RETURNING TO THE RETRACTED POSITION
Push the connection of the wiper arm and wiper blade
downward.
NOTICE
To prevent the wiper blades from being deformed, be
sure to hold the connection of the wiper arm and wiper
blade securely.
REAR WINDOW AND OUTSIDE
REAR VIEW MIRROR DEFOGGER SWITCH
To turn the electric rear window and outside rear view
mirror defogger on, push the switch.
The ignition 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 surface. An indicator light is on when the defogger is
operating.
The system will automatically shut off when the defogger has
operated about 15 minutes.

SWITCHES
44
CAUTION
Since the mirror surfaces can get hot, do not touch them
when the switch is on.
If further defrosting or defogging is desired, simply actuate the
switch again. When the surface has cleared, push the switch
once again to turn the defogger of f. Continuous use may cause
the battery to discharge, especially during stop −and−go
driving. The defogger is not designed to dry rain water or to
melt snow.
If the outside rear view mirrors are heavily coated with ice, use
a spray de −icer before operating the switch.
NOTICE
 When cleaning the inside of the rear window, be
careful not to scratch or damage the heater wires or
connectors.
 To prevent the battery from being discharged, turn
the switch off when the engine is not running.
POWER WINDOW SWITCHES
1For driver’s window
2For front passenger’s window
3For left rear window
4For right rear window
To raise or lower the windows, use the switch on each
door. The passengers’ windows can also be controlled by
the switches on the driver’s door.
The power windows work when the ignition key is in the “ON”
position.
Retained accessory power operation: Even if the ignition
key is turned to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position with all the door\
s
closed, the window can be operated until a front door is opened
(or for 43 seconds).

OCCUPANT RESTRAINT SYSTEM
165
CAUTION
When using the lower anchorages for the child
restraint system, be sure that there are no irregular
objects around the anchorages or that the seat belt is
not caught.
 Push and pull the child restraint system in different
directions to be sure it is secure. Follow all the
installation instructions provided by its
manufacturer.
 Do not install a child restraint system on the rear seat
if it interferes with the lock mechanism of the front
seats. This can cause death or serious injury to the
child and front passenger in case of sudden braking
or a collision.
DRIVING POSITION MEMORY SYSTEM
The microcomputer can memorize the positions of the driver’s
seat, accelerator and brake pedals, and outside rear view
mirrors. Two different driving position profiles can be entered
into the computer’s memory.
Recording a driving position in the computer’s memory can
only be done when the ignition key is in the “ON” position and
the selector lever is in the “P” position.
Setting the driving position
1. Adjust the driver’s seat, accelerator and brake pedals,
and outside rear view mirrors to the desired position.
2. While pushing the “SET” button, push button “1” or “2”
until the signal beeps.
The beep sound means that the positions are recorded in the
computer’s memory.
