NOTE:Place the mirror switch in the neutral (center)
position to prevent accidental changing of the mirror
setting.
Supplemental Indicators — 300M Special Only
The 300M Special is equipped with Supplemental Indi-
cators on each of the side mirrors. When using the
Multifunction Control lever to signal, small lights in the
side outside mirrors will flash designating the direction
of the turn.
Mirror Adjustment
Outside Mirror — Driver’s Side
Adjust the outside mirror to center on the adjacent lane of
traffic, with a slight overlap of the view obtained on the
inside mirror.
Right Side Mirror
Adjust the convex outside mirror so you can just see the
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.
WARNING!
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
the vehicle is placed in reverse. Once reverse is disen-
gaged, the driver’s exterior mirror will return to it’s
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.
3. Release the Set button and the horizontal seat switch.
