Outside Convex Mirror - Buick 2004 Park Avenue Owner's Manual

Outside Curb View Assist Mirror
If you have the DIC feature, the passenger's outside
rearview mirror also includes a tilt-down feature
that operates when the shift lever is in REVERSE (R).
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R),
the passenger mirror will return to its original position
after a five-second delay. This delay prevents movement
of the mirror if multiple gear transitions (REVERSE (R)
to DRIVE (D) to REVERSE (R)) occur during a
parallel parking maneuver. This feature can be
programmed on or off through the personal choice
selection menu. See Driver Information Center (DIC) on
page 3-47 or DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-51
for programming instructions.

Outside Convex Mirror

Your passenger's side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror's surface is curved so you can see more from the
driver's seat.
CAUTION:
{
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder
before changing lanes.
