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.
WARNING!
Vehicles and other objects seen in the pas-
senger side convex mirror will look smaller
and farther away than they really are. Relying
too much on your passenger side mirror could
cause you to collide with another vehicle or
other object. Use your inside mirror when
judging the size or distance of a vehicle seen
in the passenger side mirror.
Power Mirrors
The power mirror controls are 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 Features” in
“Understanding the Features of Your Vehicle”
for further information.
Power Folding Mirrors
The driver and passenger side mirrors can be
folded, using the power mirror switch.
