WARNING!(Continued)
If required, mounting posts must be
properly installed, if not equipped
from the factory.Failure to properly follow floor mat
installation or mounting can cause
interference with the brake pedal
and accelerator pedal operation
causing loss of control of the vehicle.Periodic Safety Checks You
Should Make Outside The
Vehicle
TiresExamine tires for excessive tread wear
and uneven wear patterns. Check for
stones, nails, glass, or other objects
lodged in the tread or sidewall. Inspect
the tread for cuts and cracks. Inspect
sidewalls for cuts, cracks and bulges.
Check the wheel nuts for tightness.
Check the tires (including spare) for
proper cold inflation pressure.
Lights
Have someone observe the operation
of brake lights and exterior lights
while you work the controls. Check
turn signal and high beam indicator
lights on the instrument panel.
Door Latches
Check for positive closing, latching,
and locking.
Fluid Leaks
Check area under vehicle after over-
night parking for fuel, engine coolant,
oil, or other fluid leaks. Also, if gaso-
line fumes are detected or if fuel,
power steering fluid (2500/3500), or
brake fluid leaks are suspected, the
cause should be located and corrected
immediately.

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 re-
verse.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 con-
vex 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 con-
vex mirror could cause you to col-
lide 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
This feature is controlled by the inside
automatic dimming mirror and will
automatically adjust for headlight
glare when the inside mirror adjusts.
NOTE: This feature is also avail-
able on the passenger's side when
equipped with turn signal and
approach lighting.

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.
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 Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter or
open any door. These LEDs shine out-
ward to illuminate the front and rear
door handles. They also shine down-
ward to illuminate the area in front of
the doors.The Illuminated Entry lighting fades
to off after about 30 seconds or it willfade 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 out-
side mirrors will move slightly down-
ward from the present position when
the vehicle is shifted into REVERSE.
The outside mirrors will then return to
the original position when the vehicle is
shifted out of the REVERSE position.
Each stored memory setting will have
an associated Tilt Mirrors in Reverse
position.NOTE:
 The Tilt Mirrors in Reverse fea- ture is not turned on when deliv-
ered from the factory. The Tilt
Mirrors in Reverse feature can
be turned on and off using the
Uconnect Touch™ System.  Refer to “Uconnect Touch™ Set-
tings” 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 mir-
ror is activated and can be adjusted.Power Mirror Control
68

Using the mirror control switch, press
on any of the four arrows for the direc-
tion that you want the mirror to move.
Power mirror preselected positions can
be controlled by the optional Memory
Seat Feature. Refer to “Driver Memory
Seat” in “Understanding The Features
Of Your Vehicle” for further informa-
tion.POWER FOLDING
OUTSIDE MIRRORS
The switch for the power folding
mirrors is located between the power
mirror 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.
NOTE: If the vehicle speed is
greater than 16 km/h the folding
feature will be disabled.
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
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
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

BLIND SPOT
MONITORING
(for versions/markets,
where provided)The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) sys-
tem 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 vehicle.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. The zone starts at the
outside rear view mirror and extends
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
vehicles 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 vehicle
is towing a trailer. Therefore,
visually verify the adjacent lane
is clear for both your vehicle and
trailer before making a lane
change. If the trailer or other
object (i.e., bicycle, sports equip-
ment) extends beyond the side of
your vehicle, this may result in
the BSM warning light remaining
illuminated the entire time the
vehicle is in a forward 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.).
