HOMELINKUNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER (IF EQUIPPED)
The HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver, located on the driver’s visor,
provides a convenient way to replace up to three hand-held transmitters
with a single built-in device. This feature will learn the radio frequency
codes of most current transmitters to operate garage doors, entry gates,
security systems, entry door locks, and home or office lighting.
When programming your HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver, to a
garage door or gate be sure that people and objects are out of
the way to prevent potential harm or damage.
Do not use the HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by U.S.
federal safety standards (this includes any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door which cannot detect
an object, signaling the door to stop and reverse, does not meet current
U.S. federal safety standards. For more information on this matter, call
toll-free: 1–800–355–3515 or on the Internet atHomeLink.jci.com.

AUTOMATIC DIMMING INSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR (IF EQUIPPED)
Your vehicle is equipped with an inside rear view mirror which has an
auto-dimming function. The electronic day/night mirror will change from
the normal state to the non-glare state when bright lights (glare) reach
the mirror. When the mirror detects bright light from front or behind, it
will automatically adjust (darken) to minimize glare.
Do not block the sensor on the backside of the mirror since this may
impair proper mirror performance.
Press the control to turn the mirror
on or off.
The mirror will automatically return
to the normal state whenever the
vehicle is placed in R
(Reverse)(when the mirror is on) to
ensure a bright clear view when
backing up.
ELECTRONIC COMPASS (IF EQUIPPED)
The compass reading will remain accurate during most driving
conditions. Unknown to the driver, the compass is continuously
recalibrating due to magnetic fields and subtle, slow changes in vehicle
magnetics which can occur over the life of the vehicle.
The compass reading will remain fixed when significant levels are
experienced (such as steel bridges). The compass will return to normal
operation upon leaving the magnetized area.
If highly magnetized items (such as magnetic mount antennas) are
placed very near the compass the display will change to “C” for 15
seconds, then display all segments until the magnetized item is removed.
If a “C” is displayed, refer toCompass calibration adjustment.
Most geographic areas (zones) have a magnetic north compass point that
varies slightly from the northerly direction on maps. This variation is four
degrees between adjacent zones and will become noticeable as the
vehicle crosses multiple zones. A correct zone setting will eliminate this
error. Refer toCompass zone adjustment.
