Automatic dimming interior mirror

',--------"'11

'/-~------;j_/

The automatic interior mirror darkens when the driver is"blinded" from behind. It consists of a mirror element andtwo photo sensors. The electronic circuitry recognizeslight incidence for the front and rear through the photosensors. If the light incidence is greater from the rear thanfrom the front the circuitry applies voltage to the conduc­tive coating. An increase in voltage darkens the electro­lyte and less of the light incidence is reflected to thedriver's eye.

~ The automatic dimming function can be checked byswitching on the ignition, covering the front photo sensor(3) and shining a flashlight at the rear photo sensor (item2). The mirror should darken if reverse gear is not en­gaged.

NOTE-When selecting reverse gear the dimming function ofthe mirror is switched off enabling the mirror to be ef­fectively used to back up the vehicle (i.e. from a darkgarage).
