Outside Curb View Assist Mirrors

when you are parallel parking. When the vehicle is
shifted out of REVERSE (R) and a short delay
has occurred, the passenger’s and/or driver’s mirror will
return to its original position.
To change the preselected tilt position, adjust the
mirrors to the desired position while the vehicle is in
REVERSE (R). When the vehicle is shifted out of
REVERSE (R), this new position is saved in memory as
the tilt position.
You may be able to enable/disable this feature through
the Driver Information Center. SeeDriver Information
Center (DIC) on page 3-56.
