Mirrors
Door mirrors
On versions fitted with ‘electrochrome’ mirrors,
a system connected to a brightness sensor
darkens the mirror to reduce the nuisance to the
driver caused by low sun or headlamp beams
from other vehicles.
As a safety measure, the mirrors should be adjusted to reduce the "blind spots".
The objects that you see in the mirrors are
in fact closer than they appear. Take this
into account in order to correctly judge the
distance of vehicles approaching from behind.
Demisting/Defrosting
If the vehicle is so equipped, demisting/
defrosting of the heated door mirrors is
performed when the heated rear screen is
switched on.
