16L282
Adjust the mirror so that you can just see the side of your
vehicle in the mirror.
Be careful when judging the size or distance of any object seen
in the outside rear view mirror on the passenger’s side
because it is a convex mirror. Any object seen in a convex
mirror will look smaller and farther away than if seen in a normal
flat mirror.
When the inside rear view mirror darkens in “AUTO” mode, the
outside rear view mirrors also darken to reduce the reflection
of the headlights of the following vehicle. For details, see
“Inside rear view mirror” on page 234. When you push the rear window and outside rear view mirror
defogger swi
tch or operate the wipers, the heater panels in the
outside rear view mirrors will quickly clear the mirror surface.
(See “Windshield wiper and washer switch” on page 58 and
“Rear window and outside rear view mirror defogger switch” on
page 63.)
CAUTION
 Do not adjust the mirror while the vehicle is moving.
Doing so may cause the driver to mishandle the
vehicle and an accident may occur resulting in death
or serious injuries.
 Since the mirror surfaces can get hot, do not touch
them when the rear window and outside rear view
mirror defogger switch is on.

headlights of the vehicle behind you, the mirror surface
darkens slightly to reduce the reflected light.
When the inside rear view mirror surface changes, the outside
rear view mirror surfaces will also become darker.
When the ignition switch is turned on, the inside rear view
mirror always turns on in the “AUTO” mode. When the outside air temperature is low, it may take a little
longer for the mirror to darken in response to the detection of
headlights.
