This mirror is equipped with an electrochromic
glare control feature that automatically darkens

of vehicles behind you. A forward facing light
sensor measures the ambient light just as your
eyes do. When the rear facing light sensor in the
glass senses glare, such as from following

the glare subsides, the mirror glass returns to its
normal clear state.
