Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote keyless
entry transmitter should last about two years.
You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter won’t
work at the normal range in any location. If you have
to get close to your vehicle before the transmitter works,
it’s probably time to change the battery.
The Driver Information Center (DIC) will display a KEY
FOB # BATTERY LOW message when the transmitter
battery is low.
Notice:When replacing the battery, use care not to
touch any of the circuitry. Static from your body
transferred to these surfaces may damage the
transmitter.To replace the battery in the remote keyless entry
transmitter do the following:
1. Insert a thin coin in the slot between the covers of
the transmitter housing. Gently pry the transmitter
apart.
2. Remove and replace the battery with a three-volt
CR2032 or equivalent battery.
3. Align the covers and snap them together.
4. Check the operation of the transmitter.

3. Clip the second row safety belts into the retainers.
They are mounted on the pillars below where the
safety belt passes through the trim panel. This
prevents the safety belt from being tangled in the
midgate when opening or closing the midgate.
4. Press the midgate release button located on the
driver’s side of the midgate while pulling the
release handle.
5. Lower the midgate and secure it in the down
position by engaging the midgate to the oor
support. The latch for the oor support is found on
the driver’s side of the vehicle.
Raising the Midgate
To return the midgate to its normal position, release the
midgate by pulling up on the lever found on the
driver’s side midgate support. Reverse the steps for
lowering the midgate listed previously. The midgate
must be fully latched on both sides before the midgate
glass can be raised.
Tailgate
Your vehicle is equipped with a tailgate which can be
swung out or opened at. It can be locked and unlocked
with the driver or passenger door power lock button
or the remote keyless entry transmitter. The tailgate has
power rear glass. The glass must be fully lowered to
open the tailgate to its at position.
The power roof and tailgate must both be fully closed to
raise the rear glass. If the roof or tailgate are not fully
closed, the words CLOSE THE ROOF or CLOSE
THE TAILGATE will appear on the DIC when you try
to raise the rear glass.
If the tailgate drop/swing, power roof, rear wiper and
rear window defogger functions are inoperative, or
SEE MANUAL– TAILGATE is displayed on the Driver
Information Center, the tailgate window position needs to
be reset. To reset the window position, activate the
tailgate window up switch and continue to hold it
for two seconds after the window is fully closed.
Then activate the tailgate window down switch and
continue to hold it for two seconds after the window is
fully open. If this process does not restore function,
see your dealer for service.

rearview mirror so you can see clearly behind your
vehicle. Grip the mirror in the center to move it up or
down and side to side. The day/night control, located at
the bottom of the mirror, adjusts the mirror to reduce
headlamp glare from behind during evening or dark
conditions. Turn the control clockwise for night
use; return it to the center for daytime use.
Manual Rearview Mirror with
OnStar
®
The vehicle may have a rearview mirror with the
OnStar®system.
Control buttons for the OnStar
®system are at the
bottom of the mirror. See your GM dealer for more
information on the OnStar
®system and how to
subscribe to OnStar®. Also, seeOnStar®System on
page 2-52for more information about the services
OnStar
®provides.
Mirror Operation
While sitting in a comfortable driving position, adjust the
rearview mirror so you can see clearly behind your
vehicle. Grip it in the center to move it up or down and
side to side. The day/night control, located at the
bottom of the mirror, adjusts the mirror to reduce
headlamp glare from behind during evening or dark
conditions. Move the control to the right for night
conditions. Return it to the center for daytime.
Manual Rearview Mirror with
Compass
The vehicle may have a manual rearview mirror with an
eight-point compass display located in the upper right.
Mirror Operation
While sitting in a comfortable position, adjust the
rearview mirror so you can see clearly behind your
vehicle. Grip it in the center and move it up or down and

Compass Display
O
(On/Off):Press this button to turn the compass on
or off. The compass display, can show a maximum
of two characters. For example, NE is displayed
for north-east.
When the ignition and the compass/temperature feature
are on, character boxes will appear for about two
seconds. After two seconds, the mirror will display the
direction the vehicle is facing.
Compass Calibration
When on, the compass automatically calibrates as the
vehicle is driven. 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, magnetic
note pad holder, or a similar magnetic item. If the
letter C should ever appear in the compass window,
the compass may need calibration.Press and hold the on/off button for nine seconds to
activate the compass calibration mode. CAL will
be displayed in the compass window on the mirror.
The mirror can be calibrated by driving the vehicle in
circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less until the display shows
a direction.
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 conditions, 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, the compass could
give false readings.
2-43

To adjust for compass variance do the following:
1. Find the current location and variance zone number
on the following zone map.
2. Press and hold the on/off button until a zone
number appears in the display.
3. Once a zone number appears in the display, press
the on/off button quickly until the correct zone
number appears in the display. If C appears in
the compass window, the compass may need
calibration. See “Compass Calibration”
explained previously.Manual Rearview Mirror with

the direction the vehicle is facing and the outside
temperature.
To set the temperature in Fahrenheit or Celsius,
do the following:
1. Press and hold the on/off button until either a
ashing F or C appears.
