(  P.209)
■Auto anti-glare function (if equipped)
When the anti-glare insi de rear view mirror 
is set to automatic mode, the outside rear 
view mirrors will activate in conjunction with 
the anti-glare inside rear view mirror to 
reduce reflected light. ( P.107)
■Automatic adjustment of the mirror 
angle (if equipped)
A desired mirror face angle can be entered 
to memory and recalled automatically by 
the driving position memory. ( P.100)
■Linked mirror function when reversing 
(if equipped)
When either “L” or “R”  of the mirror select 
switch is selected, the  outside rear view mir-
rors will automatically angle downwards 
when the vehicle is reversing in order to 
give a better view of the ground. To disable this function, select neither “L” 
nor “R”.
To set the mirror angle used when the vehi-
cle is reversing, adjust the mirror angle at a 
desired position with the shift lever in R.
The adjusted angle will be memorized and 
the mirror will automatically tilt to the mem-
orized angle whenever the shift lever is 
shifted to R from next time.
The memorized downward tilt position of 
the mirror is linked to the normal position 
(angle adjusted with th
e shift lever in other 
than R). Therefore, if the normal position is 
changed after adjustment, the tilt position 
will also change.
When the normal position is changed, read-
just the angle in reversing.
Push the mirror back in the direction of 
the vehicle’s rear.
