Automatic Inside Rearview Mirror
During the daylight it's like the standard mirror. But at night the system
goes to work.
During the day the mirror reflects
all the light from behind your car. At
night, when the glare
is too high, it darkens to reflect only part of the light
behind you. When
the mirror darkens, it holds that position until the
glare
is no longer present.

Your automatic rearview mirror has different positions for light
sensitivity. At the
"MAX" setting, bright headlights far away will cause
the mirror to gradually darken. This is a good setting for rural driving. At
the
"MIN' setting, bright headlights have to be rather close for the
mirror to darken. This is a good setting for city driving.

judgment, or a brief surrender to frustration or anger can suddenly put
the passing driver face to face
with the worst of all traffic accidents -- the
head-on collision.
So here are some tips for passing:

a
“Drive ahead.” Look down the road, to the sides, and to crossroads
for situations that might affect your passing patterns.
If you have any
doubt whatsoever about making
a successful pass, wait for a better
time.
Watch
for traffic signs, pavement markings, and lines. If you can see a
sign up ahead that might indicate a turn or an intersection, delay your
pass.
A broken center line usually indicates it’s all right to pass
(providing the road ahead is clear). Never cross a solid line on your
side of the lane or a double solid line, even
if the road seems empty of
approaching traffic.
If you suspect that the driver of the vehicle you want
to pass isn’t
aware
of your presence, tap the horn a couple of times before passing.
Do not get too close to the vehicle you want to pass while you’re
awaiting an opportunity.
For one thing, following too closely reduces
your area of vision, especially
if you’re following a larger vehicle. Also,
you won’t have adequate space if the vehicle ahead suddenly slows or
stops. Keep back a reasonable distance.
When it looks like a chance to pass
is coming up, start to accelerate
but stay in the right lane and don’t get too close. Time your move so
you will be increasing speed as the time comes to move into the other
lane.
If the way is clear to pass, you will have a “running start” that
more than makes up for the distance you would
lose by dropping back.
And if something happens to cause you to cancel your pass, you need
only slow down and drop back again and wait for another opportunity.
If other cars are lined up to pass a slow vehicle, wait your turn. But
take care that someone isn’t trying to pass
you as you pull out to pass
the
slow vehicle. Remember to glance over your shoulder and check
the blind spot.
Check your mirrors
, glance over your shoulder, and start your left
lane change signal before moving out of the right lane to pass. When
you are far enough ahead of the passed vehicle to see its front in your
