mirror.Annoying headlight glare can be reduced by moving the
small control under the mirror to the night position
(toward rear of vehicle). The mirror should be adjusted
while set in the day position (toward windshield).

To receive maximum benefit, adjust the outside mirror(s)
to center on the adjacent lane of traffic with a slight
overlap of the view obtained on the inside mirror.WARNING!

than they really are. Relying too much on your
right side mirror could cause you to collide with
another vehicle or other object.

distance of a vehicle seen in the right side mirror.
