Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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.
Mirror Operation
The right side of the switch located at the bottom of the
mirror turns the electrochromic mirror on and
off. To
turn on the automatic dimming feature, press MIRROR.
To turn off automatic dimming, press MIRROR again.
The indicator light will be illuminated when this feature
is active.
Time Delay
The automatic mirror has a time delay feature which
prevents unnecessary switching from the night back
to
the day position. This delay prevents rapid changing of
the mirror as you drive under lights and through traffic.
Cleaning the Photocells
Use a cotton swab and glass cleaner to clean the
photocells when necessary.
Compass Operation
Press the COMPASS switch 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
approximately two seconds. After two seconds, the
mirror will display the compass heading.
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
needs calibration.
The mirror can be calibrated in one of two ways:
Drive the vehicle in circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less
Drive the vehicle on your everyday routine. until the display reads a direction, or

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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:
3. Find your current location and variance zone number
on the following zone map.
1. Use the COMPASS button located at the bottom of
the
mirror.
2. Press and hold the COMPASS button until a zone
number appears in the display.
4. Press the COMPASS button on the bottom of the
mirror until the new zone number appears in the
display. After
you stop pressing the button, the
display will show a “C” and will need recalibration.

The speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles per
hour (mph) and kilometers per hour
(km/h). The odometer
shows how
far your vehicle has been driven, in either miles
(used in the United States) or kilometers (used in Canada).\

You may wonder what happens if a vehicle has
to have a
new odometer installed. The new one may read the correct
mileage.
This is because your vehicle’s computer has
stored the mileage in memory.
Trip Odometer
There are two trip
odometers, which are indicated by Trip
A
and Trip B. Press the top
of the button
to reset the odometers. For
information on resetting these buttons, see “Control

and the EnglishMetric display button. Press

You can go back and forth
from English (miles) to

In order to switch from one to the other, press the Ah3
portion of the button. By pressing this button, you can tell
how many miles you have traveled on either your Trip
A
or Trip B odometer since you last set the odometer back
to zero. Other readings such
as temperature, fuel and trip
odometer also go back and forth between English and metric.
