Illuminated vanity mirror

When the sun visor is folded down, there is a vanity mirror located behind a cover. The lights ﬁg. 110 turn on when the cove

ﬁg. 110 slides open.

WARNING

Visibility may be reduced when sun visors are folded down and the sunshades are extended. This can cause accidents

and serious or fatal injuries.

Under certain conditions, the light above the sun visor will turn off automatically after several minutes. This reduces the

risk of the 12 V vehicle battery being drained.

Facility.

Windshield with communication window

Fig. 112 Next to the mirror base: Communication window (general example).

Windshields made of heat protection glass may have an infrared-reﬂecting coating and may, depending on the vehicle

equipment, be able to be wirelessly heated. In order to ensure that wireless equipment from the accessories industry, e.g. toll

systems, can function correctly, an uncoated area is present on either side of the interior rearview mirror (communication

window) ﬁg. 112.

The uncoated areas must not be covered from the inside or outside, or have stickers on them, because this could cause

malfunctions.
