2019 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD Owners Manual - Exterior Mirrors

Exterior Mirrors

The passenger side mirror is convex shaped. A convex mirror's surface is curved so more can be seen from the driver seat.

If equipped, adjust manual mirrors by moving the mirror up and down or left to right to see a little of the side of the vehicle and to have a clear view behind the vehicle.

Using hood-mounted air deflectors and add-on convex mirror attachments could decrease mirror performance.

If equipped, adjust trailer-tow mirrors for a clear view of the area behind you. Manually pull out the mirror head to extend it for better visibility when towing a trailer.

The lower portion of the mirror is convex. A convex mirror's surface is curved to see more from the driver

seat. The convex mirror can be adjusted manually to the driver preferred position for better vision.

The mirror may have a turn signal arrow that flashes in the direction of the turn or lane change.

If equipped with power mirrors:

Press (1) or (2) to select the driver or passenger side mirror.

Press the arrows on the control pad to move the mirror in the desired direction.

Adjust each outside mirror so that a little of the vehicle and the area behind it can be seen.

Keep the selector switch in the center position when not adjusting mirrors.

Press (1) or (2) to select the driver or passenger side mirror.

Press the arrows on the control pad while the indicator light on button (1) or (2) is illuminated, to move the mirror in the desired direction.

Adjust each outside mirror so that a little of the vehicle and the area behind it can be seen.

Press either (1) or (2) again to deselect the mirror.

If you do not deselect the mirror, the feature will turn off after about

one minute.

If equipped, the mirrors may include a memory function that works with the memory seats. See Memory Seats 0 60.

If equipped with power folding mirrors:

Press (2) to fold the mirrors out to the driving position.

Press (2) again to fold the mirrors in to the folded position.

The mirrors may also include a memory function that works with the memory seats. See Memory Seats 0 60.

Resetting the Power Folding Mirrors

Reset the power folding mirrors if:

The mirrors are accidentally obstructed while folding.

They are accidentally manually folded/unfolded.

The mirrors will not stay in the unfolded position.

The mirrors vibrate at normal driving speeds.

Manually fold both mirrors if they are out of sync. Fold and unfold the mirrors three times using the mirror

controls to reset them to their normal position. A popping noise may be heard. This sound is normal after a manual folding operation.

If equipped, push the mirror toward the vehicle to fold. Push the mirror outward to return to its original position.

Manually fold the mirrors inward to prevent damage when going through an automatic car wash.

If equipped, press and hold Q on the RKE transmitter for

approximately one second to automatically fold the exterior mirrors. Press and hold K on the RKE transmitter for approximately one second to unfold. See Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) System Operation 0 36.

This feature is turned on or off through vehicle personalization. See Vehicle Personalization 0 160.

If equipped, indicator lights on the mirror flash in the direction of the turn or lane change.

K : If equipped, the rear window defogger also heats the outside mirrors.

W : If equipped, press to turn the heated outside mirrors on or off.

If the vehicle has trailer-tow mirrors, only the upper glass of the mirror is heated. The lower convex part of the towing mirrors is not heated.

See “Rear Window Defogger” under Climate Control Systems (with Heater Only) 0 216 or Climate Control Systems (with Air Conditioning) 0 218 or Dual Automatic Climate Control System 0 219.

If equipped, the driver outside mirror automatically adjusts for the glare of the headlamps from behind. This feature comes on when the vehicle is started.

If equipped, there is a small convex mirror built into the upper and outer corner of the driver outside mirror. It can show objects that may be in the vehicle's blind zone.

Actual Mirror View

When the approaching vehicle is a long distance away, the image in the main mirror is small and near the inboard edge of the mirror.

As the vehicle gets closer, the image in the main mirror gets larger and moves outboard.

As the vehicle enters the blind zone, the image transitions from the main mirror to the blind spot mirror.

When the vehicle is in the blind zone, the image only appears in the blind spot mirror.

Set the main mirror so that the side of the vehicle can just be seen and the blind spot mirror has an unobstructed view.

When checking for traffic or before changing a lane, look at the main driver/passenger side mirror to observe traffic in the adjacent lane, behind your vehicle. Check the blind spot

mirror for a vehicle in the blind zone. Then, glance over your shoulder to double check before moving slowly into the adjacent lane.

If equipped with memory seats, the passenger and/or driver mirror tilts to a preselected position when the vehicle is in R (Reverse). This allows the curb to be seen when parallel parking.

The mirror(s) return to the original position when:

The vehicle is shifted out of R (Reverse), or remains in R (Reverse) for about

30 seconds.

The ignition is turned off.

The vehicle is driven in

R (Reverse) above a set speed.

To turn this feature on or off, see
