Electrochromic Mirror (ECM)  
(if equipped)  
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.  
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.  
Night  
WARNING - Rear visibility  
Do not place objects in the rear  
seat or cargo area which would  
interfere with your vision through  
the rear window.  
Day  
When the engine is running, the glare is  
automatically controlled by the sensor  
mounted in the rearview mirror.  
OAM049023  
D140101AHM  
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.  
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.  
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  
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.

Retain the original transmitter for future  
programming procedures (i.e., new vehi-  
cle purchase). It is also suggested that  
upon the sale of the vehicle, the pro-  
grammed HomeLink buttons be erased

WARNING  
• When  
programming  
the  
HomeLink® Wireless Control  
System, you may be operating a  
garage door or gate operator.  
Make sure that people and objects  
are out of the way of the moving  
door or gate to prevent potential  
harm or damage.  
• Do not use HomeLink with any  
garage door opener that lacks the  
safety stop and reverse feature  
as required by federal safety  
standards. (This includes any  
garage door opener model manu-  
factured before April 1, 1982.) A  
garage door opener which cannot  
detect an object, signaling the  
door to stop and reverse, does  
not meet current federal safety  
standards. Using a garage door  
opener without these features  
increases risk of serious injury or  
death. For more information, call  
1-800-355-3515 or on the internet  
Programming  
Your vehicle may require the ignition  
switch to be turned to the ACC position  
for programming and/or operation of  
HomeLink. It is also recommended that a  
new battery be replaced in the hand-held  
transmitter of the device being pro-  
grammed to HomeLink for quicker train-  
ing and accurate transmission of the  
radio-frequency.

HomeLink® Wireless Control System  
Your new mirror comes with an integrat-  
ed HomeLink Universal Transceiver,  
which allows you to program the mirror to  
activate your garage door(s), estate gate,  
home lighting, etc. The mirror actually  
learns the codes from your various exist-  
ing transmitters.  
Follow these steps to train your

CAUTION  
Outside rearview mirror  
Do not scrape ice off the mirror  
face; this may damage the surface  
of the glass. If ice should restrict  
the movement of the mirror, do not  
force the mirror for adjustment. To  
remove ice, use a deicer spray, or a  
sponge or soft cloth with very warm  
water.  
Be sure to adjust the mirror angles  
before driving.  
Your vehicle is equipped with both left-  
hand and right-hand outside rearview  
mirrors. The mirrors can be adjusted  
remotely with the remote switch. The mir-  
ror heads can be folded back to prevent  
damage during an automatic car wash or  
when passing through a narrow street.  
OSL040027  
CAUTION  
D140201AHM-EE  
WARNING - Rearview mir-  
rors  
• The right outside rearview mirror  
is convex. Objects seen in the  
mirror are closer than they  
appear.  
• Use your interior rearview mirror  
or direct observation to deter-  
mine the actual distance of fol-  
lowing vehicles when changing  
lanes.  
If the mirror is jammed with ice, do  
not adjust the mirror by force. Use  
an approved spray de-icer (not radi-  
ator antifreeze) to release the  
frozen mechanism or move the  
vehicle to a warm place and allow  
the ice to melt.  
Remote control  
Electric type  
The electric remote control mirror switch  
allows you to adjust the position of the  
left and right outside rearview mirrors. To  
adjust the position of either mirror the  
ignition switch should be in the ACC posi-  
tion. Move the switch (1) to R or L to  
select the right side mirror or the left side  
mirror, then press a corresponding point  
on the mirror adjustment control to posi-  
tion the selected mirror up, down, left or  
right.  
WARNING  
Do not adjust or fold the outside  
rearview mirrors while the vehicle  
is moving. This could result in loss  
of control, and an accident which  
could cause death, serious injury  
or property damage.  
After the adjustment, put the switch into  
the neutral (center) position to prevent  
inadvertent adjustment.
