Features of your vehicle
D140100AHM
Inside rearview mirror
Adjust the rearview mirror so that the
center view through the rear window is
seen. Make this adjustment before you
start driving.
D140101AHM
Day/night rearview mirror
(if equipped)
Make this adjustment before you start
driving and while the day/night lever is in
the day position.
Pull the day/night lever toward you to
reduce the glare from the headlights of
the vehicles behind you during night driv-
ing.
Remember that you lose some rearview
clarity in the night position.
D140102AHM-EE-C1
Electrochromic Mirror (ECM)
(if equipped)
The electric rearview mirror automatically
controls the glare from the headlights of
the vehicles behind you in nighttime or low
light driving conditions. The sensor mount-
ed in the mirror senses the light level
around the vehicle, and automatically con-
trols the headlight glare from the vehicles
behind you.
When the engine is running, the glare is
automatically controlled by the sensor
mounted in the rearview mirror.
Whenever the shift lever is shifted into
reverse (R), the mirror will automatically go
to the brightest setting in order to improve
the drivers view behind the vehicle.
MIRRORS
WARNING - Rear visibility
Do not place objects in the rear
seat or cargo area which would
interfere with your vision through
the rear window.
WARNING
Do not adjust the rearview mirror
while the vehicle is moving. This
could result in loss of control, and
an accident which could cause
death, serious injury or property
damage.

CAUTION
When cleaning the mirror, use a
paper towel or similar material
dampened with glass cleaner. Do
not spray glass cleaner directly on
the mirror. It may cause the liquid
cleaner to enter the mirror housing.
WARNING
When backing up, we recommend
the driver use the rear window
rather than the rearview mirror to
see objects in the road.
WARNING
Do not modify the inside mirror and
don’t install a wide mirror. It could
result in injury, during an accident
or deployment of the air bag.
