The technique for using a signal mirror is simple:
Use the signal mirror to reflect sunlight on to a nearby surface.
Slowly raise the mirror up to your eye, while making sure that the reflective surface is not blocked in anyway. Be careful where you place your fingers.
Tilt the mirror up toward the sun, until you see a small bead of light.
Move the light toward your intended target (a plane or search and rescue teams) and wiggle the mirror. Always keep the bead of light in view.
The main idea is to move it around so you get a flashing strobe light effect.
