You can program your vehicle so that the exterior lamps
will ash when you unlock the doors with the remote
keyless entry transmitter. SeeDIC Vehicle
Personalization on page 3-74for more information on
programming this feature.
If your vehicle is programmed for remote conrmation,
the doors must be closed for this feature to work. If a door
is open, remote conrmation will be canceled.
L(Panic Alarm):The remote keyless entry transmitter
comes equipped with an instant panic alarm. Press
the horn symbol when the ignition is turned off. The horn
will sound and the exterior lamps will ash for up to
30 seconds. To stop the instant panic alarm, press the
symbol again or turn the ignition to ON.
V(Trunk):Press this button to open the trunk.
The remote keyless entry transmitter can be used to
recall the memory settings for up to two drivers.
For more information, seeDIC Vehicle Personalization
on page 3-74andMemory Seat and Mirrors on
page 2-52.
Matching Transmitter(s) to Your
Vehicle
Each remote keyless entry transmitter is coded to
prevent another transmitter from unlocking your vehicle.
If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can
be purchased through your dealer. Remember to bring
any remaining transmitters with you when you go to
your dealer. When the dealer matches the replacement
transmitter to your vehicle, any remaining transmitters
must also be matched. Once your dealer has coded the
new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock
your vehicle. Each vehicle can have a maximum of
four transmitters matched to it.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote keyless
entry transmitter should last about four years.
You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter won’t
work at the normal range in any location. If you have
to get close to your vehicle before the transmitter works,
it’s probably time to change the battery.
Notice:When replacing the battery, use care not to
touch any of the circuitry. Static from your body
transferred to these surfaces may damage the
transmitter.

Sport Mode Button
(Automatic Transmission)
This button allows you to change the driving mode of
the vehicle from the normal driving mode to a sportier
driving mode. In sport mode the vehicle will have rmer
shifting and increased performance.
The sport mode button is
located on the center
console near the
transmission shift lever.
Press the button once to turn on the sport mode. Press
the button again to return to normal driving mode.This light located on the
instrument panel cluster
will come on while
the sport mode is active.
When driving in sport mode, the transmission may
remain in a gear longer than it would in normal driving
mode. Also, if the transmission is in AUTOMATIC
OVERDRIVE (D) when the sport mode button is
pressed, the transmission will immediately downshift
into FOURTH (4) gear to provide more power. Both of
these situations are normal and do not indicate a
transmission problem.
When you turn off the ignition while driving in sport mode,
the vehicle will remain in sport mode. If your vehicle is
equipped with the memory feature, the transmission
mode (sport or normal) will be saved with the memory
seat position. Press the sport mode button again to turn
off the feature and return to normal driving mode.

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 Power Mirrors
The control on the driver’s door armrest operates
both outside rearview mirrors.Press the left or right mirror symbol on the selector
switch to choose the driver’s side or passenger’s side
mirror. The center position turns the control off so
that the mirrors will not move if the control pad is
touched.
Once a mirror is selected, use the arrows on the control
pad to move the mirror to the correct direction. Adjust
each mirror so you can see the side of your vehicle and
the area behind your vehicle.
The mirrors can be manually folded inward to prevent
damage when going through an automatic car wash.
To fold, push the mirror toward the vehicle. To return the
mirror to its original position, push outward. Be sure
to return both mirrors to their original unfolded position
before driving.
If the vehicle has the memory package, the mirrors can
be programmed for personalization and curb view
assist. For more information, seeMemory Seat and
Mirrors on page 2-52andDIC Vehicle Personalization
on page 3-74.
2-42

Outside Curb View Assist Mirror
If the vehicle has the memory seat and mirrors, it will be
capable of adjusting the passenger’s mirror to tilt to a
preselected position when the vehicle is shifted into
REVERSE (R). Use this outside curb view assist feature
to view the curb when parallel parking.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R) and
after a ve-second delay, the passenger’s mirror
will return to its original position.
If further adjustment is needed after the mirror is tilted,
the mirror controls can be used. SeeOutside Power
Mirrors on page 2-42for more information.
The outside curb view assist can be turned or off
through the Driver Information Center (DIC). SeeDIC
Vehicle Personalization on page 3-74for more
information.
Outside Convex Mirror
{CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder
before changing lanes.
The passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror’s surface is curved so that more can be seen
from the driver’s seat. The mirror does not have
a dimming feature.
Outside Heated Mirrors
When the rear window defogger is turned on, it also
warms both outside rearview mirrors to help clear them
of fog or ice. See “Rear Window Defogger” under
Dual Climate Control System on page 3-27for more
information.

I(Vent):Turn the control counterclockwise to this
position to use the vent feature. The glass panel
will tilt upward from the vehicle. The sunshade must be
opened manually.
?(Close):Turn the control to this position to close
the sunroof. The sunshade must be closed manually.
Anti-Pinch Feature
If an object is in the path of the sunroof when it is
closing, the anti-pinch feature will detect the object and
stop the sunroof from closing at the point of the
obstruction. The sunroof will then return to the full-open
or vent position. To close the sunroof once it has
re-opened, turn the control to the closed position.
Anti-Pinch Feature Override
A condition may exist that causes anti-pinch feature of
the sunroof to activate due to weather or an obstruction.
In an emergency, the anti-pinch feature can be
overridden in a supervised mode.
To override the anti-pinch feature rotate the sunroof
control to the closed position, then press the control
upward and continue pressing upward until sunroof
reaches the desired position.
In this mode, the window can still close on an object in
its path. Use care when using the override mode.
