convex mirror will look smaller and farther away
than they really are. Relying too much on your

collide with another vehicle or other object. Use your
inside mirror when judging the size or distance of a
vehicle seen in the passenger-side convex mirror.
Outside Mirrors Folding Feature — If Equipped

hinge allows the mirror to pivot forward and rearward to

position when the vehicle is shifted out of the REVERSE
position. Each stored memory setting will have an asso-
ciated Tilt Mirrors in Reverse position.
