The mirrors may also have an arrow that flashes when
the turn signal is used. See
Lever on page 3-7.
Outside Curb View Assist Mirror
If you have the Memory Seat and Mirrors feature, the
passenger’s outside rearview mirror includes a tilt-down
feature that operates when the shift lever is in
REVERSE (R). This feature assists the driver, improving
rear obstacle detection. When the vehicle is shifted
out of REVERSE (R), the passenger mirror will return to
its original position after a five-second delay. This
delay prevents movement of the mirror if multiple gear
transitions (REVERSE (R) to AUTOMATIC
OVERDRIVE (
X
) to REVERSE (R)) occur during a
parallel parking maneuver. This feature can be
programmed on or off through the personal choice
selection menu. See
DIC Vehicle Personalization on
page 3-50 for programming instructions.
Outside Convex Mirror
Your passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror’s surface is curved so you can see more from the
driver’s seat.
{
CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder
before changing lanes.
Outside Automatic Dimming
Heated Mirror
If you have this feature, the outside driver’s mirror will
adjust for the glare of headlamps behind you. This
feature is controlled using the on and off settings on the
automatic dimming rearview mirror. See
Dimming Rearview Mirror on page 2-33.
When you operate the rear window defogger, the
heated driver’s and passenger’s outside rearview mirrors
are warmed to help clear them of ice and snow. See
“Rear Window Defogger” under
on page 3-24 or Dual Automatic Climate Control
System on page 3-26 for more information.
