CAUTION
Do not adjust the steering wheel
while the vehicle is moving. Doing
so may cause the driver to mishan-
dle the vehicle and an accident may
occur resulting in death or serious
injuries.
After adjusting the steering wheel,
try moving it up and down to make
sure it is locked in position.
Adjust the mirror so that you can see
the side of your vehicle in the mirror.
Be careful when judging the size or dis-
tance of any object seen in the outside
rear view mirror on the passenger ’s side
because it is a convex mirror. Any object
seen in a convex mirror will look smaller
and farther away than when seen in a flat
mirror.
On some models, when you push the
back window defogger switch, the heater
panels in the outside rear view mirrors will
quickly clear the surface. To turn on the
back window defogger, see “Back window
and outside rear view mirror defoggers” on
page 126 in Section 14.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the mirror while the
vehicle is moving. Doing so may
cause the driver to mishandle the
vehicle and an accident may occur
resulting in death or injuries.
On some models, since the mirror
surfaces can get hot, do not touch
them when the defogger switch is
on.

hicle and an accident may occur re-
sulting in death or injuries.

glare function. The function is designed
to reduce glare from the headlights of
the vehicle behind you during night

ways turns on in the “AUTO” mode.
The “AUTO” indicator illuminates to show

darken in response to the detection of
headlights.

hicle and an accident may occur re-
sulting in death or serious personal
