Adjustable Pedals (if
equipped) The adjustable pedals system is
designed to allow greater range of
pedals positions enabling driver
comfort with regard to the steering
wheel tilt and the seat position.
This feature allows the brake and
accelerator pedals to move toward or
away from the driver’s feet.
The switch is located on the front side
of the driver's seat cushion shield.
Press the switch downward to move
the pedals forward (toward the front
of the vehicle).
Lift the switch upward to move the
pedals rearward (toward the driver).
WARNING!
Do not adjust the pedals position while the vehicle is moving. You could
lose control and have an accident.
Always adjust the pedals position
while the vehicle is parked.
The following messages will be
displayed
if the driver is attempting to
adjust the pedals when the system is
locked out:
• “Adjustable Pedals Unavailable
While Reversing”;
• or “Adjustable Pedals Unavailable
While Cruise Engaged”.
NOTE:
For vehicles equipped with driver
memory seat, use your key fob (RKE)
transmitter or the memory buttons on
the driver's door trim panel to return
the adjustable pedals to programmed
positions. See “Driver Memory Seat
(for versions/markets, where
provided)” in section “Understanding
the Vehicle” for further information.
CAUTION!
Do not place any object under the
adjustable pedals or obstruct their
movements as it may cause damage to
the pedal controls. Pedal movement
may become limited if there is an
obstruction in the adjustable pedal's.Rearview Mirrors External Mirrors External mirrors can be adjusted
electrically and are equipped with
anti-mist resistors operated by the air
conditioning system (see “Air
Conditioning Controls” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
The mirrors can be closed electrically
and will yield in both directions in case
of a collision.
The external mirrors are
electrochromic, which means, they
automatically operate an anti-glare
function by gradually shading as the
light hitting the mirrors increases.
The external rear-view electrochromic
mirrors work in conjunction with the
internal rear-view electrochromic
mirror.
NOTE:
• The mirrors can be adjusted
electrically only with the ignition
device in ACC and RUN position.
• When the vehicle is started, the
indicator light shown in the picture
will momentarily illuminate in both
outside rear-view mirrors to let the
