Outside Automatic Dimming Mirror
If your vehicle is equipped with this feature, the driver’s
outside mirror will adjust for the glare of headlamps
behind you. This feature is controlled by the on and off
settings found on the electrochromic mirror.
Outside Curb View Assist Mirrors
If the vehicle has the memory package, the outside
mirrors are able to perform the curb view assist mirror
function. This feature will cause the passenger’s
and/or driver’s mirror to tilt to a preselected position
when the vehicle is in REVERSE (R). This feature may
be useful in allowing the driver to view the curb when
parallel parking. When the vehicle is shifted out of
REVERSE (R) and a short delay has occurred,
the passenger’s and/or driver’s mirror will return to its
original position.
To change the preselected tilt position, adjust the
mirrors to the desired position while the vehicle is in
REVERSE (R). When the vehicle is shifted out of
REVERSE (R), this new position is saved in memory as
the tilt position.
This feature can be turned on or off through the Driver
Information Center (DIC). See Driver Information
Center (DIC) on page 3-51 for more information.
Outside Convex Mirror
Your passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror’s surface is curved so you can see more from the
driver’s seat.
{CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder
before changing lanes.
Outside Heated Mirrors
The vehicle may have outside heated mirrors which
helps clear them of condensation, snow, and ice.
The mirror heat is controlled by pressing the outside
mirror button, if the vehicle has a sliding rear window, or
the rear window defogger button. See “Rear Window
Defogger” under Dual Automatic Climate Control System
on page 3-24 for further information.
The mirror heat will turn off about 10 minutes after the
button is pressed. Press the button again if additional
warming time is needed.
