2005 CHRYSLER PT CRUISER rear view mirror

MIRRORS
Inside Compass/Temperature Mirror
This manual day-night inside rearview mirror has an
integrated compass and outside temperature display,
along with dual map/courtesy lamps with switches for
independent operation. These lamps also turn on to-
gether with the dome lamp.
Adjust the mirror to center the view through the rear
window. A two point pivot system allows for horizontal
and vertical mirror adjustments.
Annoying headlight glare can be reduced by rotating the
small knob under the mirror in the clockwise direction,
so the knob points to the right (night position). The
mirror should be adjusted while set in the day position
(knob points towards rear of vehicle.)

Side Window Demisters
A side window demister outlet is at each end of the
instrument panel. These nonadjustable outlets direct air

outside mirrors.

instrument panel, below the radio. Press this but-
ton to turn on the rear window defroster, and the
optional electric remote control heated mirrors. An amber
light shows that the defroster is on.

minutes of operation. Each following activation of the
defroster will last for five minutes.

CAUTION!
When replacing a blown fuse, it is important to use
only a fuse having the correct amperage rating. The
use of a fuse with a rating other than indicated may
result in a dangerous electrical system overload. If a
properly rated fuse continues to blow, it shows a
problem in the circuit that must be corrected.

•Disengage the mini fuse in the Power Distribution
Center labeled IOD (Ignition Off-Draw).
