At low ambient temperatures, the exterior
rear view mirrors will be heated automati-
cally.
The reflection brightness of the exterior rear
view mirror on the driver’s side and the inte-
rior rear view mirror will respond automati-
cally to glare when the ignition is switched on
and incoming light from headlamps falls on
the sensor in the interior rear view mirror.
The rear view mirrors will not react if the auto-
matic transmission is set to reverse gear
R or
the interior lighting is switched on.
The auto dimming function does not react
if incoming light is not aimed directly at
sensors in the interior rear view mirror.
The interior rear view mirror and the exte-
rior rear view mirror on the driver’s side do
not react, for example, if the wind screen is
installed.
Light hitting the mirror(s) at certain angles
(incident light) could blind you. As a result,
you may not be able to observe traffic con-
ditions and could cause an accident.
