AND EQUIPMENT
� WARNING
•
The right hand outside mirror
has a convex (curved) surface. Re­
member that vehicles or other ob­
jects seen in a convex mirror will
appear smaller and farther away
than when seen in a flat mirror. If
you use this mirror to estimate dis­
tances of following vehicles when
changing lanes, you could esti­
mate incorrectly and cause an ac­
cident.
•
Whenever possible, use the in­
side mirror to determine the actual
distance and size of vehicles or
other objects seen in the convex
mirror.
Adjusting the outside mirrors
With the ignition on, both outside mirrors
can be adjusted.
Turn the knob to switch over between the
left and right outside mirrors.
L - left-hand mirror
R - right-hand mirror
0 -
off
A - Folding back both outside mirrors*
It's a good idea to fold the outside mirrors ­
for example, when you must park the car in
tight quarters.
Press the knob in the appropriate direction
(arrows) to move the mirror surface.
Note
•
If
the electrical adjustment of the mirror
should not respond, adjust the mirror by
hand by pushing lightly on the edge of the
mirror glass.
•
At low outside temperatures the heated
outside mirrors are activated automati­
cally when the ignition is switched on.
