". . the manual does not help. "
Are you using the seperate STS Nav System manual?
The 2006 version runs to about 158 pages.
(( You can find a .pdf copy on mygmlink. ))

I have a 2007 SRX with nav. I am not quite sure what you mean by "programing"? If you are trying to enter an address, you must be in the right region for that address.

I take it that you are trying to enter a destination?
You can pick one off the map, but either way, to get started you push the dest button (at least that is true on my SRX), then a menu will pop up.
To work on entering a destination, you must be parked. Once the destinations are in your address list, then you can choose one while driving.
Having looked at the STS interior pictures, I see that you nav is not the same as the SRX's, but your controls are probably all on the touch screen, while some of mine are hard buttons off of the touch screen. So my help will be limited.

On my nav, streets that have an east, west; north or south as part of the name, you type in the basic street name (without the E or W; N or S) and it will ask for the direction part or offer the direction in a list of streets of that name.

Cadillac has their Field Reps drive them, then resell them as used. Last month I bought an 07 STS, V6 AWD with Nav and a Moonroof. It was titled to General Motors, the only purpose to me was that they didn't allow the perception that you could buy a NEW STS for such a discouint. To me it was like buying a Demo. My car was in service 5 months, has 6000 miles, MSRP was $52,400. I bought it outright for $28,000 cash, no trade. This is one of the most stable driving cars I've ever owned. The AWD was awesome this winter in Chicago with the 62" of snow we've had. It's very quiet and comfortable. The options are never ending, even down to the heated and cooled seats.The 6CD Surround Sound is great. The NAV is interesting, as long as I don't hit something while I'm watching the screen. I still haven't tackled programming a destination. Mileage isn't great with the AWD, Instant MPG on cruise at 75 says only 22. Considering a loaded Camry or Accord costs $28K, I couldn't be happier with my deal. There are quite a few 07 STS' advertised around Chicago for around $33K. I looked at a few with similar miles and every dealer noted they were Cadillac owned and driven cars. I jumped on the deal advertised for $5K less than everyone else. Someone made an advertising mistake (I think) and I was there in a flash, didn't ask questions, checked it out, drove it and started counting out cash.
