Map Data Updates

The map data in the vehicle is the
most up-to-date information
available when the vehicle was
produced. The map data is updated
periodically, provided that the map
information has changed and the
vehicle has a relevant service plan.
Over-the-Air-Vehicle Map
Updates
If equipped, the infotainment system
can receive map updates over the
air. Map updates occur within a
161 km (100 mi) radius around the
home address on file. This
boundary will adjust over time
based on driving patterns. The
vehicle uses a Cloud-connected
service to receive the date and
downloads it to the system s
onboard SD card, if equipped.
A data plan or compatible mobile
device hotspot is required. The SD
card is required for navigation
system function.
When a map update is available, a
prompt will appear on the
infotainment display. Once the
update is accepted, it will download
and run in the background without
interruption any infotainment
functions. The download will carry
over ignition cycles, stopping and
starting where it left off. The
updates can be set to download
automatically.
See www.gmnavdisc.com for details
on ordering, purchasing, and
installing a new or replacement SD
card. Features are subject to
change. For more information on
this feature, see my.buick.com/
learn.

Database Coverage

Explanations

Coverage areas vary with respect to
the level of map detail available for
any given area. Some areas feature
greater levels of detail than others.
If this happens, it does not mean
there is a problem with the system.
As the map data is updated, more
detail can become available for
areas that previously had limited
detail. See Map Data Updates
0 182.

Voice Recognition

If equipped, voice recognition allows
for hands-free operation within the
navigation, audio, phone, and
weather applications. This feature
can be started by pressing
steering wheel or touching
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 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 touching one or
two options, and are not supported
by voice commands.
In general there are flexible ways to
speak commands for completing the
tasks.
