Getting Started - Cadillac 2008 XLR Owner's Manual

Getting Started

Before you begin to operate the navigation system, read
this manual thoroughly to become familiar with it and
to understand how the system works.
Any route suggestions made by this navigation system
may never override local traffic regulations, your
own judgement, and/or knowledge of safe driving
practices.
Disregard route suggestions made by the navigation
system if such suggestions would; cause you to perform
a hazardous or illegal maneuver, place you in a
hazardous situation, or route you into an area you
consider unsafe.
4-4
Keeping your mind on the drive is important for safe
driving. See Defensive Driving on page 5-2 for
more information. Get familiar with your vehicle's
navigation system so you can use it with less effort
and take full advantage of its features. Your navigation
system includes not only navigation, but also audio
functions. While your vehicle is parked:
•
Familiarize yourself with all of its controls: hard
keys on the faceplate and touch-sensitive screen
buttons.
•
Familiarize yourself with its operation.
•
Set up your audio by presetting your favorite stations,
setting the tone, and adjusting the speakers. Then,
when driving conditions permit, you can tune to your
favorite stations using the presets and steering wheel
controls (if equipped).
•
Set up the navigation features that can only be done
before you begin driving, such as entering an
address or a preset destination.
