Convex Outside Mirror Your passenger's side mirror is convex. A convex mirror's surface is curved so you can see more from the driver's seat. Instrument Panel Cupholder The instrument panel cupholder is located to the left of the steering wheel. To use it, pull it out until the rubber insert is revealed. Center Console Storage Area 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 center console has two separate storage areas. The upper compartment, which is also the armrest, can be used to store maps, gloves, etc. To open, pull up on the driver's side of the lid. The lower area can be used to store cassette tapes or compact discs. To open the lower compartment, pull up on the armrest. Center Console Cupholder The console provides space for holding a cup or soft drink container. The cupholder is located at the rear of the shift lever. Storage Compartments Glove Box To open, pull the handle to the left and pull the glove box door down until it stops and is fully open. Rear Seat Cupholders Pull down the door on the rear of the center console to use the rear seat cupholders. 2-44
