GS350_200t_GS F_OM_OM30F83E_(EE)
■Using the switch 
Press the switch to fold the mirrors.
Press it again to extend them to the 
original position.
■Setting automatic mode 
Automatic mode allows the folding or extending of the mirrors to be linked to 
locking/unlocking of the doors. 
Press the “AUTO” switch to set auto- 
matic mode.The indicator will come on. 
Pressing the switch once more will 
return to manual mode.
When either “L” or “R” of the mirror select switch is selected, 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 function, select neither 
“L” nor “R”.
■Adjusting the mirror angle when the vehicle is reversing 
With the shift lever in R, adjust the mirror angle at a desired positio n.
The adjusted angle will be memorized and the mirror will automatically tilt to 
the memorized angle whenever the shift lever is shifted to R from next time. The memorized downward tilt position of  the mirror is linked to the normal position
(angle adjusted with the shift lever in othe r than R). Therefore, if the normal posi-
tion is changed after adjustment, the tilt position will also change. 
When the normal position is changed, readjust the angle in reversing.
