Mirror with automatic dimming
If the automatic dimming is enabled, the mirror dims automatically depending
on the light falling on the sensors.
When the interior lights are switched on or the reverse gear is engaged, the
mirror always 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.
