Adjust the driver’s side outside mirror with the control
lever on the drives’s door.
To adjust your passenger’s side mirror, sit in the driver’s
seat and have a passenger adjust the mirror for you.
Power Remote Control Mirrors (Option)
A control lever on the
driver’s door controls both
outside rearview mirrors.
Turn the lever to the left to select the driver’s side
rearview mirror,
or to the right to select the passenger’s
side rearview
mirror. Then push the lever in the
direction of
the desired movement to adjust each mirror
so that you can see the side of the vehicle when you are
sitting in
a comfortable driving position.
Convex Outside 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.
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.
Storage Compartments
Glove Box
Use the door key to lock and unlock the glove box. To
open, lift the latch release on the left side of the glove
box door.
