Mirror heater*With the rear window demister switch (A) in
the “ON” position, the outside rear–view mir-
rors are demisted or defrosted. Current will
flow through the heater elements inside the
mirrors, thus clearing away frost or con-
densation.
The indication lamp (A) will illuminate while
the demister is on.
The heater will be turned off automatically in
about 20 minutes.
Type 2
I08B185a
Traction control (TCL)*EI26A–Mc
On slippery surfaces, traction control (TCL)
prevents the drive wheels (front wheels) from
excessive spinning, thus helping the vehicle
to start easily.
SLIP controlSlip control prevents the drive wheels (front
wheels) from excessive spinning during
starting or while making accelerated turn on
slippery roads to avoid losing the driving
force of the front wheels.
NOTE
(1) The TCL system functions at speed
below 40 km/h.
(2) Although some vibration will be felt in
the vehicle body and a whining sound of
a motor will be heard from the engine
compartment when the TCL functions,
this is a normal result of the TCL oper-
ation, and does not indicate a malfunc-
tion.
