Vehicle controls
僅 Use your interior rear view mirror or direct observation to determine the actual distance
of following vehicles when changing lanes.
僅 Do not adjust or fold the outside rear view mirrors while the vehicle is moving. This could
result in loss of control, and an accident which could cause DEATH, SERIOUS INJURY, or
property damage.
CAUTION
僅 Do not scrape ice off the mirror face; this may damage the surface of the glass. If ice
should restrict the movement of the mirror, do not force the mirror for adjustment. To
remove ice, use a deicer spray, or a sponge or soft cloth with warm water.
僅 If the mirror is jammed with ice, do not adjust the mirror by force. Use an approved
spray de-icer (not cooling system antifreeze) to release the frozen mechanism or move
the vehicle to a warm place and allow the ice to melt.
僅 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, the motor may be damaged.
僅 Do not attempt to adjust the outside rear view mirror by hand. Doing so may damage
the parts.
僅 The electric type outside rear view mirror operates even though the vehicle is in the OFF
position. However, to prevent unnecessary battery discharge, do not adjust the mirrors
longer than necessary while the vehicle is not running.
僅 In case it is an electric type outside rear view mirror, don't fold it by hand. It could cause
motor failure.
僅 We recommend following the procedures in an orderly manner to change or initialize
the auto reversing user settings. If you move to the next step before completing the pre-
vious one, the changed angle may not be changed or initialization may not work prop-
erly.
Digital Side Mirror (DSM) (if equipped)
The digital side mirror is an outdoor mirror replacement device that helps you change
lanes safely by checking the video of the vehicle following you on a monitor inside the
vehicle when changing lanes.

WARNING
Do not adjust or fold the DSM camera while driving. It may affect driving and cause an
accident.
CAUTION
僅 Since the digital side mirror expresses the rear view as an image, it may look different
from the actual view and you cannot see the view outside the set position. Be extra care-
ful when driving.
