Mirrors
The mirror on the passenger's
side features a lens with a convex
surface. When estimating the distance
between yourself and other traffic, bear
in mind that the objects reflected in the
mirror are closer than they appear. This
means that estimates of the distance to
following traffic should not be regarded
as precise.<
Electric defrosting
*
Both mirrors are defrosted automa-
tically when the ignition key is in
position 2.
Interior rearview mirrorTo reduce the glare effect from the rear
while driving at night, tilt the mirror by
moving the small lever.Vanity mirrorsFold the sun visors down and push the
