OUTSIDE MIRRORS
WARNING
∙ Do not adjust the mirrors while driv-ing. You could lose control of your ve-
hicle and cause an accident.
∙ Objects viewed in the outside mirror on the passenger side are closer than
they appear. Be careful when moving
to the right. Using only this mirror
could cause an accident. Use the in-
side mirror or glance over your shoul-
der to properly judge distances to
other objects. The outside mirror remote control only op-
erates when the ignition switch is placed in
the ACC or ON position.
Move the small switch
1to select the right
or lef t mirror. Adjust each mirror to the de-
sired position using the large switch
2.
Move the small switch
1to the center
(neutral) position to prevent accidentally
moving the mirror.
Manual folding outside mirrors
Pull the outside mirror toward the door to
fold it.
Heated mirrors (if so equipped)
Some outside mirrors can be heated to
defrost, defog, or de-ice for improved vis-
ibility. For additional information, refer to
“Rear window and outside mirror (if so
equipped) defroster switch” in the “Instru-
ments and controls” section of this manual.

Operating tips
∙ Keep the windows closed while the airconditioner is in operation.
∙ Af ter parking in the sun, drive for 2 or 3 minutes with the windows open to
vent hot air from the passenger com-
partment. Then, close the windows.
This allows the air conditioner to cool
the interior more quickly.
∙ The air conditioning system should be operated for approximately 10 minutes
at least once a month. This helps pre-
vent damage to the system due to lack
of lubrication.
∙ A visible mist may be seen coming from the ventilators in hot, humid conditions
as the air is cooled rapidly. This does not
indicate a malfunction.
∙ If the engine coolant temperature gauge indicates engine coolant tem-
perature over the normal range, turn
the air conditioner off. For additional in-
formation, refer to “If your vehicle over-
heats” in the “In case of emergency”
section of this manual. ∙ When Remote Engine Start (if so
equipped) is activated, the manual cli-
mate control system will default to the
last used heating or cooling mode.
AIR FLOW CHARTS
The following charts show the button and
dial positions for MAXIMUM AND QUICK

ignition switch to the OFF position.
NOTE:
Care should be taken to avoid situations
that can lead to potential battery dis-
charge and potential no-start conditions
such as: 1. Installation or extended use of elec-
tronic accessories that consume bat-
tery power when the engine is not
running (phone chargers, GPS, DVD
players, etc.).
2. The vehicle is not driven regularly
and/or only driven short distances.
In these cases, the battery may need to
be charged to maintain battery health.
REMOTE ENGINE START
Vehicles started with the Remote Engine
Start require the ignition switch to be
placed in the ON position before the shif t
lever can be moved from the P (Park) posi-
tion. To place the ignition switch in the ON
position, follow these steps: 1. Make sure that the Intelligent Key is on you. 2. Apply the brake.
3. Push the ignition switch once to the ON
