! Windshield washer
To wash the windshield, pull the wiper
control lever toward you. The washer fluid
sprays until you release the lever. The
wipers operate while you pull the lever. NOTE
The windshield washer fluid warning
indicator appears when the washer
fluid level in the tank has dropped to
the lower limit. If the warning indicator
appears, refill the tank with fluid. For
the refilling procedure, refer to “ Wind-
shield washer fluid ” F 11-38.Mirrors Always check that the inside and outside
mirrors are properly adjusted before you
start driving.
& Inside mirror
The inside mirror has a day and night
position. Pull the tab at the bottom of the
mirror toward you for the night position.
Push it away for the day position. The
night position reduces glare from head-

1) LED
2) Switch
3) Sensor
4) Compass display
The auto-dimming mirror has an anti-glare
feature which automatically reduces glare
coming from headlights of vehicles behind
you. It also contains a built-in compass.
. By pressing and holding the switch for
1 second, the automatic dimming function
is toggled on or off. When the automatic
dimming function is on, the LED indicator
will illuminate.
Even with the mirror in anti-glare mode,
the mirror surface turns bright if the
transmission is shifted into reverse. This is to ensure good rearward visibility during
reversing.
. By pressing and releasing the switch
for less than 6 seconds, the compass
display is toggled on or off. When the
compass is on, an illuminated compass
reading will appear in the upper right
corner of the mirror.
When cleaning the mirror, use a paper
towel or similar material dampened with
glass cleaner. Do not spray glass cleaner
directly on the mirror as that may cause
the liquid cleaner to enter the mirror
housing and damage the mirror.
! Photosensors
The mirror has a photosensor attached on
the front and back sides. During nighttime
driving, these sensors detect distracting glare from vehicle headlights behind you
and automatically dim the mirror to elim-
inate glare and preserve your vision. For
this reason, use care not to cover the
sensors with stickers, or other similar
items. Periodically wipe the sensors clean
using a piece of dry soft cotton cloth or an
applicator.

window, the compass needs to be cali-
brated.
2. Drive the vehicle in a circle at 5 mph (8
km/h) or less until the display reads a
direction.
3. You can also calibrate the compass by
driving your vehicle on your everyday
routine. The compass will be calibrated

WARNING
. When programming the
HomeLink ®
Wireless Control Sys-
tem, you may be operating a
garage door opener or other
device. Make sure that people
and objects are out of the way
ofthegaragedoororother
device to prevent potential harm
or damage.
. Do not use the HomeLink ®
Wire-
less Control System with a gar- age door opener that lacks the
safety stop and reverse feature
as required by applicable safety
standards. A garage door opener
which cannot detect an object,
signaling the door to stop and
reverse, does not meet these
safety standards. Using a garage
door opener without these fea-
tures increases risk of serious
injury or death. For more infor-
mation, consult the HomeLink ®
website at www.homelink.com or
call 1-800-355-3515.
CAUTIONWhen programming the HomeLink ®
Wireless Control System to operate
a garage door opener or an entrance
gate, unplug the device ’ s motor
from the outlet during programming
to prevent motor burnout.
NOTE . After programming your HomeLink ®
Wireless Control System for the de-
sired devices, retain the hand-held
transmitters for further programming
or device testing in the event of a
problem. Instruments and controls/Mirrors

programming.
! Garage door opener program-
ming in the U.S.A.
NOTE When programming the HomeLink ®
Wireless Control System for a garage
door opener, it is suggested that you
park the vehicle outside the garage.
1. Unplug the motor of the garage door
opener from the outlet.
NOTE If any of the HomeLink ®
buttons are
already programmed for other devices,
skip step 2 because it clears the
memory of all three buttons. 1) HomeLink ®
button 1
2) HomeLink ®
button 2
3) HomeLink ®
button 3
2. Press and hold the two outer
HomeLink ®
buttons (button 1 and button
3) until the indicator light begins to flash
(after approximately 20 seconds). Then
release both buttons.
3. Hold the end of the garage door
opener ’ s hand-held transmitter between
1 and 3 inches (25 and 76 mm) away from
the HomeLink ®
button you wish to pro-
gram.
4. Simultaneously press and hold both
the hand-held transmitter button and the
desired HomeLink ®
button. DO NOT re-
lease the buttons until step 5 has been
completed. NOTE Some gate operators and garage door
openers may require you to replace
this programming step 4 with proce-
dures in “ Programming for entrance
gates and garage door openers in
Canada ” F 3-109.
5. Hold down both buttons until the
HomeLink ®
indicator light flashes, first
slowly then rapidly. When the indicator
light flashes rapidly, both buttons may be
released. (The rapidly flashing light indi-
cates successful programming of the new
frequency signal.)
6. Press and hold the programmed but-
ton and check the HomeLink ®
indicator
light. If the indicator light stays on con-
tinuously, your garage door should acti-
vate and the programming is completed.

seconds and then stays on continuously,
your garage door opener may be pro-
tected by a rolling code feature. In this
case you need to perform the additional
steps that are described in “ Programming
rolling-code-protected garage door open-
ers in the U.S.A. ” F 3-109.3-108
