Head Restraints I-he head restraints tilt forward and rearward also.
To adjust the tilt for either of the front head restraints,
pull it toward you until you hear a click. There are
four positions available: initial position, first click, second
click and third click. Each position will click into place.
After the third position (three clicks) is reached,
pulling the head restraint farther will release it back
to
the upright position.
Pull firmly on the top of the head restraint to position it
to your liking.
The rear seat head restraints in your vehicle are
adjustable. Slide an adjustable head restraint up or
down
so that the top of the restraint is closest to the top
of your head. This position reduces the chance of a
neck injury in a crash.
On some models, the head restraints tilt forward and
rearward also.
Adjust your head restraint
so that the top of the restraint
is closest

In many crashes severe enough to inflate an air bag,
windshields are broken by vehicle deformation.
Additional windshield breakage may also occur from the
right front passenger air bag.
Air bags are designed to inflate only once. After an
air bag inflates, you’ll need some new parts for
your air bag system. If you don’t get them, the air
bag system won’t be there to help protect you
in another crash.
A new system will include air bag
modules and possibly other parts. The service
manual for your vehicle covers the need to replace
other parts.
Your vehicle is equipped with electronic frontal
sensors which help the sensing system distinguish
between a moderate and a more severe frontal
impact. Your vehicle is also equipped with a crash
sensing and diagnostic module, which records
information about the frontal air bag system. The
module records information about the readiness of
the system and when the system commands
are bag inflation. It records the status
of the driver’s safety belt usage in
a crash in which the air bag
deploys or a crash in which the air bag nearly
deploys. The module also records speed, engine
RPM, brake and throttle data.
Let only qualified technicians work on your air bag
systems. Improper service can mean that an air
bag system won’t work properly. See your dealer for
service.
Notice: If you damage the covering for the driver’s
or the right front passenger’s air bag, or the air
bag covering
on the driver’s and right front
passenger’s seatback, the bag may not work
properly. You may have to replace the air bag
module in the steering wheel, both the air bag
module and the instrument panel for the right front
passenger’s air bag, or both the air bag module
and seatback for the driver’s and right front passenger’s side impact air bag.
Do not open or
break the air bag coverings.

turned on automatically each time the ignition is started.
To operate the electrochromic mirror do the following:
1.
2.
Make sure the green indicator light, located to
the left of the on/off button, is lit. If it’s not, press

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 of
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.
l-0 adjust for compass variance do the following:
1. Find your current location and variance zone
number on the following zone map.
2. Press and hold the on/off button until a Z and a
zone number appears in the display. The compass
is now in zone mode.
