MIRROR SYSTEM

FUNCTION OF MAIN COMPONENTS

1. The main components in the mirror control system (with memory function) have the following functions:

   Component		Outline
   Outer Rear View Mirror Assembly LH/RH		Adjusts the angle of the mirror surface and retracts/returns the mirror according to control signals from the front multiplex network door ECU LH/RH.
   Front Multiplex Network Door ECU LH/RH		Receives operation requests/condition signals and operates the mirror motors. Inputs switch signals from the seat memory switch and outputs them to the multiplex network body ECU.*
   Central Gateway ECU (Network Gateway ECU)		Relays CAN communication signals.
   ECM		Sends shift position signals to the multiplex network body ECU via CAN communication.
   Main Body ECU (Multiplex Network Body ECU)		Inputs shift position signals from the ECM and outputs mirror surface operation command signals to the front multiplex network door ECU LH/RH. Memorizes/recalls the mirror surface position to/from the front multiplex network door ECU LH/RH.
   Certification ECU (Smart Key ECU Assembly)		Outputs door lock/unlock request signals from the entry lock/unlock function or wireless door lock/unlock function to the multiplex network body ECU.
   Courtesy Light Switch		Outputs driver door open/close signals to the multiplex network body ECU.
   Seat Memory Switch		Outputs "SET", "1", "2" and "3" switch operation signals to the front multiplex network door ECU LH/RH.
   Outer Mirror Switch Assembly (Multiplex Network Master Switch Assembly)	Mirror Surface Angle Adjustment Switch	Outputs mirror surface angle adjustment signals to the front multiplex network door ECU LH/RH according to switch operations.
   	Right/Left Selector Switch	Outputs left/right switching signals to the front multiplex network door ECU LH/RH according to switch operations.
   	Retract/Return Switch	Outputs retract/return signals to the front multiplex network door ECU LH/RH according to switch operations.
   	Auto Retract/Return Switch	Outputs operation switching signals of the auto power retract/return function to the front multiplex network door ECU LH/RH according to switch operations.
   DLC3		The DTCs of malfunctioning parts can be read by connecting a diagnostic tool.

SYSTEM CONTROL

1. Automatic Glare-resistant Electrochromic (EC) Dimming Function (Models with EC Mirror)

   
   

   1. This function operates when both of the following conditions are met:

      
      

      • The AUTO switch of the inner rear view mirror assembly is pushed to select AUTO mode (when the engine switch is turned from off to on (IG), this system defaults to AUTO mode).

      • The inner rear view mirror assembly detects a large difference between the brightness of the surroundings and the headlights of a following car.

2. Reverse-linked Function (Models with Position Memory Function)

   
   

   1. This function operates when all of the following conditions are met:

      
      

      • The engine switch is on (IG).

      • Either the R or L position of the right/left selector switch has been selected.

      • The shift position is moved to R.

3. Memory System (Mirror Surface Position Memory Function) (Models with Position Memory Function)

   
   

   1. This function operates when any of the following conditions is met:

      
      

      • The seat memory switch is operated with the engine switch on (IG), the shift position in P and the mirror position stored in the memory system.

      • The seat memory switch is operated within approximately 180 seconds of opening the driver door with the engine switch off and the mirror position stored in the memory system.

      • The seat memory switch is operated within approximately 60 seconds of closing the driver door with the engine switch off and the mirror position stored in the memory system.

      • With the engine switch off, the driver door closed and the key ID registration of the memory call function complete, the doors are unlocked using the smart access system with push-button start or wireless door unlock function and then the driver door is opened.

FUNCTION

1. The outer rear view mirrors have the following functions:

   Function		Outline
   Electric Remote Mirrors	Remote Control Function	The adjustment axis of the mirror surface of the electric remote mirrors can be controlled by using the outer mirror switch (multiplex network master switch assembly).
   	Reverse-linked Function	This function tilts the mirror surface downward to improve visibility when reversing. If the mirror surface is adjusted via the outer mirror switch (multiplex network master switch assembly) while the reverse-linked function is operating, the new mirror position is stored as the default reverse-linked mirror position.
   Electric Retractable Mirrors	Manually-retractable Function	This function retracts the outside rear view mirrors when the retractable switch is pressed.
   	Automatically-retractable Function	When all doors are locked from the outside of the vehicle while the engine switch is off, the outside rear view mirrors are retracted. When all doors are unlocked from the outside of the vehicle while the engine switch is off, the outside rear view mirrors are returned to their original position.
   Automatic Glare-resistant Electrochromic (EC) Dimming Function		During nighttime driving, if a large difference in intensity exists between the surrounding light and the light reflected off the inner rear view mirror assembly from the headlights of a following car, the automatic glare-resistant Electrochromic (EC) dimming function automatically reduces the reflection rate of the inner and outer rear view mirrors and thus dampens the glare from the mirrors.
   Memory System		This system stores the driver seat, outer rear view mirror and tilt and telescopic steering positions. Up to 3 memory positions can be stored in the system memory and recalled.
