Section 2 Features and Controls
2-1

Power Windows
If your vehicle is equipped with power windows, the
window switches are located on the armrest on
the driver’s door. In addition, each passenger door has
a window switch.
Express-Down Window
The driver’s window switch has an express-down feature.
Pull the top of the switch partway, and the driver’s window
will open a small amount. If the switch is pulled all the
way, the window will go all the way down.To stop the window while it is lowering, push the switch
forward. To raise the window, push and hold the
switch forward.
Window Lock Out
On four-door models, the driver’s power window
controls also include a window lock out. When the
lock-out switch is moved to the left (with the red
showing), the driver and passengers will be able to use
their window switches. Move the lock-out switch to
the right to stop the passengers from using their window
switches. The driver can still control all the windows
with the lock on.
Sun Visors
To block out glare, you can swing down the visors and
slide them along the rod to cover different areas of
the front window. You can also swing them to cover the
side windows.
Visor Vanity Mirror
Swing down the driver’s side sun visor and lift the cover
to expose the vanity mirror.

Mirrors
Manual Rearview Mirror
The mirror can be adjusted two ways. First, to adjust
the height of the mirror, adjust the arm that connects the
mirror to the windshield. Second, adjust the angle of
the mirror, by moving the mirror to a position that allows
you to see out of the back window.
To reduce glare from headlamps behind you, move the
lever toward you to the night position. To return the mirror
to the daytime position, move the lever away from you.
Outside Remote Control Mirror
The outside rearview mirror should be adjusted so you
can see a little of the side of your vehicle when you
are sitting in a comfortable driving position.
Adjust the driver’s outside mirror with the control lever
on the driver’s door.
To adjust your passenger’s mirror, sit in the driver’s seat
and have a passenger adjust the mirror for you.
Outside Power Mirrors
If your vehicle has this
feature, this selector knob
controls both outside
rearview mirrors.
Select the mirror you want to adjust by turning the knob
to the left or right. Adjust each mirror so that you can
see the side of your vehicle and the area beside
and behind your vehicle when you are sitting in a
comfortable driving position.
Turn the knob to the center to turn the remote control
mirror off.
