condensation when the rear window defogger is turned
on. See “Rear Window Defogger” under Climate

To return the mirror to its original position, push
outward. Be sure to return the mirrors to their original
unfolded position before driving.

A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder
before changing lanes.
