Outside Automatic Dimming Mirror If your vehicle is equipped with this feature, the driver's outside mirror will adjust for the glare of headlamps behind you. This feature is controlled by the on and off settings found on the electrochromic mirror. Outside Convex 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. Outside Curb View Assist Mirrors If the vehicle has the memory package, the outside mirrors are able to perform the curb view assist mirror function. This feature will cause the passenger's and/or driver's mirror to tilt to a preselected position when the vehicle is in REVERSE (R). This feature may be useful in allowing the driver to view the curb when parallel parking. When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R) and a short delay has occurred, the passenger's and/or driver's mirror will return to its original position. To change the preselected tilt position, adjust the mirrors to the desired position while the vehicle is in REVERSE (R). When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R), this new position is saved in memory as the tilt position. This feature can be turned on or off through the Driver Information Center (DIC). See Driver Information Center (DIC) on page 3-51 for more information. {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. Outside Heated Mirrors The vehicle may have outside heated mirrors which helps clear them of condensation, snow, and ice. The mirror heat is controlled by pressing the outside mirror button, if the vehicle has a sliding rear window, or the rear window defogger button. See "Rear Window Defogger" under Dual Automatic Climate Control System on page 3-24 for further information. The mirror heat will turn off about 10 minutes after the button is pressed. Press the button again if additional warming time is needed. 2-68
