again and the alarm will automatically be
set.)

Using the door lock switch

Carry only one of the keys (including the card key) to which you want to link the driving
position. If 2 or more keys are in the vehicle, the driving position cannot be linked properly.

While pressing the recalled switch, press
and hold the door lock switch (either lock

Automatic mode allows the folding or extending of the mirrors to be linked to locking/

To set to automatic mode, put the switch in
the neutral position.

The indicator will come on.

■ Linked mirror function when reversing

When the mirror select switch is in the “L” or “R” position, the outside rear view mirrors will
automatically angle downwards when the vehicle is reversing in order to give a better view
of the ground. 
To disable this function, move the mirror select switch to the neutral position (between “L”
and “R”).

■ Adjusting the mirror angle when the vehicle is reversing

With the shift lever in R, adjust the mirror angle at a desired position. 
The adjusted angle will be memorized and the mirror will automatically tilt to the memorized
angle whenever the shift lever is shifted to R from next time.

The memorized downward tilt position of the mirror is linked to the normal position
(angle adjusted with the shift lever in other than R). Therefore, if the normal position is
changed after adjustment, the tilt position will also change. 
When the normal position is changed, readjust the angle in reversing.
