INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS
4–19
CAUTION
If the lamps are kept flashing for a
long time, the battery will be dis-
charged, resulting in hard engine
starting or no start condition at all.
Type 1
I08B119a
Rear window demister switchEE17AAMb
The rear window demister switch can be op-
erated with the ignition switch in the “ON”
position.
Push the switch to turn on the rear window
demister. To turn off the demister, push the
switch again. As your vehicle is equipped
with the rear window demister timer, it will be
turned off automatically in about 20 minutes.
To turn off the demister within 20 minutes,
push the switch again.
The indication lamp (A) will illuminate while
the demister is on. If your vehicle is equipped
with a mirror heater, when the demister
switch is pressed, the mist can also be re-
moved from the outside rear-view mirrors.
Refer to “Electric remote-controlled outside
rear-view mirrors” on page 5–32.
Type 2
I17A061a
CAUTION
(1) The demister switch is not to melt
snow but to clear mist.
Remove snow before using the
demister switch.
(2) To avoid unnecessary discharge
of the battery, do not use the rear
window demister when the en-
gine is not running. Turn the de-
mister off immediately after the
window is clear.
(3) When cleaning the inside of the
rear window, use a soft cloth and
wipe gently along the heater
wires, being careful not to dam-
age the wires.

STARTING AND DRIVING
5–31
Power steering systemEC13A-Ah
When the engine is stopped, the power
steering system will not function and it will re-
quire greater manual effort to operate the
steering wheel. Keep this in mind in particu-
lar when towing the vehicle. Never turn off
the engine while driving.
Periodically check the power steering fluid
level.
CAUTION
Do not hold the steering wheel in the
fully turned position (either left or
right), for longer than 10 seconds.
This can cause damage to the power
steering pump due to reduced lu-
brication.
I08A027a
Inside rear-view mirrorEI08A-Be
The lever (A) at the bottom of the mirror can
be used to adjust the mirror to reduce the
glare from the headlamps of vehicles behind
you during night driving.
1-Normal
2-Anti-glare
WARNING
Do not attempt to adjust rear-view
mirrors while driving. This can be
dangerous.
Always adjust the mirrors before driv-
ing.
I08B091a
Outside rear-view mirrorEI08A-Za
On the driver’s seat side, a compound
curved-surface mirror is used, while on the
front passenger’s seat side, a single curved-
surface mirror is used.
The compound curved-surface mirror has
different curvatures between the inner and
outer sides of the boundary line (A).
The inner side of the boundary line provides
the same vision as that available from an
ordinary door mirror.
However, the outer side of the boundary line
provides a wider vision than an ordinary door
mirror.

STARTING AND DRIVING
5–32
WARNING
The sense of distance that you get
from an object you see on the inner
side of the mirror boundary line
differs from the sense of distance that
you get from an object you see on the
outer side.
An object you see on the outer side of
the boundary line of the mirror will
look farther away than it actually is
(farther away than if you see in a nor-
mal flat mirror) as compared with an
object you see on the inner side.
