To adjust your mirrors, press the
adjustment control to position the mirrors.
Note:
Moving the mirrors 10 or more times
within one minute, or repeated folding,
unfolding and telescoping of the mirrors
while holding the control down during full
travel, may disable the system to protect
the motors from overheating. Wait
approximately three minutes with the
vehicle running, and up to 10 minutes with
the vehicle off, for the system to reset and
for function to return to normal.
Loose Mirror
If your power-folding mirrors are manually
folded, they may not work properly even
after you re-position them. You need to
reset them if:
• The mirrors vibrate when you drive.
• The mirrors feel loose.
• The mirrors do not stay in the folded or
unfolded position.
• One of the mirrors is not in its normal
driving position.
To reset the power-fold feature, use the
power-folding mirror control to fold and
unfold the mirrors. You may hear a loud
noise as you reset the power-folding
mirrors. This sound is normal. Repeat this
process as needed each time the mirrors
are manually folded.
