Keys
{CAUTION:
Leaving children in a vehicle with the ignition
key is dangerous for many reasons. They could
operate the power windows or other controls or
even make the vehicle move. The children or
others could be badly injured or even killed.
Do not leave the keys in a vehicle with children.
Your vehicle’s key can be used for the ignition as well
as the driver’s door lock, the oor console, and the glove
box. If you need a new key, contact your dealer, who
can obtain the correct key code.

Outside Convex Mirror
{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.
The passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex mirror’s
surface is curved so more can be seen from the driver’s
seat. It also makes things appear farther away than they
really are.
Outside Heated Mirrors
If the vehicle has this feature, the outside rearview
mirrors are heated when the rear window defogger is
turned on. See “Rear Window Defogger” underClimate
Control System on page 3-28,Dual Climate Control

to the end of the hose that has the pressure gage.
