NISSAN 2010 Maxima - Manual (Page 156)

WARNING
● Objects viewed in the outside mirror on
the passenger side are closer than they
appear. Be careful when moving to the
right. Using only this mirror could cause
an accident. Use the inside mirror or
glance over your shoulder to properly
judge distances to other objects.
● Do not adjust the mirrors while driving.
You could lose control of your vehicle
and cause an accident.
Automatic anti-glare outside mirrors (if
so equipped)
The driver’s outside mirror will automatically dim
during nighttime conditions to reduce the glare
from the headlights of trailing vehicles. The auto-
matic anti-glare feature operates only when the
ignition switch is placed in the ON position.
The automatic anti-glare feature will be on when
starting the vehicle. The indicator light on the
automatic anti-glare rearview mirror will illuminate
when the automatic anti-glare feature is on.
To turn off the automatic anti-glare feature, press:
● the O button on rearview mirror without
compass (Type B).
● the button on rearview mirror with
compass (Type C).
The indicator light will turn off.
To turn on the automatic anti-glare feature again,
press:
● the | button on rearview mirror without
compass (Type B).
● the button on rearview mirror
equipped with compass (Type C).
The indicator light will turn on.
For information on the automatic anti-glare rear-
view mirror, see “Automatic anti-glare rearview
mirror” in this section.
Reverse tilt-down feature (if so
equipped)
The reverse tilt-down feature will turn both out-
side mirror surfaces downward to provide better
rear visibility close to the vehicle when the small
switch is in either the L or R position.
NOTE:
If the outside mirror control switch is in the
neutral position, neither mirror will turn
downward when the shift selector is moved
to R (Reverse).
Move the shift selector to R (Reverse). Both
mirrors will turn downward.
The mirror surfaces will return to their original
position when any of the following have occurred:
● The shift selector is moved to any position
other than R (Reverse).
● The outside mirror control switch is set to the
neutral or center position.
● The ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position.
Heated mirrors (if so equipped)
The electric control type outside mirrors (if so
equipped) can be heated to defrost, defog, or
de-ice for improved visibility. Push the rear win-
dow defogger switch to activate the heating
function. Push the switch again to deactivate, or
the heating function will automatically turn off
after approximately 15 minutes.
