Bounce-Back (Driver’s window only)
When an obstacle has been detected in the window opening as the
window is moving upward, the window will automatically reverse
direction and move down. This is known as “bounce-back”. If the ignition
is turned off (without accessory delay being active) during bounce-back,
the window will move down until the bounce-back position is reached.
Security Override
To override a bounce-back condition, within two seconds after the
window reaches the bounce-back position, pull and hold the switch up
andthe window will travel up with no bounce-back or pinch
protection.If the switch is released before the window is fully closed,
the window will stop. For example, this can be used to overcome the
resistance of ice on the window or seals.
Window lock
The window lock feature allows only
the driver to operate the power
windows.
To lock out all the window controls
(except for the driver’s) press the
right side of the control. Press the
left side to restore the window
controls.
Accessory delay
With accessory delay, the audio system, power windows and moon roof
(if equipped) operate for up to 10 minutes after the ignition switch is
turned from the on to the off position or until either front door is
opened.
INTERIOR MIRROR

Automatic dimming interior rear view mirror
Your vehicle is equipped with an interior rear view mirror which has an
auto-dimming function. The electronic day/night mirror will change from
the normal (high reflective) state to the non-glare (darkened) state
when bright lights (glare) reach the mirror. When the mirror detects
bright light from behind the vehicle, it will automatically adjust (darken)
to minimize glare.
Without microphone
With microphone
The mirror will automatically return to the normal state whenever the
vehicle is placed in R (Reverse) to ensure a bright clear view when
backing up.
Do not block the sensors on the front and back of the interior
rear view mirror since this may impair proper mirror
performance.
Do not clean the housing or glass of any mirror with harsh
abrasives, fuel or other petroleum-based cleaning products.
Note:If your vehicle is equipped with a reverse camera system, a video
image will display in the mirror or the navigation system display (if
equipped) when the vehicle is put in R (Reverse). Refer toReverse
camera systemin theDrivingchapter.

Memory seat/power mirrors/adjustable pedals (if equipped)
This system allows automatic
positioning of the driver seat,
outside rearview mirrors and
adjustable pedals to two
programmable positions.
The memory seat control is located
on the outboard side of the seat cushion.
•To program position one, move the driver seat, exterior mirrors and
adjustable pedals to the desired positions using the associated
controls. Press and hold control button 1 for at least two seconds.
•To program position two, repeat the previous procedure using control
button 2.
A position can only be recalled when the transmission gearshift is in Park
(automatic transmission). A memory seat position may be programmed
at any time.
The memory seat positions are also recalled when you press your remote
entry transmitter
(unlock) control and the transmitter is
programmed to a memory seat position or when you enter a valid
customer code 1 or 2 on the keypad.
To program the memory seat to remote entry transmitter, refer to
Remote entry systemin theLocks and Security chapter.
Note: The seat will not travel to its final position if the key is not
in the ignition and the easy entry feature is enabled.
Climate controlled seats (if equipped)
Note:It is recommended for optimal performance that the vehicle air
conditioning system be run in the same mode (either heating or cooling)
as the climate control seat system. During start up of the climate control
seat system, a slight difference in seat surface temperature may be
perceived between the seat cushion and seat back until the cabin and
seat temperatures stabilize. If the vehicle air conditioning system is run
in floor mode, the effect may be more pronounced. Switching between
seat heat and seat cool modes in alternate succession will delay the time
it takes for the seat temperatures (back and cushion) to stabilize.
The controls for the climate controlled seats are located on the dual
electronic automatic temperature control (DEATC) system.

REVERSE CAMERA SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The reverse camera system located
on the liftgate provides a video
image, which appears in the rear
view mirror or on the navigation
screen (if equipped), of the area
behind the vehicle. It adds
assistance to the driver while
reversing or reverse parking the
vehicle.
To use the reverse camera system,
place the transmission in R
(Reverse); an image will display on
the left portion of the rear view
mirror or on the navigation screen
(if equipped). The area displayed on
the screen may vary according to
the vehicle orientation and/or road
condition.
•(1) Rear bumper
•(2) Red zone
•(3) Yellow zone
•(4) Green zone
•(5) Centerline of vehicle
Always use caution while backing.
Objects in the red zone are closest to your vehicle and objects in the
green zone are further away. Objects are getting closer to your vehicle as
they move from the green zone to the yellow or red zones.
Use the side mirrors and rear view mirror to get better coverage on both
sides and rear of the vehicle. When shifting out of reverse and into any
other gear, the image will remain on for a few seconds before it shuts off
to assist in parking or trailer hookup.
If equipped with the Navigation system, after shifting out of R (Reverse)
and into any gear other than P (Park), the image will remain until the
vehicle speed reaches five mph (8 km/h), only if the rear camera delay
feature is on, or until any navigation radio button is depressed.
Note:The default setting for the rear camera delay is off. Push the
“Settings” button found on the navigation screen (if equipped) to set the
rear camera delay feature to on or off.

When towing, the reverse camera system will only see what is being
towed behind the vehicle; this might not provide adequate coverage as it
usually provides in normal operation and some objects might not be
seen.
The camera lens for the reverse camera system is located on the liftgate,
above the license plate. Keep the lens clean so the video image remains
clear and undistorted. Clean the lens with a soft, lint-free cloth and
non-abrasive cleaner.
Note:If the reverse camera system image is not clear or seems
distorted, it may be covered with water droplets, snow, mud or any other
substance. If this occurs, clean the camera lens before using the reverse
camera system.
WARNING:The reverse camera system is a reverse aid
supplement device that still requires the driver to use it in
conjunction with the rear view mirror and the side mirrors for
maximum coverage.
WARNING:Objects that are close to either corner of the
bumper or under the bumper, might not be seen on the screen
due to the limited coverage of the reverse camera system.
WARNING:Backup as slow as possible since higher speeds
might limit your reaction time to stop the vehicle.
WARNING:Do not use the reverse camera system with the
liftgate open.
If the back end of the vehicle is hit or damaged, then check with your
authorized dealer to have your rear video system checked for proper
coverage and operation.
Night time and dark area use
At night time or in dark areas, the reverse camera system relies on the
reverse lamp lighting to produce an image. Therefore it is necessary that
both reverse lamps are operating in order to get a clear image in the
dark. If either of the lamps are not operating, stop using the reverse
camera system, at least in the dark, until the lamp(s) are replaced and
functioning.
