Front passenger's exterior mirror tilt
function*
To help you see the curb when backing into a
parking space, the surface of the mirror tilts
slightly. For this to happen, the knob must be in
the posit ion for the front passenger's exterior
mirror .
You can adjust the ti lted mirror surface by turn-
ing the knob in the desired direction. When you
move out of reverse and into another gear, the
new mirror position is stored and assigned to the
key you are using.
The mirror goes back into its original position
once you drive forward faster than 9 mph
(15 km/h) or turn the ignition off.
A WARNING
Curved mirror surfaces (convex or aspheric*)
enlarge the field of vision. However, they
make objects in the mirror appear smaller
and farther away. You may estimate incor-

rectly when you use these mirrors to gauge
your distance from the vehicles behind you
when changing lanes, which increases the risk
of an accident.
(D Note
- If the mirror housing was moved by force
(for example, by running into an object
when maneuvering the vehicle), the mirror
must be folded all the way in using the pow-
er folding function. The m irror housing
must not be moved back into place by hand
because this would impair the function of
the mirror mechanism.
- If you wash the vehicle in an automatic car
wash, you must fold the exter ior mirrors in
to reduce the risk of damage to the m irrors.
Never fold power fo lding exterior mirrors *
by hand. Only fold them in and out using
the power controls .
(D Tips
- If the power adjusting function malfunc-
tions, the glass in both mirrors can be ad-
justed by pressing on the edge of it by hand.
- The exterior mirror settings are stored with
the memory function*
