INSIDE REARVIEW MIRROR

The mirror head can be adjusted up, down, left, and right. The mirror should be adjusted to center on the view through the rear window.

Headlight glare from vehicles behind you can be reduced by moving the small control under the mirror to the night position (toward the rear of

the vehicle). The mirror should be adjusted while set in the day position (toward the windshield).

Automatic Dimming Mirror — If Equipped

The rearview mirror can be adjusted up, down, left, and right. The mirror should be adjusted to center on the view through the rear window.

This mirror automatically adjusts for headlight glare from vehicles behind you.

The Automatic Dimming Mirror feature is disabled when the vehicle is in REVERSE to improve the driver’s rear view.

The Automatic Dimming feature can be turned on or off through the touchscreen.

Digital Rearview Mirror — If Equipped

The Digital Rearview Mirror provides a high definition, wide and unobstructed view of the road behind while driving.

To activate the Digital Rearview Mirror, push the control on the bottom of the mirror forward.

    — On/Off Control 2 — Menu Button

3 — Left Scroll Button 4 — Right Scroll Button

Push the menu button next to the on/off control to access the following mirror options:

    Brightness
    Tilt
    Pan (if equipped)

Use the left and right buttons to scroll through menu options.

When not in use, pull the on/off control back toward the steering wheel to return the mirror to the regular Automatic dimming Mirror.

The Digital Rearview Mirror is not as effective during night time driving in low light applica- tions.

ILLUMINATED VANITY MIRROR — IF EQUIPPED

To access an illuminated vanity mirror, flip down one of the visors and lift the cover.

“Slide-On-Rod” Features Of Sun Visor — If Equipped

The sun visor “Slide-On-Rod” feature allows for additional flexibility in positioning the sun visor to block out the sun.

    Fold down the sun visor.
    Unclip the visor from the corner clip.
    Pivot the sun visor toward the side window.
    Extend the sun visor for additional sun blockage.

NOTE:

The sun visor can also be extended while the sun visor is against the windshield for additional sun blockage through the front of the vehicle.

OUTSIDE MIRRORS 2

The outside mirror(s) can be adjusted to the center of the adjacent lane of traffic to achieve the optimal view.

If your vehicle is equipped with puddle lamps under the outside mirrors, they can be turned off through the Uconnect system page 258.

All outside mirrors are designed to be able to be manually folded both forward and rearward to prevent damage.

DRIVER'S OUTSIDE AUTOMATIC DIMMING MIRROR — IF EQUIPPED

The driver’s outside mirror and if equipped, the passenger’s outside mirror, will automatically dim for glare from vehicles behind you. This

feature is controlled by the inside automatic dimming mirror. The mirrors will automatically adjust for headlight glare when the inside mirror adjusts.

POWER MIRRORS — IF EQUIPPED

The controls for the power mirrors are located on the driver's door trim panel.

    — Left Mirror Selection
    — Mirror Direction Control 3 — Right Mirror Selection

The power mirror controls consist of mirror select buttons and a four-way mirror control switch.

To adjust a mirror, push either the L (left) or R (right) button to select the mirror that you want to adjust.

Using the mirror control switch, push on any of the four arrows for the direction that you want the mirror to move.

POWER FOLDING OUTSIDE MIRRORS FOR STANDARD AND TRAILER TOW — IF EQUIPPED

The power folding mirrors can be folded rearward and unfolded into the normal driving position.

The switch for the power folding mirrors is located between the power mirror switches

L (left) and R (right). Push the switch once and the mirrors will fold in, push the switch a second time and the mirrors will return to the normal driving position.

If the mirror is manually folded after a powered cycle, a potential extra button push is required to get the mirrors back to the normal driving position. If the mirror does not fold automatically, check for ice or dirt build up at the pivot area, which can cause excessive drag.

Resetting The Power Folding Outside Mirrors

You may need to reset the power folding mirrors if the following occurs:

    The mirrors are accidentally blocked while folding.
    The mirrors are accidentally manually folded/unfolded (by hand or by pushing the power folding mirror switch).
    The mirrors come out of the unfolded posi- tion.
    The mirrors shake and vibrate at normal driving speeds.

To reset the power folding mirrors: Fold and unfold them by pushing the button (this may require multiple attempts). This resets them to their normal driving position.

POWER CONVEX MIRROR SWITCH — IF EQUIPPED

The Power Convex Mirror Switch is located on the door trim panel, above the power mirror controls. The switch enables the movement of the convex portion of both the driver and passenger outside mirrors.

2

To adjust the convex portion of the outside mirrors, push the Power Convex Mirror Switch. Then, select the mirror you want to adjust by using the L (left) or R (right) buttons.

To return the control to the large mirror, push the Power Convex Mirror Switch a second time.

NOTE:

If the Power Convex Mirror Switch is not pushed a second time, the switch will automatically default back to the larger portion of the outside mirrors after a period of time.

TRAILER TOWING MIRRORS — IF EQUIPPED

These mirrors are designed with an adjustable mirror head to provide a greater vision range when towing extra-wide loads. To change position inboard or outboard, the mirror head should be rotated (flipped in or out).

NOTE:

Fold the trailer towing mirrors prior to entering an automated car wash.

A small blindspot mirror is located next to the main mirror and can be adjusted manually.

HEATED MIRRORS — IF EQUIPPED

These mirrors are heated to melt frost or ice. This feature will be activated whenever you turn on the rear window defroster (if equipped) page 59.

TILT SIDE MIRRORS IN REVERSE — IF EQUIPPED

This feature provides automatic outside mirror positioning which will assist with the driver’s ground visibility. The outside mirrors will move slightly downward from the present position when the vehicle is shifted into REVERSE. The outside mirrors will then return to the original

position when the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE. If the vehicle is equipped with Driver Memory Settings, this feature will be linked to the programmable settings.

The Tilt Side Mirrors In Reverse feature can be turned on and off using the Uconnect system page 258.
