1-3. Adjustable components (seats, mirrors, steering wheel)
■Linked mirror function when reversing (vehicles with driving position memory)
The outside rear view mirrors will automa tically angle downwards when the vehicle
is reversing in order to give a better view of the ground. However, this function will
not operate when the mirror select switch is in the neutral position (between “L” and
“R”).
■Auto anti-glare function (vehicles with sports or luxury package)
When the anti-glare inside rear view mirror is set to “AUTO” mode, the outside rear
view mirrors will activate in conjunction with the anti-glare inside rear view mirror to
reduce reflected light. ( P. 6 0 )
■Rain clearing mirrors
When water droplets collects on the mirror surface, for example when it rains, the
rain clearing (hydrophilic) effect of the mirrors causes the droplets to be spread out
into a film making the rear view clearer.In the following cases, the rain clearing
effect will be reduced temporarily, but wi ll return after 1 or 2 days' exposure to
direct sunlight.
●After wiping dirt off the mirrors
●When the mirrors fog up
●After waxing your vehicle in an automatic car wash
●After your vehicle has been parked for a long period in underground parking
lots, etc. where there is no direct sunlight.
