OnStar and an eight-point compass display located in

bottom of the mirror. See your GM dealer for more
information on the OnStar

Mirror Operation
While sitting in a comfortable position, adjust the rearview
mirror so you can see clearly behind your vehicle. Grip it
in the center and move it up or down and side to side.
The day/night control, located at the bottom of the mirror,
adjusts the mirror to reduce headlamp glare from behind
during evening or dark conditions. Push the control for
daytime use; pull it for night use.

Compass Display
O
(On/Off): Press this button to turn the compass on
or off. The compass display, can show a maximum
of two characters. For example, NE is displayed
for north-east.
When the ignition and the compass/temperature
feature are on, character boxes will appear for about
two seconds. After two seconds, the mirror will display
®
the direction the vehicle is facing.
Compass Calibration
When on, the compass automatically calibrates as the
vehicle is driven. If, after two seconds, the display
does not show a compass direction, (N for North, for
example), there may be a strong magnetic field
interfering with the compass. Such interference may be
caused by a magnetic antenna mount, magnetic
note pad holder, or a similar magnetic item. If the letter
C should ever appear in the compass window, the
compass may need calibration.
Press and hold the on/off button for nine seconds to
activate the compass calibration mode. CAL will
be displayed in the compass window on the mirror.
The mirror can be calibrated by driving the vehicle in
circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less until the display shows
a direction.
