the mirror to reduce the glare from the headlamps of vehicles
behind you during night driving.
Outside rear-view mirrors
E00600900455
On the driver’s seat side, a compound curved-surface mirror if
so equipped is used, while on the front passenger’s seat side, a
single curved-surface mirror is used.
While the single curved-surface mirror has a fixed curvature,
the compound curved-surface mirror has different curvatures
between the inner and outer sides of the boundary line (A).
The inner side of the boundary line provides the same vision as
that available from an ordinary door mirror.
However, the outer side of the boundary line provides a wider
vision than an ordinary door mirror.
