Outside Automatic Dimming Mirror
The driver’s side mirror will adjust for the glare of
headlamps behind you. This feature is controlled by the
on and off settings on the automatic dimming rearview
mirror.
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 side mirror is convex. A convex mirror’s
surface is curved so more can be seen from the driver’s
seat. This mirror does not have a dimming feature.
Outside Parallel Park Assist Mirror
This feature assists the driver by improving rear obstacle
detection and is useful in viewing the curb when
parallel parking.
Press the left or right mirror symbol on the selector
control to choose the driver or passenger outside mirror.
When the vehicle is shifted into REVERSE (R), the
selected mirror will tilt to a factory programmed position.
If further mirror adjustment is needed press the arrows
located on the outside mirror control pad. If the
outside mirror selector switch is in the middle position,
neither outside mirror will move.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R), and a
ve-second delay has occurred, the mirror will return
to its original position. The delay prevents movement of
the mirror if multiple gear transitions REVERSE (R)
to DRIVE (D) to REVERSE (R) occur during a parallel
parking maneuver.
Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA)
If your vehicle has the Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA)
system, see “Side Blind Zone Alert” in the Index of your
vehicle’s navigation system manual.

When the System Does Not Seem to
Work Properly
The ultrasonic sensors are not clean, a red URPA
display light may illuminate when the vehicle is in
REVERSE (R). Keep your rear bumper free of mud,
dirt, snow, ice and slush. For cleaning instructions,
seeWashing Your Vehicle on page 5-110.
A trailer was attached to your vehicle, or a bicycle
or an object was hanging out of your trunk during
your last drive cycle, the red light may illuminate.
Once the attached object is removed, URPA
will return to normal operation.
The vehicle’s bumper is damaged. Take the vehicle
to your dealer/retailer to repair the system.
Other conditions may affect system performance,
such as vibrations from a jackhammer or the
compression of air brakes on a very large truck.
If the system is still disabled, after driving forward at
least 15 mph (25 km/h), take your vehicle to your
dealer/retailer.
Side Blind Zone Alert
Your vehicle may have a Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA)
system. The SBZA system is an aid that may help
you avoid lane change crashes with vehicles in your side
blind spots (zones). Read the entire section before
using the system. See “Side Blind Zone Alert” in
the Index of the navigation manual.
Lane Departure Warning
Your vehicle may have a Lane Departure Warning
(LDW) system. The LDW system does not steer the
vehicle and is only an aid to help you stay in your driving
lane. Read the entire section before using the system.
See “Lane Departure Warning” in the Index of the
navigation manual.
