Rear view mirror
 Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Interior mirror dimming

Exterior mirrors
78WARNINGExterior mirrors increase the field of view, however, make objects appear
smaller and further away. Therefore, use the rear-view mirror to determine
the distances to the following vehicles. 77Lights and visibility

WARNING■The mirrors with automatic dimming contain electrolyte fluid which may
leak if the mirror glass is broken - this can irritate skin, eyes and the respi-
ratory system.■
If your eyes or skin come into contact with the electrolyte fluid, immedi-
ately wash the affected area for a few minutes with plenty of water. Seek
medical assistance if required.

vice can affect the function of the rear-view mirror - it could cause an acci-
dent.■
