Tilt steering wheel
13A035
To change the steering wheel angle,
hold the steering wheel, push down the
lock release lever, tilt the steering
wheel to the desired angle and return
the lever to its original position.
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.
Outside rear view mirrors—
13A036
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.
When you push the rear window defogger
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 74.)

74
To defog or defrost the rear window,
push the switch.
The key must be in the “ON” position.
The thin heater wires on the inside of the
rear window and the heater panels in the
outside rear view mirrors will quickly clear
the surfaces. An indicator light will illumi-
nate to indicate the defoggers are operat-
ing.
Push the switch once again to turn the
defoggers off.
CAUTION
Since the mirror surfaces can get hot,
do not touch them when the defogger
switch is on.
Make sure you turn the defoggers off
when the surfaces are clear. Leaving the
defoggers on for a long time could cause
the battery to discharge, especially during
stop−and−go driving. The defoggers are
not designed for drying rain water or for
melting snow.
If the outside rear view mirrors are heavi-
ly coated with ice, use a spray de−icer
before operating the switch.
NOTICE
To prevent the battery from being
discharged, turn the switch off
when the engine is not running.
When cleaning the inside of the
rear window, be careful not to
scratch or damage the heater wires
or connectors.
