Do not attach external navigation devices on to the windscreen or in the vicini-
ty of the automatic dimming interior mirror
WARNING
The illuminated display of an external navigation unit can lead to opera-
tional faults to the automatic dimming interior mirror – risk of accident.

The mirrors with automatic dimming contain an electrolyte liquid which can
escape if mirror glass is broken.
The leaking electrolytic fluid can irritate the skin, eyes and breath appara-
■
tus. Immediately seek out fresh air and leave the vehicle. If this is not pos-
sible, at least open the window.
If you swallow electrolytic fluid, seek medical assistance immediately.
■
If your eyes or skin come into contact with the electrolytic fluid, immedi-
■
ately wash the affected area for a few minutes long with a lot of water.
Then consult a doctor immediately.
CAUTION
Automatic mirror dimming operates only properly if the light striking the sen-
sors is not affected by other objects.
