irror so that you can just see the rear of
your vehicle in the mirror.
Pushing the switch changes the mode between
ºAUTOº and ºDAYº.
The indicator comes on when the ºAUTOº mode is
selected.
ºDAYº mode: The mirror surface is normal.
ºAUTOº mode: If the mirror detects light from the
headlights of the vehicle behind you, the mirror
surface darkens slightly to reduce the reflected
light.
When the inside rear view mirror surface changes, the
outside rear view mirror surfaces will also become
darker.
When the ignition key is inserted and turned on, the
inside rear view mirror always turns on in the ºAUTOº
mode. When the outside air temperature is low, it may take a
little longer for the mirror to darken in response to the
detection of headlights.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the mirror while the vehicle is moving. It
may cause the driver to mishandle the vehicle and an
accident may occur resulting in personal injuries.
