WINDOWS, GLASS AND MIRRORS

For the door mirrors to be equipped with auto-

matic dimming, the interior rearview mirror

must also be equipped with automatic dim-

ming.

Adjusting rearview mirror dimming

Automatic dimming*

Bright light from behind is automatically

dimmed by the interior rearview and door mir-

rors. Automatic dimming is always active

while driving, apart from when gearbox

reverse position is selected.

Bright light from behind could be reflected in

the rearview mirrors and dazzle the driver.

Use dimming when disturbed by light from

behind.

NOTE

Manual dimming

The interior rearview mirror can be dimmed

with a control in the mirror's lower edge.

If the sensors are obscured by e.g. parking

permits, transponders, sun visors or

objects in the seats or in the cargo area in

such a way that light is prevented from

reaching the sensors, then the dimming

function of the interior rearview and door

mirrors is reduced.

NOTE

When sensitivity is changed there is no

immediately noticeable change in dim-

ming, but the change takes place gradu-

ally.

Dimming sensitivity will affect both the interior

rearview mirror and the door mirrors.
