side of your vehicle. This type of mirror will give a much
wider view to the rear, and especially of the lane next to
your vehicle.

Vehicles and other objects seen in the right side
convex mirror will look smaller and farther away
than they really are. Relying too much on your right
side mirror could cause you to collide with another
vehicle or other object. Use your inside mirror when
judging the size or distance of a vehicle seen in this
convex mirror.
Mirror Tilt in Reverse
This feature will tilt the driver’s exterior mirror down-
ward to improve visibility of the rear wheel area when

original position.
This feature can be turned on or off by performing the
following procedure:
1. Press and hold the Set button.
2. Move the horizontal seat switch forward.
