Your vehicle is equipped with both left-hand and right-hand outside rearview mirrors. The mirrors can be adjusted with the mirror adjustment control switch. Adjust the outside rearview mirrors to your desired position before driving. The outside rearview mirrors can be folded to help prevent damage when going through an automatic car wash or when passing through a narrow street.

The left and right outside rearview mirrors are convex.

Objects in mirror are closer than they appear.

Use the outside rearview mirror or turn your head and look to determine the actual distance of other vehicles prior to changing lanes.

Do not adjust or fold the outside rearview mirrors while driving. This may cause loss of vehicle control resulting in an accident.

  • Do not scrape ice off the mirror face; this may damage the surface of the glass.

  • If the mirror is jammed with ice, do not adjust the mirror by force. Use an approved de-icer (not radiator antifreeze) spray, or a sponge or soft cloth with very warm water, or move the vehicle to a warm place and allow the ice to melt.

  • Do not clean the mirror with harsh abrasives, fuel or other petroleum based cleaning products.

2C_AdjustSideViewMirror

  1. Move the lever (1) either to the L (left side) or R (right side) to select the rearview mirror you would like to adjust.

  2. Use the mirror adjustment control (2) to position the selected mirror up, down, left or right.

  3. After adjustment, move the lever (1) to the middle to prevent inadvertent adjustment.

  • The mirrors stop moving when they reach the maximum adjusting angles, but the motor continues to operate while the switch is pressed. Do not press the switch longer than necessary, because this can damage the motor.

  • Do not attempt to adjust the rearview mirrors by hand, because this can damage the motor.

The outside rear view mirrors automatically revert to their original positions if any of the following occur:

  • The Engine Start/Stop button is moved to either the OFF position or the ACC position.

  • The gear is shifted to any position except R (Reverse).

  • The outside rear view mirror adjustment button is not selected.

You may change the angle of the outside rear view mirror if it is difficult to see the rearview with the basic downward mirror angle provided when reversing.

When the vehicle is first delivered, the set downward angle of the left and right outside rear view mirror are different to ensure driver visibility.

  1. Make sure the vehicle is stopped.

  2. Depress the brake pedal and shift the gear to R (Reverse). When L or R switch is pressed, both outside rear view mirrors move downward to the basic set position.

  3. Press the L or R switch to select the outside rear view mirror you want to adjust. Then press "ƀ, Ɓ, Ƃ, ƃ" switch to adjust the outside rear view mirror to the desired angle.

  4. After adjusting the angle to save the adjusted outside rear view mirror angle, shift the gear to another position other than R (Reverse), or change the L and R switch to the neutral position (L and R switch is not pressed).

  5. Set the other outside rear view mirror following the above procedure 1 to 4.

Resetting reverse parking aid user settings mode

To change the outside rear view mirror angle back to the basic angle, shift the gear to R (Reverse), and adjust the mirror angle higher than when the gear is in P (Park), N (Neutral) and D (Drive).

When changing the angle of both outside rear view mirrors, it is recommended to change the angle one side at a time following the procedure 1 to 4.
