REAR VIEW MIRRORS
INTERIOR REAR VIEW MIRROR fig. 35

The mirror is fitted with a safety device that causes its re-
lease in the event of a violent impact with the passenger.

ly alter the perception of distance.

ficulty in narrow spaces), it is possible to fold the mirrors
by moving them from position A-fig. 36 to position B.
