Matching Transmitter(s) to Your
Vehicle
Each RKE transmitter is coded to prevent another
transmitter from unlocking your vehicle. If a
transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can be
purchased through your GM dealer. Remember to
bring any additional transmitters so they can also
be re-coded to match the new transmitter. Once
your dealer has coded the new transmitter, the lost
transmitter will not unlock your vehicle. The vehicle
can have a maximum of eight transmitters matched
to it. See “Remote Key” underDIC Controls and
Displays on page 212.

Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your RKE
transmitter should last about four years.
You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter
will not work at the normal range in any location.
If you have to get close to your vehicle before
the transmitter works, it is probably time to change
the battery.
The REPLACE BATTERY IN REMOTE KEY
message in the vehicle’s DIC will display if the
RKE transmitter battery is low. See “REPLACE
BATTERY IN REMOTE KEY” underDIC Warnings
and Messages on page 221for additional
information.
Notice:When replacing the battery, use care
not to touch any of the circuitry. Static from
your body transferred to these surfaces may
damage the transmitter.To replace the battery in the RKE transmitter do
the following:
1. Insert a at object with a thin edge into the
notch, located below the trunk release button,
and separate the bottom half from the top half
of the transmitter.
2. Remove the old battery, but do not use a
metal object to do this.

Ignition Positions
With the ignition key in the ignition, the key can be
turned to four different positions:
Notice:Using a tool to force the key from the
ignition switch could cause damage or break
the key. Use the correct key and turn the key
only with your hand. Make sure the key is in all
the way. If none of this works, then your vehicle
needs service.A (OFF):This is the only position in which the
ignition key can be inserted or removed. This
position locks the ignition and transaxle. It is a
theft-deterrent feature.
B (ACCESSORY):This position lets the radio
and windshield wipers operate while the engine is
off. To use ACCESSORY, turn the key clockwise.
C (RUN):This position is where the key returns
to after the vehicle is started. This position displays
some of the warning and indicator lights.
The battery could be drained if you leave the key in
the ACCESSORY or RUN position with the engine
off. You may not be able to start your vehicle if the
battery is allowed to drain for an extended period
of time.
D (START):This position starts the engine.
A warning chime will sound and the Driver
Information Center (DIC) will display DRIVER
DOOR OPEN when the driver’s door is opened if
the ignition is in OFF, ACCESSORY and the key is

Compass Calibration
Press and hold the on/off button to activate the
compass calibration mode. CAL will be displayed
in the compass window on the mirror.
The compass can be calibrated by driving the
vehicle in circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less until
the display reads a direction.
Compass Variance
Compass variance is the difference between earth’s
magnetic north and true geographic north. The
mirror is set to zone eight upon leaving the factory.
It will be necessary to adjust the compass to
compensate for compass variance if you live
outside zone eight. Under certain circumstances,
such as during a long distance cross-country trip,
it will be necessary to adjust for compass variance.
If not adjusted to account for compass variance,
your compass could give false readings.
To adjust for compass variance, do the following:
1. Find your current location and variance
zone number on the following zone map.2. Press and hold the on/off button for
six seconds. Release the button when (FOR
ZONE) is displayed. The number shown is the
current zone number.
3. Scroll through the zone numbers that appear in
the window on the mirror by pressing the on/off
button. Once you nd your zone number,
release the button. After about four seconds,
the mirror will return to the compass display,
and the new zone number will be set.

Automatic Dimming Rearview Mirror
with Compass
Your vehicle may have an automatic dimming
rearview mirror with a compass. This feature
enables the mirror to sense nighttime glare from
vehicle headlamps from behind and automatically
dim to reduce the glare to a safe level. The
automatic dimming feature turns on each time the
vehicle is started.
O(On/Off):This is the on/off button.
Automatic Dimming Mirror Operation
The automatic dimming mirror function is turned on
automatically each time the ignition is started. To
operate the automatic dimming mirror, do the
following:
1. Make sure the indicator light, located to the left
of the on/off button, is on. If it’s not, press and
hold the on/off button until the light comes on,
indicating that the mirror is in automatic
dimming mode.
2. Turn off the automatic dimming mirror function
by pressing and holding the on/off button until
the indicator light turns off.
Compass Operation
Press the on/off button once to turn the compass
on or off.
When the ignition and the compass feature are
on, the compass will show two character boxes for
a few seconds. After a few seconds, the mirror
will display the current compass direction.
Compass Calibration
If after a few seconds the display does not show a
compass direction, (N for North for example), there
may be a strong magnetic eld interfering with the
compass. Such interference may be caused by a
magnetic antenna mount, note pad holder, or
similar object. If the letter C or CAL appears in the
compass window, the compass may need to be
reset or calibrated.
The compass can be calibrated by driving the
vehicle in circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less until the
display reads a direction.

Compass Variance
Compass variance is the difference between earth’s
magnetic north and true geographic north. If the
mirror is not adjusted for compass variance, the
compass could give false readings.
The mirror is set in zone eight upon leaving the
factory. It will be necessary to adjust the compass
to compensate for compass variance if the
vehicle is driven outside zone eight. Under
certain circumstances, such as a long distance,
cross-country trip, it will be necessary to adjust the
compass variance.
To adjust for compass variance, do the following:
1. Find your current location and variance
zone number on the zone map. SeeAutomatic
Dimming Rearview Mirror with OnStar
®and
Compass on page 130for map information.
2. Press and hold the on/off button until a zone
number appears on the display.
3. Once the zone number appears on the display,
press the on/off button quickly until you reach
the correct zone number. If C or CAL appears
in the compass window, the compass may
need calibration. See “Compass Calibration”
listed previously.
Outside Power Mirrors
The controls for the
outside power mirrors
are located on the
driver’s door armrest.
Press the left or right side of the selector switch
located beneath the control pad to choose the left
or right mirror.
To adjust the mirror, press one of the four arrows
located on the control pad to move the mirror
in the direction you want it to go. Adjust each
outside mirror so that you can see a little of your
vehicle, and the area behind your vehicle.
The mirrors may also have an arrow that ashes
when the turn signal is used. SeeTurn and
