Matching Transmitter(s) to
Your Vehicle
Each remote keyless entry transmitter is coded to
prevent another transmitter from unlocking your vehicle.
If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can
be purchased through your dealer. Remember to bring
any remaining transmitters with you when you go to
your dealer. When the dealer matches the replacement
transmitter to your vehicle, any remaining transmitters
must also be matched. Once your dealer has coded the
new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock
your vehicle. Each vehicle can have a maximum of four
transmitters matched to it.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote keyless
entry transmitter should last about four years.
You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter won’t
work at the normal range in any location. If you have
to get close to your vehicle before the transmitter works,
it’s probably time to change the battery.
Notice:When replacing the battery, use care not
to touch any of the circuitry. Static from your
body transferred to these surfaces may damage
the transmitter.

Sport Mode Button
(Automatic Transmission)
This button allows you to change the driving mode of
the vehicle from the normal driving mode to a sportier
driving mode. In sport mode the vehicle will have rmer
shifting and increased performance.
The sport mode button is
located on the center
console near the
transmission shift lever.
Press the button once to turn on the sport mode. Press
the button again to return to normal driving mode.This light located on the
instrument panel cluster
will come on while
the sport mode is active.
When driving in sport mode, the transmission may
remain in a gear longer than it would in normal driving
mode. Also, if the transmission is in AUTOMATIC
OVERDRIVE (D) when the sport mode button is
pressed, the transmission will immediately downshift
into FOURTH (4) gear to provide more power. Both of
these situations are normal and do not indicate a
transmission problem.
When you turn off the ignition while driving in sport
mode, the vehicle will remain in sport mode. If
your vehicle is equipped with the memory feature, the
transmission mode (sport or normal) will be saved
with the memory seat position. Press the sport mode
button again to turn off the feature and return to normal
driving mode.

Press the left or right mirror symbol on the selector
switch to choose the driver’s side or passenger’s side
mirror. The center position turns the control off so
that the mirrors will not move if the control pad
is touched.
Once a mirror is selected, use the arrows on the control
pad to move the mirror to the correct direction. Adjust
each mirror so you can see the side of your vehicle and
the area behind your vehicle.
The mirrors can be manually folded inward to prevent
damage when going through an automatic car wash. To
fold, push the mirror toward the vehicle. To return the
mirror to its original position, push outward. Be sure
to return both mirrors to their original unfolded position
before driving.
If the vehicle has the memory package, the mirrors can
be programmed for personalization and curb view
assist. For more information, seeMemory Seat and
Mirrors on page 2-53andDIC Vehicle Personalization
on page 3-88.
Outside Curb View Assist Mirror
If the vehicle has the memory seat and mirrors, it will be
capable of adjusting the passenger’s mirror to tilt to a
preselected position when the vehicle is shifted into
REVERSE (R). Use this outside curb view assist feature
to view the curb when parallel parking.When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R) and
after a ve-second delay, the passenger’s mirror
will return to its original position.
If further adjustment is needed after the mirror is tilted,
the mirror controls can be used. SeeOutside Power
Mirrors on page 2-43for more information.
The outside curb view assist can be turned or off
through the Driver Information Center (DIC). See
DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-88for
more information.
Outside Convex Mirror
The passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror’s surface is curved so that more can be seen
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.

obstruction. The sunroof will then return to the full-open
or vent position. To close the sunroof once it has
re-opened, turn the control to the closed position.
