eyes, skin, clothing, or respiratory system.
In case it does, immediately flush affected
area with water, and seek medical help if

completely removed only while in the

ger-side exterior rear view mirror. The mirror
surface is convex (outwardly curved surface
for a wider field of view). Objects in mirror
are closer than they appear. Check your in-
terior rear view mirror or glance over your
shoulder before changing lanes.
