Outside rear view mirrors—  
CAUTION  
D Do not adjust the steering wheel  
while the vehicle is moving. Doing  
so may cause the driver to mishan-  
dle the vehicle and an accident may  
occur resulting in death or serious  
injuries.  
D After adjusting the steering wheel,  
try moving it up and down to make  
sure it is locked in position.  
To change the steering wheel angle,  
hold the steering wheel, push the lock  
release lever, tilt the steering wheel to  
the desired angle and return the lever  
to its original position.  
Adjust the mirror so that you can see  
the side of your vehicle in the mirror.  
Be careful when judging the size or dis-  
tance 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 when seen in a flat  
mirror.

Vanity mirrors  
CAUTION  
Do not adjust the mirror while the  
vehicle is moving. Doing so may  
cause the driver to mishandle the ve-  
hicle and an accident may occur re-  
sulting in death or serious injuries.  
Adjust the mirror so that you can just  
see the rear of your vehicle in the mir-  
ror.  
To use the vanity mirror, swing down  
the sun visor and open the cover.  
To reduce glare from the headlights of  
the vehicle behind you during night  
driving, operate the lever on the lower  
edge of the mirror.  
Daylight driving—Lever at position 1  
The reflection in the mirror has greater  
clarity at this position.  
Night driving—Lever at position 2  
Remember that by reducing glare you also  
lose some rear view clarity.
