The auto fuel cutoff switch is located on
the passenger’s side of the engine com-
partment. In the event of a collision or
sudden impact, the auto fuel cutoff
device cuts off the fuel supply. If this
device is activated, it must be reset by
pressing in on the top of the switch
before the engine can be restarted.

MIRRORS

Outside rearview mirror

Be sure to adjust mirror angles before
driving.
Your vehicle is equipped with both left-
hand and right-hand outside rearview
mirrors. The mirrors can be adjusted
remotely with the control levers or remote
switch, depending on the type of mirror
control installed. The mirror heads can be
folded back to prevent damage during an
automatic car wash or when passing in a
narrow street.

WARNING

Before resetting the auto fuel cutoff
switch, the fuel line should be
checked for fuel leaks.

WARNING-

Rearview mir-
rors

• The right outside rearview mirror

is convex (if equipped). Objects
seen in the mirror are closer than
they appear.

• Use your interior rearview mirror

or direct observation to deter-
mine the actual distance of fol-
lowing vehicles when changing
lanes.

CAUTION

Do not scrape ice off the mirror
face; this may damage the surface
of the glass. If ice should restrict
movement of the mirror, do not
force the mirror for adjustment. To
remove ice, use a deicer spray, or a
sponge or soft cloth with very warm
water.
