Mirrors
Automatic Dimming Rearview Mirror

rearview mirror. The mirror also contains OnStar®
controls. For more information about OnStar®,
seeOnStar®System on page 2-40.
O(On/Off):This is the on/off button, located on the

Automatic Dimming Rearview Mirror
with OnStar
®and Compass
Your vehicle may have an automatic dimming inside
rearview mirror with a compass. The mirror also contains
OnStar
®controls. For more information about OnStar®,
seeOnStar®System on page 2-40.

2-35

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
approximately two seconds. After two seconds, the
mirror will display the current compass heading.
Compass Calibration
If after two seconds the display does not show a
compass heading (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
should ever appear in the compass window, the compass
may need calibration.
The mirror can be calibrated by driving the vehicle in
circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less until the display reads a
direction.
The compass can be placed in calibration mode by
pressing and holding the on/off button until a C is shown
in the compass display.
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, your 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 you live outside
zone eight. Under certain circumstances, such as a long
distance, cross-country trip, it will be necessary to
adjust the compass variance.
2-36

To adjust for compass variance, do the following:
1. Find your current location and variance zone
number on the zone map that follows.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. Stop pressing the button
and the mirror will return to normal operation.
If C appears in the compass window, the compass
may need calibration. See “Compass Calibration”
listed previously.
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.
2-37

Outside Power Heated Mirrors
The control on the driver’s door armrest operates both
outside rearview mirrors.
Press the left mirror symbol on the selector switch to
choose the driver’s side mirror or the right mirror symbol
to choose the passenger’s side mirror. The center
position is off and will not move the mirrors if the control
pad is touched.Once you select the mirror you want to adjust, use the
arrows on the control pad to move the mirror in the
direction you want the mirror to go. 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.
When you operate the rear window defogger, it also
warms both outside rearview mirrors to help clear them
of fog or ice. See “Rear Window Defogger” under
Dual Climate Control System on page 3-26for more
information.Outside Automatic Dimming Mirror
Your driver’s side mirror may have an automatic
dimming feature. This helps to reduce glare from the
headlamps of vehicles behind you.
2-38

Outside Curb View Assist Mirror
If your vehicle is equipped with the memory seat and
mirrors, it will also be capable of performing the
curb view assist mirror feature. This feature will cause
the passenger’s mirror to tilt to a preselected position
when the vehicle is shifted into REVERSE (R). Use this
feature to view the curb when you are parallel parking.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R)
and a ve-second delay has occurred, the passenger’s
mirror will return to its original position.
If further adjustment is needed after the mirror is tilted,
the mirror controls can be used. SeeOutside Power
Heated Mirrors on page 2-38for more information.
This feature can be enabled/disabled through the DIC.
SeeDIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-73for
more information.
Outside Convex Mirror
Your passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror’s surface is curved so you can see more from
the driver’s seat.
{CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder
before changing lanes.
