Outside Automatic Dimming Mirror
The driver’s side mirror adjusts for the glare of
headlamps behind you. This feature is controlled by the
on and off settings on the inside automatic dimming
rearview mirror. SeeAutomatic Dimming Rearview
Mirror on page 2-38for more information.
Park Assist Mirror
Vehicles with the memory package are capable of having
the passenger mirror tilt to a preselected position when
the vehicle is in R (Reverse). This feature lets the driver
view the curb when parallel parking. If further adjustment
is needed after the mirror is tilted, the mirror switch may
be used. The mirror then returns to this new position
when the vehicle is shifted into R (Reverse).
When the vehicle is shifted out of R (Reverse) and a
ve-second delay has occurred, the passenger
side mirror returns to its original position.
Turn this feature on or off through the Driver Information
Center (DIC). SeeDIC Vehicle Personalization on
page 3-72for more information.
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 the right. Check the inside mirror or
glance over your shoulder before changing lanes.
The passenger side mirror is convex shaped. A convex
mirror’s surface is curved so more can be seen from
the driver’s seat.
Outside Heated Mirrors
<(Rear Window Defogger):Press to heat the
mirrors. See “Rear Window Defogger” underDual
Climate Control System on page 3-36.
Store the preferred mirror position by using the memory
option. SeeMemory Seat, Mirrors and Steering
Wheel on page 1-3.

Automatic Operation
AUTO (Automatic):When this button is pressed and
the temperature is set, the system automatically controls
the temperature, air delivery mode, air conditioning
compressor and the fan speed. AUTO will appear on
the display.
1. Press the AUTO button.
2. Adjust the temperature to a comfortable setting
between 70°F (21°C) and 80°F (27°C). An initial
setting of 73°F (23°C) is suggested.
Choosing the warmest or coldest temperature
setting will not cause the system to heat or cool
any faster. If the system is set at the warmest
or coldest temperature setting, the system remains
in manual mode at that temperature and it will
not go into automatic mode.
In cold weather, the system will start at reduced fan
speeds to avoid blowing cold air into your vehicle
until warmer air is available. The system starts
out blowing air at the oor but may change modes
automatically as the vehicle warms up to maintain
the chosen temperature setting. The length of
time needed for warm up will depend on the outside
temperature and the length of time that has
elapsed since the vehicle was last driven.
3. Wait for the system to regulate. This may take from
10 to 30 minutes. Then adjust the temperature,
if necessary.
