
and wait for the beep.
. Speak the command naturally,
not too fast, not too slow. Use
direct commands without a lot of
extra words.
. Usually Phone and Audio
commands can be spoken in a
single command.
For example, “Call Dave Smith
at work,” “Play” followed by the
artist or song name, or “Tune”
followed by the radio station
number.
There is no need to memorize
specific command words. Direct
commands might be more clearly understood by the system. An
example of a direct command would
be
“Call 555-1212.” Examples of
these direct commands are
displayed on most of the screens
while a voice session is active.
If “Phone” or“Phone Commands” is
stated, the system understands that
a phone call is requested and will
respond with questions until enough
details are gathered.
If the phone number has been
saved with a name and a place, the
direct command should include
both, for example “Call Dave Smith
at work.”
Using Voice Recognition for
List Options
When a list is displayed, a voice
prompt will ask to confirm or select
an option from that list. A selection
can be made by manually selecting
the item, or by speaking the line
number for the item.
When a screen contains a list,
options may be available but not
displayed. The list on a voice
recognition screen functions the
