03 Instruments and controls

Interior rearview mirror

The interior rearview mirror has an auto-dim
function that helps reduce glare from follow-
ing vehicle's headlights.
Auto-dim function
The interior rearview mirror's auto-dim func-
tion is controlled by two sensors: one point-
ing forward (located on the forward-facing
03
side of the mirror, which monitors the amount
of ambient light) and one pointing rearward
(located on the side of the mirror facing the
driver at the upper edge, which senses the
strength of following vehicles' headlights),
and work together to help eliminate glare.

Digital compass*

The rear-view mirror has an integrated display
that shows the compass direction in which
the vehicle is traveling.
Operation
Eight different directions are shown with the
abbreviations: N (north), NE (north east),
SE S
(east), (southeast), (south),
W NW
west), (west) and (northwest).
Calibration
North America is divided into 15 magnetic
zones and the compass will need to be cali-
brated if the vehicle is driven into a new one
(see the magnetic zones on the map in the
following section "Selecting a magnetic
zone"). To do so:
1. Stop the vehicle in a large open area,
safely out of traffic and away from steel
structures and high-tension electrical
wires.
2. Start the vehicle.
NOTE
•
For best calibration results, switch off
all electrical equipment in the vehicle
(climate system, windshield wipers,
audio system, etc.) and make sure that

7. Drive slowly in a circle at a speed of no
more than 6 mph (10 km/h) until a direc-
tion is displayed. This indicates that cali-
bration is complete.
8. Drive around in a circle an additional two
times to fine-tune the calibration.
