creases, so guaranteeing optimum
visibility.

bility during your manoeuvres, the
mirror lightens automatically when
reverse gear is engaged.

must be adjusted to reduce the
"blind spot". Automatic day/night model

progressively changes between the

warning lamp is displayed
on the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on
the multifunction screen.
