MIRROR SYSTEM


  1. FUNCTION OF MAIN COMPONENTS

    Component Function
    Rear Window Defogger Switch

    • Inputs a mirror heater operation signal to the air conditioning amplifier assembly.*1

    • Inputs a mirror heater operation signal to the timer circuit built into the No. 2 heater control sub-assembly.*2
    Air Conditioning Amplifier Assembly*1 Operates and controls the mirror heater system in accordance with the signals from the rear window defogger switch.
    No. 2 Heater Control Sub-assembly*2 Operates and controls the mirror heater system in accordance with the signals from the rear window defogger switch.

    • *1: Models with automatic air conditioning system

    • *2: Models with manual air conditioning system

  2. SYSTEM CONTROL


    1. Operating Condition


      1. Mirror Heater Function


        • The timer heaters are activated when the ignition switch is turned to ON and the rear window defogger switch is pushed. The timer circuit*1 built into the air conditioning amplifier assembly*2 or No. 2 heater control sub-assembly keeps the mirror heaters and defogger heater on for approximately 15 minutes.


          • *1: Models with manual air conditioning system

          • *2: Models with automatic air conditioning system

  3. FUNCTION


    1. The outer rear view mirror assemblies have the following functions:

      Function Outline
      Electric Remote Mirror Remote Control Function The adjustment axis of the mirror surface of the electric remote mirrors can be controlled by using the outer mirror switch assembly.
      Manual Retractable Function*1 The outer mirror switch assembly can be used to retract the outer rear view mirror assemblies.
      Mirror Heater Function*2

      • The mirror heaters use a heater element in both outer rear view mirrors to help defog them.

      • The mirror heaters are controlled by the timer circuit built into the air conditioning amplifier assembly*3 or No. 2 heater control subassembly*4.

      • *1: Models with manual retractable function

      • *2: Models with mirror heater function

      • *3: Models with automatic air conditioning system

      • *4: Models with manual air conditioning system
