Extend type
Adjust the mirror so that you can just
see the side of your vehicle in the mir-
ror.
Extend type only—Each mirror is divided
into two and has two different curvatures.
The lower part of the mirror offers a wider
field of vision than the upper part. Dis-
tances will therefore appear to be different
in the lower and upper part of the mirrors.
Be careful when judging the size or dis-
tance 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 when seen in a flat
mirror.
On some models, when you push the
outside rear view mirror defogger switch,
the heater panels in the outside rear view
mirrors will quickly clear the mirror
surface. (See “Outside rear view mirror
defogger” on page 177 in Section 1 −5.)

them when the defogger switch is
on.

Adjust the mirror so that you can just
see the rear of your vehicle in the mir-
ror.
This mirror is equipped with auto anti
glare function. The function is designed
to reduce glare from the headlights of
the vehicle behind you during night
driving.
When the ignition switch is in the “ON”
position, the inside rear view mirror al-
ways turns on in the automatic function
mode.
The indicator illuminates to show you that
the function is on.In automatic function mode, if the mirror
detects light from the headlights of the
vehicle behind you, the mirror surface
darkens slightly to reduce the reflected
light.
To turn off and on the automatic function,
push the “
” switch.
Adjust it before driving so that the rear
view is in the best condition.
When the inside air temperature is low, it
may take a little longer for the mirror to
darken in response to the detection of
headlights.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the mirror while the
vehicle is moving. Doing so may
cause the driver to mishandle the ve-
hicle and an accident may occur re-
sulting in death or serious injuries.
XS14012
To ensure correct functioning of anti
glare mirror sensors located on both
sides of the mirror, do not touch or
cover the sensors with your finger or
a piece of cloth, etc.
