Adjusting the rearview mirror
dimming function
Bright light entering the vehicle from behind,
e.g. from the headlights of following vehicles,
could reflect in the rearview mirror and door
mirrors and cause a glare. Use the dimming
function when light from behind is distract-
ing.
Auto-dim
If bright light enters the vehicle from behind,
the door mirrors will automatically dim. Auto-
dim is always active when the engine is run-
ning, except when reverse gear is engaged.
NOTE
Adjustments to the sensitivity level will not
be noticeable immediately but will instead
take effect after a short period of time.
The sensitivity level for dimming will affect
both the rearview mirror and door mirrors.
To change the dimming sensitivity level:
1. Tap Settings in the Top view in the center
display.
2. Tap My Car Mirrors and Convenience .
3. Under Rearview Mirror Auto Dimming
,
select Normal , Dark or Light .
The rearview mirror instead has two sensors -
one pointing forward and one pointing rear-
ward - which work together to identify and
eliminate glare. The forward-pointing sensor
monitors ambient light, while the rearward-
pointing sensor monitors light from the head-
lights of following vehicles.
For the door mirrors to be equipped with auto-
dim, the rearview mirror must also be equip-
ped with auto-dim.
NOTE
If the sensors are obstructed by e.g. a
parking permit, transponder, sunshade or
objects on the seats or in the cargo com-
partment in a way that prevents light from
reaching the sensors, the auto-dim func-
tion in the door and rearview mirrors will
be reduced.
