24 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

MIRRORS
INSIDE DAY/NIGHT MIRROR —
I
F EQUIPPED
A two-point pivot system allows for horizontal
and vertical adjustment of the mirror. Adjust the
mirror to center on the view through the rear
window.
Headlight glare can be reduced by moving the
small control under the mirror to the night
position (toward the rear of the vehicle). The
mirror should be adjusted while set in the day
position (toward the windshield).
Adjusting Rearview Mirror
OUTSIDE MIRRORS
To receive maximum benefit, adjust the outside
mirror(s) to center on the adjacent lane of traffic
with a slight overlap of the view obtained on the
inside mirror.
Outside Mirrors Folding Feature
All outside mirrors are hinged and may be
moved either forward or rearward to resist
damage. The hinges have three detent
positions:
Full forward position
Full rearward position
Normal position
WARNING!
Do not adjust the steering column while
driving. Adjusting the steering column while
driving or driving with the steering column
unlocked, could cause the driver to lose
control of the vehicle. Failure to follow this
warning may result in serious injury or death.
WARNING!
Vehicles and other objects seen in an outside
convex mirror will look smaller and farther
away than they really are. Relying too much
on side convex mirrors could cause you to
collide with another vehicle or other object.
Use your inside mirror when judging the size
or distance of a vehicle seen in a side convex
mirror.
