Front passenger's exterior mirror tilt
function*
Requirement: the knob must be in the position
for the front passenger’s exterior mirror.
To help you see the curb when backing into a
parking space, the surface of the mirror will tilt
slightly when reverse gear is selected.
You can adjust the tilted mirror surface by turn-
ing the knob in the desired direction.
The mirror moves from the reversing position
back to the original position:
—When you switch the ignition off
— Once you drive forward at speeds faster than 9
mph (15 km/h)
— When the knob is no longer in the position for
the front passenger exterior mirror

ZA WARNING
Curved mirror surfaces (for example convex)
enlarge the field of vision. However, they
make objects in the mirror appear smaller and
farther away. When using these mirrors to es-
timate your distance to vehicles behind you
when changing lanes, you could estimate in-
correctly, which increases the risk of an acci-
dent.

@) Note
— Applies to: vehicles with power folding exte-
rior mirrors: If the mirror housing was
moved by outside forces (such as an impact
54
when maneuvering), you must use the pow-
er folding function to fold the mirror all the
way out. The mirrors will make a loud noise
when they latch into place. The mirror hous-
ing must not be moved back into place by
hand because this could impair the function
of the mirror mechanism.
— Applies to: vehicles without power folding
exterior mirrors: If the mirror housing was
moved by outside forces (such as an impact
when maneuvering), you must move it back
in place by hand.
— If you wash the vehicle in an automatic car
wash, you must fold the exterior mirrors in
to reduce the risk of damage to the mirrors.
Never fold power folding exterior mirrors*
by hand. Only fold them in and out using
the power controls.
@ Tips
— Certain settings are stored automatically in
the active personal profile.
— If the power adjusting function malfunc-
tions, the glass in both mirrors can be ad-
justed by pressing on the edge of it by hand.
Dimming the mirrors
Manual dimming rearview mirror
> Pull the lever on the bottom of the mirror back.
Automatic dimming rearview mirror*
> The interior and exterior mirrors dim automati-
cally when light shines on them, for example
from headlights on a vehicle behind you.

ZA\ WARNING
— If the glass on an automatic dimming mir-
ror* breaks, electrolyte can leak out. This
liquid can irritate the skin, eyes and respira-
tory system. If there is contact with the flu-
id, flush immediately with plenty of water.
Consult a physician if necessary.
