Heated outside mirrors
Both mirrors are heated
automatically to remove ice, mist
and fog when the rear window
defrost is activated.
Do not remove ice from the mirrors
with a scraper or attempt to
readjust the mirror glass if it is
frozen in place. These actions could
cause damage to the glass and
mirrors.
Automatic dimming rear view mirror
Your vehicle is equipped with an inside rear view mirror and a driver's
outside mirror that has an auto-dimming function. The electronic
day/night mirrors will change from the normal state to the non-glare
state when bright lights (glare) reach the mirrors. When the inside rear
view mirror detects bright light from in front of or behind the vehicle,
the inside and driver side outside rear view mirrors will automatically
adjust (darken) to minimize glare.

ELECTRONIC COMPASS (IF EQUIPPED)
The compass reading may be affected when you drive near large
buildings, bridges, power lines and powerful broadcast antennas.
Magnetic or metallic objects placed in, on or near the vehicle may also
affect compass accuracy.
Usually, when something affects the compass readings, the compass will
correct itself after a few days of operating your vehicle in normal
conditions. If the compass still appears to be inaccurate, a manual
calibration may be necessary. 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.
Compass zone adjustment
The compass in the mirror is set in
ZONE eight at the factory. It may be
necessary to adjust the compass if
you live outside zone eight or during
a long distance trip.
1. Determine which magnetic zone
you are in for your geographic
location by referring to the zone
map.
2. Turn the ignition to the ON
position.
Without moon roof:
1. With the compass display turned
on, press and hold the COMP side of
the control until the zone selection
number appears in the mirror
display window.
2. Release the COMP side of the
control, then press it down again.
3. Continue to press until your zone
number is shown in the mirror
display, then release.
4. The display will show all segments, then return to normal compass
mode within ten seconds.

The message center will display theMemory Profile Systemfeatures
(operator selectable features) which are selected from the MENU and
VEHICLE HANDLING controls.
The Memory Profile System allows for two primary drivers to save their
individual seat and outside rearview mirror position preferences. The
feature will then be set to the remote entry transmitter, that will
automatically recall the saved individualized preferences. Refer toBasic
Operation of Memory Profile Systemin this section.
Basic operation of Memory Profile System
In order for the system to be able to store or recall an individual's seat
and mirror position preferences, the Memory Profile must first recognize
who will be driving the vehicle. Drivers may identify themselves to the
system one of two ways:
²Pressing the unlock control on
the appropriate remote
transmitter (Memory position 1 or
Memory position 2 is identified by
the number on the back of the
remote transmitter) before
opening the driver's door.
²Entering either the Personality 1
or Personality 2 personalized
code into the keyless entry
keypad before opening the
driver's door.
For information on programming
personalized codes seeRemote and
Keyless entry systemsin theLocks and Securitysection.
Once the system has identified the driver (Memory position 1 or Memory
position 2), the seat and mirror will automatically begin to move to that
driver profile. Changes made to the seat and mirror positions will
automatically be saved to that profile.
If the driver should enter the vehicle without first identifying themselves,
all features will remain at their last setting or position and any settings
will be saved to the vehicle not individualized settings.

If Memory position 1 or Memory
position 2 wishes to make
temporary changes to their seat or
outside mirror positions without
affecting their preferred positions
they may do so by:
²Using the switch on the back of
the remote transmitter to turn
the Memory Profile System OFF
prior to pressing the unlock
control on the remote transmitter
or unlocking the vehicle with the
key.
²Entering the vehicle without
identifying themselves using the two methods listed above.
²Turning the DRIVER ID (if equipped in the message center) OFF to
allow for temporary setting changes.
This option may be useful to temporarily reposition the driver's seat and
mirrors during an extended drive.
