Interior rearview mirror The interior rearview mirror can be dimmed with a control in the mirror's lower edge. Alternatively,the rearview mirror dims automatically.
Control for dimming
Manual dimmingBright light from behind could be reflected in the rearview mirror and dazzle the driver. Use dim-ming with the dimming control when lights frombehind are distracting:
1. Use dimming by moving the control in
towards the passenger compartment.
2. Return to normal mode by moving the control towards the windscreen.
Automatic dimming *Bright light from behind is automatically dimmed by the rearview mirror. The control for manualdimming is not available on mirrors with auto-matic dimming. The rearview mirror contains two sensors - one forward facing and one rearward facing - thatwork together to identify and eliminate dazzlinglight. The forward facing sensor detects ambientlight, while the rearward facing sensor detectsthe light from vehicle headlights behind.
NOTE
If the sensors are obscured by e.g. parking permits, transponders, sun visors or objects inthe seats or in the cargo area in such a waythat light is prevented from reaching the sen-sors, then the dimming function of the interiorrearview and door mirrors is reduced.
Automatic dimming is always active while driving, apart from when gearbox reverse position isselected. Dimming sensitivity can be adjusted inthree levels and will affect the interior rearviewand the door mirrors.
NOTE
When sensitivity is changed there is no imme- diately noticeable change in dimming, but thechange will be complete after a while.
