Memory (Option)
MEMORY can store and recall the settings for the
driver's seat position, the outside rearview mirror
positions, telescopic steering column (if equipped),
radio presets, tone, volume, playback mode (AM/FM,
tape or CD), last displayed station, compact disc position
and tape direction and the last climate control setting.The MEMORY buttons are located on the driver's
door, above the power mirror controls. The MEMORY
buttons can store and recall settings for up to three
drivers. Use button 1 to store the settings for the first
driver, button 2 for a second driver or press buttons
1 and 2 at the same time for a third driver. To store
your memory settings:
1. Adjust your settings for the driver's seat position,
outside rearview mirror positions, and telescopic
steering wheel (if equipped).
2. Press and hold a MEMORY button. The light
above the MEMORY button will glow steady for
one second and then flash once when the settings
are complete. Then the light will go off.
3. Set the climate control temperature, fan speed and
mode settings, radio presets, tone, volume, playback
mode (AM/FM, tape or CD), tape direction and
compact disc position.
Your memory settings are now programmed.
Any changes that are made to the audio system and
climate controls while driving will be automatically
stored when the ignition key is turned off.

Power/Heated Remote Control Mirrors
The electric mirror control is on the driver's door.
It controls the driver's and passenger's mirrors.
To adjust either mirror, press the LT (left) or RT (right)
button to select the mirror, then press the arrows to
adjust the direction of the mirror. The mirror will stay
selected for 20 seconds after the last adjustment.
An indicator light will come on above the mirror that
you select.Your preferred mirror position can be stored if you have
the memory option. See ªMemoryº in the Index.
For operation of the heated outside mirrors,
see ªRear Window Defoggerº in the Index.
Convex Outside Mirror
Your passenger's side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror's surface is curved so you can see more from
the driver's seat.
CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder
before changing lanes.
