Automatic-Dimming Night Vision
Safety™ (NVS
®) Mirror
The NVS
® Mirror in your vehicle is the most
advanced way to reduce glare in the rear-
view mirror during any driving situation.
For more information regarding NVS
® mir-
rors and other applications, please refer to
the Gentex website:
www.gentex.com.
CAUTION:
Too close the NVS
® Mirror automatically
reduces glare during driving conditions
based upon light levels monitored in front
of the vehicle and from the rear of the
vehicle. These light sensors are visible
through openings in the front and rear of
the mirror case. Any object that would
obstruct either light sensor will degrade
the automatic dimming control feature.
!
Automatic-Dimming Function
Your mirror will automatically dim upon
detecting glare from the vehicles traveling
behind you. The auto-dimming function
can be controlled by the Dimming ON/OFF
Button:
1. Pressing the
button turns the auto-
dimming function OFF which is indi-
cated by the green Status Indicator LED
turning off.
2. Pressing the button again turns the
auto-dimming function ON which is in-
dicated by the green Status Indicator
LED turning on.
NOTE:The mirror defaults to the "ON" position
each time the vehicle is started.Compass Function
The Compass can be turned ON and OFF
and will remember the last state when the
ignition is cycled. To turn the display fea-
ture ON/OFF:

2. Press and release the button again
to turn the display back ON.
Additional options can be set with press

There is a difference between magnetic
north and true north. The compass in the
mirror can compensate for this difference
when it knows the Magnetic Zone in which
it is operating. This is set either by the
dealer or by the user. The operating Zone
Numbers for North America are shown in
the figure on the following section.
Z-Nav™ Compass DisplayThe NVS™ Mirror in your vehicle is also
equipped with a Z-Nav™ Compass that
shows the vehicle Compass heading in
the Display Window using the 8 basic
cardinal headings (N, NE, E, SE, etc.).
