WARNING
●
Conv
ex (wide-angle) rear vision mirrors give
a larger field of vision. However, they make
objects appear smaller and further away than
they really are. For this reason, you should
not rely on these rear vision mirrors for judg-
ing the dis
tance of vehicle behind.
●
If possible, use the interior rear vision mir-
ror to estimate distances to vehicles behind
you.
Note
●
Ext
erior mirror
s are only heated when the
engine is running.
●
Do not touch the exterior mirrors when the
heating system is running.
●
If the electrical adjustment should ever fail
to operate, the rear vision mirrors can be ad-
justed by hand by pressing the edge of the
mirror glass.
●
Visit the technical service in the event of a
fault in the electrical rear vision mirror ad-
justment system.
