Adjusting the rearview mirrordimming function
Bright light entering the vehicle from behind, e.g. from the headlights of following vehicles, couldreflect in the rearview mirror and door mirrorsand cause a glare. Use the dimming functionwhen light from behind is distracting.
Auto-dimIf bright light enters the vehicle from behind, the door mirrors will automatically dim. Auto-dim isalways active when the engine is running, exceptwhen reverse gear is engaged.
NOTE
When the level of sensitivity is changed, this change will not be noticeable immediately butwill instead take effect after a short period oftime.
The sensitivity level for dimming will affect both the rearview mirror and door mirrors. 1. Tap
Settings in the Top view in the center
display.
2. Tap
My CarMirrors and Convenience.
3. Under
Rearview Mirror Auto Dimming,
select Normal, Dark or Light.
The rearview mirror instead has two sensors - one pointing forward and one pointing rearward -which work together to identify and eliminate glare. The forward-pointing sensor monitorsambient light, while the rearward-pointing sensormonitors light from the headlights of followingvehicles. For the door mirrors to be equipped with auto- dim, the rearview mirror must also be equippedwith auto-dim.
NOTE
If the sensors are obstructed by e.g. a parking permit, transponder, sunshade or objects onthe seats or in the cargo compartment in away that prevents light from reaching the sen-sors, the auto-dim function in the door andrearview mirrors will be reduced.
