The mirror has an eight-point compass display in the
upper right corner of the mirror face and a three
-button
OnStar system. There are also two map lamps located on
the bottom of the mirror. Each lamp is turned on or off
with a switch located next to the lamp.
The automatic dimming feature is turned on or off by
pressing the far left button, located on the lower part of
the mirror face, for up to three seconds. If the button is
pressed and held for five to seven seconds, the compass
display will go blank.
There are three buttons for the OnStar system. See your
dealer for more information on the system and how to
subscribe to OnStar. See ªOnStar

Systemº in the Index
for more information on the services OnStar provides.Compass Calibration
Press the on/off button for eight seconds to activate
the compass calibration mode. The letter ªCº will be
displayed in the compass window of 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
until the display indicates a direction, or

drive the vehicle on your everyday routine.
Compass Variance
The mirror is set in 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. Compass variance is
the difference between earth's magnetic north and
true geographic north. If not adjusted to account
for compass variance, your compass could give
false readings.

2-49
To adjust for compass variance do the following:
1. Find your current location and variance zone number
on the following zone map.2. Make sure the compass is in calibration mode.
See ªCompass Calibrationº in the Index.
Press the on/off button to display the zone number.
3. Scroll through the zone numbers that appear in
the compass window of the mirror. Once you find
your zone number in the window, release the on/off
button. After about four seconds, the mirror will
return to the compass display, and the new zone
number will be set. (Compass calibration may be
necessary. See ªCompass Calibrationº in the Index).

Trip Odometer
Your trip odometer (trip mode) tells you how far you
have driven since you last reset it. To set it to zero, press
and hold the TRIP RESET button on the left side of the
instrument panel for two to three seconds.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed in thousands
of revolutions per minute (rpm).
NOTICE:
Do not operate the engine with the tachometer in
the shaded area, or engine damage may occur.

3-7 Manual Control of the Automatic System
If you prefer to manually control the heating, cooling
and ventilation in your vehicle, set the system to the
temperature and fan speed you want. Next, push the
mode button to select your desired airflow direction.
The system will try to maintain the temperature you set
using the mode you select. The following suggestions
will help the system run more efficiently in manual mode.
Fan Button
: The button below the display is used to manually
select the force of air you want. The display will show
the fan speed. Fan control is no longer automatic, but
the system remains in auto temperature control.
If the airflow seems very low when the fan knob is turned
to the highest setting regardless of the mode setting, your
passenger compartment air filter (if equipped) may need to
be replaced. See ªMaintenance Scheduleº in the Index.
Econ Button
Press the ECON button to turn the compressor on and
off. The indicator light is illuminated when the
compressor is off. AUTO will be not be illuminated, but
the system will maintain automatic air delivery and fan
speed control. The system will attempt to control the
temperature without the help of the compressor.Mode Button
The MODE button is used to control the direction of
airflow when the system is not in AUTO. The first press
will display the current airflow direction. Repeated
pressing will cycle through the following air flow
directions shown in the display.
UPPER: This setting directs air through the
instrument panel outlets.
BI-LEV: This setting directs air two ways. Half of
the air is directed through the instrument panel outlets.
Most of the remaining air is directed through the floor
ducts and a little to the defrost and side window vents.
LOWER: This setting sends most of the air
through the ducts near the floor. The rest comes out of
the defrost and side window vents. When using this
mode and RECIRC, the windows may fog up when the
weather is cold and damp. See ªRecirculationº in the
Index for more information.
DEFOG: This setting allows half of the air to go
to the floor ducts and half to the defrost and side
window vents. The air conditioning compressor will run
automatically in this setting unless the outside
temperature is below 38
F (3.3
C). (Even when the
compressor is running, you can control the temperature).

3-8
DEFROST: This setting directs most of the air
through the defrost and side window vents. Some of
the air goes to the floor ducts. The air conditioning
compressor will run automatically in this setting unless
the outside temperature is below 38
F (3.3
C).
(Even when the compressor is running, you can control
the temperature).
RECIRC: This setting recirculates the air inside
of your vehicle. This setting is not available in defog or
defrost mode. When operating the system in the
RECIRC mode, the windows may fog up when the
weather is cold and damp. To clear the fog, select either
the DEFOG or DEFROST mode and increase the fan
speed. To avoid re
-fogging of the windows, use the
OUTSIDE AIR mode.
OUTSIDE AIR: This setting brings in outside air.
Air Conditioning
On very hot days, open the windows long enough to let
hot, inside air escape. This reduces the time the
compressor has to run, which should help fuel economy.
For quick cool
-down on very hot days, use UPPER and
RECIRC. If this setting is used for long periods of time,
the air in your vehicle may become too dry.For normal cooling on hot days, use UPPER and
OUTSIDE AIR with the compressor on. The system will
bring in outside air and cool it.
On cool but sunny days, the sun may warm your upper
body, but your lower body may not be warm enough. To
remedy this, you can use BI
-LEV with the compressor
on. The system will bring in outside air and direct it to
your upper body, while sending slightly warmed air to
your lower body. You may notice this temperature
difference more at some times than others.
Heating
On cold days use LOWER. The system will bring in
outside air, heat it and send it to the floor ducts.
If your vehicle has an engine coolant heater, you can use
it to help your system provide warm air faster when it's
cold outside (0
F (
-18
C) or lower). An engine coolant
heater warms the coolant your engine and heating
system use to provide heat. See ªEngine Coolant
Heaterº in the Index.
