Automatic mirror adjustment in reverse
maneuvers (if equipped)
When the transaxle gear is shifted into
reverse (R), the outside rearview mir-
ror(s) will automatically be turned down-
ward about 5 degrees to improve driver
visibility. It will stay in that position until
the transaxle shift lever is shifted out of
reverse (R).L : Both the left and right outside
rearview mirrors will be turned
downward about 5 degrees.
R : Only the right outside rearview mirror will be turned downward
about 5 degrees.
Center : A utomatic mirror adjustment
function is disabled. No mirror
will be turned downward.
The outside rearview mirror(s) will return
to its previous position automatically if
outside rearview mirror selection switch
is changed to another position, or
transaxle shift lever is shifted out of
reverse (R). (Examples)
If the shift lever is shifted into reverse (R)
when the outside rearview mirror selec-
tion switch is in L, both the right and left
outside rearview mirrors will automatical-
ly be turned down about 5 degrees.
If the outside rearview mirror selection
switch is set to R while shift lever is in
reverse (R), the left outside rearview mir-
ror will return to its previous position. The
right outside rearview mirror will not
return to it’s previous position.
If the shift lever is shifted into any other
range OR the outside rearview mirror
selection switch is set to center, the right

3Day/night rearview mirror Adjust the rearview mirror to center on
the view through the rear window. Make
this adjustment before you start driving.
Manual type Make this adjustment before you start
driving and while the day/night lever is in
the day position.
Pull the day/night lever toward you to
reduce glare from the headlights of vehi-
cles behind you during night driving.Remember that you lose some rearview
clarity in the night position. Electric type
The electric rearview mirror automatical-
ly controls the glare from the headlights
of the car behind you in nighttime or low
light driving conditions. The sensor
mounted in the mirror senses the light
level around the vehicle, and through a
chemical reaction, automatically controls
the headlight glare from vehicles behind
you.
When the engine is running, the glare is
automatically controlled by the sensor
mounted in the rearview mirror.
Whenever the shift lever is shifted into
reverse (R), the mirror will automatically
go to the brightest setting in order to
improve the drivers view behind the vehi-
cle.

Features of your vehicle
Your new mirror comes with an integrat-
ed HomeLink Universal Transceiver,
which allows you to program the mirror to
activate your garage door(s), estate gate,
home lighting, etc. The mirror actually
learns the codes from your various exist-
ing transmitters.
ProgrammingYour vehicle may require the ignition
switch to be turned to the ACC position
for programming and/or operation of
HomeLink. It is also recommended that a
new battery be replaced in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being pro-
grammed to HomeLink for quicker train-
ing and accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency.
Follow these steps to train your
HomeLink mirror:
HOMELINK® WIRELESS CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
When programming theHomeLink® Wireless Control
System, you may be operating a
garage door or gate operator.
Make sure that people and objects
are out of the way of the moving
door or gate to prevent potential
harm or damage.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not use HomeLink with anygarage door opener that lacks the
safety stop and reverse feature as
required by federal safety stan-
dards. (This includes any garage
door opener model manufactured
before April 1, 1982.) A garage
door opener which cannot detect
an object, signaling the door to
stop and reverse, does not meet
current federal safety standards.
Using a garage door opener with-
out these features increases risk
of serious injury or death. For
more information, call 1-800-355-
3515 or on the internet at
www.homelink.com.
Retain the original transmitter for future programming procedures
(i.e., new vehicle purchase). It is
also suggested that upon the sale
of the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink buttons be erased for
security purposes (follow step 1
in the “Programming” portion of
this text).

first time, press and hold
the left and
center buttons (

)simultane-
ously until the indicator light begins to
flash after approximately 20 seconds.
(This procedure erases the factory-set
default codes. Do Not perform this step
to program additional hand-held trans-
mitters.)
✽ ✽ NOTICEFor non rolling code garage door open-
ers, follow steps 2 - 3.
For rolling code garage door openers,
follow steps 2 - 6.
For Canadian Programming, please fol-
low the Canadian Programming section.
For help with determining whether your
garage is non-rolling code or rolling
code, please refer to the garage door
openers owner’s manual or contact
HomeLink customer service at 1-800-
355-3515.
2. Press and hold the button on the
HomeLink system you wish to train
and the button on the transmitter while
the transmitter is approximately 1 to 3
inches away from the mirror. Do not
release the buttons until step 3 has
been completed.
3. The HomeLink indicator light will flash, first slowly and then rapidly. When the
indicator light flashes rapidly, both but-
tons may be released. (The rapid flash-
ing light indicates successful program-
ming of the new frequency signal.)✽ ✽NOTICESome gate operators and garage door
openers may require you to replace step
#3 with the “cycling” procedure noted in
the “Canadian Programming” section
of this document.
