weather conditions like severe icing, the window will
stop and open to a factory preset position. The
window functions normally once the obstruction is

Mirrors
Manual Rearview Mirror with
OnStar
®
When you are sitting in a comfortable driving
position, adjust the mirror so you can see clearly
behind your vehicle. Hold the mirror in the
center to move it up or down and side to side. The
day/night adjustment allows you to adjust the
mirror to avoid glare from the lamps behind you.
Move the lever to the right for nighttime use and to
the left for daytime use.
There may also be three OnStar
®buttons located
at the bottom of the mirror face. SeeOnStar®
System on page 145for more information.
Automatic Dimming Rearview Mirror
with OnStar
®and Compass
Your vehicle may have an automatic-dimming
rearview mirror with a compass.There may be three additional buttons for the
OnStar
®system. See your dealer/retailer for more
information on the system and how to subscribe
to OnStar
®. SeeOnStar®System on page 145for
more information about the services OnStar®
provides.
O(On/Off):This is the on/off button.
Automatic Dimming Mirror Operation
The automatic dimming mirror comes on each time
the ignition is turned to start. To turn the
automatic dimming feature off or back on, press
the on/off button. The indicator light on the mirror is
lit when the automatic dimming feature is on.
Compass Operation
Press the on/off button once to turn the compass
on or off.
There is a compass display in the window in the
upper right corner of the mirror face.
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.
140

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.
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.
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:
1. Find your current location and variance zone
number on the following zone map.
2. Press and hold the on/off button until the zone
number is displayed. The number shown is
the current zone number.
141

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. If C or CAL appears in the
compass window, the compass may need
calibration. See “Compass Calibration” listed
previously.
Outside Power Mirrors
If your vehicle is
equipped with outside
power mirrors, the
controls are located on
the driver’s door
armrest.Press (A) to select the driver’s side mirror or (B) to
select the passenger’s side mirror. Press either (A)
or (B) again to deselect the mirror.
To adjust each 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.
SeeMemory Seat and Mirrors on page 13for more
information.
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.
The use of hood-mounted air deectors and
add-on convex mirror attachments may adversely
affect mirror performance.
Turn Signal Indicator
Your vehicle may have a turn signal indicator on
the mirror. An arrow on the mirror will ash in
the direction of the turn or lane change.
