Interior Auto-Dimming Rear View Mirror

The interior auto-dimming rear view mirror automatically reduces the glare caused by headlamps reflecting in the interior rear view mirror. The interior auto-dimming rear view mirror adjusts the reflectance level of the interior rear view mirror glass to eliminate unwanted glare. The reflectance level of the mirror glass is variable and depends on the amount of rear glare in relation to ambient light conditions in front of the interior mirror. To provide increased visibility when backing up, the interior rear view mirror will automatically return to a high reflectance mode whenever the vehicle is in REVERSE.

On vehicles equipped with navigation or SYNC, the interior rear view mirror contains an integrated microphone. For microphone information or diagnostics, refer to Radio, Stereo, and Compact Disc.

On vehicles equipped with a compass, the interior rear view mirror will contain an integrated compass module. For compass information, calibration or diagnostics, refer to Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators.
