Inside Day/Night Rearview Mirror
To reduce glare from lights behind you,
pull the lever toward
you to the night
position.
Convex Outside Mirror
Your right side mirror is convex. A
convex mirror's surface is curved so you
can see more from the driver's seat.
CAUTION
A
If you aren't used to a convex
mirror, you can hit another
vehicle.
A convex mirror can makL
things (like other vehicles)
look
farther away than they really are- If
you cut too sharply into the rig1
lane, you could
hit a vehicle on
your right. Check your inside
mirror or glance over your
shoulder before changing lanes
Power Remote Control Mirrors
The control on the driver's door controls
both outside rearview mirrors. Turn the
control to the left to select the driver
side rearview mirror, or to the right
to
select the passenger side rearview
mirror. Then use the control
to adjust
each mirror
so that you can just see the
side of your vehicle when
you are sitting
in a comfortable driving position.
Both outside mirrors can be folded
forward or rearward.
In the rearward
position, they will fold flush with the
vehicle. This feature is particularly
useful in automatic car washes and
when maneuvering your vehicle in
narrow spaces.
