board. If the SRS frontal airbag deploys, those objects could in-
terfere with its proper operation and could be propelled inside the
vehicle and cause injury. Do not attach accessories to the windshield, or fit an extra-

Mirrors
Always check that the inside and outside mirrors are properly adjusted
before you start driving. Inside mirror
HB4003BB
The inside mirror has a day and night position. Pull the tab at the bottom
of the mirror toward you for the night position. Push it away for the day
position. The night position reduces glare from headlights.
Auto-dimming mirror/compass (if equipped)
HB6019BB
The auto-dimming mirror/compass has an anti-glare feature which au-
tomatically reduces glare coming from headlights of vehicles behindyou. It also contains a built-in compass.

By pressing and releasing the left button, the automatic dimming
function is toggled on or off. When the automatic dimming function is
on, the auto dimming indicator light (green) located to the right of the
button will illuminate. By pressing and releasing the right button, the compass display is
toggled on or off. When the compass is on, an illuminated compass
reading will appear in the lower part of the mirror.
Even with the mirror in anti-glare mode, the mirror surface turns bright
if the transmission is shifted into reverse. This is to ensure good rear-
ward visibility during reversing. n Photosensors
HB6020BA
The mirror has a photosensor attached on both the front and back
sides. If the glare from the headlights of vehicles behind you strikes
the mirror, these sensors detect it and make the reflection surface of
the mirror dimmer to help prevent you from being blinded. For this
reason, use care not to cover the sensors with stickers, or other simi-
lar items. Periodically wipe the sensors clean using a piece of dry soft
cotton cloth or an applicator. nCompass calibration
1. For optimum calibration, switch off all nonessential electrical ac-
cessories (rear window defogger, heater/air conditioning system,
spotlight, etc.) and ensure all doors are shut.
2. Drive to an open, level area away from large metallic objects or

3-30
structures and make certain the ignition switch is in the “ON” position.
3. Press and hold the left button for 3 seconds then release, and the compass will enter the calibration mode. “CAL” and direction will be
displayed.
4. Drive slowly in a circle until “CAL” disappears from the display
(about two or three circles). The compass is now calibrated.
5. Further calibration may be necessary should outside influences
cause the mirror to read inaccurately. You will know that this has oc-
curred if your compass begins to read in only limited directions.
Should you encounter this situation, return to step one of the above
procedure and recalibrate the mirror. n Compass zone adjustment
1. The zone setting is factory preset to Zone 8. Refer to the “Com-
pass calibration zone ” map at the end of this manual to verify that the
compass zone setting is correct for your geographical location.
2. Press and hold the right button for 3 seconds then release, and the
word “ZONE” will briefly appear and then the zone number will be dis-
played.
3. Press the right hand button repeatedly to cycle the display through
all possible zone settings. Stop cycling when the correct zone settingfor your location is displayed.
4. Releasing the button for 3 seconds will exit the zone setting mode.
Outside mirrors Convex mirror (Passenger side)
WARNING
Objects look smaller in a convex mirror and farther away than
when viewed in a flat mirror. Do not use the convex mirror tojudge the distance of vehicles behind you when changing lanes.
Use the inside mirror (or glance backwards) to determine theactual size and distance of objects that you view in convex mir-
ror.
