WARNING
Convex or wide-angle* exterior mirrors give a
lar
ger field of vision. However, they make ob-
jects look smaller and further away than they
really are. If you use these mirrors to esti-
mate the distance to vehicles behind you
when ch
anging lane, you could misjudge the
distance. Risk of accident!
CAUTION
●
If
one of
the mirror housings is knocked out
of position (e.g. when parking), the mirrors
must first be fully retracted with the electric
control. Do not readjust the mirror housing by
hand, as this will interfere with the mirror ad-
juster function.
●
Before washing the vehicle in an automatic
car wash, please make sure to retract the ex-
terior mirrors to prevent them from being
damaged. Electrically retractable exterior
mirrors must not be folded in or out by hand.
Always use the electrical power control.
Note
If the electrical adjustment should fail to op-
erat
e, both of the mirrors can be adjusted by
hand by lightly pressing the edge of the mir-
ror glass.
