1654-4. Adjusting the steering wheel and mirrors

Operation of each component
MIRAI_OM_USA_OM62073U
When the mirror select switch is in the “L” or “R” position, th e outside
rear view mirrors will automati cally angle downwards when the v ehicle
is reversing in order to give a better view of the ground.
To disable this function, move the mirror select switch to the neutral
position (between “L” or “R”)
■Adjusting the mirror angle when the vehicle is reversing
With the shift position in R, adjust the mirror angle at a desi red posi-
tion.
The adjusted angle will be memori zed and the mirror will automati-
cally tilt to the memorized angle whenever the shift position i s
shifted to R from next time.
The memorized downward tilt position of the mirror is linked to the nor-
mal position (angle adjusted with the shift position in other t han R).
Therefore, if the normal position is changed after adjustment, the tilt
position will also change.
When the normal position is changed, readjust the angle in reversing.
■ Mirror angle can be adjusted when
The power switch is in ACCESSORY or ON mode.
■ Rain clearing mirrors
The coating on the mirror has the rain clearing (hydrophilic) e ffect to make the
rear view clearer in raining. When water droplets collect on th e mirror surface,
this effect causes the droplets to be spread out into a film.
● The rain clearing effect will be reduced temporarily, when the dirt is adhered
to the mirror or after your vehicle is parked for a long time in underground or
indoor parking lots, etc., where there is no direct sunlight.
However, the effect will gradually recover after 1- or 2-day ex posure to direct
sunlight.
● If you want to restore the rain clearing effect immediately, co nduct the resto-
ration work. ( P. 353)
■ When the mirrors are fogged up
The outside rear view mirrors can be cleared using the mirror d efoggers. Turn
on the rear window defogger to turn on the outside rear view mi rror defog-
gers. ( P. 309)
■ Automatic adjustment of the mirror angle
A desired mirror face angle can be entered to memory and recall ed automati-
cally by the driving position memory. ( P. 154)

NOTICE
■Avoiding damage to vehicle parts
● Do not turn the steering wheel fully in either direction and ho ld it there for
an extended period of time.
Doing so may damage the power steering motor.
● When driving over bumps in the road, drive as slowly as possibl e to avoid
damaging the wheels, underside of the vehicle, etc.
■ If you get a flat tire while driving
A flat or damaged tire may cause the following situations. Hold the steering
wheel firmly and gradually depress the brake pedal to slow down the vehi-
cle.
● It may be difficult to control your vehicle.
● The vehicle will make abnormal sounds or vibrations.
● The vehicle will lean abnormally.
Information on what to do in case of a flat tire ( P. 432)
■ When encountering flooded roads
Do not drive on a road that has flooded after heavy rain, etc. Doing so may
cause the following serious damage to the vehicle:
● Fuel cell system stalling
● Short in electrical components
● Fuel cell system damage caused by water immersion
In the event that you drive on a flooded road and the vehicle i s flooded, be
sure to have your Toyota dealer check the following:
● Fuel cell system
● Brake function
● Changes in quantity and quality of transmission fluid, etc.
● Lubricant condition for the bearings and suspension joints (whe re possi-
ble), and the function of all joints, bearings, etc.
If the shift control system is damaged by flooding, it may not be possible to
shift the shift position to P, or from P to other positions. Wh en the shift posi-
tion cannot be changed from P to any other position, the front wheels will
lock, and you will be unable to tow the vehicle with the front wheels on the
ground, as the front wheels may be locked. In this case, transp ort the vehi-
cle with both front wheels or all four wheels lifted.
■ If the vehicle will not shift out of the P position
There is a possibility that the 12-volt battery is discharged. Check the
12-volt battery in this situation.

Modes can be changed by pressing the power switch with brake pedal
released. (The mode changes each time the switch is pressed.)
Off
The emergency flashers can be
used.
ACCESSORY mode
Some electrical components such
as the audio system can be used.
“Accessory” will be displayed on
the main display.
ON mode
All electrical components can be
used.
“Ignition On” will be displayed on
the main display.
■ Auto power off function
If the vehicle is left in ACCESSORY mode for more than 20 minut es or ON
mode (the fuel cell system is not operating) for more than an h our with the
shift position in P, the power switch will automatically turn o ff. However, this
function cannot entirely prevent 12-volt battery discharge. Do not leave the
vehicle with the power switch in ACCESSORY or ON mode for long periods
of time when the fuel cell system is not operating.

In the following situations, if the situation has changed (or the vehicle has
been driven for some time) and the normal operating conditions are
detected, the message will disappear and the system will become opera-
tional.
If the message does not disappear, contact your Toyota dealer.
• When the temperature around the radar sensor is outside of the opera- tional range, such as when the vehicle is in the sun or in an e xtremely
cold environment
