Automatic-Dimming Night Vision
Safety™ (NVS
® ) Mirror
The NVS ® Mirror in your vehicle is the most
advanced way to reduce annoying glare in
the rearview mirror during any driving
situation. For more information regarding
NVS
® mirrors and other applications,
please refer to the Gentex website:
www.gentex.com.
CAUTION:
The NVS ® Mirror automatically reduces
glare during driving conditions based
upon light levels monitored in front of the
vehicle and from the rear of the vehicle.
These light sensors are visible through
openings in the front and rear of the
mirror case. Any object that would
obstruct either light sensor will degrade
the automatic dimming control feature.

Automatic-Dimming Function
Your mirror will automatically dim upon
detecting glare from the vehicles traveling
behind you. The auto-dimming function
can be controlled by the Dimming ON/OFF
Button:
1. Pressing the button turns the auto-
dimming function OFF which is
indicated by the green Status Indicator
LED turning off.
2. Pressing the button again turns the
auto-dimming function ON which is
indicated by the green Status Indicator
LED turning on.
NOTE:
The mirror defaults to the "ON" position
each time the vehicle is started.
Compass Function
The Compass can be turned ON and OFF
and will remember the last state when the
ignition is cycled. To turn the display
feature ON/OFF:
1. Press and release the
button to turn
the display feature OFF.
2. Press and release the button again
to turn the display back ON.
Additional options can be set with press
and hold sequences of the
button and

There is a difference between magnetic
north and true north. The compass in the
mirror can compensate for this difference
when it knows the Magnetic Zone in which
it is operating. This is set either by the dealer
or by the user. The operating Zone Numbers
for North America are shown in the figure on
the following section.
Z-Nav™ Compass Display
The NVS™ Mirror in your vehicle is also
equipped with a Z-Nav™ Compass that
shows the vehicle Compass heading in
the Display Window using the 8 basic
cardinal headings (N, NE, E, SE, etc.).
