Washing function
Heated washer nozzles *The washer nozzles are heated automatically in cold weather to help prevent the washer fluidfrom freezing.
High-pressure headlight washing *High-pressure headlight washing consumes alarge quantity of washer fluid. To save fluid, theheadlights are washed using two alternatives:
• Low/high beam headlights on.
The head-
lights will be washed the first time the wind-shield is washed. Thereafter, the headlightswill only be washed once for every five times the windshield is washed within a 10-minuteperiod.
• Parking lights on.
Optional Active Bending

Digital compass*
The rear-view mirror has an integrated display that shows the compass direction in which thevehicle is traveling.
Operation
Rearview mirror with compass.
Eight different directions are shown with the abbreviations: N (north), NE (north east), E (east),SE (southeast), S (south), SW (southwest), W(west) and NW (northwest).
The compass is displayed automatically when the vehicle is started or in ignition mode II. To switch
the compass on/off use a pen, paperclip or simi- lar object and press in the button on the under-side of the mirror.
CalibrationNorth America is divided into 15 magnetic zonesand the compass will need to be calibrated if thevehicle is driven into a new one (see the mag-netic zones on the map in the following section"Selecting a magnetic zone"). To do so:
1. Stop the vehicle in a large open area, safely out of traffic and away from steel structures and high-tension electrical wires.
2. Start the vehicle.
NOTE
• For best calibration results, switch off all electrical equipment in the vehicle (climatesystem, windshield wipers, audio system,etc.) and make sure that all doors areclosed.
• Calibration may not succeed or be incor-rect if the vehicle's electrical equipment isnot switched off.
3. Using a pen, paperclip or similar object, press
and hold the button on the underside of mir- ror for approx. 6 seconds until
C is displayed
in the mirror.
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 dis-
played. See the magnetic zones on the map in the following section "Selecting a mag-netic zone").
6. Wait until
C is again displayed in the mirror.
7. Drive slowly in a circle at a speed of no more than 6 mph (10 km/h) until a direction is dis- played. This indicates that calibration is com-plete.
8. Drive around in a circle an additional two times to fine-tune the calibration.
9. Vehicles with an electrically heated wind- shield: * if
C is displayed when the heating
function is activated, perform step 7 with the heating function on. See also Max. defroster and electrically heated windshield * (p. 133)
for additional information about the heated windshield.
Repeat the calibration procedure if necessary.
20 The auto-dim function is also available as an option on the door mirrors.
