MIRRORS
INSIDE REARVIEW MIRROR
You can adjust the inside rearview mirror
by hand so as to see the rear of your ve-
hicle in the mirror. To adjust the mirror,
set the selector tab (1) to the day posi-
tion, then move the mirror up, down or
sideways by hand to obtain the best view.
When driving at night, you can move the
selector tab to the night position to re-
duce glare from the headlights of vehicles
behind you.

sition you may not be able to see
some objects that could be seen in the
day position.

If the driver’s outside rearview mirror has
the mark (2), it is also equipped with the
heated outside rearview mirrors. When
you push the switch (1), both the heated
outside rearview mirrors and the heated
rear window will operate simultaneously.
An indicator light will be lit when the de-
fogger is on. The defogger will work only
when the engine is running. To turn off the
defogger, push the switch again.
NOTE This device is regulated by a timer,
after 15 minutes it deactivates automati-
cally to preserve the battery charge.
IMPORTANT The heated rear window
and the heated outside rearview mirrors
(if equipped) use a large amount of elec-
tricity. Be sure to turn off after the win-
dow and mirrors have become clear.
