2-13 Resynchronization
After you have changed the battery in your remote
keyless entry transmitter, you will need to resynchronize
the transmitter. To do this, press the LOCK and
UNLOCK buttons together and hold for approximately
seven seconds (or until the horn chirps three times). You
will need to use this procedure if your vehicle has lost
battery power for an extended period of time.
Trunk Lid
CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the trunk lid
open because carbon monoxide (CO) gas can
come into your vehicle. You can't see or smell
CO. It can cause unconsciousness and even death.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
If you must drive with the trunk lid open or if
electrical wiring or other cable connections must
pass through the seal between the body and
the trunk:
Make sure all other windows are shut.
Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed with the setting
on VENT. That will force outside air into
your vehicle. See ªComfort Controlsº in
the Index.
If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the way.
See ªEngine Exhaustº in the Index.
Trunk Lock
To unlock the trunk from the outside, insert the key and

Compass Calibration
To place the compass into calibration mode, press both
map lamp buttons and hold for over eight seconds
until the letter ªCº is displayed in the mirror
compass window.
The mirror can be calibrated in one of two ways:
drive the vehicle in circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less
until the display indicates a direction, or
drive the vehicle on your everyday routine.
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 both map lamp buttons on the bottom
of the mirror, for five to eight seconds, until the zone
number appears in the display.
3. Press the right lamp button to increase the zone
numbers or press the left lamp button to decrease the
zone numbers. After you have selected your zone
number, the display will show a compass direction
after five seconds. (Compass calibration may be
necessary. See ªCompass Calibrationº in the Index.)

instrument panel outlets.
BI-LEVEL: This setting directs air two ways. Half
of the air is directed through the instrument panel outlets.

FLOOR: This setting sends most of the air
through the ducts near the floor. The rest comes out of
the defroster and side window vents.
DEFOG: This setting allows half of the air to go

Understanding Radio Reception
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM,
especially at night. The longer range, however, can
cause stations to interfere with each other. AM can pick
up noise from things like storms and power lines. Try
reducing the treble to reduce this noise if you ever get it.
FM Stereo
FM stereo will give you the best sound, but FM signals
will reach only about 10 to 40 miles (16 to 65 km). Tall
buildings or hills can interfere with FM signals, causing
the sound to come and go.
