Mirrors
Adjusting the Power Mirrors
Adjust the outside mirrors with the adjustment switch on the driver'sdoor armrest:
1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
2. Move the selector switch to L (driver's side) or R (passenger's
side).
3. Push the appropriate edge of the
adjustment switch to move the
mirror right, left, up or down.
4. When you finish, move the selector switch to the center (off)
position. This turns off the
adjustment switch so you can't
move a mirror out of position by
accidentally bumping it. The outside mirror on the passenger's
side has curved glass. Objects look
farther away than they are. Use this mirror to get a "wide view". Don't
use it to judge the distance of things
behind you.
