Matching Transmitter(s) To Your
Vehicle
Each key chain 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 the remaining
transmitter with you when you go to
your dealer. When the dealer matches
the replacement transmitter to your
vehicle, the remaining transmitter must
also be matched. Once the new
transmitter is coded, the lost
transmitter will not unlock your vehicle.
You can match a transmitter to as many
different vehicles as you
own, provided
they are equipped with exactly the same
model system. (General Motors offers
several different models of these
systems on their vehicles.) Each vehicle
can have only two transmitters matched
to it. See your dealer to match
transmitters to another vehicle.

Compass
The compass shows the direction your
vehicle is facing whenever the engine is
running. For best accuracy, it should be
calibrated:
Whenever it displays the message
“CALIBRAT/COMPASS”
Whenever it doesn’t seem to be
showing the correct direction.
Mobile telephones, two-way radios,
and other electronic devices can
cause inaccurate compass readings
if they are placed near the
compass, and
you may need to
recalibrate the compass.
To Calibrate the Compass:
1. Drive to an open area, like a large
empty parking lot.
You need to be
able to drive safely
in circles. Be sure
the place is not only free
of other
vehicles but also away from power
lines or large metal buildings.
2. With the engine running and all
accessories
off, press CAL. The word
“CALIB” will appear.
3. Be sure there’s no traffic, then slowly
drive in a circle. Don’t
go faster than
5 mph (8 ldh), because the vehicle
needs to stay level. The compass will
orient itself.
4. When the compass is oriented, the
word “CALSET” will appear. Locate
north and point the front
of the
vehicle at north.
5. Press NORTH. The words “N SET”
will appear. Your compass is now
calibrated.
If you travel more than 500 miles
(804 km) east or west, you can quickly
recalibrate
to compensate for variations
in the earth’s magnetic field. Simply
point the front of the vehicle at true
north and press
NORTH.
