Automatic dimming for the outside
mirrors
Applies to vehicles: with automat ically adjusting outs ide
mirrors
The outside m irrors dim at the same t ime as
the inside mirror. When the ignition is switch-
ed on, the mirrors automatically dim depend-
ing on the amount of light striking the mirrors
(such as head lights shin ing into the vehicle
from the rear) .
When the interior lighting is switched on and
when reverse gear is engaged, the mirrors are
switched back to their or iginal brightness (not
dimmed).
A WARNING
Broken glass of automatic dimming m irror
can cause elect rolyte fluid leakage. Elec-
trolyte fluid can irritate skin, eyes, and res-
piratory system.
- Repeated or prolonged exposure to elec-
tr o lyte can cause irritation to the resp ira-
t o ry system, espe cially amo ng people
with asthma or other respiratory cond i-
tions. Get fresh air immediately by leav-
ing the vehicle or, if that is not possible,
open windows and doors a ll the way.
