(if equipped)
The electric rearview mirror automat-
ically controls the glare from the
headlights of the vehicles behind you
in nighttime or low light driving condi-
tions. The sensor mounted in the mir-
ror senses the light level around the
vehicle, and automatically controls
the headlight glare from the vehicles
behind you.
When the engine is running, the
glare is automatically controlled by
the sensor mounted in the rearview
mirror.
Whenever the shift lever is shifted
into reverse (R), the mirror will auto-
matically go to the brightest setting in
order to improve the drivers view
behind the vehicle.

To adjust the Zone setting:
1. Determine the desired Zone
Number based upon your current
location on the Zone Map.
2. Press and hold the button for more than 3 but less than 6 sec-
onds, the current Zone Number
will appear on the display.
3. Pressing and holding the button again will cause the numbers to

There are some conditions that can
cause changes to the vehicle mag-
nets, such as installing a ski rack or a
CB antenna. Body repair work on the
vehicle can also cause changes to the
vehicle's magnetic field. In these situa-
tions, the compass will need to be re-
calibrated to quickly correct for these
changes. To re-calibrate the compass: 1. Press and hold the button for
more than 6 seconds. When the
compass memory is cleared a "C"
will appear in the display.
2. To calibrate the compass, drive the vehicle in 2 complete circles at

Integrated HomeLink
®Wireless
Control System
The HomeLink
®Wireless Control
System provides a convenient way to
replace up to three hand-held radio-
frequency (RF) transmitters with a
single built-in device. This innovative
feature will learn the radio frequency
codes of most current transmitters to
operate devices such as gate opera-
tors, garage door openers, entry
door locks, security systems, even
home lighting. Both standard and
rolling code-equipped transmitters
can be programmed by following the
outlined procedures. Additional
HomeLink
®information can be found
at: www.homelink.com or by calling
1-800-355-3515.
WARNING
Before programming
HomeLink®to a garage door
opener or gate operator, make
sure that people and objects are
out of the way of the device to
prevent potential harm or dam-
age. Do not use HomeLink
® with
any garage door opener that
lacks the safety stop and
reverse features required by
U.S. federal safety standards
(this includes any garage door
opener model manufactured
before April 1, 1982). A garage
door that cannot detect an
object - signaling the door to
stop and reverse - does not
meet current U.S. federal safety
standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features
increases the risk of serious
injury or death.

®buttons be erased for
security purposes. Programming HomeLink

NOTICE
• When programming a garage
door opener, it is advised to park
the vehicle outside of the garage.
• It is recommended that a new bat- tery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being pro-
grammed to HomeLink
®for quick-
er training and accurate transaxle
of the radio-frequency signal.
• Some vehicles may require the ignition switch to be turned to the
second (or "accessories") position
for programming and/or opera-
tion of HomeLink
®.
• In the event that there are still pro- gramming difficulties or questions
after following the programming
steps listed below, contact
