Seat warmers (if equipped)
Seat warmers are provided to warm the

where the operation of the seat warmer 
is not needed, keep the seat warmers 
OFF.
 WARNING
The seat warmers can cause a SERIOUS 
BURN, even at low temperatures and 
especially if used for long periods of 
time.
Passengers must be able to feel if the 
seat is becoming too warm so they can 
turn it off, if needed.
People who cannot detect temperature 
change or pain to the skin should 
use extreme caution, especially the 
following types of passengers:
•	 Infants, children, elderly or disabled 
persons, or hospital outpatients.
•	 People with sensitive skin or who 
burn easily.
•	 Fatigued individuals.
•	 Intoxicated individuals.
•	 People taking medication that can 
cause drowsiness or sleepiness.
 WARNING
NEVER place anything on the seat 
that insulates against heat when the 
seat warmer is in operation, such as a 
blanket or seat cushion. This may cause 
the seat warmer to overheat, causing a 
burn or damage to the seat.

Inside rearview mirror
Before driving your vehicle, check to 
see that your inside rearview mirror is 
properly positioned. Adjust the rearview 
mirror so that the view through the rear 
window is properly centered.
 WARNING
Make sure your line of sight is not 
obstructed. Do not place objects in the 
rear seat, cargo area, or behind the rear 
headrests which could interfere with 
your vision through the rear window.
 WARNING
To prevent serious injury during an 
accident or deployment of the air bag, 
do not modify the rearview mirror and 
do not install a wide mirror.
 WARNING
NEVER adjust the mirror while driving. 
This may cause loss of vehicle control 
resulting in an accident.
NOTICE
When cleaning the mirror, use a paper 
towel or similar material dampened 
with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass 
cleaner directly on the mirror as this 
may cause the liquid cleaner to enter 
the mirror housing.
Electric Chromic Mirror (ECM)  
(if equipped)
OTM050019[A] : Indicator
Some vehicles come equipped with an 
electrochromic mirror that helps control 
glare while driving at night or under low 
light driving conditions.
When the engine is running, the glare is 
automatically controlled by the sensor 
mounted in the rearview mirror. The 
sensor detects the light level around the 
vehicle, and automatically adjusts to 
control the headlamp glare from vehicles 
behind you.
Whenever the the gear is shifted to R 
(Reverse), the mirror will automatically 
go to the brightest setting in order to 
improve the driver’s view behind the 
vehicle.
