nonessential electrical accessories (rear

mately two or three circles).
5. The compass is now calibrated.
Further calibration is not required. The
compass will automatically calibrate from
this point forward.

& Outside mirrors
! Convex mirror (passenger side)
WARNING
Objects look smaller in a convex
mirror and farther away than when
viewed in a flat mirror. Do not use
the convex mirror to judge the
distance of vehicles behind you
when changing lanes. Use the inside
mirror (or glance backwards) to
determine the actual size and dis-
tance of objects that you view in
convex mirror.
