Cadillac 2006 DTS Automobile User Manual


 
Outside Automatic Dimming Mirror
If the vehicle is equipped with this feature, the
driver’s side mirror will adjust for the glare of headlamps
behind you. This feature is controlled by the on and
off settings on the automatic dimming rearview mirror.
Outside Curb View Assist Mirror
If your vehicle is equipped with memory mirrors, it will
also be capable of performing the curb view assist mirror
feature. This feature will allow the driver’s and
passenger’s side mirror to tilt to a factory programmed
position when the vehicle is in REVERSE (R). This
feature may be useful in allowing you to view the curb
when you are parallel parking.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R) and a
five-second delay has occurred, the driver’s and
passenger’s side mirror will return to its original position.
If further adjustment is needed after the mirror is
tilted, the mirror switch may be used.
This feature can be enabled/disabled through the Driver
Information Center (DIC).
Outside Convex Mirror
{CAUTION:
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.
The passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror’s surface is curved so more can be seen from
the driver’s seat. This mirror does not have a
dimming feature.
Outside Heated Mirrors
When you operate the rear window defogger, it also
warms both outside mirrors to help clear them of fog or
ice. See Dual Climate Control System on page 3-44
for more information.
