Outside Power Mirrors
If your vehicle is equipped
with outside power mirrors,
the controls are located
on the driver’s door
armrest.
Move the selector switch located above the control pad
to the left or right to choose the mirror you want to
adjust, then press the dots located on the four-way
control pad to adjust the mirror.
The mirrors include ground illumination lamps (puddle
lamps) in the base of the mirror. For more information on
these lamps, seePuddle Lamps on page 3-16.
The mirrors also include a memory function which works
in conjunction with the memory seats. SeeMemory
Seat on page 2-44.
Outside Power Foldaway Mirrors
If your vehicle is equipped
with this feature, the
controls are located on the
driver’s door armrest.
Move the upper selector switch to the left or right to
choose the mirror you want to adjust; then press the dots
located on the four-way control pad to adjust the mirror.
The mirrors may also include a memory function which
works together with the memory seats. See “Memory
Seats” underMemory Seat on page 2-44for more
information.
To fold or unfold the mirrors, move the selector switch,
located above the mirror control, to the middle position.
The mirror control will illuminate. Press the right or left
side of the mirror control to fold or unfold the mirrors. You
may notice the mirror glass adjust as the mirrors fold in;
this is normal. The mirror glass will reposition itself once
the mirrors are unfolded.

If the mirrors are accidentally folded/unfolded manually,
they may shake or utter at normal driving speeds
and may not stay in the unfolded position. If this
happens, you will need to reset the mirrors. See
“Resetting the Power Foldaway Mirrors” next.
Resetting the Power Foldaway Mirrors
You will need to reset the power foldaway mirrors if the
following occurs:
They are accidentally manually folded/unfolded.
The mirrors will not stay in the unfolded position.
The mirrors shake and utter at normal driving
speeds.
To reset the power foldaway mirrors, fold and unfold
them at least three times using the mirror controls. This
will reset them to their normal position.
Outside Automatic Dimming Mirror
The driver’s outside mirror will adjust for the glare of any
headlamps behind you. This feature is controlled by
the on and off settings on the electrochromic mirror. See
“Electrochromic Mirror Operation” underAutomatic
Dimming Rearview Mirror with OnStar
®, Compass and
Temperature Display on page 2-29.
Outside Curb View Assist Mirrors
If the vehicle has the memory package, the outside
mirrors are able to perform the curb view assist mirror
function. This feature will cause the passenger’s
and/or driver’s mirror to tilt to a preselected position
when the vehicle is in REVERSE (R). This feature may
be useful in allowing the driver to view the curb when
parallel parking. When the vehicle is shifted out of
REVERSE (R) and a short delay has occurred,
the passenger’s and/or driver’s mirror will return to its
original position.
To change the preselected tilt position, adjust the
mirrors to the desired position while the vehicle is in
REVERSE (R). When the vehicle is shifted out of
REVERSE (R), this new position is saved in memory as
the tilt position.
This feature can be turned on or off through the Driver
Information Center (DIC).

Vehicle Personalization
Memory Seat
If your vehicle has this
feature, the controls for the
memory function are
located on the driver’s door.
These buttons are used to program and recall memory
settings for the driver’s seat and both the driver’s
and passenger’s outside mirrors. The settings for these
features can be saved for up to two drivers.To store the memory settings, do the following:
1. While the vehicle is in PARK (P), adjust the driver’s
seat, including the seatback recliner, lumbar, and
side wing area, and both outside mirrors to
your preference.
2. Press and hold the 1 or 2 button of the memory
control for three seconds. A double chime will
sound to let you know that the position has been
stored.
To repeat the procedure for a second driver, follow the
preceding steps, but press the other numbered
memory control button.
Each time button 1 or 2 is pressed and released while
the vehicle is in PARK (P), a single chime will sound and
the memory position will be recalled.
To stop recall movement of the memory seat feature at
any time, press one of the memory buttons or power
seat controls.
