5-44 Switches and controls
The mirror heaters can be used when the starter
switch is in the “ON” position. If you press this
switch when the mirrors are misted up, the heaters
in the mirrors on both sides will operate to defog
them. The lamp inside the switch comes on at
this time. Press the switch again when the mirrors
are clear. The heaters are automatically turned off
in about 30 minutes if the switch is left on.
CAUTION
Do not use the mirror heaters unless the engine
is running. Otherwise, the battery may become
drained, making it impossible to start the
engine.
WARNING
• During normal driving, the mirrors must be
in their outward positions and adjusted so
that clear rear views may be obtained
through them.
• When turning right or left, bear in mind the
difference in tracking of the front and rear
inner wheels, and use the rearview mirrors
to confirm safety behind you.
• Pay attention to the extended rearview
mirrors when driving on narrow roads.
Take particular care to ensure that they do
not hit pedestrians.
• If rainy weather, drops of water can adhere
to the mirrors, detracting from rearward
visibility.
Stop the vehicle and wipe off the water to
restore visibility.
