Side view mirrors
OIK053316
Your vehicle is equipped with both 
left-hand and right-hand side view 
mirrors. The mirrors can be adjusted 
remotely with the mirror adjustment 
control switch. The side view mirrors can 
be folded to help prevent damage when 
going through an automatic car wash or 
when passing through a narrow street.
The right side view mirror is convex. 
Objects seen in the mirror are closer than 
they appear.
Use the inside rear view mirror or look 
back directly to determine the actual 
distance of other vehicles prior to 
changing lanes.
Make sure to adjust the side view mirrors 
to your desired position before you begin 
driving.
 
Do not adjust or fold the side view mirrors 
while driving. This may cause loss of 
vehicle control resulting in an accident.
 
 
• Do not scrape ice off the mirror face; 
this may damage the surface of the 
glass.
• If the mirror is jammed with ice, do not 
adjust the mirror by force. Use an 
approved de-icer (not radiator 
antifreeze) spray, or a sponge or soft 
cloth with very warm water, or move 
the vehicle to a warm place and allow 
the ice to melt.
• Do not clean the mirror with harsh 
abrasives, fuel or other petroleum 
based cleaning products.
 
Adjusting the side view mirrors
OIK053012
Adjusting the side view mirrors:
1. Move the lever (1) either to the L (left 
side) or R (right side) to select the side 
view mirrors you would like to adjust.
2. Use the mirror adjustment control 
switch (2) to position the selected 
mirror up, down, left or right.
3. After adjustment, move the lever (1) to 
the middle to prevent inadvertent 
adjustment.
 
• The mirrors stop moving when they 
reach the maximum adjusting angles, 
but the motor continues to operate 
while the switch is pressed. Do not 
press the switch longer than necessary, 
because this can damage the motor.
• Do not attempt to adjust the side view 
mirrors by hand, because this can 
damage the motor.
