General information
The mirror on the passenger side is more
curved than the driver's side mirror.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the mir‐

used. When the vehicle is unlocked via the re‐

trieved if this function is active.

dent. Estimate the distance to the traffic be‐
hind by looking over your shoulder.◀
