WARNING:
o For maximum effectiveness in case
of an accident the headrest should be
adjusted so the middle of the head-
rest is at the same height as the top of
the occupant's eyes. For this reason,
the use of a cushion that holds the
body away from the seatback is not
recommended.
o Do not operate vehicle with the head-
rests removed as injury to the occu-
pants may occur in the event of an
accident. Headrests may provide pro-
tection against neck injuries when
properly adjusted.
o Do not adjust the headrest hejght while
the vehicle is in motion.
B083D01NF-AATActive Headrests (If Installed)The active headrest is designed to move
forward and upward during a rear impact.
This helps to prevent the driver's and front
passenger's head from moving backward
and thus helps prevent neck injuries.

4. Changing Mirror Angle setting
(If Installed):Due to mirror positions being angled to-
wards the driver, the compass mirror can
also compensate for drivers seated on the
Left Hand side of the vehicle (steering
wheel on the LH side of the vehicle) or
Right Hand side of the vehicle (steering
wheel on the RH side of the vehicle).
To adjust the Left Hand, “L” or Right Hand,
“R”, setting:
1. Press and hold the button for more than
12 seconds.
2. Release then press the button to toggle
between “L” and “R”.NOTE:This procedure also causes the com-
pass to be de-calibrated.
3. To re-calibrate the compass, drive the
vehicle in 2 complete circles at less than
8km/h (5mph).
CAUTION:
1. Do not install the ski rack, antenna,
etc. which are attached to the vehicle
by means of a magnet. They affect the
operation of the compass.
2. If the compass deviates from the cor-
rect indication soon after repeated
adjustment, have the compass
checked at an authorized dealer.
3. The compass may not indicate the
correct compass point in tunnels or
while driving up or down a steep hill.
(The compass returns to the correct
compass point when the vehicle
moves to an area where the geomag-
netism is stabilized.)
4. When cleaning the mirror, use a paper
towel or similar material dampened
with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass
cleaner directly on the mirror as that
may cause the liquid cleaner to enter
the mirror housing.

POWER STEERING FLUID
LEVELG230A03A-AATThe power steering fluid level should be
checked regularly. To check the power
steering fluid level, be sure the engine is
"OFF", then check to make certain that the
power steering fluid level is between the
"MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the
fluid reservoir.NOTE:Grinding noise from the power steering
pump may be heard immediately after
the engine is started in extremely cold
conditions (below - 4°F). If the noise stops
during warm up, there is no abnormal
function in the system. It is due to a
power steering fluid characteristic in
extremely cold conditions.
