The destination download lets an OnStar® subscriber ask an OnStar Advisor to download a destination to the navigation system. OnStar will send address information and location coordinates of the destination into the navigation system.
Using Destination Download
If the navigation radio screen is turned off before a download, the system automatically turns the screen on and displays a download confirmation message. The radio remains on after the download.
The navigation system displays “Please wait” as the address is searched within the map database.
If the address is not found within the map database, the system may use latitude and longitude coordinates to locate the destination.
If the system is unable to locate the address, the Destination Not Found screen displays.
