- For vehicles with power folding exterior
mirrors *: If the m irror housing was
moved by outside forces (such as an im-
pact when maneuvering), you must use
the power folding function to fold the
mirro r all the way out. You will hear a
loud noise when the mirrors are latched
back in place . The mirror housing must
not be moved back into place by hand
because th is would affe ct t he mirror
mechanism.
- Applies to vehicles witho ut powe r fold-
ing exterior mirro rs : If the mirror hous-
ing was moved by o utside forces (such as
in impact d uring maneuvering), you
must move the mirror housing back into
place by hand.
- If you wash the vehicle in an automatic
car wash, you must fold the exterior m ir-
rors in to reduce the risk of damage to
the mirrors . Never fold power foldi ng ex-
te rior mirrors by hand . Only fold them in
and out using the power cont rols.
