Operating the power windows.

Operating manually. Move one of the con-
trols slightly up or down. The power win-
dows go up or down while the control is
held in position.

ated at a time.

It can also be operated using keyless opening

*

with the door handle.

WARNING

Make sure that no child or other passenger

comes into contact with the windows as

they are closing with keyless closing

*

.

NOTE

One way to reduce the pulsating wind
noise heard when the rear windows are
open is to also open the front windows
slightly.

NOTE

The windows cannot be opened at speeds
over approx. 180 km/h (ca 112 mph), but
they can be closed.

The driver is always responsible for follow-
ing applicable traffic regulations.

, auto-dim

*

and compass

*

.

The rearview mirror can be adjusted manually.

Adjusting the rearview mirror

dimming function

Bright light entering the vehicle from behind,
e.g. from the headlights of following vehicles,
could reflect in the rearview mirror and door
mirrors and cause a glare. Use the dimming
function when light from behind is distract-
ing.

Auto-dim

If bright light enters the vehicle from behind,
the door mirrors will automatically dim when it
is dark outside or when lighting conditions are
low, for example when driving in tunnels.
Auto-dim is always active when the engine is
running, except when reverse gear is engaged.

NOTE

Adjustments to the sensitivity level will not
be noticeable immediately but will instead
take effect after a short period of time.

The sensitivity level for dimming will affect
both the rearview mirror and door mirrors.

To change the dimming sensitivity level:

1. Tap

Settings

in the Top view in the center

display.

2. Tap

* Option/accessory.

The rearview mirror has two sensors - one
pointing forward and one pointing rearward -
which work together to identify and eliminate
glare. The forward-pointing sensor monitors
ambient light, while the rearward-pointing
sensor monitors light from the headlights of
following vehicles.

For the door mirrors to be equipped with auto-
dim, the rearview mirror must also be equip-
ped with auto-dim.

NOTE

If the sensors are obstructed by e.g. a
parking permit, transponder, sunshade or
objects on the seats or in the cargo com-
partment in a way that prevents light from
reaching the sensors, the auto-dim func-
tion in the door and rearview mirrors will
be reduced.
