The automatic non-glare mirror
*
[CF39300( GV)01/96]
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.

To turn the mirror on, push the ON/OFF
switch, located on the bottom of the mirror, to

illumination and automatic dimming feature off,

[CF39500( GV)01/96]
The electronic mirror measures the brightness of
the light coming in from the rear of the vehicle.
It automatically makes a correction in the glare
state. The mirror may be turned off in either the
normal or non-glare position.
[CF39600( GV)12/95]
There are two light sensors (photocells) in this
mirror. The sensor that detects rear glare is
located inside a window in the center of the
mirror. The second light sensor which
determines outside light level is located on the
backside of the mirror case.
*
[CF39605( GV)05/96]
NOTE: Do not block the sensor on the
backside of the mirror (i.e., with a
parking tag, car deodorizer, etc.) since
this may impair proper mirror
performance.
*
[CF39700( GV)05/96]
One important safety feature is that the mirror
automatically returns to the normal position
whenever the vehicle is placed in R (Reverse)
(when the mirror is in the ON position). This
feature ensures a bright clear view in the mirror
when backing up.
