Infotainment System

OnStar System

OnStar System (8 Inch Screen)

4G LTE

If equipped with 4G LTE, up to seven
devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and
laptops, can be connected to high-speed
Internet through the vehicle

s built-in Wi-Fi

hotspot.

Call 1-888-4ONSTAR (1-888-466-7827) to
connect to an OnStar Advisor for assistance.
See www.onstar.com for vehicle availability,
details, and system limitations. Service and
connectivity may vary by make, model,
year, carrier, availability, and conditions. 4G
LTE service is available in select markets. 4G
LTE performance is based on industry
averages and vehicle systems design. Some
services require a data plan.

The OnStar App

If equipped, the infotainment system has
OnStar controls in the embedded OnStar app
on the Home Page. All OnStar functions that
can be performed with the buttons can be
done using the app. To open the app, select
the OnStar icon on the Home Page. Features

vary by region and model. Features are
subject to change. For more information on
this feature, see my.buick.com/learn

Voice Recognition

Voice Recognition (8 Inch Screen)

If equipped, voice recognition allows for
hands-free operation within the navigation,
audio, phone, and weather applications. This
feature can be started by pressing

g

on the

steering wheel controls or by touching

g

on

the infotainment display.

However, not all features within these areas
are supported by voice commands.
Generally, only complex tasks that require
multiple manual interactions to complete
are supported by voice commands.

For example, tasks that take more than one
or two touches such as selecting a song or
artist to play from a media device would be
supported by voice commands. Other tasks,
like adjusting the volume or seeking up or
down, are audio features that are easily
performed by pressing one or two controls,
and are not supported by voice commands.

In general there are flexible ways to speak
commands for completing the tasks. Most of
them, except voice keypad, can be
completed in a single command. If the task
takes more than one command to complete,
the first command should be to indicate the
kind of task to be performed. The system
replies with prompts that lead you through
a dialog to enter the necessary information.

Voice recognition can be used when the
ignition is on or when Retained Accessory
Power (RAP) is active.

Using Voice Recognition

Voice recognition becomes available once
the system has been initialized. This begins
when the ignition is turned on. Initialization
may take a few moments.

1. Press

g

on the steering wheel controls

to activate voice recognition, or touch

g

on the infotainment display.

2. The audio system mutes and the system

plays a prompt followed by a beep.

3. Wait until after the beep completes,

then clearly speak one of the commands
described in this section.
