Lights and Vision
move out of reverse and into another gear, the
new mirror position is stored and assigned to the
key you are using.
The mirror goes back into its original position
once you drive forward faster than 9 mph
(15 km/h) or turn t he ignition
off.
A WARNING
Curved mirror surfaces (for example convex)
enlarge the field of vision. However, they
make objects in the mirror appear smaller
and farther away. You may estimate incor­
rectly when you use these mirrors to gauge
your distance from the vehicles behind you
when changing lanes, which increases the risk of an accident.
«1j) Note
-Applies to vehicles with power folding exte­
rior mirrors: if the mirror housing was
moved by outside forces (such as an impact
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 would impair the func­
tion of the mirror mechanism.

moved by outside forces (such as an impact
when maneuvering), you must move it back in place by hand.

the power controls.

tions, the glass in both mirrors can be ad­
justed by pressing on the edge of it by hand.

ways, especially in people with asthma or other respiratory conditions. Take deep
breaths immediately after leaving the vehi­
cle or, if this is not possible, open all of the
doors and windows as wide as possible.
- If electrolyte fluid enters the eyes, flush
them thoroughly with a large amount of
clean water for at least 15 minutes and then
seek medical attention.
- If electrolyte fluid comes into contact with
the skin, flush the affected area with clean
water for at least 15 minutes and then clean
with soap and water and seek medical at­ tention. Clean affected clothing and shoes
thoroughly before wearing again.
- If the fluid was swallowed and the person is
conscious, flush the mouth with water for at
least 15 minutes . Do not induce vomiting
unless this is recommended by medical pro­
fessionals. Seek medical attention immedi­
