Passenger Sensing System
The vehicle has a passenger sensing system for the
right front passenger position. The passenger airbag
status indicator will be visible in the rearview mirror
when the vehicle is started.
United States
Canada The words ON and OFF, or the symbol for on and off,
will be visible during the system check. When the
system check is complete, either the word ON or OFF,
or the symbol for on or off, will be visible. See
Passenger Airbag Status Indicator on page 4‑34.
The passenger sensing system will turn off the right
front passenger frontal airbag and seat-mounted side
impact airbag under certain conditions. The driver
airbags are not affected by the passenger sensing
system.
The passenger sensing system works with sensors
that are part of the right front passenger seat.
The sensors are designed to detect the presence of
a properly-seated occupant and determine if the right
front passenger frontal airbag and seat-mounted side
impact airbag should be enabled (may inflate) or not.
According to accident statistics, children are safer when
properly secured in a rear seat in the correct child
restraint for their weight and size. We recommend that
rear-facing child restraints not be transported in the
vehicle, even if the airbags are off.

Adding Equipment to Your
Airbag-Equipped Vehicle
Q: Is there anything I might add to or change about the vehicle that could keep the airbags from
working properly?
A: Yes. If you add things that change your vehicle's
frame, bumper system, height, front end or side
sheet metal, they may keep the airbag system from
working properly. Changing or moving any parts of
the front seats, safety belts, the airbag sensing and
diagnostic module, steering wheel, instrument panel,
the inside review mirror, front sensors, or airbag
wiring can affect the operation of the airbag system.
In addition, the vehicle has a passenger sensing
system for the right front passenger position, which
includes sensors that are part of the passenger seat.
The passenger sensing system may not operate
properly if the original seat trim is replaced with
non-GM covers, upholstery or trim, or with
GM covers, upholstery or trim designed for a
different vehicle. Any object, such as an aftermarket
seat heater or a comfort enhancing pad or device,
installed under or on top of the seat fabric, could also interfere with the operation of the passenger
sensing system. This could either prevent proper
deployment of the passenger airbag(s) or prevent
the passenger sensing system from properly turning
off the passenger airbag(s). See
Passenger Sensing
System
on page 2‑53.
If you have any questions about this, you should
contact Customer Assistance before you modify
your vehicle. The phone numbers and addresses
for Customer Assistance are in Step Two of the
Customer Satisfaction Procedure in this manual.
See Customer Satisfaction Procedure on page 8‑2.
Q: Because I have a disability, I have to get my vehicle modified. How can I find out whether this
will affect my airbag system?
A: If you have questions, call Customer Assistance.
The phone numbers and addresses for Customer
Assistance are in Step Two of the Customer
Satisfaction Procedure in this manual. See
Customer Satisfaction Procedure on page 8‑2.
Your dealer/retailer and the service manual have
information about the location of the airbag sensors,
sensing and diagnostic module and airbag wiring.

NE is displayed for north-east.
3-39

Compass Calibration
PressPonce to turn the compass display on or off.
If after several seconds the display does not show a
compass heading, there may be a strong magnetic
field interfering with the compass. Interference can be
caused by a magnetic antenna mount, note pad holder
or similar object. If the letter C or CAL appears in the
compass window, the compass needs calibration.
Depending on the mirror, in order to calibrate, CAL must
be displayed in the mirror compass windows. If CAL is
not displayed, press
Pfor several seconds or until
CAL is displayed.
If the compass has map lamps, it can be placed in
calibration mode by pressing and holding the left map
light button until a C appears on the compass display.
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.
Compass Variance
The mirror is set to zone eight. If you do not live in zone
eight or drive out of the area, the compass variance
needs to be changed to the appropriate zone. To adjust for compass variance:
1. Find your current location and variance zone number on the zone map that follows. 2. Press and holdPuntil a Z and a zone number
displays. The compass is now in zone mode.
3. Once the zone number displays, press
P
repeatedly until you reach the correct zone
number. Stop pressing
Pand the mirror returns
