Automatic anti-dazzle mirrors*
The rear-view mirror and the exterior mirror
on the driver's side automatically go into anti-
dazzle mode if the ignition is switched on and
incident light from headlamps strikes the sen-
sor in the rear-view mirror.
The mirrors do not go into anti-dazzle mode if
reverse gear is engaged or the interior lighting
is switched on.
G Risk of accident
If incident light from headlamps cannot
strike the sensor in the rear-view mirror, for
instance if the safety net is fitted, the mir-
ror's automatic anti-dazzle function will not
work.
Incident light could then dazzle you. This
may distract you from the traffic conditions,
and you may thereby cause an accident. In
this case, adjust the rear-view mirror man-
ually.
