CARD HOLDER (DRIVER’S SIDE

Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-21

Automatic anti-glare type (if so
equipped)
The inside mirror is designed so that it automati-
cally changes reflection based on the intensity of
the headlights of the vehicle behind.
The anti-glare system automatically turns on
when the power switch is moved to the ON
position.
When the system is turned on, the indicator light
Awill illuminate and excessive glare from the
headlights of the vehicle behind you will be re-
duced.Type A: Push the
switchBfor 3 seconds
to turn off the automatic anti-glare system. The
indicator turns off when the system is off. Push
the
switch again for 3 seconds to turn the
system on.
Do not hang any objects on the mirror or
apply glass cleaner to it. Doing so will re-
duce the sensitivity of the sensor
C, result-
ing in improper operation.
Type B: Push the “” switch
Cto make the inside
rearview mirror operate normally. The indicatorlight will turn off. Push the “I” switch
Dto turn the
system on.
Do not allow any object to cover the sen-
sors
Eor apply glass cleaner on them.
Doing so will reduce the sensitivity of the
sensor, resulting in improper operation.
WARNING
Use the night position only when neces-
sary, because it reduces rear view clarity.

OUTSIDE MIRRORS
Adjusting outside mirrors
WARNING
Objects viewed in the outside mirror on
the passenger side are closer than they
appear. Be careful when moving to the
right. Using only this mirror could cause
an accident. Use the inside mirror or
glance over your shoulder to properly
judge distances to other objects.The outside mirror control switch is located on
the armrest.
The outside mirror will operate only when the
power switch is in the ACC or ON position.
Turn the switch right or left to select the right or
left side mirror
1, then adjust the mirror using
the control switch
2.
Defrosting outside mirrors
The outside mirrors will be heated when the rear
window defroster switch is operated. See “Rear
window and outside mirror defroster switch” in
the “Instruments and controls” section.
Folding outside mirrors
Fold the outside mirror by pushing it toward the
rear of the vehicle.
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-23

When the shift lever is shifted into the R (Re-
verse) position, the monitor display shows a rear-
ward view from the vehicle.
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the Rear View
Monitor could result in serious injury or
death.
• The RearView Monitor is a conve-
nience but it is not a substitute for
proper backing. Always turn and look
out the windows, and check mirrors to
be sure that it is safe to move before
operating the vehicle. Always back up
slowly.
• The system is designed as an aid to the
driver in showing large stationary ob-
jects directly behind the vehicle, to
help avoid damaging the vehicle.
• The system will not detect small ob-
jects below the bumper, and may not
detect objects close to the bumper or
on the ground.
• The system cannot completely elimi-
nate blind spots and may not show
every object.• Underneath the bumper and the corner
areas of the bumper cannot be viewed
on the RearView Monitor because of
its monitoring range limitation. The
system will not show objects below
the bumper, and may not show objects
close to the bumper or on the ground.
• Objects viewed in the RearView Moni-
tor differ from actual distance because
a wide-angle lens is used.
• Objects in the RearView Monitor will
appear visually opposite than when
viewed in the rear view and outside
mirrors.
• Make sure that the hatch is securely
closed when backing up.
• Do not put anything on the rearview
camera. The rearview camera is in-
stalled on top of the hatch.
• When washing the vehicle with high
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the camera. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit causing wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a mal-
function, fire or an electric shock.
• Do not strike the camera. It is a preci-
sion instrument. Otherwise, it may
malfunction or cause damage result-
ing in a fire or an electric shock.
CAUTION
There is a plastic cover over the camera.
Do not scratch the cover when cleaning
dirt or snow from the cover.
