AUTOMATIC DIMMING REAR VIEW MIRROR
Your vehicle is equipped with an inside rear view mirror with an
auto-dimming function. The electronic day/night mirror will change from
the normal state to the non-glare state when bright lights (glare) reach
the inside rear view mirror. When the inside rear view mirror detects
bright light from in front of or behind the vehicle, the inside rear view
mirror will automatically adjust (darken) to minimize glare.
Do not block the sensor on the backside of the inside rear view mirror
since this may impair proper system performance.
Press the control to turn the mirror
on or off.
The mirror will automatically return
to the normal state whenever the
vehicle is placed in R
(Reverse)(when the mirror is on) to ensure a bright clear view when
backing up.

Use caution in certain instances (i.e. automatic car washes) in order to
avoid damage to the mirrors.
Signal mirrors
When the turn signal is activated,
the outer portion of the appropriate
mirror housing will blink red.
This provides an additional warning
to other drivers that your vehicle is

automatically to remove ice, mist
and fog when the rear window
defrost is activated.
Do not remove ice from the mirrors
with a scraper or attempt to

cause damage to the glass and
mirrors.
