repeatedly.
! When you leave your seat, do not place
anything on the seat and switch off the seat
heating. Do not switch the seat heating on

reduce the size of the image. Objects visible
in the mirrors are closer than they appear. You
could misjudge the distance from road users
driving behind you when changing lanes, for
instance. There is a risk of an accident.

actual distance from road users driving
behind you, e.g.:
R by looking over your shoulder
R by looking in the main mirror in the exterior
mirror.
