Side View Mirrors
OTM048015
Your vehicle is equipped with both left-
hand and right-hand Side view mirrors.

back directly to determine the actual

to your desired position before you begin
driving.
WARNING
Do not adjust or fold the side view
mirrors while driving. This may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.

this may damage the surface of the
glass.

[ If the mirror is jammed with ice, do
not adjust the mirror by force. Use
an approved de-icer (not radiator
antifreeze) spray, or a sponge or soft
cloth with very warm water, or move
the vehicle to a warm place and
allow the ice to melt.

[ Do not clean the mirror with harsh
abrasives, fuel or other petroleum
based cleaning products.
