14 Radio
This system relies on receiving
specific information from these
stations and only works when the
information is available. It is
possible that a radio station could
broadcast incorrect information that
causes the radio features to work
improperly. If this happens, contact
the radio station.
When information is broadcast from
the current FM station, the station
name or call letters display on the
audio screen. RDS can provide a
program type (PTY) for current
programming and the name of the
program being broadcasted.
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 call1-888-601-6296. 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 powerlines 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. 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.

Navigation 37
.The route prohibits the entry of a
vehicle due to a regulation by
time or season or any other
regulation which may be given.
. Some routes might not be
searched.
. The route to the destination
might not be shown if there are
new roads, if roads have
recently changed, or if certain
roads are not listed in the map
data. See Maps026.
To recalibrate the vehicle's position
on the map, park with the vehicle
running for two to five minutes, until
the vehicle position updates. Make
sure the vehicle is parked in a
location that is safe and has a clear
view of the sky and away from large
obstructions.
If the System Needs
Service
If the navigation system needs
service and the steps listed here
have been followed but there are
still problems, see your dealer.
Map Data Updates
The map data in the vehicle is the
most up-to-date information
available when the vehicle was
produced. The map data is updated
periodically, provided that the map
information has changed.
For questions about the operation of
the navigation system or the update
process, call the GM Nav Disc
Center at 1-877-NAV-DISC
(1-877-628-3472) or see
www.gmnavdisc.com. If updates are
needed, call the GM Nav Disc
Center or order online.
Over-the-Air-Vehicle Map
Updates
If equipped, the infotainment system
can receive map updates over the
air. Map updates occur within a
161 km (100 mi) radius around the
home address on file. This
boundary will adjust over time
based on driving patterns. The
vehicle uses a Cloud-connected
service to receive the date and
downloads it to the system’s
onboard SD card, if equipped. A data plan or compatible mobile
device hotspot is required. The SD
card is required for navigation
system function.
When a map update is available, a
prompt will appear on the
infotainment display. Once the
update is accepted, it will download
and run in the background without
interruption any infotainment
functions. The download will carry
over ignition cycles, stopping and
starting where it left off. The
updates can be set to download
automatically.
See www.gmnavdisc.com for details
on ordering, purchasing, and
installing a new or replacement SD
card. Features are subject to
change. For more information on
this feature, see my.buick.com/
learn.

40 Voice Recognition
There are three voice prompt modes
supported:
.Informative verbal prompts: This
type of prompt will provide more
information regarding the
supported actions.
. Short prompts: This type of
prompt will provide simple
instructions about what can be
stated.
. Auto informative prompts: This
type of prompt plays during the
first few speech sessions, then
automatically switches to the
short prompt after some
experience has been gained
through using the system.
If a command is not spoken, the
voice recognition system says a
help prompt.
Prompts and Infotainment
Displays
While a voice recognition session is
active, there may be corresponding
options showing on the displays.
A selection can be made by
manually touching the option, or by speaking the number for the option
to select. Manual interaction in the
voice recognition session is
permitted. Interaction during a voice
session may be completed entirely
using voice commands while some
manual commands may expedite a
task. If a selection is made using a
manual control, the voice
recognition dialog will progress in
the same way as if the selection
were made using a voice command.
Once the system completes the
task, or the session is terminated,
the voice recognition dialog stops.
An example of this type of manual
intervention is touching an entry of a
displayed number list instead of
speaking the number associated
with the entry desired.
Canceling Voice Recognition
.
Touch or say “Cancel”or“Exit”
to terminate the voice
recognition session and show
the display where voice
recognition was initiated. .
Press
ion the steering wheel
controls to terminate the voice
recognition session and show
the display where voice
recognition was initiated.
Natural Language Commands
Most languages do not support
natural language commands in
sentence form. For those
languages, use direct commands
like the examples shown on the
display.
Helpful Hints for Speaking
Commands
Voice recognition can understand
commands that are naturally stated
in sentence form or direct
commands that state the application
and the task.
For best results:
. Listen for the prompt before
saying a command or reply.
. Speak the command naturally,
not too fast, not too slow.

Buick Regal Infotainment System (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-
12680696) - 2019 - crc - 6/25/18
Voice Recognition 41
.Use direct commands without a
lot of extra words. For example,
“Call at work,” “Play”
followed by the artist or song
name, or “Tune”followed by the
radio station number.
. Navigation destinations can be
made in a single command
using keywords. A few examples
are: “I want directions to an
address,” “I need to find a Place
of Interest or (POI),” or“Find
contact.”
The system responds by
requesting more details. For
other POIs, say the name of a
category like “Restaurants,”
“Shopping Malls,” or“Hospitals.”
. Navigating to a destination
outside of the current country
takes more than one command.
The first command is to tell the
system where the navigation will
take place, such as an Address,
Intersection, POI, or Contact.
If Address or Intersection is
selected, the second command
is to say, “Change Country.”
Once the system responds, say the country before saying the
rest of the address and/or
intersection.
If POI is asked for, say
“Change
Location,” then“Change
Country.”
Direct commands might be more
clearly understood by the system.
An example of a direct command
would be “Call .”
Examples of these direct commands
are displayed on most of the
screens while a voice session is
active. If “Phone”or“Phone
Commands,” is spoken, the system
understands that a phone call is
requested and will respond with
questions until enough details are
gathered to make a call.
If a cell phone number has been
saved with a name and a place, the
direct command should include
both, for example “Call
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.
When a display contains a list, there
may be options that are available
but not displayed. The list on a
voice recognition screen functions
the same as a list on other displays.
Scrolling or flinging can be used to
help display other entries from
the list.
Manually scrolling or paging the list
on a display during a voice
recognition session suspends the
current voice recognition event and
plays the prompt “Please select
manually or touch the Back icon on
the infotainment display to try
again.”
If manual selection takes more than
15 seconds, the session terminates
and prompts that it has timed out.
The display returns to the display
where voice recognition was
initiated.
