Dual assignment instructions (long button press)

The BX-GM6 has the capability to assign (2) functions to a single button. 

Follow the steps below to program the button(s) to your liking.

Note:  

Volume Up, Volume Down, and PTT (OnStar) cannot be dual assigned. 

Note:

“Seek-Up” and “Seek-Down” come pre-programmed as “Preset-Up” and 

“Preset-Down” for a long button press.

1)  Turn on the ignition but do not start the vehicle.

2)  Press and hold down the steering wheel control button that you want to assign 

a long press function to for about 10 seconds, or until the L.E.D. flashes rapidly. 

At this point release the button; the L.E.D. will then go solid.

3)  Press and release the “Volume Up” button the number of times corresponding 

to the new button number selected. Refer to the Dual Assignment Legend. The 

L.E.D. will flash rapidly while the “Volume-Up” is being pressed, and go back 

to a solid L.E.D. once released. Go to the next step once the “Volume-Up” has 

been pressed the desired number of times.

Caution:

If more than 10 seconds elapses between pressing “Volume-Up”, this 

procedure will abort, and the L.E.D. will go out.

4)  To store the long press button in memory, press the button that you assigned a 

long press button to (the button held down in Step 1). The L.E.D. will now go off 

indicating the new information has been stored.

Note:

These steps must be repeated for each button you would like to assign dual 

purpose feature to. To reset a button back to its default state, repeat Step 1, and 

then press the “Volume Down” button. The L.E.D. will go off, and the long press 

mapping for that button will be erased.
