The outside mirrors are heated to
remove fog and frost. With the
ignition switch in the ON (II)
position, turn on the heaters by
pressing the button. The indicator in
the button comes on as a reminder.
Press the button again to turn the
heaters off. Pressing this button also
turns the rear window defogger on
and off.

Depending on the position of the
selector switch, the left or right side
mirror will pivot downward slightly
when you shift the transmission into
reverse. In the left position, the left
mirror pivots. In the right position,
the right mirror pivots. This gives
you a better view of that side of the
vehicle while parallel parking. The
mirror returns to its original position
when you take the transmission out
of reverse. To turn this feature off,
leave the switch in the center
position.

Outside mirror positions can be
stored in the driving position
memory system (see page

).

When you finish, move the
selector switch to the center (off)
position. This turns off the
adjustment switch so you can’t
move a mirror out of position by
accidentally bumping the switch.

Move the selector switch to L
(driver’s side) or R (passenger’s
side).

Push the appropriate edge of the
adjustment switch to move the
mirror right, left, up, or down.
