Warning Lights, Gauges, and
Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can signal that
something is wrong before it becomes
serious enough to cause an expensive repair
or replacement. Paying attention to the
warning lights and gauges could prevent
injury.
Some warning lights come on briefly when
the propulsion system is started to indicate
they are working. When one of the warning
lights comes on and stays on while driving,
or when one of the gauges shows there
may be a problem, check the section that
explains what to do. Waiting to do repairs
can be costly and even dangerous.
Instrument Cluster
The instrument cluster displays a preview of
information that includes electric range,
charging, odometer, and battery status. This
happens upon entry when the driver door is
opened, before starting the vehicle. This
preview will dismiss after starting the
vehicle or soon after closing the driver door.

Lighting 111
This feature can be changed. See“Vehicle
Locator Lights” underVehicle Personalization
0 102.
Exit Lighting
Some exterior lamps and interior lamps turn
on when the vehicle is powered off.
The exterior and interior lamps remain on
for a set amount of time, then automatically
turn off. If equipped with Keyless Access,
the exterior lamps automatically turn on
when the driver door is opened after the
vehicle is powered off.
The interior lights turn on when the vehicle
is powered off.
The exterior lamps turn off immediately by
turning the exterior lamp control off.
This feature can be changed. See Vehicle
Personalization 0102.
Battery Power Protection
This feature helps prevent the battery from
being drained if the interior courtesy lamps
or reading lamps are accidentally left on.
If any of these lamps are left on, they
automatically turn off after 10 minutes if the
ignition is off. The lamps will not come back
on again until one of the following occurs:
.The vehicle is powered on.
.The doors are closed and then re-opened.
Battery Saver
The vehicle is equipped with electrical power
management (EPM). EPM monitors and
controls the charging system. The message
BATTERY SAVER ACTIVE displays on the
Driver Information Center (DIC) when the
EPM detects the battery may be draining
too quickly, the charge state needs to be
reset, or the Auxiliary Power Module failed.
If safe to do so, when BATTERY SAVER
ACTIVE displays, manually shut off
windshield wipers, communications
equipment, climate controls, etc. to slow the
battery from draining. See Automatic
Climate Control System 0148.
If the message still displays, fully charge the
vehicle. Once fully charged, unplug the
vehicle and let the vehicle sit an additional
8.5 hours or greater without being
interrupted to allow the Body Control
Module (BCM) to reset the battery to the
required state of charge.
The following may interrupt the vehicle:
.Charging the vehicle
.Battery Maintenance Mode
.Approach Detection is activated
.The Key Fob is left in the car or left in
close proximity of the vehicle
.Pressing buttons on the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter
.Opening the doors or tailgate
To reduce the occurrence of this alert, GM
recommends letting the vehicle sit
uninterrupted for 8.5 hours or greater on a
weekly basis.
If after completing this process the BATTERY
SAVER ACTIVE message remains, see your
dealer for service.
Exterior Lighting Battery Saver
The exterior lamps turn off about 10 minutes
after the vehicle is turned off, if the parking
lamps or headlamps have been manually
left on. This protects against draining the
battery. To restart the 10-minute timer, turn
the exterior lamp control to the
Oposition
and then back to the
;or2position.
To keep the lamps on for more than
10 minutes, the vehicle must be powered on.

Infotainment System 119
Radio Data System (RDS)
If equipped, RDS features are available for
use only on FM stations that broadcast RDS
information. With RDS, the radio can:
.Group stations by Category (i.e., Program
Type) such as Rock, Jazz, Classical, etc.
.Display messages from radio stations.
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 a RDS
station, the station name or call letters
display on the audio screen. Radio text
supporting the currently playing broadcast
may also appear.
Satellite Radio
SiriusXM Radio Service
If equipped, vehicles with a valid SiriusXM
radio subscription can receive SiriusXM
programming. SiriusXM 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 SiriusXM is active, the channel name,
number, song title, and artist appear on the
display.
SiriusXM with 360L
SiriusXM with 360L interface has enhanced
in-vehicle listening experience for
subscribers. The experience now offers more
categories and system learned
recommendations toward discovering more
personalized content.
To use the full SiriusXM 360L program,
including streaming content and listening
recommendations, OnStar Connected Access
is required. Connected vehicle services vary
by model and require a complete working
electrical system, cell reception, and GPS
signal. An active connected plan is required.
Reference the SiriusXM user guide for use
and subscription information.
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
