Power Folding Mirror Switch
Resetting The Power Folding Outside Mirrors
You may need to reset the power folding mirrors if the
following occurs:
• The mirrors are accidentally blocked while folding.
• The mirrors are accidentally manually folded/unfolded.
• The mirrors come out of the unfolded position.
• The mirrors shake and vibrate at normal driving speeds. To Reset The Power Folding Mirrors:
1. Using the power folding mirror switch, move the mirror
to its normal driving (home) position.
2. Using the power folding mirror switch, move the mirror to the full retract position (this may require multiple
button pushes). This resets them to their normal position.
NOTE:
• The power fold mirrors are designed to operate while the vehicle is stationary or traveling at moderate speeds. If you
attempt to power fold the mirrors at high speeds they may
not fully open or close. You should slow down to a
moderate speed and complete the operation.
• When pushing the power fold button 10 or more times in one minute the system shuts down for one minute to
protect the motors from over heating.

limit, as will most power tools.Center Console Power Inverter Outlet There is also a second 115 Volt (400 Watts Maximum) power
inverter located on the rear of the center console. This
inverter can power cellular phones, electronics and other low
power devices requiring power up to 400 Watts. Certain
high-end video game consoles exceed this power limit, as
will most power tools.
