WARNING:
Health risk due to electrolyte.
- To produce its unique properties, the interior rearview mirror glass is composed of several layers and contains an electrolyte. Be careful of electrolyte fluid leaking from a broken mirror.
- The electrolyte fluid can cause irritation to the skin, eyes and respiratory system.
- If electrolyte fluid comes into contact with the eyes or skin, flush thoroughly with plenty of water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention immediately.
CAUTION:
Electrolyte fluid leaking from a broken mirror will damage all plastic surfaces it comes in contact with. Remove spilled electrolyte immediately using clean water and a sponge.
