AUTOMATIC DIMMING INSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR (IF EQUIPPED)

Your vehicle is equipped with an
inside rear view mirror which has an
auto-dimming function. The
electrochromic day/night mirror will
change from the normal (high
reflective) state to the non-glare
(darkened) state when bright lights (glare) reach the mirror. When the
mirror detects bright light from front or behind, it will automatically
adjust (darken) to minimize glare.

The mirror will automatically return to the normal state whenever the
vehicle is placed in R (Reverse)(when the mirror is on) to ensure a
bright clear view when backing up.

Do not block the sensor on the backside of the mirror since this may
impair proper mirror performance.

Electronic compass (if equipped)

The compass reading will remain accurate during most driving
conditions. The compass is continuously re-calibrating due to changing
magnetic fields and subtle, slow changes in vehicle magnetics which can
occur over the life of the vehicle. If heading appears inaccurate
re-calibrate mirror, refer to Compass calibration adjustment.

The compass reading will remain fixed when significant levels of
magnetic interference are experienced (such as steel bridges). The
compass will return to normal operation upon leaving the magnetized
area.

If highly magnetized items (such as magnetic mount antennas) are
placed very near the compass the display will change to “C”. If a “C” is
displayed, remove the source of magnetic interference and re-calibrate
compass, refer to Compass calibration adjustment.

Most geographic areas (zones) have a magnetic north compass point that
varies slightly from the northerly direction on maps. A correct zone
setting will eliminate this error. You MUST set the mirror to the proper
zone to get an accurate compass reading, refer to Compass zone
adjustment.
