same direction.

If there is any problem with the pinch protection,
a rest procedure can be tested.

dimming function

Bright light entering the vehicle from behind, e.g.
from the headlights of following vehicles, could
reflect in the rearview mirror and door mirrors
and cause a glare. Use the dimming function
when light from behind is distracting.

Auto-dim

If bright light enters the vehicle from behind, the
door mirrors will automatically dim. Auto-dim is
always active when the engine is running, except
when reverse gear is engaged.

NOTE

Adjustments to the sensitivity level will not be
noticeable immediately but will instead take
effect after a short period of time.

The sensitivity level for dimming will affect both
the rearview mirror and door mirrors.

To change the dimming sensitivity level:

1. Tap 

Settings

 in the Top view in the center

display.

2. Tap 

My Car

.

3. Under

,

select

The rearview mirror instead has two sensors -
one pointing forward and one pointing rearward -

which work together to identify and eliminate
glare. The forward-pointing sensor monitors
ambient light, while the rearward-pointing sensor
monitors light from the headlights of following
vehicles.

For the door mirrors to be equipped with auto-
dim, the rearview mirror must also be equipped
with auto-dim.

NOTE

If the sensors are obstructed by e.g. a parking
permit, transponder, sunshade or objects on
the seats or in the cargo compartment in a
way that prevents light from reaching the sen-
sors, the auto-dim function in the door and
rearview mirrors will be reduced.
