Be sure to adjust the mirror position before starting to drive.

Your vehicle is equipped with both left and right outside rearview mirrors. The mirrors can be adjusted remotely using the remote switch. The mirror heads can be folded back to prevent damage when washing the vehicle in an automatic car wash or when driving through a narrow street.

WARNING - Rearview mirrors
  • The outside rearview mirror is convex. Objects seen in the mirror are closer than they appear.
  • To judge the actual distance to vehicles behind you when changing lanes, use the inside rearview mirror or direct observation.
CAUTION Do not scrape ice off the mirror surface, as this may damage the glass surface.

If ice may restrict mirror movement, do not use force when adjusting it. To remove ice, use a spray de-icer, or a sponge or soft cloth with very hot water.

CAUTION If the mirror is blocked by ice, do not force the mirror adjustment. To free the frozen mechanism, use an approved de-icer (not engine coolant antifreeze), or drive the vehicle to a warm place and allow the ice to melt. WARNING Do not adjust or fold the outside rearview mirror while the vehicle is moving.

This may result in loss of control and an accident that could cause death, serious injury, or property damage.
