• The right-hand section can only be foldedtogether with the centre section.
• If the entire backrest is to be folded thenthe different sections should be foldedseparately.If the centre backrest is being lowered - release and adjust the head restraint forthe centre backrest, see the earlier sec-tion "Head restraint, centre seat, rear".
The outer head restraints are lowered automatically when the outer backrestsare lowered. Pull up the backrest's lock- ing handle
while folding the backrest
forward at the same time. A red indicator on the lock catch
shows that the

Automatic dimming*Bright light from behind is automatically dimmed by the rearview mirror. The controlfor manual dimming is not available on mir-rors with automatic dimming. The rearview mirror contains two sensors - one forward facing and one rearward facing -that work together to identify and eliminatedazzling light. The forward facing sensordetects ambient light, while the rearward fac-ing sensor detects the light from vehicleheadlights behind.
NOTE
If the sensors are obscured by e.g. parking permits, transponders, sun visors orobjects in the seats or in the cargo area insuch a way that light is prevented fromreaching the sensors, then the dimmingfunction of the interior rearview and doormirrors is reduced.
The compass (p. 97) can only be specified for a rearview mirror with automatic dimming.

Compass*
The rearview mirror contains an integrated display that shows the compass direction inwhich the front of the car is pointing.
Operation
Rearview mirror with compass.
The upper right-hand corner of the rearview mirror has an integrated display that showsthe compass direction in which the front ofthe car is pointing. Eight different directions are shown with English abbreviations:
N(north), NE (north east), E (east), SE (south
east), S (south), SW (south west), W (west)
and NW (north west).
The compass is activated automatically when the car is started or when key position II is
active, see Key positions - functions at differ-ent levels (p. 70). To deactivate/activate thecompass - press in the button on the under- side of the mirror using a paper clip for exam-ple.
CalibrationThe compass may need calibrating to showthe correct compass direction. The earth is divided into 15 magnetic zones. The compass should be calibrated if the caris moved across several magnetic zones. Proceed as follows to perform calibration:
1. Stop the car in a large open area free
from steel structures and high-voltage power lines.
2. Start the car and switch off all electrical equipment (air conditioning, wipers, etc.)and ensure that all doors are closed.
NOTE
Calibration may fail or not start at all if electrical equipment is not switched off.
3. Hold the button on the underside of therearview mirror depressed approx. 3 seconds. The number of thecurrent magnetic zone is shown.
