WARNING
51)As the driver's exterior mirror is curved,
it may slightly alter the perception of
distance of the reflected image. Further, the
reflective surface of the lower part of the
exterior mirrors is parabolic to increase the
field of view. The reflected image size is
thus reduced and gives the impression that
the reflected item is further away than it
actually is.
52)Do not attempt to adjust the rear-view
mirror while driving. This can be
dangerous. Always adjust the mirror before
driving.53)Your vehicle is equipped with convex
type mirrors. Remind that objects that you
see in the mirror will look smaller and
farther away compared to a normal flat
mirror. Do not use this mirror to estimate
distance of following vehicles when
changing lanes.
54)Do not drive the vehicle with the mirror
folded in. The lack of rearward visibility
normally provided by the mirror could lead
to an accident.
IMPORTANT
16)It is possible to retract and extend the
mirrors by hand. After retracting a mirror
using the mirror retractor switch, however,
you should extend it by using the switch
again, not by hand. If you extended the
mirror by hand after retracting it using the
switch, it would not properly lock in
position. As a result, it could move because
of the wind or vibration while you are
driving, taking away your rearward visibility.
