and should always be adjusted if the car is driven to a new magnetic zone. To do so:
- Switch the ignition to position II.
- Press the button on the rear side of the mirror with straightened paperclip or similar object for approximately 3
seconds until ZONE is displayed. The number of the current magnetic zone will also be displayed.

After several seconds, the compass heading will again be displayed, and the change of magnetic zones is complete.
Calibrating the compass
- Stop the car in a large, open area, away from traffic.
- Turn off as many electrical devices in the car as possible to avoid interference with the compass (e.g. audio system,
etc).
- Using a pen or similar object, hold the button (1) depressed for at least 6 seconds. "CAL" will be displayed.
- Drive slowly in a circle at a maximum speed of 5 m.p.h. (8 km/h) until CAL is no longer displayed.

Remote central locking and sideview mirror memory-option
If you lock the vehicle and later unlock it with the same remote control and open the driver's door, the sideview
mirrors (and the driver's seat) will automatically move to the position they were in when you left the vehicle. This
feature will work in the same way with all of the remote control transmitters (up to 3) that you use with your vehicle.
This feature will not function if you lock your vehicle with the key.
Water repellent glass-option on certain models
The side door windows can be treated with a water repellent coating. The symbol to the left indicates
these windows have this coating. The optional laminated side windows always have this coating.
The coating improves vision by causing the water to run off quickly.
See page 163
for information on cleaning this type of glass.
CAUTION!
Use only suitable plastic scrapers to remove ice or snow from the windows. Using a metal ice scraper could damage
the water repellent coating.
