Adjust the mirror so that you can just
see the side of your vehicle in the mir-
ror.
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.With auto anti−glare inside rear view mir-
ror—
When the inside rear view mirror dark-
ens in automatic function mode, the
driver ’s outside rear view mirror also
darkens to reduce the reflection of the
headlights of the following vehicle. For

view mirror” on page 109 in this Sec-
tion.
When you push the rear window defog-
ger switch, the heater panels in the
outside rear view mirrors will quickly
clear the mirror surface. (See “Rear
window and outside rear view mirror
defoggers” on page 123 in Section

vehicle is moving. Doing so may
cause the driver to mishandle the
vehicle and an accident may occur
resulting in death or serious inju-
ries.
Since the mirror surfaces can get
hot, do not touch them when the
defogger switch is on.
NOTICE
The outside rear view mirrors are
fixed in place. Do not try to fold the
mirrors. It may damage the mirrors.
