2007 GMC ENVOY airbag

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,
press and hold the on/off button 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.
Passenger Airbag Indicator
The vehicle may be equipped with a passenger
airbag indicator, on the mirror glass, just above the
buttons. If the vehicle has this feature, the
mirror will display the word ON, or an airbag
symbol in Canada, when the passenger airbag is
enabled. For more information, seePassenger
Sensing System on page 82.
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
Your vehicle may have an automatic-dimming
rearview mirror with a compass.
O(On/Off):This is the on/off button for the
automatic dimming feature and compass.

airbag indicator on the mirror glass, just above the
buttons. If the vehicle has this feature the mirror
will display the word ON, or an airbag symbol
in Canada, when the passenger airbag is enabled.
For more information seePassenger Sensing
System on page 82.
Cleaning the Mirror
When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or
similar material dampened with glass cleaner.

as that may cause the liquid cleaner to enter
the mirror housing.

Outside Convex Mirror
{CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like
other vehicles) look farther away than
they really are. If you cut too sharply into
the right or left lane, you could hit a
vehicle. Check your inside mirror or
glance over your shoulder before
changing lanes.
The passenger’s outside mirror is convex.
A convex mirror’s surface is curved so more
can be seen from the driver’s seat.
Outside Heated Mirrors
Your vehicle may have this feature. When you
operate the rear window defogger, the defogger
also warms the heated driver’s and passenger’s
outside rearview mirrors to help clear them of ice,
snow and condensation.

seconds when you turn the ignition key to RUN.
If the light does not come on then, have it xed so
it will be ready to warn you if there is a problem.
