Exterior mirrors

Optional (RAMCO) mirror
Your vehicle is equipped with two (2) exterior
mirrors that may be supplied with an optional
electric heating system which serves to minimize
ice and condensation in extreme weather
conditions. Integral thermostats are installed in
both mirrors to avoid continual heating. Use the
appropriate switch on the L.H. side control panel
(item #6 on page 2-4) to activate the defroster
system on both mirrors simultaneously.
The optional "RAMCO" mirrors can easily be
adjusted by using the remote controls located on
L.H. side control panel (items #16 & 17 on page 2-
4).
The standard mirrors can be manually adjusted as
per the following method:
To obtain desired vehicle width, adjust the mirror
arm angle by loosening the adjusting
screw (item #1) located at body end of mirror arm.
Adjust mirror arm to desired position, then tighten
