The automatic non-glare mirror

[FV22630( GV)01/95]
The electronic day/night mirror will change
from the normal state to the non-glare state
when bright lights (glare) reach the mirror. This
mirror functions at night, and has a limited
function at dusk or dawn. From the non-glare
state, the mirror will return to the normal state
after a short delay. The delay starts when the
glare goes away. The delay prevents excessive
changing of the mirror as traffic moves behind
and around the vehicle, or on rolling hills and
curves.
