Setting the Sensitivity:
MIN: The mirror will gradually reduce
glare when headlights behind you are
very close. This is a good position for
city driving, where there may be light
from many sources.
MAX: The mirror will begin to
gradually reduce glare when headlights
are far behind you. This is
a good
setting for rural driving.
The mirror goes to a clear position whenever you shift to
R (Reverse).
OFF: Shuts off the Day/Night function.
The mirror will stay
in the Day setting.
To keep the photocells operating well,
occasionally clean them with
a cotton
swab and glass cleaner.
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.
r
- If you aren’t used to a convex I
- mirror, you can hit another
vehicle.
A convex mirror can make
things (like other vehicles)
look
farther away than they really are. If
you cut too sharply into the right
lane,
you could hit a vehicle on
your right. Check your inside
mirror or glance over your
shoulder before changing lanes.
I
Manual Remote Control Mirror
The outside rearview mirror should be
adjusted
so you can just see the side of
your vehicle when you are sitting in a
comfortable driving position.
Adjust the driver side outside mirror
with the control lever
on the driver’s
door.
To adjust your passenger side mirror, sit
in the driver’s seat and have a passenger
adjust the mirror for you.

Features & Controls
Power Remote Control Mirrors
(OPTION)
A control lever on the driver's door
controls both outside rearview mirrors.
Select the mirror you want to adjust
by
rotating the lever to the left or right.
Adjust each mirror
so that you can just
see the side of your vehicle
when you
are sitting
in a comfortable driving
position.
When you operate the optional rear
window defogger, the outside rearview
mirrors are also heated to help clear
them of ice and snow.
Sun Visors
To block out glare, you can swing down
the visors. You can also remove them
from the center mount and swing them
to the side, while the auxiliary sunshade
remains to block glare from the front.

Fuels in Foreign Countries
tf you plan on driving in another
country outside the
U.S. or Canada,
unleaded fuel may be hard to find.
Do not use leaded gasoline. If you use
even one tankful, your emission controls
won’t work well or at all. With
continuous use, spark plugs can get
fouled, the exhaust system can corrode,
and your engine oil can deteriorate
quickly. Your vehicle’s oxygen sensor
will be damaged. All of that means
costly repairs that wouldn’t be covered
by your warranty. To
check on fuel availability, ask an auto
club, or contact a major oil company
that does business in the country where
you’ll be driving.
You can also write us at the following
address for advice. Just tell us where
you’re going and give your Vehicle
Identification Number (VIN).
