Adjusting the exterior mirrors
WARNING
Exercise care when using the passenger-side
exterior rear view mirror. The mirror surface
is convex (outwardly curved surface for a
wider field of view). Objects in mirror are
closer than they appear. Check your interior
rear view mirror and glance over your
shoulder before changing lanes.
The exterior mirrors are automatically heated if the rear window defroster is switched on and the outside temperature is low.
Make sure that the SmartKey is
in position 1 or 2 in the ignition lock.
Press button 1 for the left-hand
exterior
mirror or button 2 for the right-hand
exterior mirror.
The indicator lamp in the corresponding
button lights up in red.
The indicator lamp goes out again after
some time. You can adjust the selected
mirror using adjustment button 3 as long
as the indicator lamp is lit.
Press adjustment button 3 up, down,
to
the right or to the left until the exterior
mirror is set to a position that provides you
with a good overview of traffic conditions.
