XM NavTraffic allows drivers to make the most informed, timesaving routing decisions.
XM NavTraffic currently broadcasts the traffic information for many markets nationally, and the service may be available in more cities in the future. Visit xmnavtraffic.com for more details on local coverage. Traffic Icon The Traffic Icon appears on the Traffic Tab, next to the word Traffic, when traffic is found in the local area. A service fee is required in order to receive the XM NavTraffic service. Turning XM NavTraffic™ On and Off To turn traffic on or off: 1.

Rear Vision Camera Options (Acadia, Enclave, OUTLOOK, and Traverse Only) The vehicle may be equipped with a Rear Vision Camera system and/or a Rear Park Assist to enhance awareness of what is behind your vehicle.
Global Positioning System (GPS) The navigation system determines the position of the vehicle by using satellite signals, various vehicle signals, and map data. At times, other interferences such as the satellite condition, road configuration, the condition of the vehicle and/or other circumstances can interfere with the navigation system’s ability to determine the accurate position of the vehicle.
Vehicle Positioning • The vehicle is entering and/or exiting a parking lot, garage, or a lot with a roof. At times, the position of the vehicle on the map may be inaccurate due to one or more of the following reasons: • The road system has changed. • The vehicle is driving on slippery road surfaces such as in sand, gravel, and/or snow. • The vehicle is traveling on winding roads. • The vehicle is on a long straight road. • The vehicle is approaching a tall building or a large vehicle.
Problems with Route Guidance Inappropriate route guidance could occur under one or more of the following conditions: • You have not turned onto the road indicated. • Route guidance may not be available when using automatic rerouting for the next right or left turn. • The route may not be changed when using automatic rerouting. • There is no route guidance when turning at an intersection. • Plural names of places may be announced occasionally.
Ordering Map DVDs The map DVD in the vehicle is the most up-to-date information available when the vehicle was produced. The map DVD is updated periodically, provided that the map information has changed. For any questions about the operation of the navigation system or the update process, contact the GM Nav Disc Center toll-free phone number, 1-877-NAV-DISC (1-877-628-3472) or go to the center’s website, gmnavdisc.com.
