NOTICE
The NVS
®
Mirror
automatically
reduces glare during driving condi-
tions based upon light levels moni-
tored in front of the vehicle and from
the rear of the vehicle. These light sen-
sors are visible through openings in
the front and rear of the mirror case.
Any object that obstructs either light
sensor will degrade the automatic
dimming control feature.

Your mirror will automatically dim
upon detecting glare from the vehi-
cles traveling behind you. The auto-
dimming function can be controlled
by the Dimming ON/OFF Button:

seconds turns
the
autodimming
function OFF which is indicated by
the green Status Indicator LED
turning off.
2. Pressing and hold the
button for

dimming function ON which is indi-
cated by the green Status
Indicator LED turning on.
The mirror defaults to the ON posi-
tion each time the vehicle is started.

pass in the mirror can compensate
for this difference when it knows the
Magnetic Zone in which it is operat-
ing. This is set either by the dealer or
by the user. The operating Zone
Numbers for North America are
shown in the figure on the following
