If your vehcle  is  equipped  with  an  automatic  transmission, 
it now  features an electronic shift position  indicator  within 
the  instrument  cluster.  This  display  must  be  powered 
anytime  the 
shift lever  is capable of being  moved  out of 
PARK (P). This means  that if your key is in OFF, rather 
than 
LOCK, there  will be a  small  current  drain  on  your 
battery  which  could  discharge  your  battery  over 
a  period 
of time. If you  have  to  leave  your  key in the 
ignition 
in OFF for  an  extended  period,  it  is  recommended 
that  you  disconnect  the  battery  cable  from  the  battery  to 
prevent  discharging  your  battery. 
PARK 
(P): This  locks  your  rear  wheels. It’s the  best 
position  to use  when  you  start your  engine  because  your 
vehicle  can’t  move  easily. 
It is dangerous  to get  out  of your  vehicle  if the 
shift  lever  is  not  fully  in PARK 
(P) with  the 
parking  brake  firmly  set. Your  vehicle  can roll. 
CAUTION:  (Continued) 
I 
Don’t  leave  your  vehicle when the engine is 
running  unless you have  to. If you have  left  the 
engine  running,  the  vehicle can move  suddenly. 
You  or  others  could  be  injured. To be sure  your 
vehicle  won’t  move,  even when  you’re  on  fairly 
level  ground, 
always set  your  parking  brake  and 
move  the shift  lever  to PARK 
(P). 
If you  have  four-wheel  drive,  your  vehicle 
will be free  to  roll -- even if your  shift  lever 
is  in  PARK 
(P) -- if your  transfer  case  is in 
NEUTRAL 
(N). So, be  sure  the  transfer  case  is in 
a  drive  gear, two-wheel  high 
(2H) or four-wheel 
high 
(4H) or  four-wheel  low (4L) -- not in 
NEUTRAL 
(N). See  “Shifting  Into PARK  (P)” in 
the  Index. 
If you’re  pulling  a  trailer,  see “Towing 
a Trailer”  in the  Index.

Mirrors 
Inside  Daymight  Rearview  Mirror 
Press or pull  the  tab  under  the  mirror  to  reduce  glare 
from  headlamps  behind  you  after  dark. 
Electrochromic Inside  Rearview Mirror 
with Compass (If Equipped) 
Your vehicle may have  an  electrochromic  inside 
rearview  mirror. 
When  on,  an  electrochromic  mirror  automatically  dims  to  the  proper  level  to  minimize  glare from lights  behind 
you  after  dark. 
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'. 
ProCarManuals.com 

Mirror Operation 
The  right  side  of  the  switch  located  at  the  bottom  of  the mirror 
turns the  electrochromic  mirror on and off. The 
AUTO LED will come  on  when the electrochromic  mirror 
is  turned 
on. To turn the  mirror  on,  press  and  hold  the 
MIRROR  button  for  three  seconds.  The  mirror  will  darken  and  remain  dark 
until the  button  is  released.  To turn the 
mirror 
off, press  and  release  the  MIRROR  button. 
Compass Operation 
Press  COMP  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. 
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. 
Compass Calibration 
If after two  seconds  the  display  does  not  show a 
compass  heading (“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  mirror  may 
need  calibration. 
The  mirror  can  be calibrated 
in one  of  two  ways: 
Drive  the  vehicle in circles at five mph (8 km/h) or 
less 
until the  display  reads  a direction, or 
0 Drive  the  vehicle  on  your  everyday routine.

Compass Variance 
The mirror  is set  in  zone eight  upon  leaving  the  factory. 
It  will  be  necessary  to  adjust the compass to compensate 
for  compass  variance  if  you  live outside zone eight. 
Under  certain circumstances,  as  during a long  distance 
cross-country  trip, 
it will  be  necessary to adjust  for 
compass  variance.  Compass  variance  is  the  difference 
between  earth’s  magnetic  north  and  true  geographic 
north.  If not  adjusted 
to account  for compass  variance, 
your  compass  could  give  false readings. 
To adjust for  compass  variance: 
1. Use  the  COMP  button  located  at the  bottom  of 
the  mirror. 
2. Press  and  hold  the COMP button for three  seconds 
until  a zone  number  appears in  the  display. 
3. Find  your  current  location  and  variance  zone  number 
on the  following zone  map. 4. Press the COMP  button  on  the  bottom of the  mirror 
until  the  new  zone  number  appears  in  the  display.  After  you  stop pressing  the  button  in, the display  will 
show  a compass  direction  within  a few  seconds.

Speedometer  and  Odometer 
Your speedometer lets  you see your  speed in both  miles 
per  hour  (mph) and kilometers  per hour  (km/h).  Your 
odometer  shows how far your  vehicle  has  been  driven, 
in  either  miles (used in the  United  States) or kilometers 
(used 
in Canada). 
TamperResistant  Odometer 
Your odometer  is tamper-resistant.  The odometer  will 
show  silver lines  between the numbers 
if someone  tries 
to  turn 
it back. 
You may  wonder  what  happens if your  vehicle  needs  a 
new  odometer  installed. If the  new  odometer can  be set 
to  the mileage  total of the  old  odometer,  then 
it must  be. 
But 
if it can’t,  then  it’s set at zero,  and a label  must  be 
put 
on the driver’s door  to  show  the  old  mileage reading 
when  the  new  odometer was installed. 
Wip  Odometer 
The trip odometer  can  tell  you how far your  vehicle  has 
been  driven since 
you last set the  trip odometer  to zero. 
To  reset  the  trip odometer,  fully  press  the reset  button 
located  near  the  trip  odometer readout. If the  reset 
button  is  not  fully  pressed,  the  trip odometer may  not go 
all the  way  back  to zero.  If it doesn’t,  you  may  have  to 
press  the  reset  button  again  to reset  the  readout  to  zero. 
Tachometer 
Your tachometer displays  the engine  speed in 
revolutions  per  minute 
(rpm). 
I NOTICE: 
On  vehicles  with  a  manual  transmission, if you 
operate  the  engine  with  the  tachometer  in  the 
red 
area,  your  engine  or  other  parts  could be damaged. 
Damage 
to your  engine or vehicle  caused  by 
operating  the  engine  in  the  red  area  isn’t  covered 
by  your  vehicle  warranty.  Don’t  operate  the 
engine  with  the  tachometer  in  the  red  area.
