Mirrors
Automatic Dimming Rearview Mirror
with OnStar
®
The vehicle may have an automatic dimming inside
rearview mirror with OnStar®controls. For more
information about OnStar®, seeOnStar®System on
page 2-43.
O(On/Off):The on/off button, located on the lower left
side of the mirror, is used for the automatic dimming
functions of the rearview mirror.
Mirror Operation
The automatic dimming feature comes on each time the
vehicle is started. Automatic dimming reduces the
glare of lights from behind the vehicle.
To turn the automatic dimming feature on or off, press
and release the on/off button. The indicator light will
come on when this feature is on.
Passenger Airbag Indicator
The mirror may have a passenger airbag indicator on
the mirror glass, just above the buttons. If the vehicle
has this feature, the mirror will display the word ON, or
an airbag symbol in Canada, when the passenger
airbag is enabled. SeePassenger Sensing System on
page 1-63for more information.
Cleaning the Mirror
When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or similar
material dampened with glass cleaner. Do not spray
glass cleaner directly on the mirror as that may cause
the liquid cleaner to enter the mirror housing.
Automatic Dimming Rearview Mirror
with OnStar
®and Compass
The vehicle may have an automatic dimming inside
rearview mirror with a compass and OnStar®controls.
For more information about OnStar®, seeOnStar®
System on page 2-43.
The mirror has an eight-point compass display in the
upper right corner of the mirror. When on, the compass
automatically calibrates, or sets the driving direction,
as the vehicle is driven. If the vehicle has the navigation
option, the direction the vehicle is facing will be
displayed on the navigation screen.
O(On/Off):The on/off button is located on the lower
left side of the mirror and is used for the automatic
dimming and compass functions of the rearview mirror.

Outside Power Mirrors
The control on the driver’s
door armrest operates both
outside rearview mirrors.
Press the left or right mirror symbol on the selector switch
to choose the driver’s side or passenger’s side mirror.
The center position turns the control off so that the
mirrors will not move if the control pad is touched.
Once a mirror is selected, use the arrows on the control
pad to move the mirror to the correct direction. Adjust
each mirror so you can see the side of your vehicle and
the area behind your vehicle.
The mirrors can be manually folded inward to prevent
damage when going through an automatic car
wash. To fold, push the mirror toward the vehicle.To return the mirror to its original position, push outward.
Be sure to return both mirrors to their original unfolded
position before driving.
If the vehicle has the memory package, the mirrors can
be programmed for personalization and curb view
assist. For more information, seeMemory Seat and
Mirrors on page 2-52andDIC Vehicle Personalization
on page 3-70.
Outside Curb View Assist Mirror
If the vehicle has the memory seat and mirrors,
the passenger’s mirror can be tilted to a preselected
position when the vehicle is shifted into REVERSE (R).
Use this outside curb view assist feature to view the
curb when parallel parking.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R) and
after a ve-second delay, the passenger’s mirror
will return to its original position.
If further adjustment is needed after the mirror is in a tilted
position, the mirror controls can be used. SeeOutside
Power Mirrors on page 2-42for more information.
The outside curb view assist can be turned or off
through the Driver Information Center (DIC). See
DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-70for more
information.

the parking brake is not set on a manual transmission.
If you would like the stored driving positions to be

position has been saved.4. Repeat the procedure for a second driver using
memory seat button 2 or the remote keyless
entry transmitter with the number 2 on the back.
To recall the stored exit positions, press and release the
exit button. One beep will sound, and the seat will
move to the previously stored exit position for the
currently identied driver. If an exit position has not
been stored for this driver, the seat will move all the way
back. The position of the outside mirrors is not stored
or recalled for the exit position.
If your vehicle has an automatic transmission, the
vehicle must be in PARK (P) to recall the exit positions.

be set to recall the stored exit positions.
Three chimes will sound and the exit setting will not be
recalled if you press the exit button when the vehicle
is not in PARK (P) on an automatic transmission or the
parking brake is not set on a manual transmission.
If you would like your stored exit position to be recalled
when unlocking the vehicle with the remote keyless
entry transmitter or when the ignition is turned off and
the driver’s door is opened, seeDIC Vehicle
Personalization on page 3-70.
