On-Vehicle Inspection

  1. CHECK MEMORY AND REACTIVATION FUNCTION 
    1. Turn the ignition switch ON and move the shift lever to the P position.
    2. Check the seat memory (driver side) M1 switch.
      1. Using the outer mirror switch, move the mirror as much as possible to the left.
      2. Press and hold down switches M1 and SET. Check that the buzzer sounds for 0.5 seconds, signaling that the outer mirror position has been recorded.
      3. Change the position of the outer mirror and then press the M1 switch. Check that the buzzer sounds for 0.1 seconds and the outer mirror automatically moves to the position in step (b)-( 1).
    3. Check the M2 switch.
      1. Using the outer mirror switch, move the mirror to the as much as possible to the right.
      2. Press and hold down switches M2 and SET. Check that the buzzer sounds for 0.5 seconds, signaling that the outer mirror position has been recorded.
      3. Change the position of the outer mirror and then press the M2 switch. Check that the buzzer sounds for 0.1 seconds and the outer mirror automatically moves to the position in step (c)-( 1).
    4. When the outer mirror is in the driving position: Check that switches M1 and M2 cause the outer mirror to move to the recorded outer mirror positions under these conditions: turn the ignition switch OFF, remove the key from the key cylinder, open the driver side door and press M1 or M2 within 30 seconds.
    5. Check that the following procedures will erase the recorded outer mirror positions of switches M1 and M2: press and hold the power seat slide switch; disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal; and wait for at least 1 minute.
    6. Check that the outer mirror position is not, memorized when the M1, M2 and SET switches are pressed and held simultaneously.
