Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Interior mirror
Exterior mirrors
WARNING
Make sure that the mirror is not covered by ice, snow, mist or other objects.
■
Convex (curved outward) or aspheric exterior mirrors increase the field of vi-
■

sion. They do, however, make objects appear smaller in the mirror. These mir-
rors are therefore only of limited use for estimating distances to the following
vehicles.
Whenever possible use the interior mirror for estimating the distances to
■
the following vehicles.
The illuminated display of an external navigation unit can lead to operation-
■
al faults to the automatic dimming interior mirror – risk of accident.
WARNING
Automatic dimming mirrors contain an electrolytic fluid which may leak
■
should the mirror glass break.
The leaking electrolytic fluid can irritate the skin, eyes and breath apparatus.
■
Immediately seek out fresh air and leave the vehicle. If this is not possible, at
least open the window.
If you swallow electrolytic fluid, seek medical assistance immediately.
■
If your eyes or skin come into contact with the electrolytic fluid, immediately
■
wash the affected area for a few minutes long with a lot of water. Then con-
sult a doctor immediately.
