ward facing sensor detects the light from vehi-  
cle headlights behind.  
Adjusting rearview mirror dimming  
Automatic dimming*  
If bright light comes from behind, the rearview  
mirrors automatically dim when it is dark out-  
side or when the light is limited, for example  
when driving in tunnels. Automatic dimming is  
always active while driving, apart from when  
gearbox reverse position is selected.  
Bright light from behind could be reflected in  
the rearview mirrors and dazzle the driver.  
Use dimming when disturbed by light from  
behind.  
For the door mirrors to be equipped with auto-  
matic dimming, the interior rearview mirror  
must also be equipped with automatic dim-  
ming.  
Manual dimming  
The interior rearview mirror can be dimmed  
with a control in the mirror's lower edge.  
NOTE  
NOTE  
If the sensors are obscured by e.g. parking  
permits, transponders, sun visors or  
objects in the seats or in the cargo area in  
such a way that light is prevented from  
reaching the sensors, then the dimming  
function of the interior rearview and door  
mirrors is reduced.  
When sensitivity is changed there is no  
immediately noticeable change in dim-  
ming, but the change takes place gradu-  
ally.  
Dimming sensitivity will affect both the interior  
rearview mirror and the door mirrors.
