Information
The NVS
®
Mirror
automatically
reduces glare while driving based
upon light levels detected in front of
the vehicle and from the rear of the
vehicle. These light sensors 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 con-
trol function.
Automatic-dimming function
Your mirror automatically dims the
glare upon detecting it from the vehi-
cles traveling behind you. The auto-
matic-dimming function can be con-
trolled by the Dimming ON/OFF
Button:
1. Pressing and holding the button
for 3 seconds
turns OFF the
automatic-dimming function,
which is indicated by the turned-
OFF green light of the Status
Indicator LED.
2. Re-pressing and holding the
button for 3 seconds turns ON the
automatic-dimming function which
is indicated by the turned-ON
green light of the Status Indicator
LED.
The mirror defaults to the ON posi-
tion whenever the vehicle is started.
Z-Nav™ Compass Display
The NVS™ Mirror in your vehicle is
also equipped with a Z-Nav™
Compass that shows the vehicle
Compass heading on the Display
Window in the 8 cardinals headings
(N, NE, E, SE, etc.).
Compass function
The Compass can be turned
ON/OFF and remember the last
heading information when the igni-
tion is cycled. To turn ON/OFF the
display function:
1. Press and release the
button
within 1 second to turn OFF the
display function.
2. Press and release the
button
again within 1 second to turn ON
the display back.
Additional options can be set by
pressing and holding
buttons in
sequences.
There is a difference between the
magnetic north and the actual north.
The compass in the mirror can offset
this difference by knowing 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 next page.
