farther away than w hen seen in a flat mirror. If you use this mirr or to
estimate distances of following vehicles when changing lanes , you
cou ld estimate incorrectly and cause an acc ident .
• If the mirror housing is moved unintentionally (for example ,
wh ile pa rking your vehicle), then you must firs t fold the mirro r elec - trically. Do not readjust the mirror housing manually. You cou
ld
damage the m otor wh ich contr ols the mirror .
