Digital Rear view Mir-
ror*
The Digital Rearview Mirror
is a system that uses the
camera on the rear of the
vehicle and displays its
image on the display of the
Digital Rearview Mirror.
The Digital Rearview Mirror
can be changed between
optical mirror mode and dig-
ital mirror mode by operat-
ing the lever.
The Digital Rearview Mirror
allows the driver to see the
rear view despite obstruc-
tions, such as the head
restraints or luggage, ensur-
ing rear visibility. Also, the
rear seats are not displayed
and privacy of the passen-
gers is enhanced.
WARNING
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may result in
death or serious injury.
■Before using the Digital Rear-
view Mirror
●Make sure to adjust the mirror
before driving. ( P.169)
• Change to optical mirror mode and adjust the position of the
Digital Rearview Mirror so that
the area behind your vehicle
can be viewed properly.

1984-1. Before driving
be C lb. (kg) as follows:
B
*2 lb. (kg) - A*1 lb. (kg) = C*3 lb.
(kg)
*1: A =Weight of people
*2: B =Total load capacity
*3: C =Available cargo and luggage load
In this condition, if 3 more passen-
gers with the combined weight of D
lb. (kg) get on, the available cargo
and luggage load will be reduced E
lb. (kg) as follows:
C lb. (kg) - D*4 lb. (kg) = E*5 lb.
(kg)
*4: D =Additional weight of people
*5: E =Available cargo and luggage load
As shown in the example above,
if the number of occupants
increases, the cargo and lug-
gage load will be reduced by an
amount that equals the
increased weight due to the
additional occupants. In other
words, if an increase in the num-
ber of occupants causes an
excess of the total load capacity
(combined weight of occupants
plus cargo and luggage load),
you must reduce the cargo and
luggage on your vehicle.

ried in the luggage compart-
ment

fire if loaded in the luggage com-
partment:
