CAUTION
Seat adjustment
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not
recline the seat more than necessary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply
restraint forces directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the
shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of
an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpect-
edly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
After adjusting the seat, make sure that the seat is locked in position.

Operating the driving position memory after turning the “POWER” switch
off
Memorized positions can be activated up to 180 seconds after the driver’s
door is opened and another 60 seconds after it is closed again, even after
turning the “POWER” switch off.
Canceling the linked door unlock operation
Turn the “POWER” switch to ON mode and close the driver’s door.
While pressing the “SET” button, press the driver’s door lock
switches (either lock or unlock) until the signal beeps.
Stopping seat position operation part-way through
Perform any of the following operations:
Press the “SET” button.
Press button 1, 2 or 3.
Adjust the seat using the switches (only cancels seat position recall).
Correct seat position
When the seat is in the most forward or most backward position, and the
seat is being moved in those directions, the system may not correctly recog-
nize the current position and the memorized position will not be correctly
recalled.
CAUTION
Seat adjustment caution
Take care during seat adjustment so that the seat does not strike the rear pas-
senger or squeeze your body against the steering wheel.

dent, resulting in death or serious injury.

accident, and resulting in death or serious injury.

Mirror angle can be adjusted when
The “POWER” switch is in ACCESSORY or ON mode.
Linked mirror function when reversing (vehicles with driving position
memory)
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
reversing in order to give a better view of the ground. To disable this func-
tion, move the mirror select switch to the neutral position (between “L” and
“R”).
Rain clearing mirrors (if equipped)
When water droplets collects on the mirror surface, for example when it
rains, the rain clearing (hydrophilic) effect of the mirrors causes the droplets
to be spread out into a film making the rear view clearer. In the following
cases, the rain clearing effect will be reduced temporarily, but will return
after 1 or 2 days’ exposure to direct sunlight.
After wiping dirt off the mirrors
When the mirrors fog up
After waxing your vehicle in an automatic car wash
After your vehicle has been parked for a long period in underground
parking lots etc. where there is no direct sunlight
When the mirrors are fogged up
The outside rear view mirrors can be cleared using the mirror defoggers.
Turn on the rear window defogger to turn on the outside rear view mirror
defoggers.
(P. 329)
Automatic adjustment of the mirror angle (vehicles with driving position
memory)
A desired mirror face angle can be entered to memory and recalled automat-
ically by the driving position memory. (P. 102)
