Warning! G
Exercise care when using the passen-
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
interior rear view mirror or glance over your
shoulder before changing lanes.
!
If an exterior rear view mirror was forcibly
pushed forward (hit from the rear) or forcibly
pushed rearward (hit from the front), reposition
it by applying firm pressure until it snaps into
place. The mirror housing is now properly posi-
tioned and you can adjust the mirror normally.
i
The memory function (page 127) lets you
store the setting for the exterior rear view mir-
rors together with the settings for the steering
wheel and the driver’s seat position.
i
At low ambient temperatures, the exterior
rear view mirrors will be heated automatically.
