Mirrors

Keep the inside and outside mirrors
clean and adjusted for best visibility.
Be sure to adjust the mirrors before
you start driving.
The inside mirror has day and night positions. The night position reduces
glare from headlights behind you.
Flip the tab on the bottom edge of
the mirror to select the day or night

position.
Adjusting the Power Mirrors
Adjust the outside mirrors with the adjustment switch on the driver'sdoor armrest:
1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
2. Move the selector switch to L (driver's side) or R (passenger's

side).
3. Push the appropriate edge of the

adjustment switch to move the
mirror right, left, up or down.
4. When you finish, move the
selector switch to the center (off)

position. This turns off the
adjustment switch so you can't

move a mirror out of position by

accidentally bumping the switch.
