Automatic Dimming Rearview Mirror
®
with OnStar and Compass
Your vehicle may have an automatic dimming rearview
®
mirror with OnStar , a compass and reading lamps.
This feature enables the mirror to sense nighttime glare
from vehicle headlamps from behind and automatically
dim to reduce the glare to a safe level.
The automatic dimming feature turns on each time the
vehicle is started. Press the OFF button once and
the green indicator light located to the left of the button
will go out indicating the feature is off. To turn the
feature back on, press and release the AUTO button
and the green indicator light will come on.
The reading lamps, located under the mirror, can be

There are three additional buttons for the OnStar
system. See your dealer for more information on the
system and how to subscribe to OnStar
in the Index for more information.
Compass Operation
Press the on/off button 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 a
few seconds. After a few seconds, the mirror will display
the current compass direction.
Compass Calibration
If after a few 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, note pad holder, or similar object. If the
letter C appears in the compass window, the compass
may need to be reset or calibrated.
The mirror can be calibrated by driving the vehicle in
circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less until the display reads
a direction.
