{CAUTION:
Full-time four-wheel drive vehicles with
the transfer case in NEUTRAL will allow
the vehicle to roll, even if your shift lever
is in PARK (P). So, be sure the transfer
case is in a drive gear — not in NEUTRAL.
Always set your parking brake.
Follow the proper steps to be sure your vehicle
will not move. SeeShifting Into Park (P) on
page 134.
If you are pulling a trailer, seeTowing a Trailer on
page 374.
Mirrors
Automatic Dimming Rearview
Mirror with Compass and
Temperature Display
If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic
mirror, it will, when on, automatically dim to the
proper level to minimize glare from lights behind
you after dark.
The mirror also includes a display in the upper
right corner of the mirror face. The compass
reading and the outside temperature will both
appear in the display at the same time. The dual
display can be turned on or off by brie y
pressing the compass/temperature button.
O:This is the button for the automatic dimming
and compass/temperature functions.
Your vehicle may also have a Rear Vision
Camera. SeeRear Vision Camera on page 192
for more information.
139
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 lane, you could hit a vehicle on
your right. Check your inside mirror or
glance over your shoulder before
changing lanes.
The passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror’s surface is curved so more can be
seen from the driver’s seat. It makes things in the
mirror appear farther away than they really are.
Outside Heated Mirrors
If the vehicle has
heated mirrors, the
button to turn this
function on or off is
located on the climate
control panel.
Press this button to warm the driver’s and
passenger’s outside rearview mirrors to help clear
them of ice, snow, and condensation.
With a rear window defogger, the heated mirrors
will come on when this button is pressed. See
“Rear Window Defogger” underDual Automatic
Climate Control System on page 197for more
information.
143
Outside Automatic Dimming Mirror
with Curb View Assist
If the vehicle has this feature, the driver’s outside
mirror adjusts for the glare of the headlamps behind
you. SeeAutomatic Dimming Rearview Mirror with
Compass and Temperature Display on page 139.
The vehicle’s outside mirrors can also perform a
curb view assist mirror function. This causes
the passenger’s and/or driver’s mirror to tilt to a
preselected position when the vehicle is in
REVERSE (R). This feature may be useful in
viewing the curb when parallel parking.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R)
and a short delay has occurred, the passenger’s
and/or driver’s mirror will return to its original
position.
To change the preselected tilt position, adjust the
mirrors to the desired position while the vehicle
is in REVERSE (R). When the vehicle is shifted out
of REVERSE (R), this new position is saved in
memory as the tilt position.
This feature can be enabled/disabled through the
Driver Information Center. SeeDIC Vehicle
Customization on page 234for more information.

144
Reading Lamps
Your vehicle has reading lamps located in the
overhead console. Press the button located next
to the lamp to turn it on. The lamps can be
adjusted to point in the direction you want.
Press the button again to turn the lamp off.
These lamps will also come on with the
dome lamps.
Battery Run-Down Protection
This feature shuts off the dome lamps if they are
left on for more than 10 minutes when the
ignition is in LOCK. This will help prevent the
battery from running down.
Rear Vision Camera
Your vehicle may be equipped with a rear vision
camera system. Read this entire section before
using the camera system.The rear vision camera system is designed to help
the driver when backing up by displaying a view
of the area behind the vehicle. When the
driver shifts the vehicle into REVERSE (R), the
video screen will automatically slide out from
the rear view mirror. Once the driver shifts out of
REVERSE (R), the video screen will slide back
into the rear view mirror after a delay.
To turn off the rear vision camera system, do the
following:
1. Place the vehicle shift lever in (P) PARK.
2. Turn the ignition key to the ACCESSORY
position.
3. Press the right mirror button brie y; the right
green light indicator will turn off. The rear
camera vision display is now disabled.
To turn on the rear camera vision feature again,
press the right mirror button brie y. The green light
indicator will illuminate. The rear camera vision
system is now enabled and the display will
slide out from the mirror normally.
192
To manually slide out the rear camera screen for
cleaning, do the following:
1. Place the vehicle shift lever in (P) PARK.
2. Turn the ignition key to the ACCESSORY or
RUN position.
3. Press and hold the right mirror button for
ve seconds. The display will slide out
from the mirror for 30 seconds; the right green
LED indicator will remain illuminated. The
camera screen will not be on when it slides
out of the mirror.
4. If additional time is required for cleaning,
repeat step 3.
To resume normal operation, press the right
button momentarily while the rear camera screen
is out or wait 30 seconds for screen to slide
back into the mirror.
For more information on the automatic dimming,
compass, and temperature features of the mirror,
seeAutomatic Dimming Rearview Mirror with
Compass and Temperature Display on page 139.
{CAUTION:
The Rear Vision Camera (RVC)
system does not replace driver vision.
RVC does not:
Detect objects that are outside the
camera’s eld of view, below the
bumper, or underneath the vehicle.
Detect children, pedestrians,
bicyclists, or pets.
Do not back the vehicle by only looking at
the rear vision camera screen, or use the
screen during longer, higher speed
backing maneuvers or where there could
be cross-traffic. Your judged distances
using the screen will differ from actual
distances.
So if you do not use proper care before
backing up, you could hit a vehicle, child,
pedestrian, bicyclist, or pet, resulting in
vehicle damage, injury, or death. Even
though the vehicle has the RVC system,
always check carefully before backing up
by checking behind your vehicle.

To install a step:
1. Before installing the bolts:
Remove all traces of the original adhesive
patch.
Clean the threads of the bolts with
denatured alcohol or equivalent and allow
threads to dry.
Apply Threadlocker (GM Part No. 12345382,
in Canada 10953489) or equivalent.
2. Install the side step to the vehicle. You may
need someone to assist you in the installation.
3. Install the nuts and bolts for the two
inner brackets rst, but do not tighten them.
4. Using a level, make sure the step is level in
relationship to the vehicle. Then, tighten the
inner bracket nuts and bolts.
5. Install the other nuts and bolts. Tighten all
nuts and bolts to 39 lb ft (50
Y).
Driving at Night
Night driving is more dangerous than day driving.
One reason is that some drivers are likely to
be impaired — by alcohol or drugs, with night
vision problems, or by fatigue.
Here are some tips on night driving.
Drive defensively.
Do not drink and drive.
Adjust the inside rearview mirror to reduce the
glare from headlamps behind you.
Since you cannot see as well, you may need
to slow down and keep more space between
you and other vehicles.
Slow down, especially on higher speed roads.
Your vehicle’s headlamps can light up only so
much road ahead.
In remote areas, watch for animals.
If you are tired, pull off the road in a safe
place and rest.
