Outside mirrors
Outside mirrors
Objects viewed in the outside mirror on the passenger side are closer than they appear. Be careful when moving to the right. Using only this mirror could cause an accident. Use the inside mirror or glance over your shoulder to properly judge distances to other objects.
Adjusting outside mirrors
The outside mirror control switch is located on the left side of the instrument panel.
The outside mirror will operate only when the ignition switch is in the ACC or ON position.
Turn the switch right or left to select the right or left side mirror, then adjust using the control switch.
Defrosting outside mirrors (if so equipped)
The outside mirrors will be heated when the rear window defroster switch is operated.
Foldable outside mirrors
Fold the outside mirror by pushing it toward the rear of the vehicle.
