The ECM (Electro
Chromatic inside rear view Mirror) is for dimming the reflecting light
from a vehicle behind at night, in order the user not to be dazzled by the
light. The forward facing sensor detects brightness of the surroundings,
while the rearward looking sensor the strength of the reflecting light so
that adjusts the reflexibility of the mirror in the range of 7~85%. But,
when the reverse gear is engaged, it stops functioning.
1. |
The forward facing sensor sees if the
brightness of the surroundings is low enough for the mirror to
operate its function. |
2. |
The rearward looking sensor detects glaring of
the reflecting light from a vehicle
behind. |
3. |
The ECM is darkened to the level as determined
by the rearward looking sensor. When the glaring is no longer
detected, the mirror stops functioning.

Reverse Display Room Mirror
The back view camera
system, located on the tailgate, provides a video image (which appears in
the rear view mirror) of the area behind the vehicle. It adds assistance
to the driver while reversing or reverse parking the vehicle.
To use the back view
camera system, place the transmission in R (Reverse); an image will
display on the left portion of the rear view mirror. The area displayed on
the screen may vary according to the vehicle orientation and/or road
condition.

Rearward looking
sensor |

Use the side mirrors and
back view mirror to get better coverage on both sides and rear of the
vehicle. When shifting out of reverse and into any other gear, the image
will remain on for a few seconds before it shuts off to assist in parking
or trailer hookup.
The camera lens for the
back view camera system is located on the tailgate, near the tailgate
handle. Keep the lens clean so the video image remains clear and
undistorted. Clean the lens with a soft, lint-free cloth and non-abrasive
cleaner.
If the back view camera system image is not
clear or seems distorted, it may be covered with water droplets,
snow, mud or any other substance. If this occurs, clean the camera
lens before using the reverse camera
system. |
The back view camera system is a reverse aid
supplement device that still requires the driver to use it in
conjunction with the back view mirror and the side mirrors for
maximum coverage. |
Objects that are close to either corner of the
bumper or under the bumper, might not be seen on the screen due to
the limited coverage of the back view camera
system. |
Backup as slow as possible since higher speeds
might limit your reaction time to stop the vehicle.
|
Do not use the back view camera system with
the tailgate open. |
If the back end of the
vehicle is hit or damaged, then check with your authorized dealer to have
your rear video system checked for proper coverage and
operation.
Nighttime and dark
area use |
At night time or in dark
areas, the back view camera system relies on the reverse lamp lighting to
produce an image. Therefore it is necessary that both reverse lamps are
operating in order to get a clear image in the dark. If either of the
lamps are not operating, stop using the back view camera system, at least
in the dark, until the lamp(s) are replaced and functioning.
Automatic-dimming
Function |
To protect your vision
during nighttime driving, your mirror will automatically dim upon
detecting glare from the vehicles traveling behind you. The auto-dimming
function can be controlled by the Dimming ON/OFF Button :
1. |
Pressing and holding the Feature Control
button for more than 3 but less than 6 seconds turns the
auto-dimming function OFF which is indicated by the green Status
Indicator LED turning off. |
2. |
Pressing and holding the Feature Control
button again for more than 3 but less than 6 seconds turns the
auto-dimming function ON which is indicated by the green Status
Indicator LED turning on.
The mirror defaults to the "ON" position
each time the vehicle is
started. | |
