OnStar ® Virtual Advisor
OnStar ® Virtual Advisor is a feature of OnStar ®
Hands-Free Calling that uses your minutes to
access location-based weather, local traffic reports,
and stock quotes. By pressing the phone button
and giving a few simple voice commands, you can
browse through the various topics. See the
OnStar
® Owner’s Guide for more information.
(Only available in the continental U.S.)
Additional OnStar ® Controls
Your vehicle may be
equipped with a
Talk/Mute button that
can be used to interact
with OnStar
®
Hands-Free Calling.
It is located on the driver’s side of the instrument
panel.
When calling into voice mail systems, or to dial
directory numbers, press the control, wait for the
“number please” response”, say the number(s) to
be dialed, wait for the number(s) to be repeated and
then say “dial”. See the OnStar
® Owner’s Guide for
more information.
How OnStar ® Service Works
In order to provide you with OnStar ® services, your
vehicle’s OnStar ® system has the capability of
recording and transmitting vehicle information. This
information is automatically sent to an OnStar
® Call
Center at the time of an OnStar ® button press,
Emergency button press or if your airbags or AACN
system deploys. The vehicle information usually
includes your GPS location and, in the event of a
crash, additional information regarding the accident
that your vehicle has been involved in (e.g. the
direction from which your vehicle was hit). When
you use the Virtual Advisor feature of OnStar
®
Hands-Free Calling, your vehicle also sends
OnStar
® your GPS location so that we can provide
you with location-based services.
OnStar
® service cannot work unless your vehicle is
in a place where OnStar ® has an agreement with a
wireless service provider for service in that area.
OnStar
® service also cannot work unless you are in
a place where the wireless service provider
OnStar
® has hired for that area has coverage,
network capacity and reception when the service is
needed, and technology that is compatible with the
OnStar
® service. Not all services are available
everywhere, particularly in remote or enclosed
areas, or at all times.
