Automatic dimming*
If bright light comes from behind, the rearview
mirrors automatically dim when it is dark out-
side or when the light is limited, for example
when driving in tunnels. Automatic dimming is
always active while driving, apart from when
gearbox reverse position is selected.
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.
To change dimming sensitivity:
1. Press Settings in the top view in the cen-
tre display.
2. Press My Car Mirrors and
Convenience.
3. Under Rearview Mirror Auto Dimming
select Normal , Dark or Light
The interior rearview mirror contains two sen-
sors - one forward facing and one rearward
facing - that work together to identify and
eliminate dazzling light. The forward facing
sensor detects ambient light, while the rear-
ward facing sensor detects the light from vehi-
cle headlights behind.
For the door mirrors to be equipped with auto-
matic dimming, the interior rearview mirror
must also be equipped with automatic dim-
ming.
NOTE
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.
