Mirrors
Electrochromic Day/Night Rearview Mirror
with Compass
Your vehicle has an electrochromic inside rearview
mirror with a compass. Your vehicle’s mirror may also
contain OnStar controls.
(On/Off): This is the on/off button for mirrors
equipped with OnStar controls.
Pressing the MIRROR button (or the on/off button for
mirrors equipped with OnStar controls) located at the
bottom of the mirror, turns the automatic dimming
feature on or off.
The mirror also includes an eight
-point compass
display in the upper right corner of the mirror face.
When on, the compass automatically calibrates as the
vehicle is driven.
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.
Mirror Operation
To turn on the automatic dimming feature, press
MIRROR (or press and hold the on/off button for
about three seconds for mirrors equipped with OnStar
controls). To turn off automatic dimming, press
MIRROR (or press and hold the on/off button for
about three seconds for mirrors equipped with OnStar
controls) again. The green indicator light will be
illuminated when this feature is active. The automatic
dimming feature will be active each time the vehicle
is started.
Compass Operation
Press COMPASS (or the on/off button for mirrors
equipped with OnStar controls) once to turn the
compass on or off.
When the ignition and the compass feature are on, the
compass will show two character boxes for
approximately two seconds. After two seconds, the
mirror will display the compass heading.
