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.
Curb View Assist Mirror (If Equipped)
If your vehicle is equipped with memory mirrors, it will
also be equipped with the curb view assist mirror
feature. This feature will cause the passenger's mirror to
tilt when the vehicle is in REVERSE (R). This feature is
especially useful in allowing you to view the curb when
you are parallel parking. If further adjustment is needed
after the mirror is tilted, the power mirror controls may
be used to adjust the mirror. If the mirror control is
pressed while the passenger's mirror is tilted, the mirror
will move in that direction, but will return to its original
position once the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R)
and a five
-second delay has occurred.
To program the feature, see ªCurb View Assist Mirror
Programmingº in the Index.
Storage Compartments
Glove Box
The glove box is located in front of the passenger's seat.
To lock the glove box door, insert the master key into
the lock cylinder and turn it clockwise. Turn the key
counterclockwise to unlock the door.
Map Pocket
The map/storage pockets are located on each front door as
well as on the passenger's and driver's front seatbacks.

You can turn the system back on at any time by pressing
the button again. The TRACTION READY message
should display briefly on the Driver Information Center.
Braking in Emergencies
With anti-lock, you can steer and brake at the same
time. In many emergencies, steering can help you more
than even the very best braking.
Steering
Power Steering
If you lose power steering assist because the engine
stops or the system is not functioning, you can steer but
it will take much more effort.
Magnasteer
Your vehicle may be equipped with GM Magnasteer, a
system that continuously adjusts the effort you feel
when steering at all vehicle speeds. It provides ease
when parking yet a firm, solid feel at highway speeds.
Steering Tips
Driving on Curves
It's important to take curves at a reasonable speed.
A lot of the ªdriver lost controlº accidents mentioned on
the news happen on curves. Here's why:
Experienced driver or beginner, each of us is subject to
the same laws of physics when driving on curves. The
traction of the tires against the road surface makes it
possible for the vehicle to change its path when you turn
the front wheels. If there's no traction, inertia will keep
the vehicle going in the same direction. If you've ever
tried to steer a vehicle on wet ice, you'll understand this.
The traction you can get in a curve depends on the
condition of your tires and the road surface, the angle
at which the curve is banked, and your speed.
While you're in a curve, speed is the one factor you
can control.
