Automatic Dimming Mirror Operation
The time period you need to press and hold
the TEMP button to turn the automatic dimming
feature on or off is approximately eight seconds.
The indicator light to the left of the TEMP
button will still turn on or off to show you when the
automatic dimming feature is activated. Once
the mirror is turned off, it will remain off until it is
turned back on, or until the vehicle is restarted.
Compass Operation
Press the COMP button once briey to turn the
compass on or off.
When the ignition and the compass feature are
on, the compass will show two character boxes for
approximately two seconds. After two seconds,
the mirror will display the compass heading.
Compass Calibration
The compass may need calibration if one of the
following occurs:
If CAL is displayed while driving in the vehicle.
After approximately ve seconds, the display
does not show a compass heading (N for
North, for example), there may be a strong
magnetic eld interfering with the compass.
Such interference may be caused by a
magnetic antenna mount, magnetic note pad
holder or a similar magnetic item.
The compass does not display the correct
heading and the compass zone variance
is set correctly.
In order to calibrate, CAL must be displayed in the
mirror compass windows. If CAL is not displayed,
push in the COMP button for approximately
eight seconds or until CAL is displayed.
The compass can be calibrated by driving the
vehicle in circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less until the
display reads a direction.
181

Compass Variance
The mirror is set in zone eight upon leaving the
factory. It will be necessary to adjust the compass
to compensate for compass variance if you live
outside zone eight. Under certain circumstances,
as during a long distance cross-country trip, it
will be necessary to adjust for compass variance.
Compass variance is the difference between
earth’s magnetic north and true geographic north.
If not adjusted to account for compass variance,
your compass could give false readings.
To adjust for compass variance:
1. Find your current location and variance zone
number on the following zone map.
2. Press and hold the COMP button for ve
seconds until a zone number appears in
the display.3. Press the COMP button on the bottom of the
mirror until the new zone number appears in
the display. After you stop pressing the
button, the display will show a compass
direction within a few seconds.

Passenger Airbag Indicator
The mirror may be equipped with a passenger
airbag indicator on the mirror glass, just above the
buttons. If the vehicle has this feature the mirror
will display the word ON, or an airbag symbol
in Canada, when the passenger airbag is enabled.
For more information seePassenger Sensing
System on page 103
Cleaning the Mirror
When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or
similar material dampened with glass cleaner.
Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the mirror
as that may cause the liquid cleaner to enter
the mirror housing.
Outside Manual Mirrors
Adjust your outside mirrors so you can just see
the side of your vehicle and have a clear view of
objects behind you. The mirrors can be folded
in to enter narrow areas.
The use of hood-mounted air deectors and
add-on convex mirror attachments may adversely
affect mirror performance.
Outside Trailer-Tow Mirrors
If your vehicle is equipped with this style
trailering-type mirror, they can be adjusted so you
can have a clear view of the objects behind you.
Pull out the mirror head to extend it for better
visibility when towing a trailer.

the vehicle. The light on the recirculation button
will go off.
Pressing this button also cancels the auto
recirculation feature. To resume the auto
recirculation function, press the AUTO button.
Each time the vehicle is started, the system will
revert to the auto recirculation function.
238

If you select recirculation while in defrost, defog,
or oor, the light in the button will ash and then go
out to let you know that this is not allowed. This
is normal and helps to prevent fogging.
When the weather is cool or damp, operating the
system in recirculation for extended periods of
time may cause fogging of the vehicle’s windows.
To clear the fog, select either defog or front
defrost.
You may also notice that the air condition
compressor will run while in recirculation mode.
This is normal and helps to prevent fogging.
9(Off):Press this button to turn off the entire
climate control system. Outside air will still
enter the vehicle, and will be directed to the oor.

Air Conditioning
#
(Air Conditioning):Press this button to turn
the air conditioning (A/C) compressor on and
off. The snowake symbol will appear on
the display when the A/C is on and will turn off
when the air conditioning is off.
Pressing this button when the outside temperature
is too cool for air conditioning will make the
snowake symbol ash three times and then turn
off to let you know the air conditioning mode is
not available. If the air conditioning is on and the
outside temperature drops below a temperature
which is too cool for air conditioning to be effective,
the snowake symbol will turn off to let you
know the air conditioning mode has been
canceled.
When air conditioning is selected or in AUTO
mode, the system will run the air conditioning
automatically to cool and dehumidify the air
entering the vehicle. If you select A/C off while in
front defrost, defog or recirculation, the A/C
snowake symbol will turn off, but the A/C
compressor will still run to help prevent fogging.On hot days, open the windows long enough to let
hot inside air escape. This reduces the time it
takes for your vehicle to cool down. Then
keep your windows closed for the air conditioner
to work its best.
On cool, but sunny days while using manual
operation of the automatic system, use bi-level to
deliver warm air to the oor and cooler air to
the instrument panel outlets. To warm or cool the
air delivered, turn the temperature knob to the
desired setting.
In AUTO mode the system will cool and dehumidify
the air inside the vehicle. Also while in AUTO
mode, the system will maximize its performance
by using recirculation as necessary.
