other devices plugged in overnight or when the vehicle is parked for
extended periods.

Automatic dimming interior rear view mirror (if equipped)
The interior rear view mirror has an auto-dimming function. The
electronic day/night mirror will change from the normal (high reflective)
state to the non-glare (darkened) state when bright lights (glare) reach
the mirror. When the mirror detects bright light from behind the vehicle,
it will automatically adjust (darken) to minimize glare.

vehicle is placed in R (Reverse) to ensure a bright clear view when
backing up.

rear view mirror since this may impair proper mirror
performance.
Note:A rear center passenger and/or raised rear center headrest (if

Do not clean the housing or glass of any mirror with harsh
abrasives, fuel or other petroleum-based cleaning products.
Note:If equipped with a rearview camera system, a video image will
display in the mirror when the vehicle is put in R (Reverse). As you shift
into any other gear from R (Reverse), the image will remain for a few
seconds and then turn off. Refer toRearview camera systemin the
