AUTOMATIC ANTI-GLARE INSIDE
MIRROR (if so equipped)
WARNING Use the AUTO position only when nec-
essary, because it reduces rear view
clarity.
The inside mirror is designed so that it auto-
matically changes reflection according to the
intensity of the headlight of the following ve-
hicle. When the inside mirror is in the AUTO position,
excessive glare from the headlights of the
vehicle behind you will be reduced. When the
switch of the inside mirror is in the OFF
position, the inside mirror will operate nor-
mally.

OPERATION This system is designed so that the driver's
seat will automatically move when the auto-
matic transmission selector lever is in the P
(Park) position or when the parking brake is
applied (manual transmission model). This al-
lows the driver to get in and out of the driver's
seat more easily.
When one of the following conditions is met,
the driver's seat will slide backward. (AT mod-
els only)
O When the key is removed from the ignition
switch.
O When the driver's door is opened with the
key turned to ACC or LOCK.
O When the key is turned from ON to ACC
with the driver's door open.
When one of the following conditions is met,
the driver's seat will return to the positions
before being set. (AT models only)
O When the key is inserted into the ignition
switch.
O When the driver's door is closed with the
key turned to LOCK.
O When the key is turned from ACC to ON with the driver's door open.
