1-4 Memory Seat, Mirrors and Steering
Wheel (Option)
The controls for these
features are located on the
driver's door panel, and are
used to program and recall
memory settings.
Adjust the driver's seat (including the recliner, lumbar,
and head restraint adjustments), both the outside mirrors
and steering wheel to a comfortable position and then
press the MEMORY SET button. Within five seconds,
press button 1 (for driver 1).
A second mirror, seating and steering wheel position
can be programmed by repeating the above steps and
pressing button 2 (for driver 2). Each time a memory
button is pressed, a single beep will sound. Each time
button 1 or 2 is pressed, the memory positions will be
recalled. Two personalized exit positions can be set by first recalling the driving position (1 or 2), positioning
the wheel and seat (except the lumbar and head
restraints) in the desired exit positions and then pressing
the MEMORY SET button and, within five seconds,
pressing the EXIT button. The exit position for either
previously set driver can be recalled by pressing the
EXIT button.
If you use the remote keyless entry transmitter to enter
your vehicle, automatic seat and mirror movement will
occur. The numbers on the back of the transmitters,
1 and 2, correspond directly to the numbers on the
buttons on the door panel and each seat and mirror
can be programmed to suit driver 1 or 2.
When the key is placed in the ignition in the OFF
position or when the unlock button is pressed on the
transmitter, the seats and mirrors will automatically
adjust to the programmed position.
Programming for automatic mirror and/or seat
movement is done through the Driver Information
Center (DIC). You can choose to either select or not
select automatic seat and/or mirror movement using the
transmitter or by placing your key in the ignition. For
programming information, see ªVehicle Programming
and Personalization Featuresº in the Index.

2-11 Trunk Lock Release
The trunk lock release
button is located on the left
side of the instrument panel
below the lamp controls.
To use this feature, your vehicle must be in PARK (P) or
NEUTRAL (N) (if the ignition is on) and the VALET
lockout button must be in the OFF position.
To open the trunk, press the trunk lock release
button upward.
You can also press the trunk release button on the
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter to access the
trunk compartment.
Rear Seat Pass-Through Door (If Equipped)
The rear seat pass-through release button is located in
the trunk. To release the pass
-through door, press the
PUSH button located in the center of the trunk panel.
The rear
-seat armrest must be down for the
pass
-through door to open. You may close the door
from inside the vehicle.

2-49 Illuminated Entry
The illuminated entry system turns on the courtesy
lamps and the backlighting to the driver's door switches
and to the ignition key when a door is opened or if you
press the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter
unlock button. The illuminated entry system works with
the light sensor and it must be dark outside in order
for the courtesy lamps or backlighting to turn on. The
courtesy lamps turn off approximately 25 seconds after
the last door is closed or after the ignition key is turned
to RUN or if the RKE transmitter lock button is pressed.
The courtesy lamps turn off approximately 40 seconds
after the doors are unlocked with the RKE transmitter
if no door is opened.
Parade Dimming
This feature prohibits the dimming of the instrument
panel lights during daylight while the parking lamps are
on. This feature works with the light sensor and is fully
automatic. When the light sensor reads darkness outside,
the instrument panel lights can be adjusted by following
the steps under ªInstrument Panel Intensity/Brightness
Control.º Backlighting to the instrument panel will
also turn on.
Reading Lamps
The reading lamps are located in the roof. These lamps
and the interior courtesy lamps come on when any door
is opened and it is dark outside. The rear lamps come on
when a rear door is opened. Press the button near the
lamps to turn them on and off.
If the reading lamps are left on, they automatically shut
off 10 minutes after the ignition has been turned off.
Battery Load Management
The battery load management feature is designed to
monitor the vehicle's electrical load and determine when
the battery is in a heavy discharge condition. During
times of high electrical loading, the engine may idle
at a higher revolutions per minute (rpm) setting than
normal to make sure the battery charges. High electrical
loads may occur when several of the following are on:
headlamps, high beams, fog lamps, rear window
defogger, high blower fan, heated seats and engine
cooling fans.

2-53 Power Remote Control Mirror (Heated)
This feature is located on
the driver's door armrest.
Move the L/R select switch
located under the power
mirror control to choose
the left or right mirror.
To adjust the mirror, move the arrow control in the direction
you want the mirror to go. Leave the L/R select switch in
the center position to disable mirror movement. This is
helpful in preventing unwanted mirror movement in case
the control is accidentally bumped while driving. Adjust
each outside mirror so the vehicle is barely visible in the
mirror to maximize your side view.The mirrors can also be programmed for personalization
and parallel parking feature if you have the optional
memory package. For more information, see ªMemory
Seat, Mirrors and Steering Wheelº and ªVehicle
Programming and Personalization Featuresº in the
Index. For information on the heated outside mirrors,
see ªRear Window Defoggerº in the Index.
Driver's Outside Auto-Dimming
Rearview Mirror
Only the driver's side outside mirror will adjust for the
glare of headlamps behind you. This feature is controlled
by pressing the MIRROR side of the button on and off.
This button is located at the bottom of the electrochromic
mirror. See ªElectrochromic Day/Night Rearview Mirror
with Compassº in the Index for more information.

Comfort Controls
This section tells you how to make your air system
work for you.
Climate Control Panel
Your vehicle is equipped with a dual-zone electronic
climate control system. This system can automatically
adjust and control temperature, fan speed, air delivery
mode, air conditioning operation and air intake. You
can use the AUTO (automatic) setting or override the
automatic operation by manually altering the controls.
If your vehicle is equipped with the Climate Control
Personalization feature, you will be able to program
your preferred climate control settings by using your
remote keyless entry transmitter. See ªClimate Control
Personalizationº in the Index.
AUTO: The AUTO button will turn on the system
and automatically adjust the fan blower speed, air
delivery mode and temperature to your previously
programmed settings.
TEMP: This knob adjusts the air temperature coming
through the system. Turn the TEMP knob clockwise
to increase the temperature and counterclockwise to
decrease the temperature. You may also press the TEMP
knob to turn the system on and off. (You can turn the
comfort control system on by pressing any button on
the panel. The passenger's TEMP knob only turns off
the system of the passenger's side.) Once the system is
turned off, fresh air will continue to flow through the
vehicle, and the system will try to maintain the
previously set temperature.
Driver's Side Temperature Knob
You can control the temperature of the driver's side
independently from the passenger's side. Turn the driver's
side TEMP knob clockwise to increase the temperature
and counterclockwise to decrease the temperature.

3-10 HVAC Steering Wheel Controls
Some heating and cooling
controls can be adjusted at
the steering wheel. Other
touch controls operate some
audio controls. See ªAudio
Steering Wheel Controlsº
in the Index.
TEMP: Press the up arrow on the control to increase the
temperature and the down arrow to decrease temperature.
FAN: Press the up arrow on the control to increase the
fan speed and the down arrow to decrease fan speed.
Climate Control Personalization
(If Equipped)
With this feature, your vehicle will recall the latest
climate control settings as adjusted the last time your
vehicle was operated. These settings include the set
temperatures for driver and passenger, air conditioning,
mode and fan speed. (This feature does not recall
recirculation or defrost modes.) This feature allows two
different drivers to store and recall their own climate
control settings. The settings recalled by the climate
control system are determined by which Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter (ª1º or ª2º) was
used to enter the vehicle. The number on the back of the
RKE transmitter corresponds to driver 1 or to driver 2.
After any button is pressed on the RKE transmitter or
the key is placed in the ignition, the climate control
settings will automatically adjust to where they were last
set. The settings can also be changed by briefly pressing
buttons 1 or 2 located on the driver's door.
