MIRRORS

Adjusting The Inside Day/Night Mirror

Adjust the mirror to center on the view through the rear
window. A two point pivot system allows for horizontal
and vertical mirror adjustment.

Automatic Dimming Mirror Feature

This mirror will automatically adjust for annoying head-
light glare from vehicles behind you. Push in the button
on the base of the mirror to activate the dimming feature.
A green light in the button will illuminate when this
feature is on.

NOTE:

This feature is most effective when left in the

ON position.

Heated Remote Control Mirrors — If Equipped

These mirrors are heated to melt frost or ice. This
feature is activated whenever you turn on the rear

window defrost.

NOTE:

On vehicles equipped with the automatic dim-

ming mirror feature, and when the dimming feature is
activated, the heated remote control mirrors will be
automatically dimmed as well.
