76 Instruments and Controls
information from the Global Positioning
System (GPS) antenna and vehicle speed
information.
The compass system has automatic
calibration and zone adjustment features.
Avoid covering the GPS antenna for long
periods of time with objects that may
interfere with the antenna's ability to
receive a satellite signal. The compass
system is designed to operate for a certain
number of miles or degrees of turn before
needing a signal from the GPS satellites. The
compass system will automatically
determine when a GPS signal is restored and
provide a heading.
Clock
Set the time and date using the
infotainment system. See "Time / Date"
underSettings 0133.
Power Outlets
The accessory power outlet can be used to
plug in electrical equipment, such as a
mobile phone or MP3 player. The accessory
power outlet only works with the vehicle
turned on. The vehicle has an accessory power outlet
on the lower center stack below the climate
control.
Open the cover to access and replace when
not in use.
Caution
Leaving electrical equipment plugged in
for an extended period of time while the
vehicle is off will drain the battery.
Always unplug electrical equipment when
not in use and do not plug in equipment
that exceeds the maximum 20 amp
rating.
Certain accessory power plugs may not be
compatible with the accessory power outlet
and could overload vehicle or adapter fuses.
If a problem is experienced, see your dealer.
When adding electrical equipment, be sure
to follow the proper installation instructions
included with the equipment. See Add-On
Electrical Equipment 0215.
Caution
Hanging heavy equipment from the
power outlet can cause damage not
covered by the vehicle warranty. The
power outlets are designed for accessory
power plugs only, such as cell phone
charge cords.
Wireless Charging
If equipped and enabled, the vehicle has
wireless charging in the bin below the
climate control system. The system operates
at 145 kHz and wirelessly charges one Qi
compatible smartphone. The power output
of the system is capable of charging at a
rate up to 3 amp (15 W), as requested by
the compatible smartphone. See Radio
Frequency Statement 0294.
{Warning
Wireless charging may affect the
operation of an implanted pacemaker or
other medical devices. If you have one, it
is recommended to consult with your
doctor before using the wireless charging
system.

Vehicle Care 231
Electrical System Overload
The vehicle has fuses and circuit breakers to
protect against an electrical system
overload.
When the current electrical load is too
heavy, the circuit breaker opens and closes,
protecting the circuit until the current load
returns to normal or the problem is fixed.
This greatly reduces the chance of circuit
overload and fire caused by electrical
problems.
Fuses and circuit breakers protect power
devices in the vehicle.
If there is a problem on the road and a fuse
needs to be replaced, the same amperage
fuse can be borrowed. Choose some feature
of the vehicle that is not needed to use and
replace it as soon as possible.
To check a fuse, look at the band inside the
fuse. If the band is broken or melted,
replace the fuse. Be sure to replace a bad
fuse with a fuse of the identical size and
rating.
Replacing a Blown Fuse
1. Turn off the vehicle.
2. Locate the fuse puller in the underhoodcompartment fuse block.
3. Use the fuse puller to remove the fusefrom the top or side, as shown above.

232 Vehicle Care
4. If the fuse must be replacedimmediately, borrow a replacement fuse
with the same amperage from the fuse
block. Choose a vehicle feature that is
not needed to safely operate the vehicle.
Repeat Steps 2-3.
5. Insert the replacement fuse into the empty slot of the blown fuse.
At the next opportunity, see your dealer to
replace the blown fuse.
Headlamp Wiring
An electrical overload may cause the lamps
to go on and off, or in some cases to
remain off. Have the headlamp wiring
checked right away if the lamps go on and
off or remain off.
Windshield Wipers
If the wiper motor overheats due to heavy
snow or ice, the windshield wipers will stop
until the motor cools and the wiper control
is turned off. After removal of the blockage,
the wiper motor will restart when the
control is then moved to the desired
operating position.
Although the circuit is protected from
electrical overload, overload due to heavy
snow or ice, may cause wiper damage.
Always clear ice and heavy snow from the
windshield before using the windshield
wipers.
If the overload is caused by an electrical
problem and not snow or ice, be sure to get
it fixed.
Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in the vehicle are
protected from short circuits by a
combination of fuses and circuit breakers.
This greatly reduces the chance of damage
caused by electrical problems.
{Danger
Fuses and circuit breakers are marked
with their ampere rating. Do not exceed
the specified amperage rating when
replacing fuses and circuit breakers. Use
of an oversized fuse or circuit breaker can
result in a vehicle fire. You and others
could be seriously injured or killed.

Vehicle Care 233
{Warning
Installation or use of fuses that do not
meet GM’s original fuse specifications is
dangerous. The fuses could fail, and result
in a fire. You or others could be injured
or killed, and the vehicle could be
damaged.
See Accessories and Modifications 0217 and
General Information 0217.
To check or replace a blown fuse, see
Electrical System Overload 0231.
Underhood Compartment Fuse
Block
To open the fuse block cover, press the clips
at the side and back and pull the cover up.
Caution
Spilling liquid on any electrical
component on the vehicle may damage
it. Always keep the covers on any
electrical component.
