Adjustable Throttle and Brake Pedal
If your vehicle has this feature, you can change
the position of the throttle and brake pedals.
This feature is designed for shorter drivers, since
the pedals cannot move farther away from the
standard position, but can move toward the driver
for better pedal reach.
The switch used to
adjust the pedals is
located on the
instrument panel below
the climate control
system.
Press the arrow at the bottom of the switch to
move the pedals closer to your body. Press
the arrow at the top of the switch to move the
pedals away from your body.Before you start driving, fully press the brake
pedal to conrm the adjustment is right for you.
While driving, make only small adjustments.
No adjustment to the pedals can be made when
the vehicle is in REVERSE (R) or while using
the cruise control.
Your vehicle may have a memory function which
allows pedal settings to be saved and recalled.
SeeMemory Seat, Mirrors, and Pedals on page 13
for more information.
Engine Coolant Heater
Your vehicle may have an engine coolant heater.
If your vehicle has the DURAMAX
®Diesel
engine, see the DURAMAX®Diesel manual for
more information.
In very cold weather, 0°F (−18°C) or colder, the
engine coolant heater can help. You will get easier
starting and better fuel economy during engine
warm-up.

parking brake.
Follow the proper steps to be sure your vehicle
will not move. SeeShifting Into Park (P) on
page 163.

Automatic Dimming Mirror Operation
The automatic dimming mirror function is turned on
automatically each time the ignition is started.
To operate the automatic dimming mirror, do
the following:
1. Make sure the green indicator light, located to
the left of the on/off button, is lit. If it is not,
press and hold the on/off button for
approximately six seconds until the green light
comes on, indicating that the mirror is in
automatic dimming mode.
2. Turn off the automatic dimming mirror function
by pressing and holding the on/off button for
approximately six seconds, until the green
indicator light turns off.
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.
171

Compass Variance
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 outside of zone eight. Under certain
circumstances, as during a long distance
cross-country trip, it will be necessary to adjust for
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 compass could give
false readings.
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
approximately four seconds of inactivity, the
new zone number will be locked in and
the compass/temperature display will return.

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.

Outside Manual Mirrors
Adjust your outside mirrors so you can just see
the side of your vehicle and have a clear view of
objects behind you. The mirrors can be folded
in to enter narrow areas.
The use of hood-mounted air deectors and
add-on convex mirror attachments may adversely
affect mirror performance.

can be adjusted so you can have a clear view
of the objects behind you. Manually pull out
the mirror head to extend it for better visibility
when towing a trailer.These mirrors can be manually folded forward or
rearward. The lower portion of the mirror is
convex. A convex mirror’s surface is curved so
you can see more from the driver’s seat. The
convex mirror can be adjusted manually to the
driver’s preferred position for better vision.
Your vehicle may have outside heated mirrors
which help clear them of condensation, snow, and
ice. When the rear window defogger button is
pressed, the heated mirrors are also turned on.
