If your vehicle's battery remains in a heavy discharge condition for a long period of time, the fan, rear defogger, heated seats and heated mirrors will be disabled and the DIC will display BATTERY SAVER ACTIVE. This can happen either under long periods of idling or low speed driving with high electrical loading, or in the event of a charging system fault. Monitor the battery voltage when in the BATTERY SAVER ACTIVE mode. D If the voltmeter remains in the shaded area (below 11 volts) when driving then have the charging system serviced immediately. D If the voltage increases above 12 volts then the battery needs to be recharged. Try driving on the highway with as few electrical accessories on as possible. Electrochromic Day/Night Rearview Mirror (If Equipped) Your vehicle may have an automatic electrochromic day/night rearview mirror. Your vehicle's mirror may also contain OnStarR controls. (On/Off): This is the on/off button for mirrors equipped with OnStar controls. When this feature is turned on, the mirror automatically changes to reduce glare from headlamps behind you. A photocell on the mirror senses when it is becoming dark outside. Another photocell built into the mirror face senses when headlamps are behind you. At night, when the glare is too high, the mirror will gradually darken to reduce glare (this change may take a few seconds). The mirror will return to its clear daytime state when the glare is reduced. Mirror Operation To turn on the automatic dimming feature, press AUTO (or the on/off button for mirrors equipped with OnStar controls). To turn off automatic dimming, press OFF (or the on/off button for mirrors equipped with OnStar controls). The indicator light will be illuminated when this feature is active. Mirrors Inside Day/Night Manual Rearview Mirror When you are sitting in a comfortable driving position, adjust the mirror so you can see clearly behind your vehicle.
