Outside Curb View Assist Mirror
If the vehicle has this feature, the passenger’s
outside mirror will adjust to a preset tilt position
while the vehicle is in REVERSE (R) gear.
Curb view assist may be useful when you are
parallel parking. The mirror will return to normal
position when the vehicle is shifted out of
REVERSE (R) gear. Automatic mirror movement
in either direction will follow a short delay.
You may be able to turn this feature on or off
through the Driver Information Center (DIC).
SeeDIC Vehicle Customization on page 231.
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 or left lane, you could hit a
vehicle. Check your inside mirror or
glance over your shoulder before
changing lanes.
The passenger’s outside mirror is convex.
A convex mirror’s surface is curved so more can
be seen from the driver’s seat.

and do not repeat this step to program a
second and/or third hand-held transmitter to
the remaining two Universal Home Remote
buttons.
2. Hold the end of your hand-held transmitter
about 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the
Universal Home Remote buttons while keeping
the indicator light in view.
3. At the same time, press and hold both the
desired Universal Home Remote button and
the hand-held transmitter button. Do not
