Power Outside Rear View Mirror Control
CAUTION:
If ice should jam the mirror, do not operate the control or scrape the mirror face. Use a spray deicer to free the mirror.
To adjust the outside power rear view mirror, first place the master switch at L (left) or R (right), and push the control switch on the desired side. The outside power rear view mirror can be adjusted when the key is in the ACC or ON position.
The outside rear view mirror has the following functions:
- Electrical Remote Control Type Mirror - When the mirror control switch is operated, this function moves the mirror surface vertically or laterally to enable the driver to attain an optimal mirror angle. Setting the mirror master switch to the R position operates the right mirror and to the L position operates the left mirror.
- Rear Window Defogger-Linked Mirror Heater - This function also automatically turns ON the mirror heater when the rear window defogger switch is turned ON. After 15 minutes have elapsed from the time this function has been activated, the rear window defogger turns OFF automatically, and the mirror heater also turns OFF.
- Automatic Glare-Resistant EC Mirror - This function prevents the glare of the headlights of the vehicle being driven behind that are reflected on the mirror from blinding the driver during nighttime driving. It works in unison with the inside rear view mirror to reduce the amount of reflection.
- Memory Function (Optional Equipment) - This function stores 2 mirror adjustment positions in the mirror memory ECU. Thus, the mirrors can be adjusted to the positions that are stored in the mirror memory ECU by pressing the memory switch. This function operates by linking with the driver seat position memorized in the memory seat ECU. For memory mirror information, see POWER SEATS article in SEATS.
