STEERING WHEEL AND MIRRORS Automatic tilt away* OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRRORS G17003 G17004 When the engine switch is off, the steering column moves forward away from the driver and also tilts up for easy exit and entry. When you turn on the engine switch, the steering column returns to the previously set position. NOTE: *This feature can be deactivated. Ask your Lexus dealer for details. 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 209. When you push the rear window and outside rear view mirror defogger switch, the heater panels in the outside rear view mirrors will quickly clear the mirror surface. (See "Rear window and outside rear view mirror defogger switch" on page 56.) 205
