Outside Automatic Dimming Mirror
Vehicles with this feature have a driver outside
mirror that adjusts for the glare of headlamps behind
you. SeeAutomatic Dimming Rearview Mirror on
page 2-52for more information.
Park Tilt Mirrors
Vehicles with the memory package have a passenger
and/or driver mirror that tilts to a preselected position

Center (DIC). SeeDIC Vehicle Customization (With
DIC Buttons) on page 3-74for more information.
Outside Convex Mirror
{CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are. If
you cut too sharply into the right lane, you could
hit a vehicle on the right. Check the inside mirror
or glance over your shoulder before changing
lanes.
The passenger side mirror is convex shaped. A convex
mirror’s surface is curved so more can be seen from
the driver seat.
