speeds.

outside mirror will adjust for the glare of headlamps
behind you. This feature is controlled by the on and off
settings found on the electrochromic mirror.

the preceding steps, but press the other numbered
memory control button.
To recall a memory position, do one of the following:
If you have an automatic transmission, press
and release the desired button 1 or 2 while
the vehicle is in PARK (P). A single chime will
sound and the memory position will be recalled.

release the desired button 1 or 2 while the parking
brake is set. A single chime will sound and the
memory position will be recalled.
