1-4 Memory Seat and Mirrors (Option)
The controls for the memory seat and mirrors are located
on the driver's door panel, and are used to program and
recall previous settings that have been stored.
Adjust the driver's seat (including the lumbar
adjustments) and both outside mirrors to the position
you would like for driving. Then press and hold memory
button 1 for five seconds. A double beep will sound
when the memory is set.
To set the seat and mirror positions for a second driver,
follow the previous steps, but press button 2 instead.When your vehicle is in PARK (P) and a memory button
is pressed, a single beep will sound through the audio
system and the memory position will be recalled.
You can also store an exit position for each driver. The
exit position is programmed by moving the seat to the
desired exit position and then holding the exit button for
five seconds. The exit position set will be for the most
recently selected driving position (1 or 2).
The exit position will be recalled when the exit button is
pressed and will correspond to the driving position that
was recalled last.
Note that selecting a new position with the memory button
will change all other personal choice settings that you have
previously programmed also. See ªPersonal Choice
Programmingº in the Index for further information.
Memory recall will only work when the automatic
transaxle is in PARK (P).

2-54 Power Remote Control Mirrors
Your vehicle has a remote
mirror control located on
the driver's door armrest.
Move the L/R select switch located beneath the mirror
control to choose the left or right mirror.
To adjust the mirror, move the arrow control in the
direction you want the mirror to go. Leave the L/R
select switch in the center position to disable mirror
movement by the four
-arrow control switch. This is
helpful in preventing unwanted mirror movement in
case the control is accidentally bumped while driving.
Adjust each outside mirror so the vehicle is barely
visible in the mirror to maximize your side view.
Parallel Park Assist Mirror (If Equipped)
If you have the optional Memory Seat and Mirrors
feature, the passenger's outside rearview mirror includes
a tilt
-down feature that operates when the shift lever is
in REVERSE (R). This feature assists the driver with
improved rear obstacle detection. When the vehicle is
shifted out of REVERSE (R), the passenger mirror will
return to its original position after a five
-second delay.
This delay prevents movement of the mirror if multiple
gear transitions (REVERSE (R) to AUTOMATIC
OVERDRIVE (
) to REVERSE (R)) occur during a
parallel parking maneuver. This feature can be
programmed on or off through the Personal Choice
selection menu. Vehicles are delivered with this feature
off. See ªDIC Personal Choice Programmingº in the
Index for programming instructions.
Convex Outside Mirror
Your passenger's side mirror may be convex. A convex
mirror's surface is curved so you can see more from the
driver's seat.

SERVICE STABILITY SYSTEM - 54: If you ever
see the SERVICE STABILITY SYSTEM message, it
means there may be a problem with your stability
enhancement system. If you see this message, try to
reset the system (stop; turn off the engine; then start the
engine again). If the SERVICE STABILITY SYSTEM
message still comes on, it means there is a problem. You
should see your dealer for service. Reduce your speed
and drive accordingly.
STABILITY SYSTEM ACTIVE
- 55: You may see
the STABILITY SYSTEM ACTIVE message on the
Driver Information Center. It means that an advanced,
computer
-controlled system has come on to help your
vehicle continue to go in the direction in which you're
steering. This stability enhancement system activates when
the computer senses that your vehicle is just starting to
spin, as it might if you hit a patch of ice or other slippery
spot on the road. When the system is on, you may hear a
noise or feel a vibration in the brake pedal. This is normal.
When the STABILITY SYSTEM ACTIVE message is
on, you should continue to steer in the direction you
want to go. The system is designed to help you in bad
weather or other difficult driving situations by making
the most of whatever road conditions will permit. If the
STABILITY SYSTEM ACTIVE message comes on,
you'll know that something has caused your vehicle to
start to spin, so you should consider slowing down.
DIC Personal Choice Programming
The DIC can be used to program the following personal
choice features available with your vehicle:

Automatic Door Locks

Window Lockout

Security Feedback

Delayed Locking

Perimeter Lighting

Memory Seats

Tilt Mirrors (If Equipped)

Driver ID ON/OFF
For vehicles not equipped with a DIC, see
ªPersonal Choice Programmingº in the Index.
The personal choice settings displayed on the
DIC are determined by the transmitter used to enter
the vehicle. Each remote keyless entry transmitter was
pre
-programmed to belong to DRIVER 1 or DRIVER 2
and is numbered on the back. After the button with the
unlock symbol on a remote keyless entry transmitter is
pressed and the ignition is in RUN, the DIC will display
the identified driver and recall the settings previously
programmed for that driver. The settings can also be
recalled by briefly pressing one of the MEMORY
buttons located on the driver's door.

If you unlock the vehicle using your door key instead of
your transmitter, the DIC will not change drivers and
will recall the information from the last transmitter used
or the last driver using the memory seat controls. If this
happens and you were not the last driver of the vehicle,
simply press your correct driver number on the memory
seat controls or press the button with the unlock symbol
on your remote keyless entry transmitter.

programming instructions.
1. Turn the ignition on and keep the transaxle in

seat control.
3. Press and hold the ENG/MET button for five
seconds. WELCOME TO BUICK OPTION
FEATURE will appear in the display.4. The first choice to be made will be DRIVER ID 1
or 2. Press the ENG/MET button to toggle between
your selections within a display and RESET to
choose the current selection and move on to the next
personal choice feature.
If you would like to exit the selection mode without
moving through each of the personal choice features,
simply press a different button on the DIC or turn off the
ignition. Whatever personal choices you made will still
be retained, even without passing through each of
the features.
If you happen to move past a selection you would like to
make a personal choice for, press the button with the
unlock symbol on your remote keyless entry transmitter
or press the appropriate driver number on the seat
control. This will return you to the beginning of the
option feature programming mode.
