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).

INTERIOR MIRROR

WARNING

Do not adjust the mirror when your
vehicle is moving.

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

You can adjust the interior mirror to your
preference. Some mirrors also have a
second pivot point. This lets you move the
mirror head up or down and from side to
side.

Pull the tab below the mirror toward you
to reduce glare at night.

SUN VISORS

Rotate the sun visor toward the side
window and extend it rearward for extra

MOONROOF

WARNINGS

Do not leave children unattended in
your vehicle and do not let them play
with the moonroof. They may

seriously injure themselves.

When closing the moonroof, you
should verify that it is free of
obstructions and make sure that

children and pets are not in the proximity
of the roof opening.

The moonroof control is on the overhead
console.

The moonroof has a one-touch open and
close feature. To stop its movement during
a one-touch operation, press the control
a second time.

Opening and Closing the Moonroof

E138669

Press and release the rear of the control
to open the moonroof. The moonroof stops
short of the fully opened position.

Note: This position helps to reduce wind
noise or rumbling that may happen with the
moonroof fully open. Press and hold the
control again to fully open the moonroof.

Press and release the front of the control
to close the moonroof.

Bounce-Back

The moonroof stops automatically while
closing. It reverses some distance if there
is an obstacle in the way.

Press and hold the front of the control
within two seconds of a bounce-back
event to override this function. While
bounce-back is active, the closing force
increases for each of the next three times
that you close the moonroof.

Venting the Moonroof

Press and release the front of the control
to vent the moonroof. Press and release
the rear of the control to close the
moonroof.

Note: When you vent the moonroof, it rises
to 1.57 in (4 cm) and then lowers slightly.
This is normal. You cannot stop the
moonroof in the higher position.
