Mirrors
Passenger-side exterior mirror tilt
function
(automatic curb monitor)
> Move the mirror selector switch 1 to
the "driver's mirror" position
> When the selector lever is placed in
"Reverse," the passenger-side mirror
tilts downward. This brings e. g. the
lower area adjacent to the vehicle
(curbs, etc.) into the driver's field of
vision while parking.
You can deactivate this automatic
feature by setting the mirror selector
switch to the "passenger side" position.
Interior rearview mirror with
automatic dimming feature
This mirror automatically dims through
an infinitely variable range and switches
automatically to its clear, undimmed
mode whenever you engage reverse
gear.
There are two photocells for automatic
dimming. One photocell (arrow) is posi-
tioned in the mirror's frame, while the
other is slightly offset on the opposite
side of the mirror.
For the mirror to function perfectly,
keep the photocells clean and the area
between the inside rearview mirror and
the windshield free of any obstruction,
like stickers, etc.
