safely connecting you in ways 

you never thought possible

Welcome to OnStar!

Safely connecting you in ways you never thought possible.

Congratulations on the purchase of a new OnStar system for your 
vehicle! OnStar is equipped with a comprehensive in-vehicle safety, 
security, navigation and communications system. This Owner’s Guide will 
assist you in becoming familiar with all the functions and services of the 
OnStar system. For additional information, push the 

 

button to talk to 

an Advisor or visit us at www.onstar.com.

Activate your OnStar Mirror

1.     Press the blue OnStar button to connect to an Advisor and enter into a 

Subscription Service Agreement. To enjoy the safety, security and peace of 
mind that OnStar offers, you must maintain an active service subscription. You 
have the choice to maintain your OnStar subscription via credit card billing on a 
month-by-month basis, or you can take advantage of a discounted subscription 
rate by paying for one year in advance, or enjoy more savings by purchasing  
additional years of service. Your new system will not operate without being 
activated by an OnStar Advisor or an active service subscription. If you cannot 
connect to OnStar, please visit your installation facility for service.

2.  Select your plan:

and give the Advisor the current number. If you have forgotten your PIN, press the     
     button. For security reasons, we will mail your PIN to you.
