Mirrors: Description and Operation

Rear View Mirrors


Exterior Mirrors

The main components of the exterior rear view mirrors are:

- Exterior mirror glass
- Exterior mirror plastic housing
- Exterior mirror control switch (optional)
- Exterior mirror motor (optional)

Power Exterior Mirrors

Power mirrors allow the LH or RH exterior mirror glass to be positioned electronically. The position of the power mirror glass is controlled by the exterior mirror control switch. Adjusting the exterior mirror control switch to the LH or RH position determines which power mirror glass will be controlled.


Interior Mirror

The interior rear view mirror consists of a mirror glass and housing. The interior rear view mirror mounts to an interior rear view mirror bracket at the upper center of the windshield glass. The interior rear view mirror can be adjusted left, right, up and down using the 2 pivot points on the support arm. The interior rear view mirror can be adjusted from a day position to a night position to reduce unwanted glare caused by headlamps reflecting in the mirror. Adjusting the interior rear view mirror day/night tab, located at the bottom of the interior rear view mirror, rearward will adjust the interior mirror to the night position. Adjusting the interior rear view mirror day/night tab forward will adjust the interior mirror to the day position.
