General information

The mirror on the passenger side is more curved
than the driver's side mirror.

Estimating distances correctly
Objects reflected in the mirror are closer

than they appear. Do not estimate the distance
to the traffic behind you based on what you see

in the mirror, as this will increase your risk of an
accident.◀

The mirror setting is stored for the remote con‐
trol currently in use. When the vehicle is un‐

tomatically retrieved if the setting for this
function is active.
