MIRRORS
AUTOMATIC DIMMING
MIRROR
A two-point pivot system allows for
horizontal and vertical adjustment of
the mirror. Adjust the mirror to center
on the view through the rear window. This mirror automatically adjusts for
headlight glare from vehicles behind
you. You can turn the feature on or off
by pressing the button at the base of
the mirror. A light to the left of the
button will illuminate to indicate
when the dimming feature is acti-
vated. The sensor to the right of the
button does not illuminate.
NOTE:
This feature is disabled when the
vehicle is moving in reverse.
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to the mirror dur-
ing cleaning, never spray any clean-
ing solution directly onto the mirror.
Apply the solution onto a clean cloth
and wipe the mirror clean.

OUTSIDE MIRRORS
To receive maximum benefit, adjust
the outside mirrors to center on the
adjacent lane of traffic and a slight
overlap of the view obtained from the
inside mirror.
NOTE:
The passenger side convex outside
mirror will give a much wider view
to the rear, and especially of the
lane next to your vehicle.WARNING!
Vehicles and other objects seen in
the passenger side convex mirror
will look smaller and farther away
than they really are. Relying too
much on your passenger side convex
mirror could cause you to collide
with another vehicle or other object.
Use your inside mirror when judging
the size or distance of a vehicle seen
in the passenger side convex mirror.POWER MIRRORS
The power mirror switch is located on
the driver's door trim. A rotary knob
selects the left mirror, right mirror or
off position.
After selecting a mirror, move the
knob in the same direction you want
the mirror to move. When finished,
return the knob to the center “O”
(Off) position to guard against acci-
dentally moving a mirror position.
HEATED MIRRORS
These mirrors are heated to
melt frost or ice. This feature is
activated whenever you turn
on the rear window defroster. Refer to
“Rear Window Features” in “Under-
standing The Features Of Your Ve-
hicle” for further information.
VANITY MIRROR
A vanity mirror is attached to the
inside face of the sun visor. To use the
mirror, rotate the sun visor downward
and flip the mirror cover upward.

If the phone is not reachable and the
Uconnect™ Phone is operational, you
may reach the emergency number as
follows:
 Press the
button to begin.
 After the “Ready” prompt and the following beep, say “Emergency”
and the Uconnect™ Phone will in-
struct the paired mobile phone to
call the emergency number.
NOTE:
 The default number is 112. The number dialed may not be ap-
plicable with the available mo-
bile service and area.
 If supported, this number may be programmable on some sys-
tems. To do this, press the
button and say “Setup”, fol-
lowed by “Emergency”.
 The Uconnect™ Phone does slightly lower your chances of
successfully making a phone
call as to that for the mobile
phone directly.
WARNING!
To use your Uconnect™ Phone Sys-
tem in an emergency, your mobile
phone must be:
 turned on,
 paired to the Uconnect™ System,
 and have network coverage.
Breakdown Service (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
If you need Breakdown service:
 Press the
button to begin.
 After the “Ready” prompt and the following beep, say “Breakdown
service”.
NOTE:
The Breakdown service number
has to be setup before using. To
setup, press the
button and say
“Setup, Breakdown Service” and
follow prompts.
Paging
To learn how to page refer to “Work-
ing with Automated Systems”. Paging
works properly except for pagers of
certain companies which time out a
little too soon to work properly with
the Uconnect™ Phone. Voice Mail Calling
To learn how to access your voice
mail, refer to “Working with Auto-
mated Systems”.
Working With Automated Systems
This method is used in instances
where one generally has to press num-
bers on the mobile phone keypad
while navigating through an auto-
mated telephone system.
You can use your Uconnect™ Phone
to access a voice mail system or an
automated service, such as a paging
service or automated customer ser-
vice. Some services require immediate
response selection. In some instances,
that may be too quick for use of the
Uconnect™ Phone.
When calling a number with your
Uconnect™ Phone that normally re-
quires you to enter in a touch-tone
sequence on your mobile phone key-
pad, you can press the
button
and say the sequence you wish to en-
ter followed by the word “Send”. For
example, if required to enter your PIN
followed with a hash, (3 7 4 6 #), you
can press the
button and say, “3

WARNING!
 Adjusting a seat while drivingmay be dangerous. Moving a seat
while driving could result in loss
of control which could cause a
collision and serious injury or
death.
 Seats should be adjusted before
fastening the seat belts and while
the vehicle is parked. Serious in-
jury or death could result from a
poorly adjusted seat belt.
 Do not ride with the seatback re-
clined so that the shoulder belt is
no longer resting against your
chest. In a collision you could slide
under the seat belt, which could
result in serious injury or death.CAUTION!
Do not place any article under any
seat as it may cause damage to the
seat controls.
HEATED SEATS
On some models, the front driver and
passenger seats may be equipped with
heaters in both the seat cushions and
seatbacks. The controls for the front heated seats are located on the center
instrument panel area.
You can choose from HIGH, LOW or
OFF heat settings. Amber indicator
lights in each switch indicate the level
of heat in use. Two indicator lights
will illuminate for HIGH, one for
LOW and none for OFF.
Press the switch once to se-
lect HIGH-level heating.
Press the switch a second
time to select LOW-level
heating. Press the switch a third time
to shut the heating elements OFF.
If HIGH-level heating is selected, the
system automatically switches to
LOW-level heating and turns one in-
dicator light OFF after a maximum of
60 minutes of continuous operation.
It will turn the heater and the remain-
ing indicator light OFF after a maxi-
mum of 45 minutes of continuous op-
eration. If LOW-level heating is
selected, the system automatically
turns the heater and the indicator
light OFF after a maximum of
45 minutes of continuous operation.
86

NOTE:
Once a heat setting is selected, heat
will be felt within two to five min-
utes.WARNING!
 Persons who are unable to feelpain to the skin because of ad-
vanced age, chronic illness, diabe-
tes, spinal cord injury, medica-
tion, alcohol use, exhaustion or
other physical condition must ex-
ercise care when using the seat
heater. It may cause burns even at
low temperatures, especially if
used for long periods of time.
 Do not place anything on the seat
that insulates against heat, such
as a blanket or cushion. This may
cause the seat heater to overheat.
Sitting in a seat that has been
overheated could cause serious
burns due to the increased surface
temperature of the seat. RECLINER ADJUSTMENT
The recliner control is on the out-
board side of the seat. To recline the
seat, lean forward slightly and lift the
lever. Then lean back to the position
desired and release the lever. To re-
turn the seatback to its normal up-
right position, lean forward and lift
the lever. Release the lever once the
seatback is in the upright position.
WARNING!
Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is
moving is dangerous. The sudden
movement of the seat could cause
you to lose control. The seat belt
might not be properly adjusted and
you could be injured. Adjust the seat
only while the vehicle is parked.
(Continued)
WARNING!
(Continued)
 Do not ride with the seatback re-
clined so that the shoulder belt is
no longer resting against your
chest. In a collision you could slide
under the seat belt and be seri-
ously or even fatally injured. Use
the recliner only when the vehicle
is parked.
LUMBAR SUPPORT
This feature allows you to increase or
decrease the amount of lumbar sup-
port. The control lever is on the in-
board side of the seat. Turn the con-
