AUTO-DIMMING REARVIEW MIRROR/AUTO-DIMMING OUTER MIRROR [(US)]

SM2334197


id0912000156x1



Purpose

• The auto-dimming rearview mirror and the auto-dimming outer mirrors prevent the driver from being blinded by light from vehicles at the rear.



Function

• The auto-dimming rearview mirror changes the reflection rate of the auto-dimming rearview mirror between 4% and 55% according to the level of the surrounding light and the glare level from vehicles at the rear.
• The auto-dimming outer mirrors are linked with the auto-dimming rearview mirror operation and the reflection rate of the outer mirrors is changed to 15%.
Note
• The reflection rate of the auto-dimming rearview mirror is fixed at 50% or more when the selector lever (ATX)/shift lever knob (MTX) is shifted to the R position (ATX/MTX).


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.


Home link function

• A gate of a house or garage, or gate lamp can be operated remotely by operating the home link button built into the auto-dimming rearview mirror.

Note
• When two or more home link buttons are pressed simultaneously, the home link button with the smallest number is operated first.
• The frequency (remote controller information) for operating each gate of the house or gate lamp can be stored to the three home link buttons built into the auto-dimming rearview mirror.
• The stored information is not cleared even if the battery power is disconnected.
• All the stored information can be cleared by pressing and holding home link buttons 1 and 3 simultaneously for 10 s or more.

Note
• If the learned information is cleared, the auto-dimming rearview mirror flashes the home link button indicator for approx. 10 s.

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 and the auto-dimming outer mirrors according to the level of the surrounding light and the glare level from vehicles at the rear.

4.The auto-dimming rearview mirror changes the reflection rate between 4% and 55% according to the input voltage.

5.The auto-dimming outer mirrors are linked with the auto-dimming rearview mirror operation and the reflection rate of the outer mirrors is changed to 15% (3).

6.When the auto-dimming rearview mirror receives an R position signal from the indicator unit, the reflection rate of the auto-dimming rearview mirror is fixed (4) at 50% or more.
