PASS
-Key III uses a radio frequency transponder in the
key that matches a decoder in your vehicle.When the PASS
-Key III system senses that someone is
using the wrong key, it shuts down the vehicle's starter
and fuel systems. The starter will not work and fuel will
stop being delivered to the engine. Anyone using a
trial
-and-error method to start the vehicle will be
discouraged because of the high number of electrical
key codes.
When trying to start the vehicle, if the engine does not
start and the SECURITY light comes on, the key may
have a damaged transponder. Turn the ignition off and
try again.
If the engine still does not start, and the key appears to
be undamaged, try another ignition key. At this time,
you may also want to check the fuse (see ªFuses and
Circuit Breakersº in the Index). If the engine still does
not start with the other key, your vehicle needs service.
If your vehicle does start, the first key may be faulty.
See your dealer who can service the PASS
-Key III to
have a new key made.
It is possible for the PASS
-Key III decoder to learn the
transponder value of a new or replacement key. Up to
10 keys may be programmed for the vehicle. This
procedure is for learning additional keys only.

the ignition on throughout this procedure.
2. Press and hold LOCK on the power door lock switch
throughout this procedure. All the doors will lock.
3. Press the instant alarm on the transmitter. Perimeter
lighting remains off at this time and the horn will
chirp once.
4. Press the instant alarm on the transmitter again.
Perimeter lighting is now enabled and the horn will
chirp twice.
5. Release the door lock switch. The perimeter lighting
feature is now on.
This procedure only changes the mode for the
transmitter used to change this setting. The procedure
will need to be repeated for the second transmitter.
If your vehicle is equipped with the Driver Information
Center (DIC), you must program this feature through
the DIC. See ªDriver Information Center
Personalization Programmingº in the Index.Front Reading Lamps
The front reading lamps, located on the headliner, will
come on as courtesy lamps when you open any of the
doors while it is dark outside. They will also come on as
part of the interior lighting features listed previously.
To turn on a reading lamp when the doors are closed,
press either button. Press it again to turn the lamp off.
To avoid draining your vehicle's battery, be sure to turn
off the reading lamps when leaving your vehicle. See
ªInadvertent Power Battery Saverº later in this section
for more information.

2-55
If your vehicle's battery remains in a heavy discharge
condition for a long period of time, the fan, rear
defogger, heated seats and heated mirrors will be
disabled and the DIC will display BATTERY SAVER
ACTIVE. This can happen either under long periods of
idling or low speed driving with high electrical loading,
or in the event of a charging system fault.
Monitor the battery voltage when in the BATTERY
SAVER ACTIVE mode.

If the voltmeter remains in the shaded area
(below 11 volts) when driving then have the
charging system serviced immediately.

If the voltage increases above 12 volts then the
battery needs to be recharged. Try driving on
the highway with as few electrical accessories on
as possible.
Mirrors
Inside Day/Night Manual Rearview Mirror
When you are sitting in a comfortable driving position,
adjust the mirror so you can see clearly behind your
vehicle. Grip the mirror in the center to move it up or
down and side to side. The day/night adjustment allows
you to adjust the mirror to avoid glare from any
headlamps behind you. Push the tab away from you for
daytime use; pull it toward you for night use.
Electrochromic Day/Night Rearview Mirror
(If Equipped)
Your vehicle may have an automatic electrochromic
day/night rearview mirror. Your vehicle's mirror may
also contain OnStar
 controls.
(On/Off): This is the on/off button for mirrors
equipped with OnStar controls.
When this feature is turned on, the mirror automatically
changes to reduce glare from headlamps behind you. A
photocell on the mirror senses when it is becoming dark
outside. Another photocell built into the mirror face
senses when headlamps are behind you.
At night, when the glare is too high, the mirror will
gradually darken to reduce glare (this change may take a
few seconds). The mirror will return to its clear daytime
state when the glare is reduced.
Mirror Operation
To turn on the automatic dimming feature, press AUTO
(or the on/off button for mirrors equipped with OnStar
controls). To turn off automatic dimming, press OFF
(or the on/off button for mirrors equipped with OnStar
controls). The indicator light will be illuminated when
this feature is active.

When the gage reads in the colored band, a warning
chime will sound and the CHECK GAGES warning
light will come on. You still have a little fuel left, but
you need to get more fuel right away.
On vehicles with a DIC, the CHECK GAGES LOW
FUEL message will be displayed when the fuel gage
reads in the yellow band. See ªDIC Warnings and
Messagesº in the Index for more information.
Here are some things that owners ask about. None of
these show a problem with your fuel gage:

At the service station, the gas pump shuts off before
the gage reads full.

It takes a little more (or less) fuel to fill up than the
gage indicated. For example, the gage may have
indicated the tank was half full, but it actually took a
little more (or less) than half the tank's capacity to
fill the tank.Boost Gage (If Equipped)
Vehicles equipped with
the supercharged engine
have this boost gage
that indicates vacuum
during light to moderate
throttle and boost under
heavier throttle.
The gage displays the air pressure level going into the
engine's combustion chamber.
The gage is automatically centered at zero every time
the ignition key is turned to ON. Actual vacuum or
boost is displayed from this zero point. Changes in
ambient pressure, such as driving in mountains and
changing weather, will slightly change the zero reading.

Choosing Your Zone Number
Locate your zone number on the above map. If your
number is different than the one shown when you
turn the key on, follow the steps to change your
zone number.
If you live on the line, you can pick the zone area you
are most likely to drive in. (In Alaska, use Zone 9 or 10.
In Hawaii, use Zone 7.)Changing Your Zone Number
1. Press MODE to display COMPASS CALIBRATION.
2. Press SELECT to display RESET CHANGES ZONE.
3. Press RESET until your number appears.
4. Press MODE to exit the COMPASS CALIBRATION
MODE and store the new zone number. When the
MODE button is pressed, the DIC will return to the
VEHICLE DATA mode.
Calibrating the Compass
All electronic compasses need to know the magnetic
profile of your vehicle. This is called calibration and is
done automatically by your compass. But, the feature is
available if you would like to manually calibrate.
Sometimes, strong magnetic fields can affect the
compass. If the compass display does not show a
direction, and CALIBRATE COMPASS is displayed on
the DIC, try calibrating the compass as follows:
1. Drive the vehicle to an open, flat area.
2. Press MODE to display COMPASS CALIBRATION.

2-102
3. Press SELECT to display PRESS RESET TO
RECALIBRATE and then press the RESET button.
4. The display will change to SLOWLY DRIVE IN
SMALL CIRCLES. Drive the vehicle in small
circles. Don't drive faster than 10 mph (16 km/h).
5. Continue to drive in circles until the CALIBRATION
COMPLETE is displayed on the DIC and a direction
is shown for the compass.
Your compass should be calibrated. You will know this
when a direction is shown and the CALIBRATE
COMPASS message is no longer displayed.
Compass Accuracy
Your compass may show different headings around
bridges, power lines, large metal objects and steep hills.
This is normal and is true of compasses in general.
If you put large metal objects like golf clubs in the trunk
they could affect accuracy. If the affect is minimal, the
compass will adapt to these objects over time.
If you use an antenna with a magnetic base, it is best
to mount it away from the center of the trunk near the
rear window.The rear defog system can affect accuracy, and the
compass corrects for the rear defog. However, if the rear
defog is turned on while making sharp turns, the
accuracy may be off. When you turn the rear defog off
again, the accuracy returns to normal.
Be aware that metal objects are sometimes buried in the
ground. They can affect accuracy and you may not know
they are there. As an example, many concrete roads
have metal reinforcements inside.
Also, if you drive with the trunk open, this could affect
accuracy and could decalibrate the compass.
Driver Identifier DIC Display
This feature allows two different drivers to store and
recall their own preferred display mode. The
personalization settings displayed on the DIC are
determined by the transmitter used to enter the vehicle.
After the unlock button of a remote keyless entry
transmitter (if equipped) is pressed and the ignition is in
ON, the DIC will display the identified driver. The
settings can also be changed by briefly pressing one of
the MEMORY buttons located on the driver's door.
The DIC is used to program information for DRIVER
#1 and DRIVER #2. The DIC will identify a person as
UNKNOWN DRIVER if they are neither DRIVER #1
nor DRIVER #2.
