Mirrors
Auto-dimming rear view mirrors*
The reflection brightness of the exterior 
rear view mirror on the driver’s side and 
the interior rear view mirror will respond 
automatically to glare when
the ignition is switched on
and
incoming light from headlamps falls on 
the sensor in the interior rear view 
mirror
The interior rear view mirror will not react if
reverse gear R is engaged
the interior lighting is turned on
Warning!
G
The auto-dimming function does not react if 
incoming light is not aimed directly at the 
sensors in the interior rear view mirror.
The interior rear view mirror and the exterior 
rear view mirror on the driver’s side do not 
react, for example, if the rear window 
sunshade* is in raised position.
Light hitting the mirror(s) at certain angles 
(incident light) could blind you. As a result, 
you may not be able to observe traffic con-
ditions and could cause an accident.
Warning!
G
Exercise care when using the passen-
ger-side exterior rear view mirror. The mirror 
surface is convex (outwardly curved surface 
for a wider field of view). Objects in mirror 
are closer than they appear. Check your 
interior rear view mirror or glance over your 
shoulder before changing lanes.
