memory seat only), (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
Tilt Mirrors in Reverse provides auto-
matic outside mirror positioning
which will aid the drivers view of the
ground rearward of the front doors.
The driver's outside mirror will move
slightly downward from the present
position when the vehicle is shifted
into REVERSE. The driver's outside
mirror will then return to the original
position when the vehicle is shifted
out of REVERSE position. Each
stored memory setting will have an
associated Tilt Mirrors in Reverse po-
sition.
NOTE:
The Tilt Mirrors in Reverse feature
is not enabled when delivered
from the factory. The Tilt Mirrors
in Reverse feature can be enabled
or disabled in the Electronic Ve-
hicle Information Center (EVIC).Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Infor-
mation Center (EVIC)/Customer-
Programmable Features” in “Un-
derstanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.

The BSM system monitors the detec-
tion zone from three different entry
points (side, rear, front) while driving
to see if an alert is necessary. The BSM
system will issue an alert during these
types of zone entries.
Entering From The Side
Vehicles that move into your adjacent
lanes from either side of the vehicle.Entering From The Rear
Vehicles that come up from behind
your vehicle on either side and enter
the rear detection zone with a relative
speed of less than 48 km/h.
Overtaking Traffic
If you pass another vehicle slowly
with a relative speed of less than
16 km/h and the vehicle remains in
the blind spot for approximately
1.5 seconds, the warning light will be
illuminated. If the difference in speed
between the two vehicles is greater
than 16 km/h, the warning light will
not illuminate.

WARNING!
RCP is not a Back Up Aid system. It
is intended to be used to help a
driver detect an oncoming vehicle in
a parking lot situation. Drivers must
be careful when backing up, even
when using RCP. Always check care-
fully behind your vehicle, look be-
hind you, and be sure to check for
pedestrians, animals, other vehicles,
obstructions, and blind spots before
backing up. Failure to do so can
result in serious injury or death.
MODES OF OPERATION
Three selectable modes of operation
are available in the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC). Refer to
"Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC)/Personal Settings
(Customer-Programmable Fea-
tures)” in “Understanding Your In-
strument Panel” for further informa-
tion. Blind Spot Alert
When operating in Blind Spot Alert
mode, the BSM system will provide a
visual alert in the appropriate side
view mirror based on a detected ob-
ject. However, when the system is op-
erating in RCP, the system will re-
spond with both visual and audible
alerts when a detected object is pres-
ent. Whenever an audible alert is re-
quested, the radio is muted.
Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime
When operating in Blind Spot Alert
Lights/Chime mode, the BSM system
will provide a visual alert in the ap-
propriate side view mirror based on a
detected object. If the turn signal is
then activated, and it corresponds to
an alert present on that side of the
vehicle, an audible chime will also be
sounded. Whenever a turn signal and
detected object are present on the
same side at the same time, both the
visual and audio alerts will be issued.
In addition to the audible alert the
radio (if on) will also be muted.NOTE:
Whenever an audible alert is re-
quested by the BSM system, the
radio is also muted.
If the hazard flashers are on, the system will request the appro-
priate visual alert only.
When the system is in RCP, the
system shall respond with both vi-
sual and audible alerts when a de-
tected object is present. Whenever
an audible alert is requested, the
radio is also muted. Turn/hazard
signal status is ignored; the RCP
state always requests the chime.
Blind Spot Alert Off
When the BSM system is turned off
there will be no visual or audible
alerts from either the BSM or RCP
systems.
NOTE:
The BSM system will store the cur-
rent operating mode when the ve-
hicle is shut off. Each time the ve-
hicle is started the previously
stored mode will be recalled and
used.

POWER LUMBAR (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
Vehicles equipped with power driver
or passenger seats may be also be
equipped with power lumbar. The
power lumbar switch is located on the
outboard side of the power seat. Push
the switch forward to increase the
lumbar support. Push the switch rear-
ward to decrease the lumbar support.
HEATED SEATS (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
On some models, the front and rear
seats may be equipped with heaters in
both the seat cushions and seatbacks.
WARNING!
Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of ad-
vanced age, chronic illness, diabe-
tes, spinal cord injury, medica-
tion, alcohol use, exhaustion or
other physical condition must ex-
ercise care when using the seat
heater. It may cause burns even at
low temperatures, especially if
used for long periods of time.
Do not place anything on the seat
that insulates against heat, such
as a blanket or cushion. This may
cause the seat heater to overheat.
Sitting in a seat that has been
overheated could cause serious
burns due to the increased surface
temperature of the seat.
Front Heated Seats
There are two heated seat switches
that allow the driver and passenger to
operate the seats independently. The
controls for each heater are located on
the switch bank below the climate
controls.
You can choose from HIGH, LOW or
OFF heat settings. Amber indicator lights in each switch indicate the level
of heat in use. Two indicator lights
will illuminate for HIGH, one for
LOW and none for OFF.
Press the switch once to se-
lect HIGH-level heating.
Press the switch a second
time to select LOW-level
heating. Press the switch a third time
to shut the heating elements OFF.
NOTE:
Once a heat setting is selected, heat
will be felt within two to five min-
utes.
When the HIGH-level setting is se-
lected, the heater will provide a
boosted heat level during the initial
stages of operation. Then, the heat
output will drop to the normal HIGH-
level. If the HIGH-level setting is se-
lected, the system will automatically
switch to LOW-level after a maximum
of 60 minutes of continuous opera-
tion. At that time, the number of illu-
minated LEDs changes from two to
one, indicating the change. The LOW-
level setting will turn OFF automati-
cally after a maximum of 45 minutes.
