About the reverse link functionÿ
When either L or R of the mirror adjustment switch is selected, the mirror surface will face
downward when reversing, making it easier to see below. When not
using this function, do not select L or R for the mirror adjustment switch.
ÿ When adjusting the downward angle when reversing
With the shift lever in R, you can adjust the downward movement angle by adjusting the
position of the mirror surface. From
the next time onwards, every time you shift the shift lever to R, it will operate at that angle.
Since the downward movement angle is memorized based on the normal mirror position (when the shift lever
is in a position other than R), if the normal mirror position is changed after adjustment, the mirror position
during reversing will also change accordingly.
If you change the normal mirror position, adjust the downward angle when backing up.

ÿ Operating conditions for mirror surface adjustment
When the power switch is in accessory mode or ON mode
ÿ When the mirror is fogged (vehicles with mirror heaters)
When the rear window defogger is activated, the mirror heaters are activated at the same time to
remove the fog. (ÿ P. 385) ÿAutomatic mirror angle
adjustmentÿ
If you register your preferred mirror angle in the position memory, it will be adjusted automatically.

clearing mirrorÿ
A coating with a hydrophilic effect that spreads water droplets adhering to the mirror surface into a
film is applied, improving rear visibility in rainy weather.
If the mirror surface is dirty, or if the car is parked in an underground or indoor parking lot where it is
not exposed to the sun for a long time, the hydrophilic effect will decrease. By doing so, the
hydrophilic effect gradually recovers.
• If you want to quickly recover the reduced hydrophilic effect, perform recovery work (ÿ P. 441).
