Global Positioning
System (GPS)
If equipped, 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
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
035
and
If the System Needs Service 035.
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.

Navigation 35
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.
. There is no route guidance when
turning at an intersection.
. Plural names of places might be
announced occasionally.
. It could take a long time to
operate automatic rerouting
during high-speed driving.
. Automatic rerouting might
display a route returning to the
set waypoint if heading for a
destination without passing
through a set waypoint. .
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 Maps025.
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, 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 and the
vehicle has a relevant service plan.
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.chevrolet.com/
learn.Database Coverage
Explanations
Coverage areas vary with respect to
the level of map detail available for
any given area. Some areas feature
greater levels of detail than others.
If this happens, it does not mean
there is a problem with the system.
As the map data is updated, more
detail can become available for
areas that previously had limited
detail. SeeMap Data Updates 035.

Voice Recognition 37
Voice Recognition
If equipped, voice recognition allows
for hands-free operation within the
navigation, audio, phone, and
weather applications. This feature
can be started by pressing
gon the
steering wheel or touching
gon the
infotainment display.
However, not all features within
these areas are supported by voice
commands. Generally, only complex
tasks that require multiple manual
interactions to complete are
supported by voice commands.
For example, tasks that take more
than one or two touches, such as a
song or artist to play from a media
device, would be supported by voice
commands. Other tasks, like
adjusting the volume or seeking up
or down, are audio features that are
easily performed by touching one or
two options, and are not supported
by voice commands.
In general there are flexible ways to
speak commands for completing the
tasks. If your language supports it, try
stating a One-Shot command, such
as
“Directions to address street, city, state/province>.” Do not
include the ZIP code while stating
the address during the command.
Another example of a One-Shot
Destination Entry command is,
“Directions to Place of Interest at
.” If these commands do not
work, try saying, “Take me to Place
of Interest” or“Find address” and
the system will walk you through by
asking additional questions.
Hybrid Speech Recognition
If equipped, this feature helps
distinguish words by using
Internet-based information along
with the system’ s voice recognition
database. This allows you to speak
more naturally when using voice
recognition.
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
gon the steering wheel
controls to activate voice
recognition.
2. The audio system mutes and the system plays a prompt.
3. Clearly speak one of the commands described in this
section.
A voice recognition system
prompt can be interrupted while
it is playing by pressing
g
again.
Once voice recognition is started,
both the infotainment display and
instrument cluster show the
selections and visual dialog content.
These displays can be turned on or
off in the Tutorial Mode under
Settings 052.
There are three voice prompt modes
supported:
. Informative verbal prompts: This
type of prompt will provide more
information regarding the
supported actions.

Voice Recognition 39
.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.
The Back Command
Say “Back” or touch the Back icon
on the infotainment display to go to
the previous menu.
If in voice recognition, and “Back”is
spoken all the way back to the
starting display, and then “Back”is
spoken one more time, the voice
recognition session will cancel.

access to the media content by
using commands for playlists,
artists, and genres.
The access commands for playlists,
artists, and genres are prohibited
after the number of this type of
media exceeds 12,000.
The system will provide feedback
the first time voice recognition is
initiated if it has become apparent
that any of these limits are reached
during a device initializing process.
Voice recognition performance will
degrade to some extent based on
many factors when adding large
amounts of data to recognize. If this
is the case, perhaps accessing
songs through playlists or artist
name would work better.
