{Warning
Leaving children in a vehicle with a
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter is
dangerous and children or others could
be seriously injured or killed. They could
operate the power windows or other
controls or make the vehicle move. The
windows will function with the RKE
transmitter in the vehicle, and children
or others could be caught in the path of
a closing window. Do not leave children
in a vehicle with an RKE transmitter.

Interior Mirrors
Interior Rearview Mirrors
Adjust the rearview mirror for a clear view
of the area behind your vehicle.
Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the
mirror. Use a soft towel dampened with
water.
Manual Rearview Mirror
If equipped, push the tab forward for
daytime use and pull it rearward for
nighttime use to avoid glare of the
headlamps from behind.

glare of headlamps from behind. The
dimming feature comes on when the vehicle
is started.
Windows{
Warning
Never leave a child, a helpless adult, or a
pet alone in a vehicle, especially with the
windows closed in warm or hot weather.
They can be overcome by the extreme
heat and suffer permanent injuries or
even death from heat stroke.
The vehicle aerodynamics are designed to
improve electric range performance. This
may result in a pulsing sound when either
rear window is down and the front windows
are up. To reduce the sound, open a front
window.
Power Windows
{Warning
Leaving children in a vehicle with the RKE
transmitter is dangerous for many
reasons; children or others could be badly
injured or even killed. They could operate
the power windows or other controls or
even make the vehicle move. The
windows will function with the RKE
transmitter in the vehicle and they could
be seriously injured or killed if caught in
the path of a closing window. Do not
leave the RKE transmitter in a vehicle
with children.
When there are children in the rear seat,
use the window lockout switch to prevent
unintentional operation of the windows.

on. The defogger will turn off if the vehicle
is turned off.
Caution
Do not try to clear frost or other material
from the inside of the front windshield
and rear window with a razor blade or
anything else that is sharp. This may
damage the rear window defogger grid
and affect the radio's ability to pick up
stations clearly. The repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.

Liftxoryto heat the driver or
passenger seat cushion. See Heated Front
Seats 029.
Remote Start Climate Control Operation
If equipped with the remote start feature,
the climate control system may run when
the vehicle is started remotely. The system
uses the driver’s previous settings to heat or
cool the inside of the vehicle. The rear defog
may come on during remote start based on
cold ambient conditions. The rear defog
indicator light does not come on during a
remote start. If equipped, the heated seats will turn on if
it is cold outside. The heated seat indicator
lights may not come on during a remote
start. See
Heated Front Seats 029.
Remote Start : The climate control system
may be started by using the remote key.
The climate control system will default to
an appropriate heating or cooling mode. See
Remote Start 014.
The rear window defogger turns on if it is
cold outside.
Sensors
Indicator Light and Solar Sensor (ILSS)
The ILSS is on top of the instrument panel,
near the windshield, where it monitors solar
intensity.
The climate control system uses the sensor
information to adjust the temperature, fan
speed, recirculation, and air delivery mode
for best comfort.
Do not cover the sensor; otherwise the
automatic climate control system may not
work properly. Humidity Sensor
The humidity sensor is near the base of the
inside rearview mirror. The climate control
system uses the sensor information to
adjust the temperature and recirculation for
best comfort.
Outside Air Temperature Sensor
The outside air temperature sensor is behind
the front grille of the vehicle. The vehicle
uses the sensor information to display
outside air temperature. The climate control
system uses the information to adjust the
climate system operation.
Afterblow Feature
If equipped, under certain conditions, the
fan may stay on or may turn on and off
several times after you turn off and lock the
vehicle. This is normal.
Air Vents
Adjustable air vents are in the center and on
the side of the instrument panel.
