Windows, glass and mirrors -> Adjusting the rearview mirror dimming function for Your Volvo XC60 SUV 2020

WINDOWS, GLASS AND MIRRORS  
The rearview mirror instead has two sensors -  
one pointing forward and one pointing rear-  
ward - which work together to identify and  
eliminate glare. The forward-pointing sensor  
monitors ambient light, while the rearward-  
pointing sensor monitors light from the head-  
lights of following vehicles.

Adjusting the door mirrors  
To improve visibility to the rear, the door mir-  
rors need to be adjusted to the driver's height  
and seating position. There are several auto-  
matic settings that can also be connected to  
the memory function buttons for the power  
seat*.  
Bright light entering the vehicle from behind,  
e.g. from the headlights of following vehicles,  
could reflect in the rearview mirror and door  
mirrors and cause a glare. Use the dimming  
function when light from behind is distract-  
ing.  
For the door mirrors to be equipped with auto-  
dim, the rearview mirror must also be equip-  
ped with auto-dim.  
Controls used for door mirrors  
Auto-dim  
If bright light enters the vehicle from behind,  
the door mirrors will automatically dim. Auto-  
dim is always active when the engine is run-  
ning, except when reverse gear is engaged.  
If the sensors are obstructed by e.g. a  
parking permit, transponder, sunshade or  
objects on the seats or in the cargo com-  
partment in a way that prevents light from  
reaching the sensors, the auto-dim func-  
tion in the door and rearview mirrors will  
be reduced.  
Adjustments to the sensitivity level will not  
be noticeable immediately but will instead  
take effect after a short period of time.  
The sensitivity level for dimming will affect  
both the rearview mirror and door mirrors.
