Press and release the TEMP switch to toggle the

Electrochromic Mirror Operation
The right side of the switch, labeled TEMP, located at
the bottom of the mirror turns the electrochromic inside
and outside mirrors on and off. An indicator light,
located to the right of the TEMP switch, will come on
when the electrochromic mirrors are turned on. To turn
the mirrors on, press and hold the TEMP button for six
seconds. To turn the mirrors off, press and hold the
TEMP button for six seconds. The indicator light will
turn off.
Compass Operation
Press the COMP switch once briefly to turn the compass
on or off.
When the ignition and the compass feature are on, the
compass will show two character boxes for
approximately two seconds. After two seconds, the
mirror will display the compass heading.
2-48
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.
Compass Calibration
If, after two seconds, the display does not show a
compass heading ("N" for North, for example), there
may be a strong magnetic field interfering with the
compass. Such interference may be caused by a
magnetic antenna mount, magnetic note pad holder
or a similar magnetic item. If the letter "C" should ever
appear in the compass window, the mirror may
need calibration.
The mirror can be calibrated in one of two ways:
D
Drive the vehicle in circles at five mph (8 km/h) or
less until the display reads a direction, or
D
Drive the vehicle on your everyday routine and after
several turns the compass will become calibrated and
will display a direction.
