RVM Warning Indicator Light
The rear vehicle monitoring system alerts the driver to the presence of another vehicle in
an adjacent lane using the RVM warning indicator lights and the warning chime while the
system is operational.
RVM warning indicator light
The RVM warning indicator lights are installed to the left and right outside mirrors. The
warning indicator light illuminates when a vehicle approaching from the rear in an adjacent
lane is detected. A warning indicator light fl ashes when the direction indicator lever is
operated to the side where the RVM warning indicator light is illuminated to alert the driver.
Illumination dimmer cancel function
Normally, when the headlight switch is turned to the
or position, the brightness of
the RVM warning indicator lights is dimmed when they illuminate.
When driving on snow and fog bound roads where the brightness of the surrounding light
makes it diffi cult to see a RVM warning indicator light while it is dimmed, rotating the
instrument panel illumination knob clockwise fully cancels the dimmer function and restores
the brightness of the RVM warning indicator lights to full brightness.
