Phone
Bluetooth
For vehicles equipped with Bluetooth
capability, the system can interact with
many cell phones, allowing:
.Placement and receipt of calls in a
hands-free mode.
.Sharing of the cell phone’s address book
or contact list with the vehicle.
To minimize driver distraction, before
driving, and with the vehicle parked:
.Become familiar with the features of the
cell phone. Organize the phone book and
contact lists clearly and delete duplicate
or rarely used entries. If possible,
program speed dial or other shortcuts.
.Review the controls and operation of the
infotainment system.
.Pair cell phone(s) to the vehicle. The
system may not work with all cell
phones. See “Pairing”in this section for
more information.
.If the cell phone has voice dialing
capability, learn to use that feature to
access the address book or contact list.
See “Voice Pass-Thru” in this section for
more information.
.See “Storing and Deleting Phone
Numbers” in this section for more
information.
{Warning
When using a cell phone, it can be
distracting to look too long or too often
at the screen of the phone or the
infotainment system. Taking your eyes
off the road too long or too often could
cause a crash resulting in injury or death.
Focus your attention on driving. A Bluetooth system can use a
Bluetooth-capable cell phone with a
Hands-Free Profile to make and receive
phone calls. The system can be used while
the ignition is on or in ACC/ACCESSORY. The
range of the Bluetooth system can be up to
9.1 m (30 ft). Not all phones support all
functions, and not all phones work with the
in-vehicle Bluetooth system. See
www.gm.com/bluetooth for more
information on compatible phones in U.S.
and Canada only.
Voice Recognition
The Bluetooth system uses voice recognition
to interpret voice commands to dial phone
numbers and name tags.
For additional information, say
“Help”while
you are in a voice recognition menu.
Noise : Keep interior noise levels to a
minimum. The system may not recognize
voice commands if there is too much
background noise.
When to Speak : A short tone sounds after
the system responds indicating when it is
waiting for a voice command. Wait until the
tone and then speak.

How to Speak :Speak clearly in a calm and
natural voice.
Audio System
When using the in-vehicle Bluetooth system,
sound comes through the vehicle's front
audio system speakers and overrides the
audio system. Use the audio system volume
knob, during a call, to change the volume
level. The adjusted volume level remains in
memory for later calls. To prevent missed
calls, a minimum volume level is used if the
volume is turned down too low.
Bluetooth Controls
Use the buttons on the steering wheel to
operate the in-vehicle Bluetooth system. See
Steering Wheel Controls 067.
b/g:Press to answer incoming calls,
confirm system information, and start
speech recognition.
c/x: Press to end a call, reject a call,
or cancel an operation.
Pairing
A Bluetooth-enabled cell phone must be
paired to the Bluetooth system and then
connected to the vehicle before it can be used. See the cell phone manufacturer's user
guide for Bluetooth functions before pairing
the cell phone.
Pairing Information
.A Bluetooth phone with MP3 capability
cannot be paired to the vehicle as a
phone and an MP3 player at the
same time.
.Up to five cell phones can be paired to
the Bluetooth system.
.The pairing process is disabled when the
vehicle is moving.
.Pairing only needs to be completed once,
unless the pairing information on the cell
phone changes or the cell phone is
deleted from the system.
.Only one paired cell phone can be
connected to the Bluetooth system at
a time.
.If multiple paired cell phones are within
range of the system, the system connects
to the first available paired cell phone in
the order that they were first paired to
the system. To connect to a different
paired phone, see
“Connecting to a
Different Phone” later in this section.
Pairing a Phone
1. Press and hold
b/gfor two seconds. 2. Say
“Bluetooth.” This command can be
skipped.
3. Say “Pair.”The system responds with
instructions and a four-digit Personal

with this process, see the cell phone
manufacturer's user guide.
5. Locate the device named “Your Vehicle”
in the list on the cell phone. Follow the
instructions on the cell phone to enter
the PIN provided in Step 3. After the PIN

Driving Information
Driving for Better Fuel Economy
Driving habits can affect fuel mileage. Here
are some driving tips to get the best fuel
economy possible:
.Set the climate controls to the desired
temperature after the engine is started,
or turn them off when not required.
.Avoid fast starts and accelerate smoothly.
.Brake gradually and avoid abrupt stops.
.Avoid idling the engine for long periods
of time.
.When road and weather conditions are
appropriate, use cruise control.
.Always follow posted speed limits or
drive more slowly when conditions
require.
.Keep vehicle tires properly inflated.
.Combine several trips into a single trip.
.Replace the vehicle's tires with the same
TPC Spec number molded into the tire's
sidewall near the size.
.Follow recommended scheduled
maintenance.
Distracted Driving
Distraction comes in many forms and can
take your focus from the task of driving.
Exercise good judgment and do not let other
activities divert your attention away from
the road. Many local governments have
enacted laws regarding driver distraction.
Become familiar with the local laws in
your area.
To avoid distracted driving, keep your eyes
on the road, keep your hands on the
steering wheel, and focus your attention on
driving.
.Do not use a phone in demanding driving
situations. Use a hands-free method to
place or receive necessary phone calls.
.Watch the road. Do not read, take notes,
or look up information on phones or
other electronic devices.
.Designate a front seat passenger to
handle potential distractions.
.Become familiar with vehicle features
before driving, such as programming
favorite radio stations and adjusting
climate control and seat settings. Program
all trip information into any navigation
device prior to driving.
.Wait until the vehicle is parked to
retrieve items that have fallen to the
floor.
.Stop or park the vehicle to tend to
children.
.Keep pets in an appropriate carrier or
restraint.
.Avoid stressful conversations while
driving, whether with a passenger or on a
cell phone.
{Warning
Taking your eyes off the road too long or
too often could cause a crash resulting in
injury or death. Focus your attention on
driving.
Refer to the infotainment section for more
information on using that system and the
navigation system, if equipped, including
pairing and using a cell phone.
Defensive Driving
Defensive driving means “always expect the
unexpected.” The first step in driving
defensively is to wear the seat belt. See
Seat Belts 028.
