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 thatautomatically 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 tunnelsmay 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 other
communication systems,
depending on the equipped
options. Keep clear of
obstructions for clear
reception. If the vehicle has a
sunroof, and it is open,
reception can also be affected.

240 Driving and Operating
Avoid driving on wet ice or in
freezing rain until roads can be
treated.
For Slippery Road Driving:
.Accelerate gently.
Accelerating too quickly
causes the wheels to spin
and makes the surface under
the tires slick.
.Turn on Traction Control.
See Traction Control/
Electronic Stability Control
0267.
.The Antilock Brake System
(ABS) improves vehicle
stability during hard stops,
but the brakes should be
applied sooner than when on
dry pavement. See Antilock
Brake System (ABS) 0264.
.Allow greater following
distance and watch for
slippery spots. Icy patches
can occur on otherwise clear
roads in shaded areas. The
surface of a curve or an
overpass can remain icy
when the surrounding roads are clear. Avoid sudden
steering maneuvers and
braking while on ice.
.Turn off cruise control.
.Select All-Wheel Drive (AWD)
Mode for vehicles equipped
with AWD. Select Snow/Ice
Mode for FWD only vehicles.
See Driver Mode Control
0
269 and
All-Wheel Drive 0263.
Cold Weather Mode
In very low temperatures, a
cold weather message may
display on the Driver
Information Center (DIC). The
engine speed, transmission
shift patterns, and cabin fan
speed may operate differently
to enable the vehicle to warm
up quicker. You can manually
override the cabin fan speed in
cold weather mode.
Blizzard Conditions
Stop the vehicle in a safe
place and signal for help. Stay
with the vehicle unless there is
help nearby. If possible, use Roadside Assistance. See
Roadside Assistance Program
0
439. To get help and keep
everyone in the vehicle safe:
.Turn on the hazard warning
flashers.
.Tie a red cloth to an outside
mirror.
{Warning
Snow can trap engine
exhaust under the vehicle.
This may cause exhaust
gases to get inside. Engine
exhaust contains carbon
monoxide (CO), which cannot
be seen or smelled. It can
cause unconsciousness and
even death.
If the vehicle is stuck
in snow:
.Clear snow from the base
of the vehicle, especially
any blocking the
exhaust pipe.

Warning (Continued)
.Open a window about
5 cm (2 in) on the vehicle
side that is away from the
wind, to bring in fresh air.
.Fully open the air outlets
on or under the
instrument panel.
.Adjust the climate control
system to circulate the air
inside the vehicle and set
the fan speed to the
highest setting. See
“Climate Control Systems.”
For more information about
CO, see Engine Exhaust
0 256.
To save fuel, run the engine
for short periods to warm the
vehicle and then shut the
engine off and partially close
the window. Moving about to
keep warm also helps.
If it takes time for help to
arrive, when running the
engine, push the accelerator
pedal slightly so the engine runs faster than the idle
speed. This keeps the battery
charged to restart the vehicle
and to signal for help with the
headlamps. Do this as little as
possible, to save fuel.
If the Vehicle Is Stuck
Slowly and cautiously spin the
wheels to free the vehicle
when stuck in sand, mud, ice,
or snow.
If stuck too severely for the
traction system to free the
vehicle, turn the traction
system off and use the rocking
method. See Traction Control/
Electronic Stability Control

{Warning
If the vehicle's tires spin at
high speed, they can
explode, and you or others
could be injured. The vehicle
can overheat, causing an
engine compartment fire or
other damage. Spin the
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
wheels as little as possible
and avoid going above
56 km/h (35 mph).
For All-Wheel Drive (AWD),
select Off-Road or AWD mode.
See Driver Mode Control
0 269 and
All-Wheel Drive 0263.
Rocking the Vehicle to Get
it Out
Turn the steering wheel left
and right to clear the area
around the front wheels. Turn
off any traction system. Shift
back and forth between
R (Reverse) and a low forward
gear, spinning the wheels as
little as possible. To prevent
transmission wear, wait until
the wheels stop spinning
before shifting gears. Release
the accelerator pedal while
shifting, and press lightly on
the accelerator pedal when
the transmission is in gear.

accessory mode and display
the message SHIFT TO PARK
in the Driver Information
Center (DIC).
When the vehicle is shifted
into P (Park), the ignition will
turn off.
{Warning
Turning off the vehicle while
moving may cause loss of
power assist in the brake
and steering systems and
disable the airbags. While
driving, only shut the vehicle
off in an emergency.
If the vehicle must be shut off
in an emergency: 1. Brake using a firm and steady pressure. Do not
pump the brakes
repeatedly. This may
deplete power assist,
requiring increased brake
pedal force.
2. Shift the vehicle to N (Neutral). This can be
done while the vehicle is
moving. After shifting to
N (Neutral), firmly apply the
brakes and steer the
vehicle to a safe location.
3. Come to a complete stop and shift to P (Park).

Without Head-Up Display
If ACC is engaged, driver
action may be required when
ACC cannot apply sufficient
braking because of
approaching a vehicle too
rapidly.
When this condition occurs,
the collision alert symbol will
flash on the windshield. Either
eight beeps will sound from
the front, or both sides of the
Safety Alert Seat will pulse
five times. Touch the Settings
icon on the infotainment home

See Defensive Driving 0230. Approaching and Following a
Vehicle
The vehicle ahead indicator is
in the instrument cluster and
HUD display, if equipped.
The vehicle ahead indicator
only displays when a vehicle is
detected in your vehicle’s path
moving in the same direction.
If this symbol is not displaying,
ACC will not respond to or
brake for vehicles ahead.
ACC automatically slows the
vehicle down and adjusts
vehicle speed to follow the
vehicle in front at the selected
follow gap. The vehicle speed
increases or decreases to
follow the vehicle in front of
you, but will not exceed the
set speed. It may apply limited
braking, if necessary. When braking is active, the brake
lamps will come on. The
automatic braking may feel or
sound different than if the
brakes were applied manually.
This is normal.
Passing a Vehicle While
Using ACC
If the set speed is high
enough, and the left turn
signal is used to pass a vehicle
ahead in the selected
following gap, ACC may assist
by gradually accelerating the
vehicle prior to the lane
change.
{Warning
When using ACC to pass a
vehicle or perform a lane
change, the following
distance to the vehicle being
passed may be reduced.
ACC may not apply
sufficient acceleration or
braking when passing a
vehicle or performing a lane
