The electronic day/night mirror will change

function at dusk or dawn. From the non-glare
state, the mirror will return to the normal state
after a short delay. The delay starts when the
glare goes away. The delay prevents excessive
changing of the mirror as traffic moves behind
and around the vehicle, or on rolling hills and
curves.
