Warnings and Cautions for Using the Mirrors
Be sure to look over your shoulder before changing lanes.
Changing lanes without taking into account the actual distance of a vehicle in the convex mirror is dangerous. You could have a serious accident. What you see in the convex mirror is closer than it appears.
Always return the outside mirrors to the driving position before you start driving.
Driving with the outside mirrors folded in is dangerous. Your rear view will be restricted, which could lead to an unexpected accident.
Do not adjust the outside mirrors while driving the vehicle.
Adjusting the outside mirrors while driving the vehicle is dangerous as doing so could distract your attention from the road ahead and lead to an accident.
