Convenient features of your vehicle

Tilt Steering / Telescope Steering
Adjust the steering wheel so it points toward your chest, not toward your face. Make sure you can see the instrument cluster warning lights and gauges. Always adjust the position of the steering wheel before driving.

To change the steering wheel angle and height:

• Move the switch (1) up and down to adjust the angle (2).
• Move the switch forward or rearward to adjust the height (3).
  NOTICE
  Do not adjust the steering wheel longer than necessary when the engine is turned off. This may result in unnecessary battery drain.
•  

Horn
To sound the horn, press the area indicated by the horn symbol on your steering wheel (see illustration). The horn will operate only when this area is pressed.

NOTICE
Do not strike the horn severely to operate it, or hit it with your fist. Do not press on the horn with a sharp-pointed object.

MIRRORS

Inside Rearview Mirror
Before you start driving, adjust the rearview mirror to the center on the view through the rear window.

WARNING

• Make sure your line of sight is not obstructed. Do not place objects in the rear seat, cargo area, or behind the rear head-rests which could interfere with your vision through the rear window.
• To prevent serious injury during an accident or deployment of the air bag, do not modify the rearview mirror and do not install a wide mirror.
• NEVER adjust the mirror while driving. This may cause loss of vehicle control resulting in an accident.

NOTICE
When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or similar material dampened with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the mirror as that may cause the liquid cleaner to enter the mirror housing.

Automatic-Dimming Night Vision Safety™ (NVS®) Mirror (if equipped)
The NVS® Mirror automatically reduces glare by monitoring light levels in the front and the rear of the vehicle. Any object that obstructs either light sensor will degrade the automatic dimming control feature.
For more information regarding NVS® mirrors and other applications, please refer to the Gentex website: www.gentex.com
Your mirror will automatically dim upon detecting glare from the vehicles traveling behind you.
The mirror defaults to the ON position each time the vehicle is started.
Z-Nav™ Compass Display
The NVS™ Mirror in your vehicle is also equipped with a Z-Nav™ Compass that shows the vehicle Compass heading in the Display Window using the 8 basic cardinal headings (N, NE, E, SE, etc.).

Compass function
The Compass can be turned ON and OFF, but it returns to ON after the ignition is cycled.

1. Press and release the Control Button within 1 second to turn the display feature OFF.
2. Press and release the Control Button again within 1 second to turn the display back ON.
   Additional options can be set with press and hold sequences of the Control Button and are detailed below.

Information
Press the control button in the hole with a pointed object, such as the tip of a ballpoint pen or similar object.
There is a difference between magnetic north and true north. To compensate for this difference you will need to adjust the Zone setting based on where you live.

To adjust the Zone setting:

1. Determine the desired Zone Number based on your current location on the Zone Map.
2. Press and hold the Control Button for up to 6 seconds, the current Zone Number will appear on the display.
3. Release and press the Control Button and then hold the Control Button again will cause the numbers to increment (Note: they will repeat …13, 14, 15, 1, 2, …). Releasing the button when the desired Zone Number appears on the display will set the new Zone.
4. Within about 5 seconds the compass will start displaying a compass heading again.

Some conditions can cause changes to the vehicle magnets, such as installing a ski rack or a CB antenna. Body repair work on the vehicle can also cause changes to the vehicle’s magnetic field. In these situations, the compass will need to be re-calibrated to quickly correct these changes.
If you need to recalibrate the compass:

1. Press and hold the Control Button for more than 6 seconds. When the compass memory is cleared, a “C” will appear in the display.
2. Drive the vehicle in 2 complete circles at less than 5 mph (8 km/h).

Integrated HomeLink® Wireless Control System
The HomeLink® Wireless Control System can replace up to three hand-held radio-frequency (RF) transmitters with a single built-in device. This innovative feature will learn the radio frequency codes of most current transmitters to operate devices such as gate operators, garage door openers, entry door locks, security systems, even home lighting. Both standard and rolling code-equipped transmitters can be programmed by following the out-lined procedures.
Additional HomeLink® information can be found at: www.homelink.com, www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by calling 1-800-355-3515.
Retain the original transmitter of the RF device you are programming for use in other vehicles as well as for future HomeLink® programming. It is also suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink® buttons be erased for security purposes.

WARNING
Before programming HomeLink® to a garage door opener or gate operator, make sure people and objects are out of the way of the device to prevent potential harm or damage. Do not use the HomeLink® with any garage door opener that lacks the safety stop and reverse features required by U.S. federal safety standards (this includes any garage door opener model manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door that can-not detect an object – signaling the door to stop and reverse -does not meet current U.S. feder-al safety standards. Using a garage door opener without these features increases the risk of serious injury or death.

Programming HomeLink®
Please note the following:

• When programming a garage door opener, it is advised to park the vehicle outside of the garage.
• It is recommended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLink® for quicker training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
• Some vehicles may require the ignition switch to be placed in the ACC (or “Accessories”) position for programming and/or operation of HomeLink®.
• In the event that there are still programming difficulties or questions after following the programming steps listed below, contact HomeLink® at: www.homelink.com, www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by calling 1-800-355-3515.
