Before driving, adjust the inside and
outside mirrors.
▼Outside Mirrors
WA R N I N G

Changing lanes without taking into
account the actual distance of the vehicle
in the convex mirror is dangerous. You
could have a serious accident. What you
see in the convex mirror is closer than it
appears.
Mirror type

Flat surface mirror.
Convex type (passenger side)
The mirror has single curvature on its
surface.
Power mirror adjustment
The ignition must be switched to ACC or

To adjust:
1. Rotate the mirror switch to the left
or
right
to choose the left or right side
mirror.
2. Press the mirro r switch in the
appropriate direction.
Center position

After adjusting the mirror, lock the control
by rotating the switch in the center

Folding mirror
WA R N I N G
Always return the outside mirrors to the
driving position before you start driving:

restricted, and you could have an accident.
Manually fold the outside mirror rearward
until it is flush with the vehicle.
