Automatic photochromic
interior rear view mirror
This provides an automatic and
progressive changing between
day use and night use.
To avoid causing dazzle, the mirror
automatically becomes darker as
a function of the intensity of light
coming from the rear. It becomes
lighter as soon as brightness
diminishes, thus ensuring optimal
vision.
Manual interior mirror
A lever on the underside of the
mirror allows you to choose
between two positions :
Day position: the lever is not
visible
Night position (anti-dazzle): the
lever is visible Operation
Switch on ignition and press on control
1.
- warning lamp 2 lit (switch on): automatic mode.
- warning lamp 2 not lit : automatic mode not operative. The mirror remains
at its lightest deinition.
Note: for optimal vision, the mirror lightens automatically when reverse
gear is engaged.
Permit holder
The athermic windscreen incorporates a clear area above the rear vie w mirror to allow the reading of access cards,
such as motorway toll pass, parking permit, etc. I N T E R I O R R E A R V I E W M I R R O R

Electrically - controlled door
mirrors
The edge of the driver’s door mirror
(deined by the black dotted line)
is aspherical in shape to widen the
lateral visual ield.
Objects seen in the aspherical part
of the rear view mirror are closer
than they look.
This should be taken into account
when assessing distances. Adjustment of rear view
mirrors
Functions with ignition switched
on.
From the driver’s position,
select the rear view mirror via
the control
1, then adjust in the
four directions by moving the
control 2.
Deicing of rear view mirrors is
coupled with electric demisting of
the rear screen. Folding back the door mirrors
When the vehicle is parked, the
door mirrors can be folded back
either manually or electrically.
Electric fold-back
From the central position, one
press towards the rear on control
1
folds the rear view mirrors back.
To return them to the initial
position, press again towards the
rear on the control.
Automatic fold-back
Automatic folding of the door
mirrors is also operated by the
locking of the doors with the
remote control.
The opposite effect is obtained by
switching on the ignition, except if
folding back was requested before
the ignition was switched off.
Note: Automatic fold-back
of the rear view mirrors can
be deactivated. Consult your
CITROËN dealer.
