How It Works
• When you shift into Reverse (R), a real\btime image
of the area behind your vehicle is shown in the
navigation display.
• Yellow parking guide lines also appear to help you judge distance.
• The rearview display turns off when you shift out of Reverse.
For added convenience, the area behind your vehicle is displayed to help you navigate
while backing up.
REVERSE TILT DOOR MIRRORS
When you shift into Reverse (R), you can tilt either door mirror down slightly to
improve your view as you parallel park. Shifting out of Reverse returns the tilted
mirror to its original position.
How It Works
• To tilt the driver’s door mirror, move the
mirror selector switch
to the left (L) position.
• To tilt the passenger’s door mirror, move the
mirror selector switch
to the right (R)
position.
• To turn the feature off, move the switch to the
middle position.

Store beverages in a conveniently located box to keep them cool.
How It Works
Usage Tips
• The Cool Box is not a refrigerator or cooler. It does not cool down warm drinks.
• Do not use ice.
• Do not store perishable items inside for an extended amount of time.
• Keep the box closed for best results.
• The box cannot be removed for cleaning.
• Because the air conditioning system is always on when the Cool Box is in use, fuel economy may be slightly reduced.
• If the ignition switch is turned to LOCK (0), the box maintains its temperature for one hour.
• Store up to four 20\bounce bottles or six \f2\bounce cans. Keep already
cold drinks from becoming warm.
• Press the COOL BOX button to turn it on or off. A green indicator
light appears when the Cool Box is on. Cold air from the air
conditioning system flows into and circulates within the box.
