the clear state to the non-glare state when bright lights (glare) reach the
mirror. When the mirror detects bright light from behind, it will
automatically adjust (darken) to minimize glare at night only.
The mirror will automatically return to the clear state whenever the
vehicle is placed in R (Reverse)(when the mirror is on).
Do not block the sensor on the backside of the mirror since this may
impair proper mirror performance. (Examples: no parking stickers or
hanging tags.)
Ensure the mirror is pulled down low enough to prevent visibility
interference with the overhead console. The mirror support arm has two
pivot points which lets you adjust the mirror UP or DOWN and from
SIDE to SIDE.
Without Navigation System
Press the control to turn the mirror
on. Press the control again to turn
the mirror off.
With Navigation System
The illuminated LED to the right of
the AUTO button indicates if the
mirror is in the auto-dimming
function. To turn the mirror off push
the OFF button until the LED goes
out.
Electronic compass (if equipped)
The compass reading will remain accurate during most driving
conditions. Unknown to the driver, the compass is continuously
re-calibrating due to changing magnetic fields and subtle, slow changes
in vehicle magnetics which can occur over the life of the vehicle. If
heading appears inaccurate re-calibrate mirror, refer toCompass
calibration adjustment.
