COMFORT ADJUSTMENT OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRRORS CAUTION D Do not adjust the mirror while the vehicle is moving. Doing so may cause the driver to mishandle the vehicle and an accident may occur resulting in death or serious injuries. 16sa09 D Since the mirror surfaces can get hot, do not touch them when the rear window and outside rear view mirror defogger switch is on. And do not touch the mirror surfaces also when the wiper switch is on at lower than 25_C (77_F) of the outside temperature. Adjust the mirror so that you can just see the side of your vehicle in the mirror. Be careful when judging the size or distance of any object seen in the outside rear view mirror on the passenger's side because it is a convex mirror. Any object seen in a convex mirror will look smaller and farther away than if seen in a normal flat mirror. When the inside rear view mirror darkens in "AUTO" mode, the outside rear view mirrors also darken to reduce the reflection of the headlights of the following vehicle. For details, see "Inside rear view mirror" on page 102. When you push the rear window defogger switch or turn on the wipers at lower than 25_C (77_F) of the outside temperature, the heater panels in the outside rear view mirrors will quickly clear the mirror surface. For details, see "Rear window and outside rear view mirror defogger switch" on page 28. 100
