Using t Using the digit he digital r al rear earvie view mirr w mirror or
The vehicle may be equipped with a digital inside
rearview mirror. This uses a camera in the rear
window and a display integrated into the mirror to
provide a better view to the rear. The rearview mir-
ror can be used either as a standard rearview mir-
ror or as a display.
To prevent glare from the digital rearview mirror,
rst set the digital rearview mirror as the standard
rearview mirror.
Certain types of sunlight, e.g. sun low on the hori-
zon or light from another intense light source, can
reduce the display's contrast and cause it to
become too bright. In such situations, objects on
the display may be obscured or di cult to see. In
these cases, be particularly careful and adapt your
driving style accordingly.
