.If the mirrors were folded or un-
folded by hand, there is a chance
that the mirror will move forward or
backward during driving. If the mir-
rors were folded or unfolded by
hand, be sure to adjust them again
electrically before driving.NOTE:.If the switch is operated continuously,
the mirror may stop before movement
is completed. This does not indicate
that there is a malfunction. Wait a few
moments, then operate the switch
again.
. If the mirrors were folded or unfolded
by hand, the mirrors may start moving
when the ignition switch is set to the
Acc or ON position.
. When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, operating the rear window
defroster will also remove frost and
fog from the outside mirrors.
