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.

Express-Down Window
This feature is on all windows. Press the switch
to the second position and release the switch
to activate the express-down feature. To stop the
window as it is lowering, press down or pull up
brie y on the switch again.
Express-Up Window

Programming the Power Windows
If the battery on your vehicle has been recharged,
disconnected, or is not working, you will need
to reprogram each power window for the
express-up feature to work. Before reprogramming,
you will need to replace or recharge your
vehicle’s battery.To program each window, follow these steps:
1. With the ignition in ACCESSORY, ON,
or when Retained Accessory Power (RAP)
is active, close all doors.
2. Press and hold the power window switch until
the window is fully open.
3. Pull the power window switch up until the
window is fully closed.
4. Continue pulling the switch up for
approximately two seconds after the window
is completely closed.
The window is now reprogrammed. Repeat the
process for the other windows.Express Window Anti-Pinch Feature
If any object is in the path of the window when the
express-up is active, the window will stop at the
obstruction and auto-reverse to a preset
factory position. Weather conditions such as
severe icing may also cause the window to
auto-reverse. The window will return to normal
operation once the obstruction or condition
is removed.

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.

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

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.
