OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRRORS
Adjust the mirror so that you can just see the side of your
vehicle in the mirror.
Be careful when judging the size or distance of any object seen
in the outside rear view mirror on the passenger's side
because it is a convex mirror. Any object seen in a convex
mirror will look smaller and farther away than if seen in a normal
flat mirror.
When you push the outside rear view mirror defogger switch,
the heater panels in the outside rear view mirrors will quickly
clear the mirror surface. (See Outside rear view mirror
defogger switchº on page 44.)
The rear view mirrors are rain clearing mirrors that clear the
driver's rear view when it rains. (For details, see Rain clearing
mirrorsº on page 615.)
