MIRRORS

Automatic dimming inside rear view mirror (if equipped)

Your vehicle is equipped with an inside rear view mirror with an
auto-dimming function. The electronic day/night mirror will change from
the normal state to the non-glare state when bright lights (glare) reach
the mirror. When the mirror detects bright light from front or behind, it
will automatically adjust to minimize glare.

bottom of the mirror to turn the
mirror on or off. The mirror will
automatically return to the normal
state whenever the vehicle is placed
in R (reverse)(when the mirror is
on) to ensure a bright clear view
when backing up.

Do not clean the housing or glass of
any mirror with harsh abrasives, fuel
or other petroleum-based cleaning
products.

Power side view mirrors (if equipped)

To adjust your mirrors:

1. Select L to adjust the left mirror
or R to adjust the right mirror.

2. Move the control in the direction
you wish to tilt the mirror.

3. Return to the center position to
disable the adjust function.

Heated outside mirrors

(if equipped)

The main mirror glass is heated automatically to remove ice, mist and
fog and activates when the vehicle is started.

Note: The mirrors may be hot to the touch but will not burn. This is a
normal condition.

Type A

The mirror heating elements are
designed to operate regardless of
the geographic location of the
vehicle. There is no switch to turn
on, or other operator involvement
required other than to start the
vehicle.

Type B

The spotter mirror, below the main
mirror, is not heated and must be
adjusted manually.

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.

Mirror mounted side turn signal indicator (if equipped)

Type A

When the vehicle turn signals are
activated, the mirrors will show a
blinking red arrow.

The turn signal provides an
additional warning to other drivers
that your vehicle is about to turn.

Type B

When the vehicle turn signals are
activated, the outer portion of the
mirror housing will blink amber.

The turn signal feature can be seen
by other drivers who may approach
from the rear of the vehicle.

Driver Controls

Clearance lamps (if equipped)

Illuminates when the headlamps or
parking lamps are switched on.

This provides additional visibility of
your vehicle to other drivers on the
road.

Fold-away mirrors

The mirrors can be manually folded forward or backwards for narrow
spaces like driving through an automatic car wash or backing out of a
garage with the trailer tow mirror.

The telescoping feature (if equipped) allows the mirror to extend
approximately 3.15 inches (80 mm). This feature is especially useful to
the driver when towing a trailer.
