Convex Mirrors
{Warning
A convex mirror can make things,
like other vehicles, look farther
away than they really are. If you
cut too sharply into the right lane,
you could hit a vehicle on the
right. Check the inside mirror or
glance over your shoulder before
changing lanes.
The passenger side mirror is convex
shaped. A convex mirror's surface is
curved so more can be seen from
the driver seat.
Power Mirrors
Controls for the outside power
mirrors are on the driver door.
To adjust a mirror: 1. Move the selector switch to L (Left) or R (Right) to choose
the driver or passenger mirror.
2. Press the arrows on the control pad to move each mirror in the
desired direction.
3. Return the selector switch to the center position.

Windows
{Warning
Never leave a child, a helpless

They can be overcome by the
extreme heat and suffer
permanent injuries or even death
from heat stroke.
Power Windows
{Warning
Leaving children in a vehicle with
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter is dangerous for many
reasons; children or others could
be badly injured or even killed.
They could operate the power
windows or other controls or even
make the vehicle move. The
windows will function with the
RKE transmitter in the vehicle
and they could be seriously
injured or killed if caught in the
path of a closing window. Do not
leave the RKE transmitter in a
vehicle with children.
The power window switches are on
the driver door. The passenger door
also has a window switch for only
that window.
Press the switch to open the
window. Pull the switch to close it.
The power windows work when the
vehicle is on, or when Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) is active.
SeeRetained Accessory Power
(RAP) 0185.
Express-Down/Up Windows
Windows with an express-down or
up feature allow the window to be
lowered or raised without holding
the switch.
