Adjusting rearview mirror dimming

Bright light from behind is automatically dimmed by the interior rearview and door mirrors when it is dark outside or in limited light conditions, such as when driving in tunnels. Automatic dimming is always active while driving, apart from when gearbox reverse position is selected.

The interior rearview mirror contains two sensors - one forward facing and one rearward facing - that work together to identify and eliminate dazzling light. The forward facing sensor detects ambient light, while the rearward facing sensor detects the light from vehicle headlights behind.

 Note

When sensitivity is changed there is no immediately noticeable change in dimming, but the change takes place gradually.
Tap on PS2-2007-Car symbol in the centre display.
Press More.
Tap on Mirrors and select the preferred setting.

Dimming sensitivity will affect both the interior rearview mirror and the door mirrors.

 Note

If the sensors are obscured by e.g. parking permits, transponders, sun visors or objects in the seats or on the parcel shelf in such a way that light is prevented from reaching the sensors, then the dimming function of the interior rearview and door mirrors is reduced.
