light glare from vehicles behind you.
Whenever the shift lever is shifted

order to improve the drivers view
behind the vehicle. When the ignition switch is ON, the

paper towel or similar material
dampened with glass cleaner. Do not
spray glass cleaner directly on the
mirror as that may cause the liquid
cleaner to enter the mirror housing.1LDA2078
