Your passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror’s surface is curved
so you can see more from the
driver’s seat.

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.

Open the center console lid all the way to uncover the
front and rear cupholders. There is also a cupholder at
the front of the console.
Convenience Net (Option)
Your vehicle may have a convenience net. You’ll see it
just inside the back wall
of the trunk. Put small loads,
like grocery bags, behind the net. It can help keep them
from falling over during sharp turns or quick starts and
stops. Unclip a corner of the convenience net to fit
larger objects behind
the net, then reclip it to secure
them in place.
The net isn’t
for larger, heavier loads. Store them in the
trunk as far forward as you can.
You can unhook the net
so that it will lie flat when
you’re not using
it.

for the driver. This retainer is located at the rear, right
side of the floor mat.
To remove, twist the tab
