Keep the inside and outside mirrors
clean and adjusted for best visibility.
Be sure to adjust the mirrors before

headlights behind you.
On models without navigation systemThe inside mirror can automatically
darken to reduce glare. To turn on
this feature, press the button on the
bottom of the mirror. The AUTO
indicator comes on as a reminder.
When it is on, the mirror darkens
when it senses the headlights of a
vehicle behind you, then returns to
normal visibility when the lights are
gone. Press the button again to turn
off this feature.
There is also a sensor on the back of
the mirror. Items hung on the mirror
may block this sensor and affect its
performance.
