Function

• The auto-dimming rearview mirror changes the reflection rate of the auto-dimming rearview mirror and the auto-dimming outer mirrors between 7% and 80% according to the level of the surrounding light and the glare level from vehicles at the rear.

Note

• The reflection rate of the auto-dimming rearview mirror is fixed at 50% or more when the selector lever (ATX)/shift lever (MTX) is shifted to the R position.

Glare level detection function

• The auto-dimming rearview mirror detects the level of the surrounding light and glare from vehicles at the rear using the light sensor.

Operation

1. When the auto-dimming rearview mirror switch is turned on, the auto-dimming rearview mirror initiates the detection of the glare level.

2. The auto-dimming rearview mirror detects (1) the level of the surrounding light and glare level from vehicles at the rear using the light sensor.

3. The auto-dimming rearview mirror changes (2) the voltage input to the auto-dimming rearview mirror according to the level of the surrounding light and the glare level from vehicles at the rear.

4. The auto-dimming rearview mirror and the auto-dimming outer mirrors change the reflection rate between 7% and 80% according to the input voltage.

5. When the auto-dimming rearview mirror receives an R position signal from the rear body control module (RBCM), the reflection rate of the auto-dimming rearview mirror and the auto-dimming outer mirrors are fixed (3) at 50% or more.
