Compass Calibration
If the letter “C” should ever appear in the compass
window, the compass may need calibration.
The mirror can be calibrated in one of two ways:
0 Drive the vehicle in circles at five mph (8 km/h) or
less until the display reads a direction, or
0 Drive the vehicle on your everyday routine.
Power Remote Control Mirror
The controls on the far
left of the instrument
panel control both outside
rearview mirrors. Move
the center switch to the
left to select the driver’s
side rearview mirror, or
to the right to select the
passenger’s side
rearview mirror.
To lock the controls, leave the selector switch in the
middle position.
When you operate the rear window defogger, a defogger
also warms the driver’s and passenger’s outside
rearview mirrors to help clear them of ice and snow.
Your vehicle
is equipped with the memory function. The
mirror positions, along with the driver’s set position, can
be stored into memory. See “Memory Seat and Mirrors”
in the Index.
Parallel Park Assist Mirror
The passenger’s outside rearview mirror also includes a
tilt-down feature that operates when the shift lever is in
reverse. This feature assists the driver with improved
rear obstacle detection.
Move the power remote control mirror switch to the
left
(L) or center position to enable this feature. Move
the switch to the right
(R) to turn this feature off.
Then press the arrows
to adjust each mirror so that you
can just see the side
of your vehicle when you are sitting
in a comfortable driving position.
