3-4. Adjusting the steering wheel and mirrors
1 Folds the mirrors
2 Extends the mirrors
Vehicles with automatic folding/extending
mirror function:
Putting the outside rear view mirror folding
switch in the neutral position sets the mir-
rors to automatic mode.
Automatic mode allows the folding or
extending of the mirrors to be linked to
locking/unlocking of the doors.
■ Using automatic mode in cold weather
When automatic mode is used in cold
weather, the door mirror could freeze up
and automatic stowing and return may not
be possible. In this case, remove any ice and
snow from the door mirror, then either
operate the mirror using manual mode or
move the mirror by hand.
■ Customization
The automatic mirror folding and extending
operation can be changed.
(Customizable features: P.482)
When the mirror select switch is in the
“L” or “R” position, the outside rear
view mirrors will automatically angle
downwards when the vehicle is revers-
ing in order to give a better view of the
ground.
To disable this function, move the mir-
ror select switch to the neutral position
(between “L” or “R”).
■ Adjusting the mirror angle when
the vehicle is reversing
With the shift lever in R, adjust the mir-
ror angle at a desired position. The
adjusted angle will be memorized and
the mirror will automatically tilt to the
memorized angle whenever the shift
lever is shifted to R from next time.
The memorized downward tilt position of
the mirror is linked to the normal position
(angle adjusted with the shift lever in other
than R). Therefore, if the normal position is
changed after adjustment, the tilt position
will also change.
When the normal position is changed,
readjust the angle in reversing.
■ When the outside rear view mirror
defoggers are operating (vehicles
with outside rear view defoggers)
Do not touch the outside rear view mir-
ror surfaces, as they can become very
hot and burn you.

■ When a mirror is moving
To avoid personal injury and mirror mal-
function, be careful not to get your hand
caught by the moving mirror.
