When the anti-glare inside rear view mirror is set to automatic mode, the outside
rear view mirrors will activate in conjunction with the anti-glare inside rear view mir-
ror to reduce reflected light. (→P. 8 5 )
CAUTION
nWhen driving the vehicle
Observe the following precautions while driving.
Failing to do so may result in loss of control of the vehicle and cause an accident,
resulting in death or serious injury.
lDo not adjust the mirrors while driving.
lDo not drive with the mirrors folded.
lBoth the driver and passenger side mirrors must be extended and properly
adjusted before driving.
nWhen a mirror is moving
To avoid personal injury and mirror malfunction, be careful not to get your hand
caught by the moving mirror.
nWhen the mirror defoggers are operating
