®
The vehicle may have an automatic dimming inside
rearview mirror with OnStar®controls. For more
information about OnStar®, seeOnStar®System on
page 2-40.
O(On/Off):The on/off button, located on the lower
left side of the mirror, is used for the automatic dimming

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 2-40.
The mirror has an eight-point compass display in the
upper right corner of the mirror. When on, the compass

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.

Mirror Operation
The automatic dimming feature comes on each time the
vehicle is started.
To turn the automatic dimming feature on or off, press
the on/off button. The indicator light will illuminate
when this feature is on.
Compass Operation
Press the on/off button twice 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 direction.
Compass Calibration
If after two 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 appears in the compass window, the compass
may need to be reset or calibrated.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 calibrated 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, 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.
2-36
Page 103 of 442
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. 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.

Outside Power Heated Mirrors
The controls on the driver’s door armrest operates both
outside rearview mirrors.
Press the left or right mirror symbol on the selector
control to choose the driver’s side or passenger’s side
mirror. The center position is off and will not move
the mirrors if the directional control pad is touched.Once the mirror to be adjusted is selected, use the
arrows on the directional control pad to move the mirror.
Adjust each mirror so you can see the side of the
vehicle and the area behind it.
The mirrors can be manually folded inward to prevent
damage when going through an automatic car wash or a
con ned space. 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.
The preferred position can be stored in memory if the
vehicle has the memory option. SeeMemory Seat
and Mirrors on page 2-53for more information.
When the rear window defogger is turned on, both
outside rearview mirrors are heated to help clear them
of ice, snow, and condensation. See “Rear Window
Defogger” underDual Climate Control System on
page 3-25for more information.

Outside Automatic Dimming Mirror
The driver’s outside mirror may have an automatic
dimming feature that helps to reduce glare from other
vehicles headlamps. This feature is controlled by the on
and off settings on the automatic dimming rearview
mirror. SeeAutomatic Dimming Rearview Mirror
with OnStar
®on page 2-35.
Outside Curb View Assist Mirror
If the vehicle has memory seat and mirrors, it will also
be capable of adjusting 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
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 tilted,
the mirror controls can be used. SeeOutside Power
Heated Mirrors on page 2-38for more information.
Outside Convex Mirror
{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.
The passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror’s surface is curved so that more can be seen
from the driver’s seat. The mirror does not have
a dimming feature.
