Memory Seat and Mirrors
If your vehicle has the memory feature, you can
program and recall memory settings for the driver’s
seating and outside rearview mirror driving
positions for up to two drivers. If your vehicle has
the adjustable throttle and brake pedal feature,
you can also program and recall memory settings
for the throttle and brake pedal driving positions.
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
Heated Mirrors on page 137andAdjustable
Throttle and Brake Pedal on page 120
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
any time, press one of the power seat or mirror
controls.

How OnStar®Service Works
In order to provide you with OnStar®services,
your vehicle’s OnStar®system has the capability
of recording and transmitting vehicle information.
This information is automatically sent to an
OnStar
®Call Center at the time of an OnStar®
button press, Emergency button press or if
your airbags or AACN system deploys. The vehicle
information usually includes your GPS location
and, in the event of a crash, additional information
regarding the accident that your vehicle has
been involved in (e.g. the direction from which
your vehicle was hit). When you use the Virtual
Advisor feature of OnStar
®Hands-Free Calling,
your vehicle also sends OnStar®your GPS
location so that we can provide you with
location-based services.
OnStar
®service cannot work unless your vehicle
is in a place where OnStar®has an agreement
with a wireless service provider for service in that
area. OnStar
®service also cannot work unless
you are in a place where the wireless service
provider OnStar
®has hired for that area
has coverage, network capacity and reception
when the service is needed, and technology thatis compatible with the OnStar
®service. Not all
services are available everywhere, particularly in
remote or enclosed areas, or at all times.
OnStar
®service that involves location information
about your vehicle cannot work unless GPS
satellite signals are unobstructed and available in
that place as well.
Your vehicle must have a working electrical
system (including adequate battery power) for the
OnStar
®equipment to operate. There are other
problems OnStar®cannot control that may prevent
OnStar®from providing OnStar®service to you
at any particular time or place. Some examples are
damage to important parts of your vehicle in an
accident, hills, tall buildings, tunnels, weather
or wireless phone network congestion.
Your Responsibility
You may need to increase the volume of your radio
to hear the OnStar®advisor. If the light next to the
OnStar®buttons is red, this means that your system
is not functioning properly and should be checked
by a dealer. If the light appears clear (no light is
appearing), your OnStar
®subscription has expired.
You can always press the OnStar®button to
con rm that your OnStar®equipment is active.

Changes or modi cations to this system by other

Operation (With Three Round LED)
Your vehicle may have the Universal Home Remote
System. If there are three round Light Emitting
Diode (LED) above the Universal Home Remote
System buttons, follow the instructions below. If
there is one triangular LED above the Universal
Home Remote System buttons, follow the
instructions under Universal Home Remote System
Operation (with one triangular LED).
This system provides a way to replace up to
three remote control transmitters used to activate
devices such as garage door openers, security
systems, and home lighting.
Do not use this system with any garage door
opener that does not have the stop and reverse
feature. This includes any garage door opener
model manufactured before April 1, 1982.

Read the instructions completely before attempting
to program the transmitter. Because of the steps
involved, it may be helpful to have another
person available to assist you in programming the
transmitter.
Be sure to keep the original remote control
transmitter for use in other vehicles, as well as, for
future programming. You only need the original
remote control transmitter for xed code
programming. It is also recommended that upon
the sale or lease termination of the vehicle,
the programmed buttons should be erased for
security purposes. See “Erasing your Universal
Home Remote Buttons” later in this section.
Be sure that people and objects are clear of the
garage door or security device you are
programming. When programming a garage door,
it is advised to park outside of the garage.If you do not know if your garage door opener is a
xed code or rolling code device, open your
garage door opener’s remote control battery cover.
Your garage door opener is a xed code device
if there is a panel of switches. If not, your
garage door opener is a rolling code device.

4. The indicator light will blink slowly. In order
from left to right, and within two and
one-half minutes, enter each switch setting
into the Universal Home Remote System.
Push one button for each switch as follows:
Left button = “on” switch position.
Right button = “off” switch position.
Middle button = “middle” switch position.
5. After entering the switch settings, press and
release all three buttons at the same time.
The indicator lights will turn on.6. Press and hold the button you would like to
use to control the garage door until the
garage door moves. The indicator light above
the selected button should slowly blink.
You may need to hold the button from
ve to 55 seconds.
7. Immediately release the button when the
garage door moves. The indicator light will
blink rapidly until programming is complete.
8. Press and release the button again. The
garage door should move, con rming that
programming is successful and complete.
To program another device such as an additional
garage door opener, a security device, or
home lighting, repeat Steps 1–8, choosing a
different function button in Step 6 than what you
used for the garage door opener.
