Outside Mirror — Driver Side
Adjust the flat outside mirror so you can just see
the side of your vehicle in the part of the mirror
closest to the vehicle with your head close to the
door glass.
Outside Mirror — Passenger Side
Adjust the convex outside mirror so you can just
see the side of your vehicle in the part of the
mirror closest to the vehicle with your head
close to the center of the vehicle.
WARNING!
Vehicles and other objects seen in the pas-
senger side convex mirror will look smaller
and farther away than they really are. Rely-
ing too much on your passenger side mirror
could cause you to collide with another ve-
hicle or other object. Use your inside mirror
when judging the size or distance of a ve-
hicle seen in this convex mirror.
Folding Outside Mirrors
The outside mirrors are hinged and may be
moved, manually, either forward or rearward to
resist damage. The hinges have three detent
positions; full forward, full rearward and normal.
Power Mirrors
The power mirror control is located on the
driver’s door trim panel.
To adjust a mirror, turn the control wand toward
the left or right mirror positions indicated. Tilt the
control wand in the direction you want the mirror
to move.
When you are finished adjusting the mirror, turn
the control to the center position to prevent
accidentally moving a mirror.
Heated Mirrors — If Equipped
These mirrors are heated to melt frost
or ice. This feature is activated when-
ever you turn on the rear window de-
froster. Refer to “Rear Window Fea-
tures” in “Understanding the Features of Your
