Mirrors
Inside Day/Night Rearview Mirror with
Reading Lamps
The inside rearview mirror is attached to your vehicle's
front windshield glass. If you do not have a sunroof,
your vehicle's inside rearview mirror may be equipped
with reading lamps. If your vehicle is equipped with
this mirror, there are two buttons located on the bottom
of the mirror. Press the buttons to turn the lamps on
and press them again to turn the lamps off. Be sure to
turn off the reading lamps to avoid draining your
vehicle's battery.

The mirror moves so that you can adjust it up and down
or side to side. You can adjust the mirror for day or night
driving. Pull the tab for night driving to reduce glare.
Push the tab for daytime driving.
Power Remote Control Rearview Mirrors
These controls are
located to the left of
your steering wheel on
the instrument panel.
To adjust either mirror, push the button labeled L (left)
or R (right). Then use the arrows on the control pad to
adjust the mirror.
Once you have adjusted both mirrors, move the selector
switch back to the center. This prevents moving the
mirrors accidentally once you have adjusted them.

Driving at Night
Night driving is more dangerous than day driving.
One reason is that some drivers are likely to be
impaired
-- by alcohol or drugs, with night vision
problems, or by fatigue.Here are some tips on night driving.

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.

Highway Hypnosis
Is there actually such a condition as ªhighway
hypnosisº? Or is it just plain falling asleep at
the wheel? Call it highway hypnosis, lack of awareness,
or whatever.
There is something about an easy stretch of road with
the same scenery, along with the hum of the tires on the
road, the drone of the engine, and the rush of the wind
against the vehicle that can make you sleepy. Don't let it
happen to you! If it does, your vehicle can leave the
road in less than a second, and you could crash and
be injured.
What can you do about highway hypnosis? First, be
aware that it can happen.
Then here are some tips:

Make sure your vehicle is well ventilated, with a
comfortably cool interior.

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.
Hill and Mountain Roads
Driving on steep hills or mountains is different from
driving in flat or rolling terrain.
