Outside Power Mirrors
If your vehicle has this
feature, the controls are
located on the driver’s door
armrest.
Move the selector switch to the left or right to choose
the driver’s or passenger’s mirror, then use the
arrows located on the four-way control pad to move the
mirror in the direction you want the mirror to go.
Put the selector switch back in the center position when
finished adjusting the mirror so that you don’t
accidentally bump into the control pad and get the
mirror out of adjustment.
Outside Convex Mirror
A convex mirror’s surface is curved so you can see
more from the driver’s seat.
{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.

Outlet Adjustment
The flow through outlets on your vehicle allow outside
air to enter your vehicle while it is moving. Outside
air will also enter your vehicle while the air-conditioning
compressor is running.
Use the thumbwheels located in the center and on the
sides, to change the direction of the air flowing
through the outlets.
Operation Tips
•
Clear away any ice, snow or leaves from the air
inlets at the base of the windshield that may
block the flow of air into your vehicle.
•Use of non-GM approved hood deflectors may
adversely affect the performance of the system.
•Keep the path under the front seats clear of objects
to help circulate the air inside of your vehicle more
effectively.
