OUTSIDE MIRRORS
To receive maximum benefit, adjust
the outside mirrors to center on the
adjacent lane of traffic and a slight
overlap of the view obtained from the
inside mirror.
NOTE:
The passenger side convex outside
mirror will give a much wider view
to the rear, and especially of the
lane next to your vehicle.WARNING!
Vehicles and other objects seen in
the passenger side convex mirror
will look smaller and farther away
than they really are. Relying too
much on your passenger side convex
mirror could cause you to collide
with another vehicle or other object.
Use your inside mirror when judging
the size or distance of a vehicle seen
in the passenger side convex mirror.POWER MIRRORS
The power mirror switch is located on
the driver's door trim. A rotary knob
selects the left mirror, right mirror or
off position.
After selecting a mirror, move the
knob in the same direction you want
the mirror to move. When finished,
return the knob to the center “O”
(Off) position to guard against acci-
dentally moving a mirror position.
HEATED MIRRORS
These mirrors are heated to
melt frost or ice. This feature is
activated whenever you turn
on the rear window defroster. Refer to
“Rear Window Features” in “Under-
standing The Features Of Your Ve-
hicle” for further information.
VANITY MIRROR
A vanity mirror is attached to the
inside face of the sun visor. To use the
mirror, rotate the sun visor downward

76
Speak normally, without pausing,just as you would speak to a person
sitting a few meters away from you.
Make sure that no one other than you is speaking during a voice pe-
riod.
Performance is maximized under: low-to-medium blower setting,
low-to-medium vehicle speed,
low road noise,
smooth road surface,
fully closed windows,
dry weather conditions.
Even though the system is designed for users speaking in European
English, Dutch, French, German,
Italian, or Spanish accents, the sys-
tem may not always work for some.
When navigating through an auto- mated system such as voice mail, or
when sending a page, at the end of
speaking the digit string, make sure
to say “Send”.
Storing names in the phonebook when the vehicle is not in motion is
recommended. It is not recommended to store simi-
lar sounding names in the
Uconnect™ Phonebook.
Phonebook (Downloaded and Uconnect™ Phone Local) recogni-
tion rate is optimized when the en-
tries are not similar.
Numbers must be spoken in single digits. “800” must be spoken
“eight-zero-zero” not “eight hun-
dred”.
You can say “O” (letter “O”) for “0” (zero).
Even though international dialing for most number combinations is
supported, some shortcut dialing
number combinations may not be
supported.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
DESCRIPTIONS
1. Temperature Gauge
The temperature gauge shows engine
coolant temperature. Any reading be-
low theH(red) mark of the gauge
shows that the engine cooling system
is operating properly. The gauge
pointer may show a higher than nor-
mal temperature when driving in hot
weather, up mountain grades, in
heavy stop and go traffic, or when
towing a trailer.
If the pointer rises to the H(red)
mark, the instrument cluster will
sound a chime. Pull over and stop the
vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air
conditioner turned off until the
pointer drops back into the normal
range. If the pointer remains on the H
(red) mark, turn the engine off imme-
diately and call for service.
There are steps that you can take to
slow down an impending overheat
condition. If your air conditioning is
on, turn it off. The air conditioning
system adds heat to the engine cooling
system and turning off the A/C re- moves this heat. You can also turn the
Temperature control to maximum
heat, the Mode control to Floor and
the Fan control to High. This allows
the heater core to act as a supplement
to the radiator and aids in removing
heat from the engine cooling system.
2. Fuel Door Reminder
This is a reminder that the
Fuel Filler Door is located
on the left side of the ve-
hicle.
3. Fuel Gauge
When the ignition switch is in the
ON/RUN position, the pointer will
show the level of fuel remaining in the
fuel tank.
4. Speedometer
Indicates the vehicle speed in miles
per hour (MPH) and kilometers per
hour (km/h). 5. Low Fuel Light
When the fuel level drops to ap-
proximately 7.6 Liters, the fuel
symbol will light and a single
chime will sound.
NOTE:
This light will remain on until a
minimum of approximately 11 Li-
ters of fuel is added.
6. Charging System Light This light shows the status of
the electrical charging system.
The light should come on briefly when
the ignition is first turned on and re-
main on briefly as a bulb check. If the
light stays on or comes on while driv-
ing, turn off some of the vehicle'selec-
trical devices, such as the Front Fog
Lights or Rear Window Defroster. If
the Charging System Light remains
on, it means that the vehicle is expe-
riencing a problem with the charging
system. Obtain SERVICE IMMEDI-
ATELY. See your local authorized
dealer.
If jump starting is required, refer to
“Jump Starting Procedures” in “What
To Do In Emergencies”.
