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.

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 automatical-
ly controls the glare from the headlights
of the vehicles behind you in nighttime or
low light driving conditions. The sensor
mounted in the mirror senses the light
level around the vehicle, and automati-
cally controls 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 vehi-
cle.

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.

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

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.
