Adjusting the exterior mirrors
WARNING
The exterior mirrors reduce the size of the

appear. You could misjudge the distance from
vehicles driving behind and cause an
accident, e.g. when changing lane. For this
reason, make sure of the actual distance from
the vehicle driving behind by glancing over
your shoulder.
