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 that is 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
conrm that your OnStar®equipment is active.

If you have a newer garage door opener with rolling
codes, please be sure to follow Steps 6 through 8 to
complete the programming of your Universal Home
Remote Transmitter.
Read the instructions completely before attempting
to program the Universal Home Remote. Because
of the steps involved, it may be helpful to have
another person available to assist you in the
programming steps
Keep the original hand-held transmitter for use in
other vehicles as well as for future Universal Home
Remote programming. It is also recommended
that upon the sale of the vehicle, the programmed
Universal Home Remote buttons should be erased
for security purposes. See “Erasing Universal
Home Remote Buttons” later in section.
When programming a garage door, it is advised
to park outside of the garage. Be sure that people
and objects are clear of the garage door or
gate operator you are programming.
It is recommended that a new battery be installed in
your hand-held transmitter for quicker and more
accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal.Programming the Universal Home
Remote System
Follow these steps to program up to three
devices:
1. Press and hold down the two outside Universal
Home Remote buttons, releasing only when
the Universal Home Remote indicator light
begins to ash, after 20 seconds. Do not hold
down the buttons for longer than 30 seconds
and do not repeat this step to program a
second and/or third hand-held transmitter to
the remaining two Universal Home Remote
buttons.
2. Hold the end of your hand-held transmitter
about 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from
the Universal Home Remote buttons
while keeping the indicator light in view.
3. At the same time, press and hold both the
desired Universal Home Remote button and
the hand-held transmitter button. Do not
release the buttons until Step 4 has been
completed.
Some entry gates and garage door openers
may require you to substitute Step 3 with
the procedure noted in “Gate Operator and
Canadian Programming” later in this section.

Programming Universal Home
Remote — Fixed Code
Most garage door openers sold before 1996 are
Fixed Code units.
Programming a garage door opener involves
time-sensitive actions, so read the entire procedure
before you begin. If you do not follow these actions,
the device will time out and you will have to repeat
the procedure.Follow these steps to program up to
three devices:
1. To verify if you have a Fixed Code garage door
opener, remove the battery cover on your hand
held transmitter supplied by the manufacturer
of your garage door opener motor. If you see
a row of dip switches similar to the graphic
above, you have a Fixed Code garage door
opener. If you do not see a row of dip switches,
return to the previous section for Programming
Universal Home Remote – Rolling Code.

Rear Storage Area
There are two rear storage compartments in the
oor of the rear hatch/trunk area.
Your vehicle has two storage compartment lids.
To access a storage compartment, pull up to open
the lid. The lids cannot be removed.For Z06 models the right rear compartment stores
the battery and cannot be used for storage.
Notice:Do not store heavy or sharp objects
in the rear storage compartments located in the
hatch/trunk area. If you do, the objects could
damage the underbody.
Rear Trunk Partition
For vehicles with the power convertible top option
only, there is a trunk partition to keep cargo from
getting in the way of the convertible top. The trunk
partition must be in place for the top to move. If the
trunk partition is not properly in place the ATTACH
TRUNK PARTITION Driver Information Center
(DIC) message will display and you will not be able
to remove the convertible top. SeeDIC Warnings
and Messages on page 214for more information.
The trunk partition is a at carpeted board with a
horizontal ap that can be attached to the top
of the trunk to divide the storage compartment
or stored at when not in use.

could damage the top. Always verify that
the rear edge of the convertible top is in the
full-down position before lowering the top into

the sound may be muted for a brief time due to
a new audio system equalization being loaded.
If the convertible top is operated multiple times,
the engine should be running to prevent drain
on the vehicle’s battery. Under certain conditions,
the Driver Information Center (DIC) may display
a message regarding the power convertible
top. SeeDIC Warnings and Messages on
page 214for more information.Raising the Power Convertible Top

hydraulic bolt must be tightened, by turning it
clockwise. The power convertible top button can
then be used to lower or raise the convertible top.
If the power convertible top is operated multiple
times, the engine should be running to prevent
drain on the vehicle’s battery. Under certain
conditions, the Driver Information Center (DIC)may display a message regarding the power top.
SeeDIC Warnings and Messages on page 214
for more information.
If the battery has been disconnected, the power
windows must be initialized for the power top
to operate. SeePower Windows on page 86for
more information.
