Rearview mirror The interior rearview mirror has an auto-dim function that helps reduce glare from followingvehicle's headlights.
Auto-dim functionThe auto-dim function is controlled by two sen- sors: one pointing forward (located on the for-ward-facing side of the mirror, which monitors theamount of ambient light) and one pointing rear-ward (located on the side of the mirror facing thedriver at the upper edge, which senses thestrength of following vehicles' headlights), andwork together to help eliminate glare.
NOTE
Obstructing the forward sensor with e.g., parking stickers, transponders, etc., or the rearsensor by loading the cargo area or the rearseat in such a way that light is prevented fromreaching the sensor will reduce the auto-dimfunction in the interior rearview mirror andoptional auto-dim function in the door mirrors.
The auto-dim function is always active while the vehicle is being driven except when the reversegear has been selected. The level of sensitivityfor this function can be set to three levels, whichaffect the rearview mirror and door mirrors.
