Electric Chromic Mirror (ECM) (if equipped)

cally controls the glare from the head-
lamp of the car behind you in night-
time or low light driving conditions.
When the vehicle is ON, the glare is
automatically controlled by the sen-
sor mounted in the rearview mirror.
The sensor detects the light level
around the vehicle, and automatical-
ly adjusts to control the headlamp
glare from vehicles behind you.
Whenever the gear is shifted to R
(Reverse), the mirror will automati-
cally go to the brightest setting in
order to improve the drivers view
behind the vehicle.
NOTICE
NEVER adjust the mirror whilst
driving. This may cause loss of
vehicle control resulting in an
