2. Open the driver's door within 2 minutes. The driver's seat and door mirrors will automati- cally move to the position in which you left them(if the vehicle has been unlocked with one of theother keys and new seat/mirror adjustments havebeen made).
NOTE
• The seat will move to this position even if someone else has moved it to a different position and locked the vehicle with a
dif-
ferent remote key.
• This feature will work in the same way with all of the remote keys that you usewith your vehicle.

Rain sensor*
The rain sensor automatically regulates wiper speed according to the amount of water on thewindshield.
The sensitivity of the rain sensor can be adjusted moving the thumb wheel up (the wipers willsweep the windshield more frequently) or down(the wipers will sweep the windshield less fre-quently).
NOTE
The wipers will make an extra sweep each time the thumb wheel is adjusted upward.
When the rain sensor is activated, the symbol
will illuminate in the instrument panel.
Activating and setting the sensitivity
When activating the rain sensor, the vehicle must be running or in ignition mode II and the wind-
shield wiper lever must be in position 0 or in the
single sweep position. Activate the rain sensor by pressing the button
. The windshield wipers will make one
sweep. Press the lever up for the wipers to make an extra sweep. The rain sensor returns to activemode when the stalk is released back to position 0 .
Deactivating
Deactivate the rain sensor by pressing the button
or press the lever down to another wiper
position. The rain sensor is automatically deactivated when the key is removed from the ignition slot or fiveminutes after the ignition has been switched off.
CAUTION
The rain sensor should be deactivated when washing the car in an automatic car wash, etc.If the rain sensor function is left on, the wip-ers will start inadvertently in the car wash andcould be damaged.
Windshield washer
Move the lever toward the steering wheel to start the windshield and headlight washers. After thelever is released the wipers make several extrasweeps.
Washing function
Heated washer nozzles *The washer nozzles are heated automatically in cold weather to help prevent the washer fluidfrom freezing.
High-pressure headlight washing *High-pressure headlight washing consumes alarge quantity of washer fluid. To save fluid, theheadlights are washed using two alternatives:
• Low/high beam headlights on.
The head-
lights will be washed the first time the wind-shield is washed. Thereafter, the headlightswill only be washed once for every five times

Digital compass*
The rear-view mirror has an integrated display that shows the compass direction in which thevehicle is traveling.
Operation
Rearview mirror with compass.
Eight different directions are shown with the abbreviations: N (north), NE (north east), E (east),SE (southeast), S (south), SW (southwest), W(west) and NW (northwest).
The compass is displayed automatically when the vehicle is started or in ignition mode II. To switch
the compass on/off use a pen, paperclip or simi- lar object and press in the button on the under-side of the mirror.
CalibrationNorth America is divided into 15 magnetic zonesand the compass will need to be calibrated if thevehicle is driven into a new one (see the mag-netic zones on the map in the following section"Selecting a magnetic zone"). To do so:
1. Stop the vehicle in a large open area, safely out of traffic and away from steel structures and high-tension electrical wires.
2. Start the vehicle.
NOTE
• For best calibration results, switch off all electrical equipment in the vehicle (climatesystem, windshield wipers, audio system,etc.) and make sure that all doors areclosed.
• Calibration may not succeed or be incor-rect if the vehicle's electrical equipment isnot switched off.
3. Using a pen, paperclip or similar object, press
and hold the button on the underside of mir- ror for approx. 6 seconds until
C is displayed
in the mirror.
4. Press and hold the button for 3 seconds until the number of the current magnetic zone is displayed. 5. Press the button repeatedly until the number
of the desired magnetic zone (
1-15) is dis-
played. See the magnetic zones on the map in the following section "Selecting a mag-netic zone").
6. Wait until
C is again displayed in the mirror.
7. Drive slowly in a circle at a speed of no more than 6 mph (10 km/h) until a direction is dis- played. This indicates that calibration is com-plete.
8. Drive around in a circle an additional two times to fine-tune the calibration.
9. Vehicles with an electrically heated wind- shield: * if
C is displayed when the heating
function is activated, perform step 7 with the heating function on. See also Max. defroster and electrically heated windshield * (p. 133)
for additional information about the heated windshield.
Repeat the calibration procedure if necessary.
21 The auto-dim function is also available as an option on the door mirrors.
