2014 FIAT FREEMONT rear view mirror

MIRRORS
INSIDE DAY/NIGHT MIRROR
A two-point pivot system allows for horizontal and
vertical adjustment of the mirror. Adjust the mirror to
center on the view through the rear window.
Headlight glare can be reduced by moving the small
control lever under the mirror to the night position
(lever flipped toward the rear of vehicle). The mirror
should be adjusted while set in the day position (to-
ward the windshield).
(fig. 43)
AUTOMATIC DIMMING MIRROR
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This mirror automatically adjusts for headlight glare
from vehicles behind you. This feature will be defaulted
on, and only be disabled when the vehicle is moving in
reverse.
(fig. 44)
To avoid damage to the mirror during
cleaning, never spray any cleaning solu-
tion directly onto the mirror. Apply the
solution onto a clean cloth and wipe the mirror
clean.

OUTSIDE MIRRORS
To receive maximum benefit, adjust the outside mir-
ror(s) to center on the adjacent lane of traffic and a
slight overlap of the view obtained from the inside
mirror.
NOTE:The passenger side convex outside mirror will
give a much wider view to the rear, and especially of the
lane next to your vehicle.
WARNING!
Vehicles and other objects seen in the
passenger si

de convex mirror will look
smaller and farther away than they really are.
Relying too much on your passenger side convex
mirror could cause you to 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. Failure
to follow this warning may result in serious injury
or death.
POWER MIRRORS
The power mirror switch is located on the driver's
door trim panel.

Glass Surfaces
All glass surfaces should be cleaned on a regular basis
with any commercial household-type glass cleaner.
Never use an abrasive type cleaner. Use caution when
cleaning the inside rear window equipped with an
electric defroster. Do not use scrapers or other sharp
instruments that may scratch the elements.
When cleaning the rear view mirror, spray cleaner on
the towel or rag that you are using. Do not spray
cleaner directly on the mirror.
Cleaning Plastic Instrument Cluster Lenses
The lenses in front of the instruments in this vehicle are
molded in clear plastic. When cleaning the lenses, care
must be taken to avoid scratching the plastic.
1. Clean with a wet soft rag. A mild soap solution maybe used, but do not use high alcohol content or
abrasive cleaners. If soap is used, wipe clean with a
clean damp rag.
2. Dry with a soft cloth. Seat Belt Maintenance
Do not bleach, dye or clean the belts with chemical
solvents or abrasive cleaners. This will weaken the
fabric. Sun damage can also weaken the fabric.
If the belts need cleaning, use a mild soap solution or
lukewarm water. Do not remove the belts from the car
to wash them. Dry with a soft cloth.
Replace the belts if they appear frayed or worn or if the
buckles do not work properly.
CLEANING THE CUP HOLDERS
Clean with a damp cloth or towel using a mild deter-
gent.
