With OnStar® Personal Calling, you have a safer way to stay connected while driving. It's a hands-free wireless phone that's integrated into your vehicle. You can place calls nationwide using voice-activated dialing with no contracts and no additional roaming charges. To find out more about OnStar® Personal Calling, refer to the OnStar® user's guide in your vehicle's glove box, or call OnStar® at 1-888-4-ONSTAR (1-888-466-7827).

With OnStar® Virtual Advisor you can listen to the news, entertainment and informative topics, such as traffic and weather reports. You are able to listen and reply to your e-mail through your vehicle's speakers.

You can use the steering wheel controls with OnStar®.

The controls are located on the left side of the steering wheel.

Press the top part of the control to access OnStar®. You will hear a ready prompt from the system, and then you can begin your OnStar® session or begin making calls.

If your vehicle has the optional Navigation system or cellular phone, the ready prompt will come from that system first. You must say the word phone to access OnStar®.

If your vehicle has both optional systems, the ready prompt will come from the Navigation system first. When you say the word phone after the ready prompt, you will access the cellular phone.

If you prefer to use OnStar® to make calls, you must repeat the word phone again after the cellular phone ready prompt.

To end a communication session, press the bottom part of the control that says END.
