Electric type (if equipped)

When the engine is running, the glare is
automatically controlled by the sensor
mounted in the rearview mirror. The sen-
sor mounted in the mirror senses the light
level around the vehicle, and through a
chemical reaction, automatically controls
the headlight glare from vehicles behind
you.
Whenever the shift lever is shifted into
reverse (R), the mirror will automatically
go to the brightest setting in order to
improve the drivers view behind the vehi-
cle.
When the ignition switch is ON, the auto-
matic- dimming function will turn on auto-
matically.

NOTICE

When cleaning the mirror, use a paper
towel or similar material dampened
with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass
cleaner directly on the mirror as that
may cause the liquid cleaner to enter the
mirror housing.
