2006 GMC YUKON window

In order to calibrate, CAL must be displayed in the
mirror compass windows. If CAL is not displayed, push
in the COMP button for approximately eight seconds
or until CAL is displayed.
The compass can be calibrated by driving the vehicle
in circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less until the display
reads a direction.
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 the vehicle is
outside zone eight. Under certain circumstances,
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.
To adjust for compass variance:
1. Find your current location and variance zone
number on the following zone map.2. Press and hold the COMP button for ve seconds
until a zone number appears in the display.
3. Press the COMP button on the bottom of the mirror
until the new zone number appears in the display.
After you stop pressing the button, the display
will show a compass direction within a few seconds.

Outside Curb View Assist Mirrors
If the vehicle has the memory package, the outside
mirrors are able to perform the curb view assist mirror
function. This feature will cause the passenger’s
and/or driver’s mirror to tilt to a preselected position
when the vehicle is in REVERSE (R). This feature may
be useful in allowing the driver to view the curb when
parallel parking. When the vehicle is shifted out of
REVERSE (R) and a short delay has occurred,
the passenger’s and/or driver’s mirror will return to
its original position.
To change the preselected tilt position, adjust the
mirrors to the desired position while the vehicle is in
REVERSE (R). When the vehicle is shifted out of
REVERSE (R), this new position is saved in memory
as the tilt position.
This feature can be turned on or off through the Driver
Information Center (DIC). SeeDriver Information
Center (DIC) on page 3-52for more information.
Outside Convex Mirror
Your passenger’s side mirror is convex. 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.
Outside Heated Mirrors
The vehicle may have outside heated mirrors which
help clear them of condensation, snow, and ice.
When the rear window defogger button is pressed,
the heated mirrors are also turned on. See “Rear
Window Defogger” underDual Automatic Climate
Control System on page 3-25orDual Climate Control
System on page 3-23for more information.

Climate Controls
Climate Control System
Fan Knob
The fan knob on the left side of the control panel
adjusts the fan speed. To increase airow, turn the knob
clockwise. To decrease airow, turn it counterclockwise.
To turn the fan off, turn the knob to the off position.
9(Off):If the fan is off, outside air will still enter the
vehicle, and will be directed based on the position of
the mode knob. The temperature can also be adjusted
using the temperature knob.
Temperature Knob
The middle knob on the control panel lets you select the
temperature of the air owing into the passenger area.Turn the knob clockwise toward the red area for
warmer air. Turn the knob counterclockwise toward the
blue area for cooler air.
Mode Knob
The right knob on the control panel allows you to
choose the direction of air delivery.
H(Vent):This setting directs the air through the
instrument panel outlets.
)(Bi-Level):Air is delivered through the oor outlets
as well as the instrument panel outlets. The ow can
be divided between vent and oor outlets depending
upon where the knob is placed between the settings.
6(Floor):This setting directs most of the air through
the oor outlets, and the rest of the air is divided
between the windshield defroster outlets and the side
window defroster outlets.
W(Defog):Airow is delivered through the oor
outlets, the windshield defroster outlets and the side
window defroster outlets. The air ow can be divided
between oor and defrost depending upon where
the knob is placed between the settings.

Dual Climate Control System
With this system you can control the heating, cooling
and ventilation for your vehicle.
9(Fan):Turn the left knob clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or decrease the fan speed.
Turn the knob to the off position to turn off the fan.
If the knob is in off outside air will still enter the vehicle,
and will be directed based on the position of the
mode knob. The temperature can also be adjusted
using the temperature levers.
Turn the right knob clockwise or counterclockwise to
direct the airow inside of your vehicle.To change the current mode, select one of the following:
H(Vent):This mode directs air to the instrument
panel vents.
)(Bi-Level):This mode directs half of the air to
the instrument panel vents; then directs most of the
remaining air to the oor vents. A little air is directed
toward the windshield and the side window vents.
Cooler air is directed to the upper vents and warmer
air to the oor vents.
6(Floor):This mode directs most of the air to the
oor vents with a little air directed to the windshield and
the side window vents.
@(Recirculation):The recirculation mode is used
to recirculate the air inside of your vehicle. Use this
mode to help prevent outside odors and/or dust from
entering your vehicle or to help cool the air inside of
your vehicle more quickly. Press this button to turn
the recirculation mode on or off. The light on the
recirculation button will illuminate. Recirculation cannot
be used in oor, defog or defrost modes. An indicator
on the button will light up, ash three times and
turn off when recirculation is selected in these modes.
The air-conditioning compressor will also come on when
this mode is activated. While in recirculation mode
the windows may fog when the weather is cold and
damp. To clear the fog, select either the defog or defrost
mode and increase fan speed.

Temperature Control
Driver’s Side:The lever on the left side of the climate
control panel is used to raise or lower the temperature on
the driver’s side of the vehicle. This lever also adjusts the
temperature to the center console outlets (if equipped).
Passenger’s Side:The lever on the right side of the
climate control panel is used to raise or lower the
temperature on the passenger’s side of the vehicle.
#(Air Conditioning):Press this button to turn
the air-conditioning system on or off. When the button

system will begin to cool and dehumidify the air inside
of your vehicle. You may notice a slight change in
engine performance when the air conditioning
compressor shuts off and turns on again. This is
normal.
Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of the windows is a result of high
humidity (moisture) condensing on the cool window
glass. This can be minimized if the climate control
system is used properly. There are two modes to choose
from to clear fog or frost from your windshield. Use the
defog mode to clear the windows of fog or moisture
and warm the passengers. Use the defrost mode
to remove fog or frost from the windshield more quickly.
Turn the right knob to select one of the following modes:
-(Defog):This mode directs the air to the oor
outlets, windshield and the side window vents.
The air conditioning compressor will run automatically
to dehumidify the air to prevent window fogging.
The recirculation mode cannot be selected while in the
defog mode.
1(Defrost):This mode directs most of the air to the
windshield and the side window vents, with only a
little air directed to the oor vents. The air conditioning
compressor will run automatically to dehumidify the
air to prevent window fogging. The recirculation mode
cannot be selected while in defrost mode.
Do not drive the vehicle until all the windows are clear.
