to choose the mirror you want to adjust; then
press the dots located on the four-way control pad

Resetting the Power Foldaway Mirrors
You will need to reset the power foldaway mirrors
if the following occurs:
They are accidentally manually folded/
unfolded.
The mirrors will not stay in the unfolded
position.
The mirrors shake and utter at normal driving
speeds.
To reset the power foldaway mirrors, fold and
unfold them at least three times using the mirror
controls. This will reset them to their normal
position.
Outside Automatic Dimming Mirror
If your vehicle is equipped with this feature,
the driver’s outside mirror will adjust for the glare
of headlamps behind you. This feature is
controlled by the on and off settings found on the
electrochromic inside mirror.
Outside Curb View Assist Mirrors
If the vehicle has the memory package, the outside
mirrors are able to perform the curb view assist
mirror function. This feature will cause the
passenger’s and/or driver’s mirror to tilt to a
preselected position when the vehicle is in
REVERSE (R). This feature may be useful in
allowing the driver to view the curb when parallel
parking. When the vehicle is shifted out of
REVERSE (R) and a short delay has occurred,
the passenger’s and/or driver’s mirror will return to
its original position.
To change the preselected tilt position, adjust the
mirrors to the desired position while the vehicle
is in REVERSE (R). When the vehicle is shifted
out of REVERSE (R), this new position is saved in
memory as the tilt position.
This feature can be turned on or off through the
Driver Information Center (DIC). SeeDriver
Information Center (DIC) on page 265for more
information.

console. Press the
rear of the control to
open the sunroof to the
vent position, then
press the rear of the
control again to

To close the sunroof, press and hold the front of
the control. The control must be held until the
glass stops moving, so that the sunroof will be fully
seated.The sunroof also has a roller sunscreen that can
be used to block the rays of the sun. The roller
sunscreen can be manually operated with
the sunroof in an open or closed position. To open
the sunscreen, press up to unlatch it and roll it
back. To close, pull it forward and latch it to
the close position.
If the battery has been recharged, disconnected,
or not working, the sunroof may need to be
reprogrammed. To do this, start the vehicle and
press forward on the sunroof control until it moves
to a fully closed position. This resets the sunroof
memory, enabling the sunroof to function properly.

Here are some situations you may experience with
your fuel gage. None of these indicate a problem
with the fuel gage.
At the gas station, the fuel pump shuts off
before the gage reads full.
It takes a little more or less fuel to ll up than
the fuel gage indicated. For example, the
gage may have indicated the tank was half full,
but it actually took a little more or less than
half the tank’s capacity to ll the tank.
The gage goes back to empty when you turn
off the ignition.
If you have a diesel engine, see “Fuel Gage” in
the Diesel Engine Supplement.
Low Fuel Warning Light
The light next to the fuel gage will come on briey
when you are starting the engine.
This light comes on when the fuel tank is low on
fuel. To turn it off, add fuel to the fuel tank.
SeeFuel on page 470.
