Inadvertent Power Battery Saver
This feature is designed to protect your vehicle's
battery against drainage from the interior lamps,
trunk
lamp, glove box lamp, cigarette lighters or the
garage door opener. When the ignition is turned off,
the power to these features will automatically turn off
after 10 minutes (three minutes if a new car has 15 miles
(24
km)
or less). Power will be restored for an additional
10 minutes if any door is opened, the trunk is opened or
the courtesy lamp switch is turned on.
Storage Mode Personalization
This feature is for long term use and must be
programmed through the Driver Information Center
(DIC) while the ignition is in RUN. Storage mode
personalization protects the battery by placing your
vehicle in a storage mode so that the radio, amplifiers,
instrument cluster and remote keyless entry will not
drain
the battery over a long period of time. For
programming information, see "Programmable, Memory
and Personalization Features" later in this section.
Mirrors
Electrochromic Daymight Rearview Mirror
When this feature is turned on, the mirror automatically
changes to reduce glare from headlamps behind you. A
photocell on the mirror senses when it is becoming dark
outside. Another photocell, built into the mirror face,
senses when headlamps are behind you.
At night, when the glare is too high, the mirror will
gradually darken to reduce glare (this change may take a
few seconds). The mirror will return to its clear daytime
state when.the glare is reduced.
