of the car behind you in nighttime or low
light driving conditions. The sensormounted in the mirror senses the light
level around the vehicle, and automati-cally controls the headlight glare from
vehicles behind you.
When the engine is running, the glare is
automatically controlled by the sensor
mounted in the rearview mirror.
Whenever the shift lever is shifted into
reverse (R), the mirror will automatically
go to the brightest setting in order to
improve the drivers view behind the vehi-
cle.

ed by a low fuel warning light, which will
illuminate when the fuel tank is nearly
empty.
On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge
pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier than
usual due to the movement of fuel in thetank.Outside thermometer

played in 1°C (1°F) increments. The tem-
perature range is between -40°C ~ 60°C(-40°F ~ 140°F).

may not change immediately like a
general thermometer to prevent the
driver from being inattentive.

al fuel as soon as possible after thewarning light comes on or when the
gauge indicator comes close to the
