Understanding the Vehicle
Tilt both Mirrors in Reverse
This feature provides automatic
external rear-view mirrors positioning,
allowing the driver to view the ground
area behind the front doors. The
external mirrors will move slightly
downward from the current position
when the shift lever is shifted into
reverse. The external mirrors will then

return to the original position when
the lever is shifted out of the reverse
position. Each memory set of the
driver's seat (see "Driver Memory
Seat" chapter in section 3) corresponds
to a mirrors tilt position in reverse.
NOTE:
The mirrors tilt in reverse can be
turned on and off using the MTC
System, refer to "MTC Settings" in
section 4.
Folding Mirrors
The switch for the power folding
mirrors is located between the power
mirror switches.

Press the switch once and the mirrors
will fold in; press the switch a second
time to reset the mirrors to the
standard position.
If the mirrors are in the folded
position, and vehicle speed is equal or
greater than 10 mph (16 km/h), they
will automatically unfold.
CAUTION!
Never retract or open the mirrors
manually: it could damage the power
mechanism.
Internal Rearview Mirror
The internal rearview mirror can be
manually adjusted, and is equipped
with an accident-prevention release
system operating in the event of a
collision. Internal rearview mirror is
electrochromic: this function is
automatically deactivated in reverse to
ensure maximum visibility of obstacles.
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to the mirror during
cleaning, never spray any cleaning
solution directly onto the mirror. Apply
the solution onto a clean cloth and
wipe the mirror clean.
