BLIND SPOT MIRRORS (IF EQUIPPED)
Blind spot mirrors have an
integrated convex spotter mirror
built into the upper outboard corner
of the outside mirrors. They are
designed to assist the driver by
increasing visibility along the side of
the vehicle.
Driving with blind spot mirrors
Before a lane change, check the
main mirror first, then check the
blind spot mirror. If no vehicles are present in the blind spot mirror and
the traffic in the adjacent lane is at a safe distance, signal that you are
going to change lanes. Glance over your shoulder to verify traffic is clear,
and carefully change lanes.
When the approaching vehicle is at
a distance, its image is small and
near the inboard edge of the main
mirror. As the vehicle approaches,
the image becomes larger and
begins to move outboard across the
main mirror. As the vehicle
approaches its image will transition
from the main mirror and begin to
appear in the Blind Spot Mirror. As
the vehicle leaves the Blind Spot
Mirror it will transition to the
driver’s peripheral field of view.
WARNING: Objects in the
blind spot mirror are closer
than they appear.

SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
