Matching Transmitter(s) to Your
Vehicle
Each keyless access transmitter is coded to allow
only transmitters programmed to your vehicle, to
work. If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement
can be purchased and programmed through your
dealer/retailer. Your dealer/retailer can reprogram
your vehicle so lost or stolen transmitters no longer
work with your vehicle. Each vehicle can have a
maximum of four transmitters matched to it.
To match a new transmitter to your vehicle
when you have a recognized transmitter
(two recognized transmitters are required
for Canadian owners), do the following:
1. The vehicle must be off.
2. Have the recognized and new, unrecognized
transmitters on your person.
3. Go to the rear of the vehicle and insert the
vehicle key into the key cylinder located
above the license plate. SeeHatch/Trunk
on page 82for more information on the key
cylinder.
4. Open the trunk.

Lighted Visor Vanity Mirrors
Pull down the sun visor and lift the cover to
expose the lighted vanity mirror. When the cover
is lifted, the lamps will come on automatically,
even if the ignition is off.
Theft-Deterrent Systems
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some
cities. Although your vehicle has a number of
theft-deterrent features, we know that nothing
we put on it can make it impossible to steal.
Theft-Deterrent System
Your vehicle is equipped with a theft-deterrent
alarm system.
With this system, the
security light will ash
when the door is
open and locked with
the power door
lock switch.
If this light is on continuously while the engine is
running, your vehicle needs service.

Mirrors
Manual Rearview Mirror
When you are sitting in a comfortable driving
position, adjust the mirror so you can see clearly
behind your vehicle. Grip the mirror in the center to
move it up or down and side to side. The day/night
control, located at the bottom of the mirror, lessens
glare from the headlamps behind your vehicle when
in the night position. Turn the control to the right for
the night position and to the left for the day position.
Two buttons under the rearview mirror control
map lamps. Push each button to turn each map
lamp on or off.
Automatic Dimming Rearview Mirror
with OnStar
®and Compass
The vehicle may have an automatic dimming
rearview mirror with OnStar®, a compass and map
lamps. Three OnStar®buttons are at the bottom
of the mirror. SeeOnStar®System on page 114
for more information on the services OnStar®
provides.
Mirror Operation
The mirror automatically changes to reduce
glare from headlamps behind you. A time delay
feature prevents rapid changing from the day
to night positions while driving under lights and
through traffic.
P(On/Off):The automatic dimming feature is
activated when the vehicle is started. The automatic
dimming feature is turned on or off by pressing this
button located on the lower part of the mirror. Press
and hold the button for up to three seconds to turn
this feature on or off.
T(Indicator Light):This light will turn on when
the automatic dimming feature is active.
Map Lamps
The mirror has map lamps located at the bottom
of the mirror. To manually turn the lamps on or off,
press the button next to each lamp.
108

Compass Operation
The mirror has an eight-point compass display in
the bottom of the mirror face.
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
heading. For example, NE is displayed for
north-east.
Compass Calibration
If after two seconds the display does not show a
compass heading, 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 needs
calibration.The mirror compass 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 placed in calibration
mode by pressing and holding the left map light
button until a C appears on 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, your 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 you live
outside zone eight. Under certain circumstances,
such as a long distance, cross-country trip, it
will be necessary to adjust the compass variance.
109

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 untilaZand
a zone number appears on the display. The
compass is now in zone mode.3. Once the zone number appears on the display,
press the on/off button quickly until you reach
the correct zone number. Stop pressing the
button and the mirror will return to normal
operation. 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.
Automatic Dimming Rearview
Mirror with Compass
If the vehicle has this feature, an automatic
dimming mirror automatically dims to the proper
level to minimize glare at night from lights
behind your vehicle.
The mirror also includes a compass display in
the upper right corner of the mirror face.
P(On/Off):This is the on/off button.
110

Automatic Dimming Mirror Operation
The automatic dimming mirror function is turned on
each time the ignition is started. A light near the
on/off button will come on to indicate the automatic
dimming is on.
Press the on/off button for about six seconds to
manually turn the automatic dimming function
on or off.
Compass Display
Press the on/off button, located to the far left,
briey to turn the compass display on or off.
If the display reads CAL, the compass needs to
be calibrated. For more information, see “Compass
Calibration” later in this section.
To adjust between Fahrenheit and Celsius:
1. Press and hold the on/off button for
approximately four seconds until either
a ashing °F, or °C appears.2. Press the button again to change the display
to the desired unit of measurement. After
approximately four seconds of inactivity,
the new unit will be locked in and the
compass/temperature display will return.
If an abnormal temperature reading is displayed
for an extended period of time, please consult your
dealer. Under certain circumstances, a delay in
updating the temperature is normal.
Compass Variance
Compass variance is the difference between
earth’s magnetic north and true geographic north.
If not adjusted to account for compass variance,
the mirror’s 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 you live outside of zone eight. Under certain
circumstances, as during a long distance
cross-country trip, it will also be necessary
to adjust for compass variance.
111

To adjust for compass variance do the following:
1. Find your current location and variance
zone number on the following zone map.
2. Press and hold the on/off button untilaZand
a zone number appears in the display. The
compass is now in zone mode.
3. Keep pressing the on/off button until the
desired zone number appears in the display.
Release the button. After approximatelyfour seconds of inactivity, the new zone
number will be locked in and the compass/
temperature display will return.
4. Calibrate the compass as described below.
Compass Calibration
The compass may need calibration if one of the
following occurs:
After approximately ve seconds, the display
does not show a compass heading (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, magnetic note pad holder,
or a similar magnetic item.
The compass does not display the correct
heading and the compass zone variance is
set correctly.
In order to calibrate, CAL must be displayed
in the mirror compass windows. If CAL is not
displayed, push the on/off button for approximately
12 seconds or until CAL is displayed.
The compass can be calibrated by driving the
vehicle in circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less until
the display reads a direction.
