Rear-View Mirrors - Maserati Ghibli Owner's Manual

Rear-View Mirrors

External Mirrors
External mirrors can be adjusted
electrically and are equipped with
anti-mist resistors operated by the air
conditioning system (see "Air
Conditioning Controls" in section 4).
The mirrors can be closed electrically
and will yield in both directions in case
of a collision.
The side mirrors are electrochromic
(for versions/markets, where
provided), which means, they
automatically operate an anti-dazzle
function by gradually shading as the
light hitting the mirrors increases.
The external of the rear-view mirror
support is equipped with LEDs,
lighting up when the turn signals and
vehicle entry/exit lights are activated.
NOTE:
The mirrors can be adjusted
electrically only with the ignition key
in RUN position.
Mirrors Positioning
The power mirror controls are located
on the driver's door trim panel.
The power mirror controls consist of
mirror select buttons and a four-way
mirror control switch.
To adjust a rear view mirror, press
either the L (left) or R (right) button to
select the mirror that you want to
adjust. The spin button will illuminate
indicating the rear view mirror is
activated and can be adjusted.
Press the mirror control switch
corresponding to the arrow indicating
the direction of the desired
movement.
For optimal vision orientate the
outside(s) mirror(s) in order to frame
the adjacent lane adjacent and get a
partial overlap with the visible image
on the inside rear-view mirror.
Power mirror preselected positions can
be reset by operating the optional
Memory Driver Seat device. Check
"Driver Memory Seat" in section 3 for
further information.
WARNING!
Vehicles and other objects seen in the
external side convex mirror will look
smaller and farther away than they
really are. Relying too much on your
passenger side convex mirror could
cause you to collide with another
vehicle or object. Use the inside mirror
Understanding the Vehicle
to judge the size or distance of a
vehicle seen in the external side
convex mirror.
Tilt Mirrors in Reverse
This feature provides automatic
external rear-view mirrors positioning,
allowing the driver to view the
ground area behind the front doors.
The external mirrors will move slightly
downward from the current position
when the shift lever is shifted into
reverse. The external mirrors will then
return to the original position when
the lever is shifted out of the reverse
position. Each memory set of the
driver's seat (see "Driver Memory Seat
(for versions/markets, where
provided)" chapter in section 3)
corresponds to a mirrors tilt position
in reverse.
NOTE:
The mirrors tilt in reverse can be
turned on and off using the MTC
System, refer to "MTC Settings" in
section 4.
Folding Mirrors
The switch for the power folding
mirrors is located between the power
mirror switches.
