Section 2 Features and Controls
2-1
Cleaning the Mirror
Use a paper towel or similar material dampened with
glass cleaner. Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the
mirror as that may cause the liquid cleaner to enter
the mirror housing.
Outside Power Mirrors
The controls are located
on the driver’s door
armrest.Move the upper selector switch to the left or right to
choose the mirror you want to adjust; then press
the dots located on the four-way control pad to adjust
the mirror.
The mirrors may also include a memory function which
works in conjunction with the memory seats. See
Memory Seat on page 2-51for more information.
Power Folding Mirrors
To fold or unfold the mirrors, move the selector switch,
located above the mirror control, to the middle
position. The mirror control will illuminate. Press the
right or left side of the mirror control to fold or unfold the
mirrors. You may notice the mirror glass adjust as the
mirrors fold in; this is normal. The mirror glass will
reposition itself once the mirrors are unfolded.

they may shake or utter at normal driving speeds
and may not stay in the unfolded position. If this
happens, you will need to reset the mirrors. See
“Resetting the Power Folding Mirrors” next.
2-37
Resetting the Power Folding Mirrors
You will need to reset the power folding mirrors if:
They are accidently manually folded/unfolded.
The mirrors will not stay in the unfolded position.
The mirrors shake and utter at normal driving
speeds.
To reset the power folding mirrors, fold and unfold them
at least three times using the mirror controls. This will
reset them to their normal detent position.
Outside Convex 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.
2-38

of the sunroof by tilting it upward. To use the vent
position, start with the sunroof in the fully closed
position, then press and hold the front side of the
switch until the sunroof reaches the desired
vent position or until it stops moving. To close the
sunroof from the vent position, press and hold
the rear side of the switch until the sunroof is fully
closed.
Do not to leave the sunroof open for long periods of
time as debris may collect in the tracks.
Sunshade Operation
The sunshade will open automatically when opening the
sunroof.
To adjust the sunshade, pull it backward or forward to
the desired position. The sunshade can not be
closed further than the current closed position of the
sunroof.
Although the sunshade opens automatically when
opening the sunroof, it must be manually pulled closed
after closing the sunroof.
Vehicle Personalization
Memory Seat
If your vehicle has this
feature, the controls for the
memory function are
located on the driver’s door.
These buttons are used to program and recall memory
settings for the driver’s seat, both the driver’s and
passenger’s outside mirror, the radio station presets,
and the previously used climate control system settings.
The settings for these features can be personalized
for both driver 1 and driver 2. Driver 1 or driver 2
corresponds to the memory buttons labeled 1 and 2 on
the driver’s door and the numbers on the back of
the remote keyless entry transmitters.
2-51

1. Adjust the driver’s seat (including the seatback
recliner, lumbar, and side wing area), both of the
outside mirrors, and the radio station presets to your
preference.
2. Press and hold the 1 or 2 (for driver 1 or 2) button
of the memory control for three seconds. A double
chime will sound to let you know that the position
has been stored.
To repeat the procedure for a second driver, follow the
preceding steps, but press the other numbered
memory control button.
Each time button 1 or 2 is pressed and released while
the vehicle is in PARK (P), a single chime will sound and
the memory position will be recalled.If you use the unlock button on the remote keyless entry
transmitter to enter your vehicle, the preset driver’s
seat, mirror positions, radio station presets and
the previously used climate control system settings will
be recalled if programmed to do so through the
Driver Information Center (DIC). SeeDIC Operation and
Displays on page 3-44. The numbers on the back of
the transmitters, 1 or 2, correspond to the numbers on
the memory controls.
The seat, radio station presets and mirror positions can
also be recalled when placing the key in the ignition
if programmed to do so through the Driver Information
Center (DIC). SeeDIC Operation and Displays on
page 3-44.
To stop recall movement of the memory seat feature at
any time, press one of the memory buttons or power
seat controls.
