In the case of an accident, liquid electrolyte 
may escape the mirror housing if the mirror 
glass breaks.
Electrolyte has an irritating effect. Do not al-
low the liquid to come into contact with 
eyes, skin, clothing, or the respiratory sys-
tem. In case it does, immediately flush af-
fected area with water, and seek medical 
help if necessary.

Exercise care when using the passenger 
side exterior rear view mirror. The mirror 
surface is convex (outwardly curved surface 
for a wider field of view). Objects in mirror 
are closer than they appear. Check your in-
side rear view mirror or glance over your 
shoulder before changing lanes.

Electrolyte drops coming into contact 
with the vehicle paint finish can only be 
completely removed while in their 
liquid state and by applying plenty of 
water.
