Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Rearview Mirror Reading Lamps
These lamps go on when you open the doors. When
the doors are closed, turn the lamps
on and off with
the switches.
Battery Saver
Your vehicle has a feature to help prevent you from
draining the battery, in case you accidentally leave the
courtesy lamps on.
If you leave the dial turned all the
way up, or
if you leave a door open, the lamps will
automatically turn
off after 10 minutes if the ignition
is
off.
This feature will not turn off the reading lamps, only
the lamps controlled by the dial. Be sure to turn
off
any reading lamps using the switch before you leave
the vehicle.
Mirrors
Adjust all the mirrors so you can see clearly when you
are sitting in a comfortable driving position.

To reduce glare from headlamps behind you, push the
lever forward (to the night position).
To return the
mirror to the day position, pull the lever toward you.
Power Outside Mirrors
Convex Outside Mirror
The power mirror control is
on the driver’s door. Turn
the control to the left to
adjust the
left mirror or to
the right
to adjust the right
mirror. Then move the
control in the direction you
want to
move the mirror.
Your passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror’s surface is curved
so you can see more from the
driver’s seat.
I
I A CAUTION:
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.

1. Move the driver’s seat to its most rearward position.
2. Locate the driver’s side floor mat in the vehicle with
the rear of the mat against the left (outboard) front
edge of the seat track mounting bracket (see view
A).
3. Use a screwdriver to screw the locator post into the
vehicle’s carpeting. Press down while turning to
allow the locator “auger point” to pierce the floor
carpet. The locator will not screw down tightly, but
will rotate freely when installed properly.

Drive defensively.
Don’t drink and drive.
Adjust your inside rearview mirror to reduce the
glare from headlamps behind
you.
Since you can’t see as well, you may need to
slow down and keep more space between you and
other vehicles.
Slow down, especially on higher speed roads. Your
headlamps can light up only
so much road ahead.
In remote areas, watch for animals.
If you’re tired, pull off the road in a safe place
and rest.
Night Vision
No one can see as well at night as in the daytime. But as
we get older these differences increase.
A 50-year-old
driver may require at least twice as much light to see the
same thing at night as a 20-year-old.
What you do in the daytime can also affect your night
vision. For example,
if you spend the day in bright
sunshine you are wise to wear sunglasses. Your eyes will
have less trouble adjusting to night. But
if you’re
driving, don’t wear sunglasses at night. They may cut down
on glare
from headlamps, but they also make a lot
of things invisible.
You can be temporarily blinded by approaching
headlamps. It can take a second or two, or even several
seconds, for your eyes to readjust to the dark. When you
are faced with severe glare (as from a driver who
doesn’t lower the high beams, or a vehicle with
misaimed headlamps), slow down a little. Avoid staring
directly into the approaching headlamps.
Keep your windshield and all the glass on your vehicle
clean
-- inside and out. Glare at night is made much
worse by dirt
on the glass. Even the inside of the glass
can build up a film caused by dust. Dirty glass makes
lights dazzle and flash more than clean glass would,
making the pupils of your eyes contract repeatedly.
Remember that your headlamps light up far
less of a
roadway when
you are in a turn or curve. Keep your
eyes moving; that way, it’s easier to pick out dimly
lighted objects. Just as your headlamps should be
checked regularly for proper aim,
so should your eyes
be examined regularly. Some drivers suffer from night
blindness
-- the inability to see in dim light -- and
aren’t even aware of
it.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Highway Hypnosis Hill and Mountain Roads
Keep your eyes moving. Scan the road ahead and to
the sides. Check your rearview mirrors and your
instruments frequently.
If you get sleepy, pull off the road into a rest, service
or parking area and take a nap, get some exercise, or
both. For safety, treat drowsiness on the highway as
an emergency. Driving
on steep hills
or mountains is different from
driving in flat or rolling terrain.
