center view through the rear window is
seen. Make this adjustment before you
start driving.

Electrochromic mirror (ECM)
(if equipped)
The electric rearview mirror automatical- ly controls the glare from the headlights
of the vehicles 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 the
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.
