Outside Curb View Assist Mirror

The passenger’s side mirror is also capable of
performing the curb view assist feature. This feature
will cause the mirror to tilt to a factory programmed
position when the vehicle is in REVERSE (R).
This feature may be useful in allowing you to view the
curb when you are parallel parking.

If further adjustment is needed after the mirror is tilted,
the mirror switch may be used. The mirror will then
return to this new position when the vehicle is shifted
into REVERSE (R).

When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R) and
a five-second delay has occurred, the passenger’s side
mirror will return to its original position.

This feature can be enabled/disabled through the Driver
Information Center (DIC). See “Park Assist” under
DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-78 for more
information.

Outside Convex Mirror

{

CAUTION:

A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder
before changing lanes.

The passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex mirror’s
surface is curved so more can be seen from the
driver’s seat. It also makes things look farther away
than they really are.
