Be sure to continue scanning your displays, controls and driving environment just as you would in a vehicle without HUD. If you never look at your instrument panel, you may not see something important, such as a warning light. Notice: If you try to use the HUD image as a parking aid, you may misjudge the distance and damage your vehicle. Do not use the HUD image as a parking aid. The HUD controls are located in the overhead console. 1. Start your engine and slide the HUD dimmer switch all the way up. The brightness of the HUD image is determined by whether the headlamps are on or off, and where you have the HUD dimmer switch set. 2. Adjust the seat to a comfortable driving position. Keep pressing the top arrow on the image height adjuster to raise the image as far as possible. 3. Keep pressing the bottom arrow on the image height adjuster to move the image as low as possible, while still keeping it in full view. 4. Slide the dimmer switch downward until the HUD image is no brighter than necessary. To turn the HUD display off, slide the dimmer switch all the way down. If the sun comes out, the sky becomes cloudy, or if you turn your headlamps on, you may need to adjust the HUD brightness using the dimmer switch. Polarized sunglasses could make the HUD image harder to see. To change the display from English to metric units, push the ENG/MET button located to the left of the steering column. 3-19
