Buick Enclave: Navigation System. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). Radio Frequency Statement

Buick Enclave 2008-2017 Owners Manual / Customer Information / Reporting Safety Defects / Navigation System. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). Radio Frequency Statement

Navigation System

If the vehicle has a navigation system, use of the system may result in the storage of destinations, addresses, telephone numbers, previous routes, points of interest, and other trip-related information. This stored information can make the system more convenient to use, especially when returning to frequently visited places or reviewing recent destinations.

Because navigation data may include personal travel details, owners should review the navigation manual for information about stored data and deletion instructions. This can be especially useful before selling the vehicle, returning a leased vehicle, lending the vehicle to another driver, or clearing old route information from the system.

For a Buick Enclave equipped with navigation, periodically reviewing saved destinations and address book entries can help keep the system organized and protect personal trip information from being left in the vehicle longer than needed.

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)

RFID technology is used in some vehicles for functions such as tire pressure monitoring and ignition system security. It may also be used with convenience features such as key fobs for remote door locking and unlocking, remote starting, and in-vehicle transmitters for garage door openers.

RFID technology allows certain vehicle systems and devices to communicate using radio frequency signals over a short range. These signals help the vehicle recognize authorized devices, monitor specific components, or operate convenience features without requiring a direct physical connection.

RFID technology in GM vehicles does not use or record personal information and does not link with any other GM system containing personal information. The system is designed for vehicle function, identification, and convenience purposes rather than personal tracking.

Radio Frequency Statement

This vehicle has systems that operate on a radio frequency and comply with Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules and with Industry Canada Standards RSS-GEN/210/220/310. These systems may include remote entry, security, tire pressure monitoring, OnStar-related communication equipment, garage door transmitter functions, or other wireless features depending on vehicle equipment.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1. The device may not cause harmful interference.
2. The device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

In everyday use, this means that radio frequency systems must operate within approved limits and may occasionally be affected by outside interference from other devices, buildings, environmental conditions, or nearby transmitters. If a wireless feature does not respond as expected, the cause may not always be a failed component.

Changes or modifications to any of these systems by anyone other than an authorized service facility could void authorization to use this equipment. For that reason, repairs, replacements, or programming related to radio frequency systems should be handled carefully and with proper service information.
