HD Radio Troubleshooting
Digital Audio Delay :
Wait for the
signal to process. This can take
several seconds.
Volume Change, Audio Skip,
Echo, Digital Audio Lost : Station
signal strength may be weak, the
station is out of range, or the station
may be out of alignment. Verify
proper reception on another station.
If the HD Radio signal loses
reception while listening to HD1, the
radio will go back to the analog
version of the radio station.
If the HD Radio signal loses
reception while listening to stations
HD2 to HD8, the radio mutes until
the signal can be recovered or until
the station is changed. HD Radio reception can be disabled
if driving in a weak signal area.
Touch HD Radio On/Off to toggle
HD Radio reception on and off.
Radio Data System (RDS)
The audio system has an RDS.
RDS features are available for use
only on FM and DAB stations that
broadcast RDS information. With
RDS, the radio can:
.
Seek to stations broadcasting
the selected type of
programming
. Receive announcements
concerning local and national
emergencies
. Display messages from radio
stations
This system relies on receiving
specific information from these
stations and only works when the
information is available. In rare
cases, a radio station may
broadcast incorrect information that
causes the radio features to work
improperly. If this happens, contact
the radio station.

12 Radio
The RDS is always on. When
information is broadcast from the
current FM station, the station name
or call letters display on the audio
screen. RDS may provide a
program type (PTY) for current
programming and the name of the
program being broadcasted.
When RDS signal information has
been detected, the metadata fields
will be updated on the display to
show the RDS data. The radio text
will be updated any time new
information is received.
The RDS fields on the display will
show in the order of:
.Frequency and /or RDS-PSN.
. RDS text line one is the
information provided by the
broadcast.
. RDS text line two and three is
RDS text. Line three is used only
if necessary, to wrap over from
the text on line two.
If the RDS text information
overflows from line two and three,
the previous information given on line two and three will clear. The
overflow of information will finish
starting from the previously used
line two and then if necessary, line
three.
If an RDS text update occurs during
the paging, the display fields are
cleared and the new information is
displayed, beginning on line two.
Once the entire broadcast text is
finished paging, the amount of text
that can fit in lines two and three will
be displayed and an ellipsis will
indicate further text exists.
RDS Traffic Volume Setting
Traffic alert volume can be adjusted
by turning the volume up or down
while the alert is playing. The
system will store this setting for
future traffic alerts.
If the current source is playing at a
higher volume than the traffic alert
volume setting, the traffic alert will
play back at the current source
volume setting. If the current source
is playing at a lower volume than
the traffic alert volume setting, the
traffic alert will play at the volume
set for traffic.
Once an alert is complete, the
system volume returns to its
previously set level prior to the
traffic alert.
If the traffic alert volume is set to
zero during an alert, the next traffic
alert will play at the minimum
connection volume level.
If stations or sources are switched
during a traffic alert, the current
traffic alert will be cancelled.
Satellite Radio
If equipped, vehicles with a valid
SiriusXM satellite radio subscription
can receive SXM programming.
SiriusXM satellite radio has a wide
variety of programming and
commercial-free music, coast to
coast, in digital-quality sound. In the
U.S. see www.siriusxm.com or call
1-888-601-6296. In Canada see
www.siriusxm.ca or call
1-877-438-9677.

When SXM is active, the channel
name, number, song title, and artist
appear on the display.
Radio Reception
Unplug electronic devices from the
accessory power outlets if there is
interference or static in the radio.
FM
FM signals only reach about 16 to
65 km (10 to 40 mi). 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. 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.
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 oftime. Some cellular services may
interfere with SXM reception
causing loss of signal.
Mobile Device Usage
Mobile device usage, such as
making or receiving calls, charging,
or just having the mobile device on
may cause static interference in the
radio. Unplug the mobile device or
turn it off if this happens.
Multi-Band Antenna
The roof antenna is for SXM, AM,
FM, OnStar, and GPS (Global
Positioning System). Keep clear of
obstructions for clear reception.
If the vehicle has a sunroof, and it is
open, reception can also be
affected.

Navigation 33
The system will show an alert when
the subscription is expiring and will
ask to renew the plan.
OnStar System
With a connected plan, an OnStar
Advisor can download a destination
to the vehicle or into the built-in
navigation system.
Touch OnStar on the Home Page to
access the OnStar menu. Touch
Turn-by-Turn Directions icon while
on the OnStar menu.Turn-by-Turn Navigation
After touching the Turn-by-Turn
Directions icon, select destinations
from Recents or Favorites. To find
new locations, touch OnStar
Advisor, Home Directions, Place
Voice Search, or Address Voice
Search.
Lane Guidance
When available, the system will
show the best lane(s) to be in for
the next maneuver.
Cancel a Route
If a route is in progress using either
the vehicle navigation system or the
Turn-by-Turn route, and a new route
is requested, the current route in
progress will be canceled.
Global Positioning
System (GPS)
The position of the vehicle is
determined by using satellite
signals, various vehicle signals, and
map data.
At times, other interference such as
the satellite condition, road
configuration, condition of the
vehicle, and/or other circumstances
can affect the navigation system's
ability to determine the accurate
position of the vehicle.
The GPS shows the current position
of the vehicle using signals sent by
GPS satellites. When the vehicle is

34 Navigation
not receiving signals from the
satellites, a symbol appears in the
status bar.
This system might not be available
or interference can occur if any of
the following are true:
.Signals are obstructed by tall
buildings, trees, large trucks,
or a tunnel.
. Satellites are being repaired or
improved.
For more information if the GPS is
not functioning properly, see
Problems with Route Guidance 034
and If the System Needs Service
0 35.
Vehicle Positioning
At times, the position of the vehicle
on the map could be inaccurate due
to one or more of the following
reasons:
.
The road system has changed.
. The vehicle is driving on slippery
road surfaces such as sand,
gravel, or snow. .
The vehicle is traveling on
winding roads or long, straight
roads.
. The vehicle is approaching a tall
building or a large vehicle.
. The surface streets run parallel
to a freeway.
. The vehicle has been transferred
by a vehicle carrier or a ferry.
. The current position calibration
is set incorrectly.
. The vehicle is traveling at high
speed.
. The vehicle changes directions
more than once, or the vehicle is
turning on a turn table in a
parking lot.
. The vehicle is entering and/or
exiting a parking lot, garage, or a
lot with a roof.
. The GPS signal is not received.
. A roof carrier is installed on the
vehicle.
. Tire chains are installed on the
vehicle. .
The tires are replaced or worn.
. The tire pressure for the tires is
incorrect.
. This is the first navigation use
after the map data is updated.
. The 12-volt battery has been
disconnected for several days.
. The vehicle is driving in heavy
traffic where driving is at low
speeds, and the vehicle is
stopped and started repeatedly.
Problems with Route
Guidance
Inappropriate route guidance can
occur under one or more of the
following conditions:
.The turn was not made on the
road indicated.
. Route guidance might not be
available when using automatic
rerouting for the next right or
left turn.
. The route might not be changed
when using automatic rerouting.
