8 (Lock): Press lock to lock all the doors. Press lock
again within three seconds and the horn may chirp.
2 (Panic): When the button with the horn symbol on
the key transmitter is pressed, the horn will sound
and the headlamps and taillamps will flash for up

Matching Transmitter(s) to Your
Vehicle
Each remote keyless entry transmitter is coded to
prevent another transmitter from unlocking your vehicle.
If a transmitter is
lost or stolen, a replacement can
be purchased through your dealer. Remember to bring
any remaining transmitters with you when you go
to
your dealer. When the dealer matches the replacement
transmitter
to your vehicle, any remaining transmitters
must also be matched. Once your dealer has coded the
new transmitter, the
lost transmitter will not unlock
your vehicle. Each vehicle can have a maximum of four
transmitters matched to it.
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 RFA
## BATTERY LOW message when the transmitter
battery is
low.
Nofice: 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.

Mirrors Mirror Operation
Automatic Dimming Rearview Mirror
with Onstar@ and Compass
Your vehicle may have an automatic-dimming rearview
mirror with a compass and the Onstar@ system.
(!J (On/Off): This is the on/off button for the automatic
dimming feature and compass.
There are three additional buttons for the Onstar@
system. See your dealer for more information on
the system and how to subscribe to Onstar@. See
Onstar@ System on page 2-35 for more information
about the services Onstar@ provides. When
turned on, this mirror automatically dims to the
proper level to minimize glare from any headlamps
behind you after dark.
The automatic dimming feature is turned on and off by
pressing the far left button, located on the lower
part of the mirror face, for up to three seconds.
A light
on the mirror will be lit while the feature
is turned 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. The compass displays
a maximum of two characters. For example,
“NE”
is displayed for north-east.

Compass Calibration
Press and hold the on/off button down 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 in one of two ways:
Drive the vehicle in circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less
drive the vehicle on your everyday routine. (This
until
the display shows “CAL”, or
method may take longer
to calibrate.)
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, do the following:
1. Find your current location and variance zone
number on the map.
2. Press and hold the on/off button for six seconds.
Release the button when
“ZONE” is displayed.
The number shown is the current zone number.
3. Scroll through the zone numbers that appear in the
compass/temperature window on the mirror by
pressing the
on/off button. Once you find 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.

more from the driver’s seat.
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right or left lane,
you could hit a vehicle. Check your inside
mirror or glance over your shoulder before
changing lanes.
Outside Heated Mirrors
Your vehicle may have this feature,
When you operate the rear window defogger, a defogger
also warms the heated driver’s and passenger’s
outside rearview mirrors to help clear them of ice, snow
and condensation.

Automatic Operation Manual Operation
AUTO
(Automatic): When automatic operation is
active, the system will control the inside temperature,
the air delivery mode, and the fan speed.
Use the steps below to place the entire system in
automatic mode:
1. Press the AUTO button.
When AUTO is selected, the air conditioning
operation and air inlet will be automatically
controlled. The air conditioning compressor will run
when the outside temperature is over approximately
40°F (4°C). The air inlet will normally be set to
outside air. If it’s hot outside, the air inlet will
automatically switch to recirculate inside air to help
quickly cool down your vehicle.
2. Set the driver’s and passenger’s temperature.
To find your comfort setting, start with a 72°F (22°C)
temperature setting and allow about 20 minutes
for the system to regulate. Turn the driver’s or
passenger’s side temperature knob to adjust the
temperature setting as necessary. If you choose the
temperature setting
of 60°F (15”C), the system
will remain at the maximum cooling setting.
If you
choose the temperature setting of 90°F
(32”C),
the system will remain at the maximum heat setting.
Choosing either maximum setting may not cause
the vehicle to heat or cool any faster. To change
the current setting, select one of the
following:
v (Fan): This button allows you to manually
adjust the fan speed. Press the up arrow to increase fan
speed and the down arrow to decrease fan speed.
The display will change to show you the selected fan
speed and the driver’s side temperature setting for five
seconds.
@* *d (Mode): Press this button to manually change the
direction of the airflow in your vehicle. Keep pressing the
button until the desired mode appears on the display.
The display will change to show you the selected
air delivery mode and the driver’s temperature setting
for five seconds.
2 (Vent): This mode directs air to the instrument
panel outlets.
+2 (Bi-Level): This mode directs approximately half of
the air to the instrument panel outlets, then directs
the remaining air to the floor outlets. A little air is
directed toward the windshield and the side window
outlets. Cooler air is directed to the upper outlets and
warmer air to the floor outlets.
3-22

4; (Floor): This mode directs most of the air to the
floor outlets. Some air also comes out of the defroster
and side window outlets. The recirculation button cannot
be selected in floor mode.
&I (Recirculation): Press this button to turn
recirculation mode on or
off. When this button is
pressed, an indicator light in the button will also come
on
to let you know that it is activated. Recirculation
mode is used
to recirculate the air inside of your vehicle.
Use this mode to help prevent outside odors and/or
dust from entering your vehicle or to help cool the air
inside of your vehicle more quickly. Recirculation
mode can be used with vent and bi-level modes, but it
cannot be used with floor, defog or defrost modes.
If the weather
is cold and damp, the system may cause
the windows to fog while using recirculation mode. If the
windows do start to fog, select defog or defrost mode.
)#t A/C (Air Conditioning): Press this button to
manually turn the air conditioning system on or
off.
When the system is on, the system will automatically
begin to cool and dehumidify the air inside of your
vehicle.
If you select air conditioning off while in front defrost or
defog mode, the air conditioning
off symbol will flash
to let you know this is not allowed. You
may notice a slight change in engine performance
when the air-conditioning compressor shuts
off and
turns on again. This is normal.
(Air Conditioning Off): When you turn the air
conditioning
off, this symbol will appear on the display.
When the air conditioning is selected or in AUTO mode,
the system will run the air conditioning automatically.
Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of high humidity
(moisture) condensing on the cool window glass. This
can be minimized
if the climate control system is
used properly. You can use either defog or front defrost
to clear fog or frost from your windshield.
+3 (Defog): Use this setting to clear the windows of fog
or moisture. This setting will deliver air
to the floor
and windshield outlets.
@ (Front Defrost): Press the front defrost button to
defrost the windshield. The system will automatically
control the fan speed
if you select defrost from AUTO
mode. If the outside temperature is
40°F (4°C) or
warmer, your air conditioning compressor will
automatically run to help dehumidify the air and dry the
windshield.
Do not drive the vehicle until all the
windows are clear.
