Before driving
GX460_OM_OM60J63U_(U)
■Mirror angle can be adjusted when
The “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in ACCESSORY or IGNITION ON mode.
■When the mirrors are fogged up
Turn on the mirror heaters to defog the mirrors. (→P. 4 1 7 )
■Linked mirror function when reversing
The outside rear view mirrors will automatically 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”).
■Automatic adjustment of the mirror angle
A desired mirror face angle can be entered to memory and recalled automatically
by the driving position memory. ( →P. 8 2 )
■Auto anti-glare function (if equipped)
When the anti-glare inside rear view mirror is set to automatic mode, the outside
rear view mirrors will activate in conjunction with the anti-glare inside rear view mir-
ror to reduce reflected light.

NOTICE
■Camera sensor
●Keep the windshield clean at all times.
LDA performance may deteriorate due to the presence of raindrops, condensa-
tion, ice or snow on the windshield.
●Do not subject the camera sensor to strong impact or force, and do not disas-
semble the camera sensor.
●Do not change the installation position of the camera sensor or remove it. The
direction of the camera sensor is precisely adjusted.
●When it is cold, using the heater with air blowing to the feet may cause the upper
part of the windshield to fog up. This will have a negative effect on the images. In
such a case, use the windshield defogger to provide warm, dry air to the wind-
shield.
●Do not place anything on the dashboard.
The camera sensor may recognize the image reflected on the windshield as lane
markings by mistake.
●Do not scratch the camera lens, or let it get dirty.
●Do not attach stickers or other items to the windshield near the camera sensor.
●Adjust the inside rear view mirror correctly so that it does not interfere with the
camera sensor.
Observe the following to ensure that the
LDA system functions correctly.

3-1. Using the air conditioning system and defogger
GX460_OM_OM60J63U_(U)Rear outlets (vehicles without a re
ar automatic air conditioning sys-
tem)
Direct air flow to the left or right,
up or down.
Turn the knob to open or close
the vent.
■Air conditioning system settings
When the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is turned on, the air conditioning system
settings will be set to those that were in use the last time the “ENGINE START
STOP” switch was turned off.
Air conditioning system settings are memorized individually on each electronic key,
so the settings reproduced will be specific to the key that is used.
■Using automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically according to the temperature setting and ambi-
ent conditions. As a result, the following may occur.
●Immediately after the switch is pressed, the fan may stop for a while until warm
or cool air is ready to flow.
●Cool air may flow to the area around the upper body when the heater is on.
