 Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Interior mirror dimming
79
Exterior mirrors
80WARNING■ Convex (curved outward) or aspheric exterior mirrors increase the field of
vision. They do, however, make objects appear smaller in the mirror. These
mirrors are therefore only of limited use for estimating distances to the fol-
lowing vehicles.■
Whenever possible use the interior mirror for estimating the distances to
the following vehicles.
WARNINGThe mirrors with automatic dimming contain an electrolyte liquid which can
escape if mirror glass is broken.■
The leaking electrolytic fluid can irritate the skin, eyes and breath appara-
tus.
■
If your eyes or skin come into contact with the electrolytic fluid, immedi-
ately wash the affected area for a few minutes long with a lot of water. If
necessary get medical assistance.

Basic position of the mirror
Mirror blackout
Mirror with automatic dimming
After starting the engine, the mirror darkens » Fig. 70 -
 automatically.
The mirror dimming is controlled by the light incident on the sensors on the
front and back of the mirror.
When the interior lights are switched on or the reverse gear is engaged, the
mirror moves back into the basic position (not dimmed).
Do not attach external devices (e.g. navigation systems) on to the windscreen or in the vicinity of the interior mirror »
.
WARNING■
The illuminated display of an external navigation device can lead to op-
erational faults to the automatic dimming interior mirror – risk of accident.■
The automatic dimming mirror only functions smoothly if the light falling
on the sensors is not impaired, e.g. by the rear sun roller blind.
