The buttons for this feature are located on the
driver’s door armrest.
Use the following steps to program the buttons:
1. Adjust the driver’s seat including the seatback
recliner, both outside mirrors, and the throttle
and brake pedals. SeeOutside Power

for more information.2. Press and hold button 1 for at least
three seconds.
Two beeps will sound to con rm that the seat
and mirror positions have been saved.
3. Repeat the procedure for a second driver
using button 2.
The vehicle must be in PARK (P) to recall the
stored driving positions.
Press one of the numbered memory buttons to
recall the stored setting. Each time a memory
button is pressed, a single beep will sound.
A chime will sound and the setting will not be
recalled if you press button 1 or 2 when the vehicle
is not in PARK (P).
If you would like the stored driving positions to be
recalled when unlocking your vehicle with the
remote keyless entry transmitter or when you place
the key in the ignition, seeDIC Vehicle
Customization on page 231.
To stop recall movement of the memory feature at

®
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

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

®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

Outside Power Heated Mirrors
The power mirror
controls are located on
the driver’s door
armrest and operate
both outside rearview
mirrors.
Press (A) to select the driver’s side mirror.
The LED indicator will turn on to indicate
that this mirror is selected. Then press

If your vehicle has the power fold function, use the
following buttons:
Press (C), to fold the mirrors out to the driving
position.
Press (D) to fold the mirrors in to the folded
position.
If the mirrors are accidentally folded/unfolded
manually, they may shake or utter at normal
driving speeds and may not stay in the unfolded
position. If this happens, you will need to reset the
mirrors. See “Resetting the Power Foldaway
Mirrors” next.
137
Resetting the Power Foldaway Mirrors
You will need to reset the power foldaway mirrors
if the following occurs:
The mirrors are accidentally obstructed while
folding.
They are accidentally manually
folded/unfolded.
The mirrors will not stay in the unfolded
position.
The mirrors shake and utter at normal driving
speeds.
To reset the power foldaway mirrors, fold and
unfold them one time using the mirror controls.
This will reset them to their normal position.
The mirrors can be manually folded inward to
prevent damage when going through an automatic
car wash or a con ned space. To fold, push the
mirror toward the vehicle. To return the mirror to its
original position, push outward. Be sure to
return both mirrors to their original unfolded
position before driving.
The preferred position can be stored in memory if
the vehicle has the memory option. SeeMemory
Seat and Mirrors on page 12for more information.When the rear window defogger is turned on, both
outside rearview mirrors are heated to help
clear them of ice, snow, and condensation. See
“Rear Window Defogger” underDual Climate
Control System on page 189for more information.
Outside Automatic Dimming
Mirror
The driver’s outside mirror may have an automatic
dimming feature that helps to reduce glare from
other vehicles headlamps. This feature is
controlled by the on and off settings on the
automatic dimming rearview mirror. SeeAutomatic
Dimming Rearview Mirror with OnStar
®on
page 134.
Outside Curb View Assist Mirror
If the vehicle has memory seat and mirrors, the
driver’s or passenger’s mirror can tilt to a
preselected position when the vehicle is shifted
into REVERSE (R). Use this feature to view
the curb when parallel parking.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R)
and after a ve-second delay, both mirrors
return to their original position.
138
The URPA display is
located inside the
vehicle, above the
liftgate glass. It
has three color-coded
lights that can be
seen through the
rearview mirror or by
turning around.
How the System Works
URPA comes on automatically when the shift lever
is moved into REVERSE (R) and the vehicle
speed is less than 3 mph (5 km/h). When
the system turns on, the three lights on the display
will illuminate for one and a half seconds to let
you know that the system is working. If your
vehicle is moving in REVERSE (R) at a speed
greater than 3 mph (5 km/h), the red light will ash
to remind you that the system does not work at
a speed greater than 3 mph (5 km/h).If an object is detected at a REVERSE (R) speed
of less than 3 mph (5 km/h), one of the following
will occur:
Description English Metric
Amber light 5 ft 1.5 m
Amber/amber lights 40 in 1.0 m
Amber/amber/red lights &
continuous chime20 in 0.5 m
Amber/amber/red lights
ashing & continuous
chime1 ft 0.3 m
A chime will sound the rst time an object is
detected between 20 inches (0.5 m) and 5 feet
(1.5 m) away.
URPA cannot detect objects that are above liftgate
level. In order for the rear sensors to recognize
an object, it must be within detection range behind
the vehicle.
185
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog or frost from the rear window.
<(Rear Defogger):Press the center of the
right control to turn the rear window defogger on or
off. Be sure to clear as much snow from the
rear window as possible. The rear window
defogger turns off about 20 minutes after the
button is rst pressed if the vehicle is moving at
slower speeds. At higher vehicle speeds, the rear
defogger can stay on continuously. Each
additional press runs the defogger for about
10 minutes.
The heated outside rearview mirrors also heat to
help clear fog or frost from the surface of the
mirror when the rear window defogger is on.
Notice:Do not use a razor blade or sharp
object to clear the inside rear window. Do not
adhere anything to the defogger grid lines
in the rear glass. These actions may damage
the rear defogger. Repairs would not be
covered by your warranty.
Outlet Adjustment
Use the knobs located in the center of each outlet
to change the direction of the air ow. Use the
thumbwheels to open or close the outlets.
Operation Tips
Clear away any ice, snow, or leaves from the
air inlets at the base of the windshield that
could block the ow of air into the vehicle.
Use of non-GM approved hood de ectors 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 the
vehicle more effectively.
If the air ow seems low when the fan speed is
at the highest setting, the passenger
compartment air lter might need to be
replaced. For more information, see
Passenger Compartment Air Filter on
page 195.
Set the climate control system to AUTO fan
and mode and then adjust the temperature
setting up or down a few degrees for
best comfort.
