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.

turn the rear window defogger on or off. Be sure to clear
as much snow from the rear window as possible.
The rear window defogger will turn off about 10 minutes
after the button is pressed, but if the vehicle’s speed

rear window defogger button is on. SeeOutside

Notice:Do not try to clear frost or other material
from the inside of the front windshield and rear
window with a razor blade or anything else that is
sharp. This may damage the rear window defogger
grid and affect your radio’s ability to pick up
stations clearly. The repairs wouldn’t be covered by

Use of non-GM approved hood de ectors may
adversely affect the performance of the system.
Keep the path under the front seats clear of objects
to help circulate the air inside of your vehicle more
effectively.
If the air ow seems low when the fan speed is at
the highest setting, the passenger compartment
air lter may need to be replaced. For more

system. The aim has been preset at the factory and
should need no further adjustment.
However, if the vehicle is damaged in an accident, the
headlamp aim may be affected and adjustment may
be necessary.
If oncoming vehicles ash their high beams at you, this
may also mean the vertical aim needs to be adjusted.

dealer for service if the headlamps need to be re-aimed.
It is possible however, to re-aim the headlamps as
described in the following procedure.The vehicle should be properly prepared as follows:The vehicle should be placed so the headlamps
are 25 ft. (7.6 m) from a light colored wall.
The vehicle must have all four tires on a level
surface which is level all the way to the wall.
The vehicle should be placed so it is perpendicular
to the wall.
The vehicle should not have any snow, ice, or
mudonit.
The vehicle should be fully assembled and all other
work stopped while headlamp aiming is being
performed.
The vehicle should be normally loaded with a full
tank of fuel and one person or 160 lbs (75 kg)
