the transmitter. Tripped sensor identification
If the horn sound s four times and the p arking lig ht s flash four times
when you d isarm the system, this ind ic ates that the alarm was trig -
g ered . The numb er of times the ind ic ator lig ht flas hes ind ic ates what
sensor c aused the alarm c ond ition.
To enter id entific ation mod e:
1. Op en the d river ’s d oor and leave it op en.
2. Turn the ig nition switc h to the “ON ” p osition two times. ( “LOCK ” 
“ ON ”  “ LOCK ”  “ ON ”  “ LOCK ”)
3. The ind ic ator lig ht will start flashing .
The ind ic ator lig ht p rovid es the following ind ic ati ons.

Photosensors
HB6020BA
The mirror has a p hotosensor attac hed on b oth the f ront and b ac k
sid es. If the g lare from the head lig hts of vehic les b ehind you strikes
the mirror, these sensors d etec t it and make the re flec tion surfac e of
the mirror d immer to help p revent you from b eing b l ind ed . For this
reason, use c are not to c over the sensors with stic kers, or other simi-
lar items. Period ic ally wip e the sensors c lean usin g a p iec e of d ry soft
c otton c loth or an ap p lic ator. n Compass calibration
1. For op timum c alib ration, switc h off all nonessent ial elec tric al ac -
c essories (rear wind ow d efog g er, heater/air c ond iti oning system,
sp otlig ht, etc .) and ensure all d oors are shut.
2. Drive to an op en, level area away from larg e meta llic ob jec ts or
struc tures and make c ertain the ig nition switc h is in the “ON ” p osition.
3. Press and hold the left b utton for 3 sec ond s then release, and the
c omp ass will enter the c alib ration mod e. “CAL ” and d irec tion will b e
d isp layed .
4. Drive slowly in a c irc le until “CAL ” d isap p ears from the d isp lay
(ab out two or three c irc les).
5. The c omp ass is now c alib rated . Further c alib ratio n is not req uired .
The c omp ass will automatic ally c alib rate from this p oint forward .

AUTO mode operation:
The Automatic Climate Control system automatic ally c ontrols the air
temp erature of the p asseng er c omp artment in the AUT O mod e. When
the “AUTO ” switc h is p ressed , the ind ic ator lig ht “AUTO ” on the c on-

Temperature sensors
This Automatic Climate Control system emp loys the s everal sensors.
These are very d elic ate p arts. Therefore, if these sensors are d am-
ag ed , it is p ossib le that the Automatic Climate Con trol system will not
p rop erly c ontrol the air temp erature in the p asseng er c omp artment.
To p revent p ossib le d amag e to the sensors, p lease o b serve the fol-
lowing :
–Do not allow anything to imp ac t the sensors.
– Be c areful not to let water c ontac t the sensors.
– Do not c over the sensors.
The sensors are found at the following loc ations: – Sun-load sensor (b esid e the wind shield d efroster g r ille)
– In-vehic le temp erature sensor (b esid e the temp eratu re c ontrol
d ial.)
– Amb ient sensor (at the b ac ksid e of the front g rille )
