With the electronic key in steering lock
position 2, the driver's side mirror
reflection brightness responds to
changes in light sensitivity.

"R", or with the interior lamp switched

Warning!
Exercise care when using the
passenger-side mirror. The
passenger-side exterior mirror is
convex (outwardly curved surface
for a wider field of view). Objects in
mirror are closer than they appear.
Check your inside rear view mirror
or glance over your shoulder before
changing lanes.
Note:
The exterior mirrors have electrically
heated glass. The heater switches on
automatically, depending on outside
temperature.
If an exterior mirror housing is forcibly
pivoted from its normal position, it
must be repositioned by applying firm
pressure until it snaps into place.
Storing Mirror Positions in
Memory
The exterior rear view mirror positions
are stored in memory with the
seat/head restraint position and can be
recalled when necessary, see Index.
