protection in the event of a rear-end shunt.WARNING

AND CONTROLS
When driving the mirrors shall always be in position (1).
As the door mirrors are curved, they may slightly alter the perception of distance. The fixed part of the right-hand mirror reflects the
rear right wheel when parking.
This can only be adjusted with the ignition key at MAR.
Use switch (C) to select the mirror (left, neutral, right)
for adjustment.
Press any of the four directions on switch (D) located
on the ceiling light.
Switch (E) electrically controls the movement of the
folding mirrors from position 1 to position 2.
Electrically folding mirrors have a demisting device that
comes on automatically when rear window heating is
turned on.The mirrors can tilt in both directions in the event of a
collision.
To reset the mirror in the correct position, first set it
in the fully closed position by keeping the control
pressed until the mirror stops, then open it.
If the mirror is moved out of its position manually, it is
possible to set it back to the correct position
manually, although it is preferable to move it
electrically. If the mirror is moved out of its position
electrically, it is COMPULSORY to set it back
electrically to its correct position.
If the open mirror makes it difficult to pass through
narrow gaps, fold it from position 1 to position 2.
