side rear view mirrors) can be memorized and recalled by pressing a button.

■ When either “L” or “R” of the mirror select switch is selected, the outside rear view mir-
rors will automatically angle downwards when the vehicle is reversing in order to give a
better view of the ground. To disable th is function, select neither “L” nor “R”.
■ If the mirror angle adjustment switch is oper ated while the linked mirror function is in
operation, the angle and positi on of the mirrors can be remembered, and the mirrors will
operate at the angle adjusted to the last ti me the linked mirror function was operated.
However, because the mirrors move based on the angle they are in when the linked mir-
ror function is not operating, the mirror angl e when the linked mirror function is operat-
ing will also be changed if the mirrors are adjusted while the function is not operating.
