Integrated Blind Spot Mirrors (If Equipped) WARNING
Objects in the blind spot mirror are
closer than they appear.
Blind spot mirrors have an integrated
convex mirror built into the upper outboard
corner of the exterior mirrors. They are
designed to increase your visibility along
the side of your vehicle. Check the main mirror first before a lane
change, then check the blind spot mirror.
If no vehicles are present in the blind spot
mirror and the traffic in the adjacent lane
is at a safe distance, signal that you intend
to change lanes. Glance over your
shoulder to verify traffic is clear and
carefully change lanes.
The image of the approaching vehicle is
small and near the inboard edge of the
main mirror when it is at a distance. The
image becomes larger and begins to move
outboard across the main mirror as the
vehicle approaches (A). The image will
transition from the main mirror and begin
to appear in the blind spot mirror as the
vehicle approaches (B). The vehicle will
transition to your peripheral field of view
as it leaves the blind spot mirror (C).

Note: Do not block the sensors on the
front and back of the mirror. Mirror
performance may be affected. A rear
center passenger or raised rear center
head restraint may also block light from

console operate the same except the
moonroof will open fully when you touch
the open control.
Automatic Glass Movement
When the retractable panoramic roof is
open, it will automatically move to a
position less than full open under certain

position and full open and your vehicle
reaches a high speed, the glass will
automatically move to the defined position.
You can override automatic movement by
touching the moonroof open or close
control. The feature will remain overridden

sunscreen and moonroof are open and
you touch the moonroof close control, the
moonroof will close first followed by the

HINTS ON CONTROLLING THE
INTERIOR CLIMATE
General Hints
Note: Prolonged use of recirculated air
may cause the windows to fog up.
Note: You may feel a small amount of air
from the footwell air vents regardless of
the air distribution setting.
Note: To reduce humidity build-up inside
your vehicle, do not drive with the system
switched off or with recirculated air always
switched on.
Note: Do not place objects under the front
seats as this may interfere with the airflow
to the rear seats.
Note: Remove any snow, ice or leaves
from the air intake area at the base of the
windshield. Automatic Climate Control
Note:
Do not adjust the settings when your
vehicle interior is extremely hot or cold.
The system automatically adjusts to the
previously stored settings. For the system
to function efficiently, the instrument panel
and side air vents should be fully open.
Note: At low ambient temperatures with
AUTO selected, the system directs air
toward the windshield and side windows
for as long as the engine remains cold.
Note: When you switch the system off,
outside air cannot enter your vehicle.
Note: When the system is in AUTO mode,
and the interior and exterior temperatures
are high, the system automatically selects
recirculated air to maximize cooling of the
interior. When the system reaches the
selected air temperature, it automatically
switches to outside air.
