The mirror has a photosensor attached on
both the front and back sides. During
nighttime driving, these sensors detect
distracting glare from vehicle headlights
behind you and automatically dim the
mirror to eliminate glare and preserve
your vision. For this reason, use care not
to cover the sensors with stickers, or other
similar items. Periodically wipe the sen-
sors clean using a piece of dry soft cotton
cloth or an applicator.
NOTE
When cleaning the mirror, use a paper
towel or similar item dampened with
glass cleaner. Do not spray glass
cleaner directly on the mirror surface.
By doing so, the sprayed glass cleaner
could enter the inside of the mirror
housing. That may cause a malfunction
in the mirror.

Rear view image display
When the ignition switch is in the
“
ON
”
position and the transmission is in the
“
R
”
(reverse) position, the rear view camera
automatically displays the rear view image
behind the vehicle on the inside mirror.
Also, the following help lines are indicated
as a guide to help you realize the actual
distance from the display.
1) Vehicle width line (oblique vertical line)
2) Approx. 10 feet (3 m) from the bumper
(green horizontal line)
3) Approx. 6.5 feet (2 m) from the bumper
(green horizontal line)
4) Approx. 3 feet (1 m) from the bumper
(yellow horizontal line)
5) Approx. 1.5 feet (0.5 m) from the bumper
(red horizontal line)
By pressing the power button while the
transmission is in the
“
R
”
(reverse) posi-
tion, the rear view image display toggles to
the on or off mode.
Once the rear view image display is set to
the off mode, the display stays in the off
mode, with the function indicator in or-
ange, every time the transmission is
shifted into the
“
R
”
(reverse) position.
