The messages that do not require
immediate action can be acknowledged and
cleared by pressing
V. The messages that
require immediate action cannot be cleared
until that action is performed.
All messages should be taken seriously;
clearing the message does not correct the
problem.

Propulsion Power Messages
REDUCED ACCELERATION DRIVE
WITH CARE
This message displays when the vehicle's
propulsion power is reduced. A reduction in
propulsion power can affect the vehicle's
ability to accelerate. If this message is on,
but there is no observed reduction in
performance, proceed to your destination.
Under certain conditions, the performance
may be reduced the next time the vehicle is
driven. The vehicle may be driven while this
message is on, but maximum acceleration
and speed may be reduced. Anytime this
message stays on, or displays repeatedly,
the vehicle should be taken to your dealer
for service as soon as possible.
This message can be displayed when the
high voltage battery charge level is low. This
is normal behavior as the vehicle is limiting
power due to reduced battery capability. Under certain operating conditions
propulsion will be disabled. Try restarting
after the vehicle has been off for
two minutes.
PROPULSION POWER REDUCED DUE TO
TEMPERATURE
This message displays when the vehicle is
on, the battery temperature is low, and
when the vehicle’s performance is limited.
The duration of the limited vehicle
performance depends, in part, on the high
voltage battery charge level. If the high
voltage battery charge level is relatively
high, as the vehicle is driven, the battery
temperature will increase, and the vehicle
will return to normal operation. If the high
voltage battery charge level is relatively low
the vehicle will not return to normal
operation until charged.
Keep the vehicle plugged in, even when fully
charged, to keep the high voltage battery
temperature ready for the next drive. This is
important when outside temperatures are
extremely hot or cold.

Universal Remote System
SeeRadio Frequency Statement 0404.
Universal Remote System
Programming
If equipped, the Universal Garage Door
(Universal Remote) controls are located on
the infotainment screen.
This system can replace up to eight remote
control transmitters used to activate devices
such as garage door openers, security
systems, and home automation devices.
These instructions refer to a garage door
opener, but can be used for other devices. Do not use the Universal Remote system
with any garage door opener that does not
have the stop and reverse feature. This
includes any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982.
Keep the original hand-held transmitter for
use in other vehicles as well as for future
programming. Erase the programming when
vehicle ownership is terminated. See
“Erasing Universal Remotes.”
To program a garage door opener, park
outside directly in line with and facing the
garage door opener receiver. Clear all people
and objects away from the garage door.
Make sure the hand-held transmitter has a
new battery for quick and accurate
transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
Programming the Universal Remote
System
Programming involves time-sensitive actions
and may time out, requiring the procedure
to be repeated. Read these instructions
completely before programming the
Universal Remote system. It may help to
have another person assist with the
programming process. 1. On the infotainment home screen,
navigate to the Universal Remote
controls.
2. Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter about 3 to 8 cm (1 to 3 in)
away from the rear-view mirror. The
hand-held transmitter was supplied by
the manufacturer of the garage door
opener.
3. Select the “Add Remotes” option on the
infotainment screen.
4. Press and hold the hand-held transmitter button. Do not release the hand-held
transmitter button until “Signal Found”
appears on the infotainment screen.
5. Once the signal is found, test the Universal Remote System by pressing the
Test button. If your garage door moves,
then programming was successful. You
may need to press the Test button
several times. Indicate the successful
programming of a remote by pressing
the It Worked button. After successfully
programming a remote, there is no need
to complete Steps 6–10.

6. If your garage door does not reactduring testing, press the It Didn’t Work
button and proceed to Step 7.
The following steps require the location
and pressing of the Learn or Smart
button on the garage door opener
receiver inside the garage. These steps
may require a ladder and are time
sensitive.
7. Locate the Learn or Smart button on the garage door opener receiver in the
garage. The name and color may vary by
manufacturer but is usually located near
the antenna wire.
8. Press and release the Learn or Smart button on the garage door opener
receiver. Step 9 must be completed
within 30 seconds of pressing this
button.
9. Press the Test button on the infotainment screen. If your garage door
moves, then programming was
successful. You may need to press the
Test button several times. Indicate
successful programming by pressing the
It Worked button. 10. If programming is not successful,
press It Didn’t Work button and repeat
Steps 8–9, or consult HomeLink by
website or phone.
After your Universal Remote has been
successfully programmed, you can change
the name of the remote on the screen as
desired.
Some garage door openers require a
modification of Step 4. See “Radio Signals
for Some Gate Operators.”
For questions or programming help, visit
www.homelink.com/gm for self-help videos
or call 1–800–355–3515. For calls placed
outside the U.S., Canada, or Puerto Rico,
international rates will apply and may differ
based on landline or mobile phone.
Erasing Universal Remotes
To erase a programmed Universal Remote,
select the remote on the infotainment
screen. Then select “Delete.”
To erase ALL programmed Universal
Remotes, select any remote on the
infotainment screen. Then select
“Delete All.”
Radio Signals for Some Gate Operators
Some gate operators and radio-frequency
laws 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 programming did not work, replace Step 4
under “Programming the Universal Remote
System,” with the following:
Press and release the hand-held transmitter
button every two seconds until the signal
has been found by the Universal Remote
System. Proceed to Step 5 under
“Programming the Universal Remote
System” to complete programming.
