MIRRORS
AUTOMATIC DIMMING
MIRROR
This mirror automatically adjusts for
headlight glare from vehicles behind
you.
NOTE:
This feature is disabled when the
vehicle is moving in reverse.CAUTION!
To avoid damage to the mirror dur-
ing cleaning, never spray any clean-
ing solution directly onto the mirror.
Apply the solution onto a clean cloth
and wipe the mirror clean.OUTSIDE MIRRORS
To receive maximum benefit, adjust
the outside mirror(s) 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.
OUTSIDE MIRRORS
FOLDING FEATURE
Vehicles are equipped with mirrors
that are hinged. The hinge allows the
mirror to pivot forward and rearward to resist damage. The hinge has three
detent positions: full forward, full
rearward and normal.
DRIVER'S AUTOMATIC
DIMMING MIRROR (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The driver’s outside mirror will auto-
matically adjust for glare from ve-
hicles behind you. This feature is con-
trolled by the inside automatic
dimming mirror and can be turned on
or off by pressing the button at the
base of the inside mirror. The mirror
will automatically adjust for head-
light glare when the inside mirror ad-
justs.
OUTSIDE MIRRORS WITH
TURN SIGNAL AND
APPROACH LIGHTING (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
Driver and passenger outside mirrors
with turn signals located within the
mirror housing and approach lighting
located within mirror glass contain
five LEDs.
Automatic Dimming Mirror
63

Three of the LEDs are turn signal
indicators, which flash with the corre-
sponding turn signal lights in the
front and rear of the vehicle. Turning
on the Hazard Warning flashers will
also activate these LEDs.
The other two LEDs supply illumi-
nated entry lighting, which turns on
in both mirrors when you use the Re-
mote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmit-
ter or open any door. These LEDs
shine outward to illuminate the front
and rear door handles. They also
shine downward to illuminate the
area in front of the doors.
The Illuminated Entry lighting fades
to off after about 30 seconds or it will
fade to off immediately once the igni-
tion is placed into the RUN position.
NOTE:
The approach lighting will not
function when the shift lever is
moved out of the PARK position.TILT MIRRORS IN
REVERSE (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
Tilt Mirrors in Reverse provides auto-
matic outside mirror positioning
which will aid the driver’s view of the
ground rearward of the front doors.
The outside mirrors will move slightly
downward from the present position
when the vehicle is shifted into RE-
VERSE. The outside mirrors will then
return to the original position when
the vehicle is shifted out of the RE-
VERSE position. Each stored
memory setting will have an associ-
ated Tilt Mirrors in Reverse position.
NOTE:
The Tilt Mirrors in Reverse feature
can be turned on and off using the
Uconnect Touch™ System, refer to
“Uconnect Touch™ Settings” in
“Understanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.POWER MIRRORS
The power mirror controls are located
on the driver's door trim panel.
The power mirror controls consist of
mirror select buttons and a four-way
mirror control switch. To adjust a mir-
ror, press either the L (left) or R
(right) button to select the mirror that
you want to adjust.
NOTE:
A light in the select button will
illuminate indicating the mirror is
activated and can be adjusted.
Using the mirror control switch, press
on any of the four arrows for the di-
rection that you want the mirror to
move.
Power Mirror Control
64

Power mirror preselected positions
can be controlled by the optional
Memory Seat Feature. Refer to
“Driver Memory Seat” in “Under-
standing The Features Of Your Ve-
hicle” for further information.
POWER FOLDING
OUTSIDE MIRRORS (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The switch for the power folding mir-
rors is located between the power mir-
ror switches L (left) and R (right).
Press the switch once and the mirrors
will fold in, pressing the switch a sec-
ond time will return the mirrors to the
normal driving position.
If the mirrors are in the folded posi-
tion, and vehicle speed is equal or
greater than 16 km/h, they will auto-
matically unfold.HEATED MIRRORS (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
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.
ILLUMINATED VANITY
MIRRORS (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
An illuminated vanity mirror is lo-
cated on the sun visor. To use the
mirror, rotate the sun visor downward
and swing the mirror cover upward.
The light turns on automatically.
Closing the mirror cover turns off the
light. “SLIDE-ON-ROD” AND
EXTENDER FEATURES OF
SUN VISOR
To use the “Slide-On-Rod” feature of
the sun visor, rotate the sun visor
downward and swing the sun visor so
it is parallel to the side window, grab-
bing the sun visor with your left hand
pull rearwards until the sun visor is in
the desired position. To use the ex-
tender feature of the sun visor, grab
the extender which is located at the
rear of the visor and pull rearward.
Slide-On-Rod Feature

BLIND SPOT
MONITORING (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
system uses two radar-based sensors,
located inside the rear bumper fascia,
to detect highway licensable vehicles
(automobiles, trucks, motorcycles,
etc.) that enter the blind spot zones
from the rear/front/side of the ve-
hicle.
When the vehicle is started, the BSM
warning light will momentarily illu-
minate in both outside rear view mir-
rors to let the driver know that the
system is operational. The BSM sys-
tem sensors operate when the vehicleis in any forward gear or REVERSE
and enters stand by mode when the
vehicle is in PARK.
The BSM detection zone covers ap-
proximately one lane on both sides of
the vehicle 3.35 m. The zone starts at
the outside rear view mirror and ex-
tends approximately 6 m to the rear of
the vehicle. The BSM system monitors
the detection zones on both sides of
the vehicle when the vehicle speed
reaches approximately 10 km/h or
higher and will alert the driver of ve-
hicles in these areas.
NOTE:
 The BSM system does NOT alert
the driver about rapidly ap- proaching vehicles that are out-
side the detection zones.
 The BSM system detection zone DOES NOT change if your ve-
hicle is towing a trailer. There-
fore, visually verify the adjacent
lane is clear for both your ve-
hicle and trailer before making
a lane change. If the trailer or
other object (i.e., bicycle, sports
equipment) extends beyond the
side of your vehicle, this may re-
sult in the BSM warning light
remaining illuminated the en-
tire time the vehicle is in a for-
ward gear.
The area on the rear fascia where the
radar sensors are located must remain
free of snow, ice, and dirt/road con-
tamination so that the BSM system
can function properly. Do not block
the area of the rear fascia where the
radar sensors are located with foreign
objects (bumper stickers, bicycle
racks, etc.).
