Mirrors Outside Power Mirrors The controls, located on the driver's door, operate both outside rearview mirrors. 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 appear farther away than they really are. Push the top control to the left or right to choose either the driver's or passenger's outside rearview mirror. Leave the control in the center position to prevent moving the mirrors once they are adjusted. Use the arrows on the bottom control to adjust the position of each mirror. Adjust each mirror so that you can see the side of your vehicle and the area behind it, while sitting in a comfortable driving position. Both outside mirrors can be folded forward or rearward to prevent damage when going through car washes or confined spaces. Outside Heated Mirrors If the vehicle has outside heated rearview mirrors, they are activated when the rear window defogger is turned on. See "Rear Window Defogger" in Climate Control System on page 3-25. 2-41
