The mirror will automatically return to the normal state whenever the
vehicle is placed in R (Reverse) to ensure a bright clear view when
backing up.
Do not block the sensors on the front and back of the interior
rear view mirror since this may impair proper mirror
performance.
Do not clean the housing or glass of any mirror with harsh
abrasives, fuel or other petroleum-based cleaning products.
Note:If equipped with a reverse camera system, a video image will
display in the mirror or the Navigation system display (if equipped)
when the vehicle is put in R (Reverse). As you shift into any other gear
from R (Reverse), the image will remain for a few seconds and then turn
off. Refer toReverse camera systemin theDrivingchapter.
EXTERIOR MIRRORS
Power side view mirrors (if equipped)
To adjust your mirrors:
1. Rotate the control clockwise to
adjust the right mirror and rotate
the control counterclockwise to
adjust the left mirror.
2. Move the control in the direction
you wish to tilt the mirror.
3. Return to the center position to lock mirrors in place.
Spotter mirror (if equipped)
Note:New spotter mirrors may be stiff, requiring several cycles before
the spotter adjustment effort eases.
Spotter mirror on standard
mirror (if equipped)
The spotter mirror only can be tilted
from top to bottom. Move the lower
mirror manually up/down to increase
side and rear visibility. Apply
pressure only in the center of the
spotter mirror along the top or
bottom edges to adjust the tilt feature.Do not apply any force on the
left or right edges of the standard mirror spotter section, as this
may lead to a mirror fracture.

With the ignition on, the message
center, located on your instrument
cluster, displays important vehicle
informationthrough a constant
monitor of vehicle systems.Yo u
may select display features on the
message center for a display of status. The system will also notify you of
potential vehicle problems with a display of system warnings followed by
a long indicator chime.
Selectable features
Press and release the SELECT/RESET stem, located in the speedometer,
to scroll and reset the following functions. Select or reset the function by
holding the SELECT/RESET stem for more than two seconds.

Distance to empty (DTE)
Selecting this function from the
INFO MENU estimates
approximately how far you can drive
with the fuel remaining in your tank
under normal driving conditions.
Remember to turn the ignition off
when refueling to allow this feature to correctly detect the added fuel.
The DTE function will display XXX MILES TO E FUEL LEVEL LOW and
sound a chime for one second when you have approximately 50 miles
(80 km) to empty. If you RESET this warning message, this display and
chime will return within 10 minutes.
DTE is calculated using a running average fuel economy, which is based
on your recent driving history of 500 miles (800 km). This value is not
the same as the average fuel economy display. The running average fuel
economy is re-initialized to a factory default value if the battery is
disconnected.
Average fuel economy (AFE)
Select this function to display your
average fuel economy in miles/gallon
or liters/km.
If you calculate your average fuel
economy by dividing miles traveled
by gallons of fuel used (liters of fuel used by 100 kilometers traveled),
your figure may be different than displayed for the following reasons:
•Your vehicle was not perfectly level during fill-up
•Differences in the automatic shut-off points on the fuel pumps at
service stations
•Variations in top-off procedure from one fill-up to another
•Rounding of the displayed values to the nearest 0.1 gallon (liter)
1. Drive the vehicle at least 5 miles (8 km) with the speed control
system engaged to display a stabilized average.
2. Record the highway fuel economy for future reference.
It is important to press the SELECT/RESET stem (press and hold for
two seconds in order to reset the function) after setting the speed
control to get accurate highway fuel economy readings.

System warnings
System warnings alert you to possible problems or malfunctions in your
vehicle’s operating systems.
In the event of a multiple warning situation, the message center will
cycle the display to show all warnings by displaying each one for four
seconds.
The message center will display the last selected feature if there are no
more warning messages. This allows you to use the full functionality of
the message center after you acknowledge the warning by pressing the
SELECT/RESET stem and clearing the warning message.
Warning messages that have been reset are divided into two categories:
•They will reappear on the display 10 minutes from the reset.
•They will not reappear until an ignition off-on cycle has been
completed.
This acts as a reminder that these warning conditions still exist within
the vehicle.
