3. Press the compass/temperature button on the
bottom of the mirror until the new zone number
appears in the display. After you stop pressing
the button, the display will show a compass
direction within a few seconds.
Cleaning the Mirror
Use a paper towel or similar material dampened with
glass cleaner. Do not spray glass cleaner directly
on the mirror as that may cause the liquid cleaner
to enter the mirror housing.
Outside Power Mirrors
The outside power mirror
controls are located on
the driver’s door.To adjust the power mirrors, do the following:
1. Press the left side of the selector switch to choose
the driver side mirror. Press the right side of the
selector switch to choose the passenger side mirror.
2. Use the round, four-way control pad to move
the mirror in the desired direction.
If the mirror begins making a ratcheting sound, the
mirror has reached the end of its travel and can go no
farther in that direction. To stop the sound, reverse
the mirror direction using the control pad.
The mirrors can be manually folded inward to prevent
damage when going through an automatic car wash
or con ned space. Pull the mirror toward the vehicle to
fold. To return the mirror to its original position, push
outward. Be sure to return both mirrors to the unfolded
position before driving.
