Rearview mirror

The interior rearview mirror has an auto-dim function that helps reduce glare from following vehicle's headlights.

Auto-dim function

The auto-dim function is controlled by two sensors: one pointing forward (located on the forward-facing side of the mirror, which monitors the amount of ambient light) and one pointing rearward (located on the side of the mirror facing the driver at the upper edge, which senses the strength of following vehicles' headlights), and work together to help eliminate glare.

 Note

Obstructing the sensors with e.g., parking stickers, transponders, etc., or by placing objects on the seats or parcel shelf in such a way that light is prevented from reaching the sensors will reduce the auto-dim function in the interior rearview mirror and optional auto-dim function in the door mirrors.

The auto-dim function is always active while the vehicle is being driven except when the reverse gear has been selected. The level of sensitivity for this function can be set to three levels, which affect the rearview mirror and door mirrors.

 Note

When the level of sensitivity is changed, this change will not be noticeable immediately but will take effect after a short period of time.

The level of sensitivity is set from the center display:

Tap Settings in Top view.
Tap My CarMirrors.
Under Auto Dim Mirrors, select Normal, Dark or Light.
