Automatic-Dimming Night Vision Safety™ (NVS
®
) Mirror
The NVS
®
Mirror in your vehicle is the most advanced way to eliminate dangerous and
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.
Precautions
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
To protect your vision during nighttime driving, 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.
