Electric chromic mirror (ECM) (if equipped)
The electric chromic mirror automat-
ically controls the glare from the
headlamps of the vehicles behind
during the night time or low light driv-
ing conditions. The sensor mounted
in the mirror senses the light level
around the vehicle, and automatical-
ly controls the headlamp glare from
following vehicles.
When the engine is running, the
glare is automatically controlled by
the sensor mounted in the rearview
mirror.
Whenever the shift lever is in R
(Reverse), the mirror automatically
sets to be in the brightest mode in
order to improve the driver's
rearview. When the ECM inside the
rear view mirror operates, it will oper-
ate.
When cleaning the mirror, use a
paper towel or clean cloth damp-
ened with glass cleaner. Do not
spray glass cleaner directly on the
mirror as that may cause the liq-
uid cleaner to enter the mirror
housing.
Reverse Parking Aid Function
When you set the shift lever in R
(Reverse), the outside rearview mir-
ror(s) will slightly rotate downwards
to aid the driver to drive backwards.

Left/Right: When either the L or R
switch is selected, both
outside rearview mirrors
will move.
Neutral: When neither of the switch-
es is selected, the outside
rearview mirrors will not
move.
The outside rearview mirrors will
automatically reset to their default
positions, when one of the followings
occurs:
The Engine Start/Stop Button is pressed to either the OFF position
or the ACC position.
The shift lever is not in R(Reverse).
