CAUTION
Do not adjust the mirror while the
vehicle is moving. Doing so may
cause the driver to mishandle the ve-
hicle and an accident may occur re-
sulting in death or injuries.
Adjust the mirror so that you can just
see the rear of your vehicle in the mir-
ror.
This mirror is equipped with auto anti
glare function. The function is designed
to reduce glare from the headlights of
the vehicle behind you during night
driving.
When the ignition key is inserted and
turned on, the inside rear view mirror al-
ways turns on in the “AUTO” mode.
The “AUTO” indicator illuminates to show
you that the function is on.In “AUTO” mode, if the mirror detects light
from the headlights of the vehicle behind
you, the mirror surface darkens slightly to
reduce the reflected light.
To turn off the automatic function, press
the switch on the “OFF” side.
To turn on the automatic function again,
press the switch on the “AUTO” side.
Adjust it before driving so that the rear
view is in the best condition.
When the outside air temperature is low,
it may take little longer for the mirror to
darken in response to the detection of
headlights.

hicle and an accident may occur re-
sulting in death or serious personal
injuries.
