1 Interior mirror
1.1 Tools
1.1.1 Required special tools, workshop equip‐
ment, test and measuring devices and
auxiliary items
♦ Removal wedge -3409-
1.2 Automatic anti-dazzle interior mirror
The automatic anti-dazzle interior mirror darkens continuously
when the driver is blinded from behind.
It consists of a mirror element and electrics with two photo sen‐
sors.
The photo sensors of the electronics detect the light incidence
from the front and the rear.
If the light incidence is greater from the rear than from the front,
the electronics apply voltage to the conductive coating.
The applied voltage changes the colour of the electrolyte. The
greater the voltage, the darker the electrolyte. Therefore, the in‐
cident light is reflected to a lesser degree.
Selecting reverse gear switches off the anti-dazzle function. Con‐
sequently, one can, for example, reverse out of a dark garage with
the aid of the interior mirror.
