Interior rearview mirror
The interior rearview mirror has an auto-dim function that helps reduce glare from follow-ing vehicle's headlights.
Auto-dim functionThe interior rearview mirror’s auto-dim func-tion is controlled by two sensors: one point-ing forward (located on the forward-facingside of the mirror, which monitors the amountof ambient light) and one pointing rearward(located on the side of the mirror facing thedriver at the upper edge, which senses thestrength of following vehicles' headlights),and work together to help eliminate glare.
NOTE

Digital compass*
The rear-view mirror has an integrated display that shows the compass direction in whichthe vehicle is traveling.
OperationEight different directions are shown with the abbreviations: N (north), NE (north east), E(east), SE (southeast), S (south), SW (south-
west), W (west) and NW (northwest).
CalibrationNorth America is divided into 15 magnetic zones and the compass will need to be cali-brated if the vehicle is driven into a new one(see the magnetic zones on the map in thefollowing section "Selecting a magneticzone"). To do so: 
1. Stop the vehicle in a large open area, safely out of traffic and away from steel structures and high-tension electricalwires. 2. Start the vehicle.
NOTE
•
For best calibration results, switch off all electrical equipment in the vehicle(climate system, windshield wipers,audio system, etc.) and make sure thatall doors are closed.
• Calibration may not succeed or beincorrect if the vehicle's electricalequipment is not switched off.
3. 
4. Press and hold the button for 3 seconds
until the number of the current magnetic zone is displayed.
5. Press the button repeatedly until the number of the desired magnetic zone (
1-15) is displayed. See the magnetic
zones on the map in the following section "Selecting a magnetic zone").
6. Wait until 
C is again displayed in the mir-
ror.
7. Drive slowly in a circle at a speed of no more than 6 mph (10 km/h) until a direc- tion is displayed. This indicates that cali-bration is complete.
8. Drive around in a circle an additional two times to fine-tune the calibration.
