Outside Curb View Assist Mirror
If your vehicle has the outside curb view assist mirror,
which tips the passenger mirror down while the vehicle is
in REVERSE (R), it can be made active or inactive
through the DIC. When TILT MIRRORS – OFF/ON
appears on the display, use the ENG/MET button to
toggle the arrow between OFF and ON. When you have
made your choice, press the RESET button to record
your selection. For more information on this feature, see
Outside Curb View Assist Mirror on page 2-36.
Driver ID
This feature displays the DRIVER ID, as identied by
the DIC. If this feature is ON, the DRIVER ID will
be displayed every time the ignition is turned on. If the
DRIVER ID is OFF, the DRIVER ID can be displayed
by pressing either a button on the remote keyless entry
transmitter or a memory seat button.
Language Selection
After DRIVER ID has been selected, “Language
English” will be displayed. Pressing the RESET button
selects English as the DIC language and ends
programming. If you prefer the language to be French
or Spanish, press the ENG/MET button when “Language
English” appears on the display. Hold the ENG/MET
button until the desired language is displayed, then
press the RESET button to select that language.
Audio System(s)
Notice:Before adding any sound equipment to
your vehicle, like a tape player, CB radio, mobile
telephone, or two-way radio, make sure that it can
be added by checking with your dealer. Also,
check federal rules covering mobile radio and
telephone units. If sound equipment can be added,
it is very important to do it properly. Added
sound equipment may interfere with the operation
of your vehicle’s engine, radio, or other systems,
and even damage them. Your vehicle’s systems may
interfere with the operation of sound equipment
that has been added improperly.
Figure out which audio system is in your vehicle, nd
out what your audio system can do, and how to operate
all of its controls.
Your vehicle has a feature called Retained Accessory
Power (RAP). With RAP, the audio system can be
played even after the ignition is turned off. SeeRetained
Accessory Power (RAP) on page 2-23for more
information.
