mirror. The mirror should be adjusted while set in the
day position (toward windshield).

be reduced by moving the small control under the mirror
to the night position (toward rear of vehicle).

overlap of the view obtained on the inside mirror.

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 objects. Use your inside mirror when
judging the size or distance of a vehicle seen in the
right side mirror.
