<yawn>

Holding the unlock button down should drop all four windows and open your sunroof. There is no remote feature to make them close....safety first, kids.

There's a toggle switch right next to where your side mirror heat button is located (right to the right of the VSA button). Toggle right, your right mirror tilts when in reverse. Toggle left, your left mirror tilts when in reverse. Middle setting, nothing happens.

You cannot close the windows by using the remote, but if you put the key in the door lock cylinder, and turn it to the left (locking) position twice, the windows and sunroof will close. It is a safety thing, so they say.

The left or right mirror will tilt when the mirror adjustment knob is set for either the left or right mirror, to assist you in parking when backing in to a space. If the knob is in the center (do nothing) position, the mirrors will not tilt.

EDIT: You beat me to it by a minute, but obviously, I agree with you, tripp11, but I forgot the "yawn"

I agree, but:

lazy, lethargic, lackadaisical people need answers too

even those who start with "I am too lazy to search or read the manual"

while I agree with you, I feel that this is a forum with good intentions, so we must help those who will not or cannot help themselves

there are those who have difficulty comprehending official things like manuals, so we must help those people also

my avatar says it all, but who looks at that
