Memory feature (if equipped)
The power side view mirror positions are saved when doing a memory
set function and can be recalled along with the vehicle personality
features when a memory position is selected through the remote entry
transmitter, keyless entry keypad or memory switch on the driver’s door.
Refer to Memory feature in the Seating and Safety Restraints chapter.
Heated outside mirrors (if equipped)
Both mirrors are heated
automatically to remove ice, mist
and fog when the rear window
defrost is activated.
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.
Do not clean the housing or glass of any mirror with harsh
abrasives, fuel or other petroleum-based cleaning products.
Fold-away mirrors
Fold the side mirrors in carefully before driving through a narrow space,
like an automatic car wash.
Powerfold mirrors (if equipped)
You can fold the side mirrors
simultaneously using the power
mirror button. Press the button to
fold the mirrors in or out. Powerfold
the side mirrors in carefully when
driving through a narrow space, like
an automatic car wash.
The powerfold mirrors may be moved inward/outward manually.
However, if a mirror is moved manually, it will need to be reset. A mirror
which has not been reset may appear to be loose. To reset: momentarily
press the button to fold the mirrors in. An audible “click” will be heard
indicating re-synchronization. If the click is not heard, use the switch to
fold the mirrors out, then in, until the click is heard. After that, the
mirrors will operate normally until they are again moved manually.
