Delayed Locking
With this feature, you can delay the actual locking
of the doors.
When the power door lock switch or the lock
button on the remote keyless entry transmitter is
pressed when the key is not in the ignition and the
driver’s door is opened, a chime will sound
three times indicating that delayed locking is
active.
When all the doors are closed, the doors will lock
automatically after ve seconds. If a door is
reopened before ve seconds have elapsed, the
ve second timer will reset itself once all the doors
are closed again.
You can press the door lock switch or the lock
button on the remote keyless entry transmitter
again to override this feature and lock the doors
immediately.
You can turn this feature off using the Driver
Information Center (DIC). When delayed locking is
off, the doors will lock immediately when you
press the power door lock switch or the lock button
on the remote keyless entry transmitter. See
DIC Vehicle Customization on page 231for more
information.
Programmable Automatic
Door Locks
Your vehicle is programmed so that when the
doors are closed, the ignition is on and the shift
lever is moved out of PARK (P), all the doors
will lock. The front door inside handles will remain
active. The doors will unlock every time you
stop the vehicle and move the shift lever back into
PARK (P).
If someone needs to exit the vehicle once the doors
are locked, have that person use the manual lever
or power door lock switch for the rear doors. The
front doors will remain unlocked from inside the
vehicle. When the door is closed again, it will not
lock automatically. Use the manual lever or the
power door lock switch to lock the door.
The power door locks can be programmed
through prompts displayed on the Driver
Information Center (DIC). These prompts allow
you to choose various lock and unlock settings.
For more information on programming, see
DIC Vehicle Customization on page 231.

Mirrors
Automatic Dimming Rearview Mirror
with OnStar
®
The vehicle may have an automatic dimming
inside rearview mirror with OnStar®controls. For
more information about OnStar®, seeOnStar®
System on page 139.
O(On/Off):The on/off button, located on the
lower left side of the mirror, is used for the
automatic dimming functions of the rearview mirror.
Mirror Operation
The automatic dimming feature comes on each
time the vehicle is started. Automatic dimming
reduces the glare of lights from behind the vehicle.
To turn the automatic dimming feature on or off,
press and release the on/off button. The indicator
light will illuminate when this feature is on.
Cleaning the Mirror
When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or
similar material dampened with glass cleaner.
Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the mirror
as that may cause the liquid cleaner to enter
the mirror housing.
Automatic Dimming Rearview Mirror
with OnStar
®and Compass
The vehicle may have an automatic dimming
inside rearview mirror with a compass and
OnStar
®controls. For more information about
OnStar®, seeOnStar®System on page 139.
The mirror has an eight-point compass display in
the upper right corner of the mirror. When on,
the compass automatically calibrates, or sets the
driving direction, as the vehicle is driven. If the
vehicle has the navigation option, the direction the
vehicle is facing will be displayed on the
navigation screen.
O(On/Off):The on/off button is located on the
lower left side of the mirror and is used for
the automatic dimming and compass functions of
the rearview mirror.

Mirror Operation
The automatic dimming feature comes on each
time the vehicle is started.
To turn the automatic dimming feature on or off,
press the on/off or AUTO button. The indicator light
will illuminate when this feature is on.
Compass Operation
Press the on/off button once to turn the compass
on or off.
When the ignition and the compass feature are
on, the compass will show two character boxes for
approximately two seconds. After two seconds,
the mirror will display the current compass
direction.
Compass Calibration
If after two seconds the display does not show a
compass direction, (N for North for example), there
may be a strong magnetic eld interfering with
the compass. Such interference may be caused by
a magnetic antenna mount, note pad holder, or
similar object. If the letter C appears in the
compass window, the compass may need to be
reset or calibrated.The mirror can be calibrated by driving the vehicle
in circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less until the
display reads a direction.
The compass can be calibrated by pressing and
holding the on/off button until a C is shown in
the compass display.
Compass Variance
Compass variance is the difference between
earth’s magnetic north and true geographic north.
If the mirror is not adjusted for compass
variance, the compass could give false readings.
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 driven outside zone eight. Under
certain circumstances, such as a long distance,
cross-country trip, it will be necessary to adjust the
compass variance.
135
To adjust for compass variance, do the following:
1. Find your current location and variance
zone number on the zone map that follows.
2. Press and hold the on/off button until a zone
number appears on the display.3. Once the zone number appears on the
display, press the on/off button quickly
until you reach the correct zone number.
If C appears in the compass window,
the compass may need calibration. See
“Compass Calibration” listed previously.
Cleaning the Mirror
When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or
similar material dampened with glass cleaner. Do
not spray glass cleaner directly on the mirror
as that may cause the liquid cleaner to enter the
mirror housing.
