There is a difference between magnetic
north and true north. The compass in the
mirror can compensate for this difference
when it knows the Magnetic Zone in
which it is operating. This is set either by
the dealer or by the user. The operating
Zone Numbers for North America are
shown in the figure to the right. To adjust the Zone setting:
1. Determine the desired Zone Number
based upon your current location on
the Zone Map.
2. Press and hold the button for more than 3 but less than 6 seconds,
the current Zone Number will appear
on the display.
3. Pressing and holding the button again will cause the numbers to incre-
ment (Note: they will repeat …13, 14,
15, 1, 2, …). Releasing the button
when the desired Zone Number
appears on the display will set the new
Zone.

Driving your vehicle
There are some conditions that can
cause changes to the vehicle magnets.
Items such as installing a ski rack or a
CB antenna or even some body repair
work on the vehicle can cause changes
to the vehicle's magnetic field. In these
situations, the compass will need to be
re-calibrated to quickly correct for these
changes. To re-calibrate the compass:
1. Press and hold the button formore than 6 seconds. When the com-
pass memory is cleared a "C" will
appear in the display.
2. To calibrate the compass, drive the vehicle in 2 complete circles at less
than 8 Km/h (5 mph). The back warning system assists the
driver during backward movement of the
vehicle by sounding a tone of variable
duration if any object is sensed within the
distance of 120 cm (47.2 in.) behind the
vehicle. This system is a supplemental
system and it is not intended to nor does
it replace the need for extreme care and
attention of the driver. The sensing range
and objects detectable by the back sen-
sors are limited. Whenever backing-up,
pay as much attention to what is behind
you as you would in a vehicle without a
back warning system.
WARNING
- Supplemental
back warning
Back warning system is only a sup-
plementary function. The driver
must turn and look behind the vehi-
cle before backing and then cau-
tiously checks all these rear view
mirrors while backing. The respon-
sibility of backing up rests always
with the driver.

tem will operate continuously.
3. To turn the automatic operation off, press any button except temperature
control button and AQS button (if
equipped). If you press the mode
selection button, air-conditioning but-
ton, defrost button, air intake control
button or fan speed button, the select-
ed function will be controlled manually
while other functions operate automat-
ically.
Regardless of the temperature setting,
when using automatic operation, the air
conditioning system will automatically
turn on to decrease the humidity inside
the vehicle, even if the temperature is set
to warm.

6TIRES PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) (IF EQUIPPED)
➀
Low Tire Pressure Indicator
➁
TPMS Malfunction Indicator
Each tire, including the spare, should
be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure rec-
ommended by the vehicle manufac-
turer on the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label. (If your vehi-
cle has tires of a different size than
the size indicated on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure
label, you should determine the
proper tire inflation pressure for
those tires.) As an added safety feature, your
vehicle has been equipped with a
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) that illuminates a low tire
pressure indicator when one or more
of your tires is significantly under-
inflated. Accordingly, when the low
tire pressure indicator illuminates,
you should stop and check your tires
as soon as possible, and inflate them
to the proper pressure. Driving on a
significantly under-inflated tire caus-
es the tire to overheat and can lead
to tire failure. Under-inflation also
reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread
life, and may affect the vehicle’s han-
dling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire mainte-
nance, and it is the driver’s responsi-
bility to maintain correct tire pres-
sure, even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumina-
tion of the TPMS low tire pressure
indicator.
Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not
operating properly. The TPMS mal-
function indicator is a separate indi-
cator, which displays the symbol
"TPMS" when illuminated. When the
malfunction indicator is illuminated,
the system may not be able to detect
or signal low tire pressure as intend-
ed. TPMS malfunctions may occur for
a variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alterna-
tive tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS from functioning
properly. Always check the TPMS
malfunction indicator after replacing
one or more tires or wheels on your
vehicle to ensure that the replace-
ment or alternate tires and wheels
allow the TPMS to continue to func-
tion properly.

Wheels are also marked with impor-
tant information that you need if you
ever have to replace one. The follow-
ing explains what the letters and
numbers in the wheel size designa-
tion mean.
Example wheel size designation:

The chart below lists many of the dif-
ferent speed ratings currently being
used for passenger cars. The speed
rating is part of the tire size designa-
tion on the sidewall of the tire. This
symbol corresponds to that tire's
designed maximum safe operating
speed.
3. Checking tire life (TIN : Tire
Identification Number) Any tires that are over 6 years, based
on the manufacturing date, tire
strength and performance, decline
with age naturally (even unused
spare tires). Therefore, the tires
(including the spare tire) should be
replaced by new ones. You can find
the manufacturing date on the tire
sidewall (possibly on the inside of the
wheel), displaying the DOT Code.
The DOT Code is a series of num-
bers on a tire consisting of numbers
and English letters. The manufactur-
ing date is designated by the last four
digits (characters) of the DOT code.
DOT : XXXX XXXX OOOO
The front part of the DOT means a
plant code number, tire size and
tread pattern and the last four num-
bers indicate week and year manu-
factured.
For example:
DOT XXXX XXXX 1605 represents
that the tire was produced in the 16th
week of 2005.
