Controls Near the Steering Wheel

The two levers on the steering column contain controls for driving
features you use most often. The left
lever controls the turn signals,
headlights, and high beams. The
right lever controls the windshield
washers and wipers.
The switches for the hazard warning lights and rear window defogger are
located to the right of the steering

column.

The controls under the left air vent are for the TCS, the cruise control,
the power sliding doors and the
power mirrors.
The tilt adjustment lever on the underside of the steering column
allows you to tilt the steering wheel.
* To use the horn, press the pad around the "H" logo.

Mirrors

TAB

Keep the inside and outside mirrors
clean and adjusted for best visibility.
Be sure to adjust the mirrors before
you start driving.
The inside mirror has day and night positions. The night position reduces
glare from headlights behind you. Flip the tab on the bottom edge of
the mirror to select the day or night

position.
Adjust the outside mirrors with the
adjustment switch on the left side of
the dashboard:
1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
2. Move the selector switch to L (driver's side) or R (passenger's

side).
3. Push the appropriate edge of the

adjustment switch to move the

mirror right, left, up or down.
4. When you finish, move the
selector switch to the center (off)

position. This turns off the
adjustment switch so you can't

move a mirror out of position by
accidentally bumping the switch.
