Radio Signals for Some Gate
Operators
For questions or programming help,
see www.homelink.com/gm or call
1-800-355-3515. For calls placed
outside the U.S.A, Canada, or Puerto
Rico, international rates will apply and
may differ based on landline or mobile
phone.
Some radio-frequency laws and gate
operators require transmitter signals
to time out or quit after several
seconds of transmission. This may not
be long enough for the Universal
Remote system to pick up the signal
during programming.
If the programming did not work,
replace Step 2 under “Programming
the Universal Remote System ”with

Driving with IntelliBeam
The system only activates the high
beams when driving over 40 km/h
(25 mph).
The blue high-beam on light appears
on the instrument cluster when the
high beams are on.
There is a sensor near the top center
of the windshield that automatically
controls the system. Keep this area of
the windshield clear of debris to allow
for best system performance. The high-beam headlamps remain on,
under the automatic control, until one
of the following situations occurs:
.The system detects an approaching
vehicle's headlamps.
.The system detects a preceding
vehicle's taillamps.
.The outside light is bright enough
that high-beam headlamps are not
required.
.The vehicle's speed drops below
20 km/h (12 mph).
.The IntelliBeam system is disabled
by the button on the turn signal
lever. If this happens, press
bon
the turn signal lever when the
exterior lamp control is in the
AUTO or
2position to reactivate
the IntelliBeam system. The
instrument cluster light will come
on to indicate the IntelliBeam
system is reactivated.
The high beams may not turn off
automatically if the system cannot
detect another vehicle's lamps because
of any of the following:
.The other vehicle's lamps are
missing, damaged, obstructed from
view, or otherwise undetected.
.The other vehicle's lamps are
covered with dirt, snow, and/or road
spray.
.The other vehicle's lamps cannot be
detected due to dense exhaust,
smoke, fog, snow, road spray, mist,
or other airborne obstructions.
.The vehicle's windshield is dirty,
cracked, or obstructed by something
that blocks the view of the light
sensor.
.The vehicle is loaded such that the
front end points upward, causing
the light sensor to aim high and not
detect headlamps and taillamps.
.The vehicle is being driven on
winding or hilly roads.
The automatic high-beam headlamps
may need to be disabled if any of the
above conditions exist.

active. Holding the turn signal lever
for more than one second will cause
the turn signals to flash until the
lever is released.
The lever returns to its starting
position whenever it is released. If after signaling a turn or a lane
change the arrows flash rapidly or do
not come on, a signal bulb could be
burned out.
Replace any burned out bulbs. If a
bulb is not burned out, check the fuse.

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 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.
Multi-Band Antenna
The roof antenna may be used for
radio, navigation, and OnStar,
depending on the equipped options.
Keep clear of obstructions for clear

A flashing light indicates the
headphones are not in range. Move
them closer to the forward overhead
screen until the light stops flashing.
If the light does not come on, check
the batteries. Intermittent sound or
static can also indicate weak batteries.
See“Battery Replacement ”later in this
section.
Turn the headphones off when they
are not in use.
Press the center of the right side of
the headphone to change the channel.
Channel 1 will provide audio
associated with screen 1 and channel 2

Infrared transmitters are on the top of
the right seatback video screen. The
headphones shut off automatically to
save the battery power if the RSI
system is off or if the headphones are
out of range of the transmitters for
more than three minutes. Moving too
far forward or stepping out of the
vehicle can cause the headphones to
lose the signal or have static.
Use the volume control on the
headphones to adjust the volume. For best audio performance, wear the
headphones as indicated with L (Left)
and R (Right) on the ear pads. Do not
let anything cover the ear pads.
Caution
Do not store the headphones in
heat or direct sunlight. This could
damage the headphones and repairs
would not be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Storage in extreme cold
can weaken the batteries. Keep the
headphones stored in a cool, dry
place.
If the foam ear pads become worn or
damaged, the pads can be replaced
separately. To purchase replacement
ear pads, call 1-888-293-3332 or
contact your dealer.
Battery Replacement
To change the batteries: 1. Loosen the screw to the battery door on the left side of the
headphones.
2. Slide the battery door open.
3. Replace the two AAA batteries. 4. Replace the battery door and
tighten the screw.
Remove the batteries if the
headphones will not be used for a
long time.
RSI Troubleshooting
No power : The ignition might not be
on or in ACC/ACCESSORY.
There is no sound from the
headphones with the indicator light
on : If the batteries are good, make
sure the headphones are programmed
to the correct screen and on the
correct channel for the screen being
viewed.
Sometimes the wireless headphone
audio cuts out or buzzes : Check for
obstructions, low batteries, reception
range, and interference from cell
phone towers or from cellular
telephone use in the vehicle. Check
that the headphones are on correctly
using the L (Left) and R (Right) on the
headphones. Check that the
headphones are positioned properly
with the headband across the top of
the head.
