INTERIOR MIRROR

mirror
This automatically and gradually
changes between the day and night
positions. To prevent dazzling, the
glass of the mirror darkens automati-
cally depending on the intensity of the
light from behind. It clears as the light
(headlamps of following vehicles, sun-
light) decreases, ensuring maximum
visibility.

and passenger mirrors are, in
reality, closer than they ap-
pear.

der to judge the distance of vehicles
approaching from behind correctly.

control A to the central position
