Automatic anti-dazzle rear-view mirror
The rear-view mirror automatically goes into
anti-dazzle mode if the ignition is switched on
and incident light from headlamps strikes the
sensor in the rear-view mirror.
The rear-view mirror does not go into anti-
dazzle mode if reverse gear is engaged or if
the interior lighting is switched on.
G
Risk of accident
If incident light from headlamps is prevented
from striking the sensor in the rear-view mir-
ror, for instance, by luggage piled too high in
the vehicle, the mirror's automatic anti-dazzle
function will not operate.
Incident light could then dazzle you. This may
distract you from the traffic conditions, and
as a result, you may cause an accident. In this
case, adjust the rear-view mirror manually.

G
Risk of accident
The exterior mirrors reduce the size of the
image. Objects are actually closer than they
appear. You could misjudge the distance from
vehicles driving behind and cause an acci-
dent, e.g. when changing lane. For this rea-
son, make sure of the actual distance from the
vehicle driving behind by glancing over your
shoulder.
The convex exterior mirrors provide a larger
field of vision.
The exterior mirrors are automatically heated
if the rear window heating is switched on and
the outside temperature is low.
