Adjusting the exterior mirrors
WARNING
The exterior mirror on the front-passenger side reduces the size of the image. Visible objects are actually closer than they appear.
This means that you could misjudge the distance from road users traveling behind, e.g. when changing lane. There is a risk of an accident.
For this reason, always make sure of the actual distance from the road users traveling behind by glancing over your shoulder.
■ 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, or to the left or right until you have adjusted the exterior mirror to the correct position.
You should have a good overview of traffic conditions.
The convex exterior mirrors provide a larger field of vision.
The exterior mirrors are heated automatically if the rear window defroster is switched on and the outside temperature is low.
