range of gears for current driving conditions.When in the M (Manual Mode) a number will display
next to the M, indicating the maximum available gear.
The DIC display will show the message MANUAL SHIFT
on the rst line and the maximum available gear will be
displayed on the second line. SeeDriver Information
Center (DIC) on page 3-46andDIC Operation and
Displays (Using DIC Buttons) on page 3-47orDIC
Operation and Displays (Using Trip Odometer Reset
Stem) on page 3-52for more information. The number
displayed in the DIC is the highest gear available.
The transmission will be limited to the gear selected and
lower gears. Shifting will occur normally while driving,
however the cluster will continue to display the maximum
available gear. Higher gears will not be available unless
the selection is changed to include higher gears using

Location information about the vehicle is only available
if the GPS satellite signals are unobstructed and
available.
The 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 at any particular time or place. Some
examples are damage to important parts of the vehicle in
a crash, hills, tall buildings, tunnels, weather or wireless
phone network congestion.
Your Responsibility
Increase the volume of the radio if the OnStar advisor
cannot be heard. If the light next to the OnStar buttons
is red, the system may not be functioning properly.
Press the OnStar button and request a vehicle
diagnostic. If the light appears clear (no light is
appearing), your OnStar subscription has expired and
all services have been deactivated. Press the OnStar

Universal Home Remote System
Operation
Your vehicle may have the Universal Home Remote
System. If there are three round Light Emitting Diode
(LED) indicator lights above the Universal Home Remote
buttons, follow the instructions below.
This system provides a way to replace up to three
remote control transmitters used to activate devices
such as garage door openers, security systems,
and home automation devices.Do not use this system with any garage door opener
that does not have the stop and reverse feature.
This includes any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982.
Read the instructions completely before attempting to
program the transmitter. Because of the steps involved,
it may be helpful to have another person available to
assist you in programming the transmitter.
Be sure to keep the original remote control transmitter
for use in other vehicles, as well as, for future
programming. You only need the original remote control
transmitter for Fixed Code programming. It is also
recommended that upon the sale or lease termination of
the vehicle, the programmed buttons should be erased
for security purposes. See “Erasing Universal Home
Remote Buttons” later in this 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 security
device you are programming.

Programming Universal Home
Remote — Rolling Code
If you have questions or need help programming the
Universal Home Remote System, call 1-866-572-2728
or go to www.learcar2u.com.
Most garage door openers sold after 1996 are Rolling
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.
To program up to three devices:
1. From inside the vehicle, press the two outside
buttons at the same time for one to two seconds,
and immediately release them.2. Locate in the garage, the garage door opener
receiver (motor-head unit). Locate the “Learn” or
“Smart” button. It can usually be found where the
hanging antenna wire is attached to the motor-head
unit and may be a colored button. Press this button.
After you press this button, you will have 30 seconds
to complete the following steps.

Your panel of switches may not appear exactly as
they do in the examples above, but they should
be similar.
The switch positions on your hand-held transmitter
may be labeled, as follows:
A switch in the up position may be labeled
as “Up,” “+,” or “On.”
A switch in the down position may be labeled
as “Down,” “−,” or “Off.”
A switch in the middle position may be labeled
as “Middle,” “0,” or “Neutral.”2. Write down the eight to 12 switch settings from left
to right as follows:
When a switch is in the up position, write “Right.”
When a switch is in the down position,
write “Left.”
If a switch is set between the up and down
position, write “Middle.”
The switch settings that you wrote down in
Step 2 will now become the button strokes you
enter into the Universal Home Remote in Step 4.
Be sure to enter the switch settings that you wrote
down in Step 2, in order from left to right, into
the Universal Home Remote, when completing
Step 4.
3. From inside your vehicle, rst rmly press all three
buttons at the same time for about three seconds.
Release the buttons to put the Universal Home
Remote into programming mode. Example of Eight Dip Switches with Three Positions

4. The indicator lights will blink slowly. Enter each
switch setting from Step 2 into your vehicle’s
Universal Home Remote. You will have two and
one-half minutes to complete Step 4. Now press
one button on the Universal Home Remote for
each switch setting as follows:
If you wrote “Left,” press the left button in
the vehicle.
If you wrote “Right,” press the right button in
the vehicle.
If you wrote “Middle,” press the middle button in
the vehicle.5. After entering all of the switch positions, again,
rmly press and release all three buttons at the
same time. The indicator lights will turn on.
6. Press and hold the button you would like to use to
control the garage door until the garage door moves.
The indicator light above the selected button should
slowly blink. You may need to hold the button from
ve to 55 seconds.
7. Immediately release the button when the garage
door moves. The indicator light will blink rapidly
until programming is complete.
8. Press and release the same button again.
The garage door should move, conrming
that programming is successful and complete.
To program another Fixed Code device such as an
additional garage door opener, a security device,
or home automation device, repeat Steps 1-8, choosing
a different button in Step 6 than what you used for
the garage door opener.
Using Universal Home Remote
