Hard Drive Device (Hdd) - Cadillac CTS Owner's Manual

7-30 Infotainment System

Hard Drive Device (HDD)

To use the HDD, tracks must be
recorded from a CD, MP3 Disc,
or USB device first.
Recording from Audio Discs
REC (Record): Press to start
recording tracks from the disc while
it is playing. The radio has the
option to record the current track
playing or all tracks from the CD.
Press the softkey under the desired
record option.
The last radio station that was on
begins playing and a status bar
appears on the top of the display
when the recording process starts.
The status bar disappears when the
process has ended. The recorded
songs are now available.
Copy Protected CD(s)
Make sure the disc is not copy
protected. The radio does not copy
a copy-protected CD to the HDD.
Deleting a Recorded Song or
Category
DEL (Delete): Press the DEL
button to delete the track currently
playing or select a track from one of
the song lists.
To delete an entire category, select
a category and press DEL.
Stopping the Recording
While recording from the audio CD,
press the REC button to display the
stop recording option. Press the
softkey under this option to confirm
the selection.
Ejecting a CD or Turning Off the
Vehicle While Recording
If the CD is ejected or the vehicle
is turned off before the recording
process has completed, tracks that
have been completely recorded
are stored to the HDD. Incomplete
tracks are discarded.
Re-recording Audio CDs
If a CD has already been recorded,
the radio system will not record
the contents again. If a partially
recorded CD is selected for
recording, only those songs that are
not already on the HDD will be
recorded.
Audio CD Song, Artist, Album,
and Genre Information
Radios with HDD contain a
®
Gracenote Database that the radio
uses to determine the song, artist,
album, and genre information.
The Gracenote Database allows the
radio to record an audio CD to the
HDD and store the content using
song, artist, album, and genre
information.
Newly released audio CDs as well
as some less common audio CDs
may not be found in the Gracenote
Database stored on the HDD.
