The auto-dimming mirror has an anti-glare feature which automatically reduces
glare coming from headlights of vehicles behind you. It also contains a built-in
compass.
● By pressing and holding the switch for less than 3 seconds, the automatic dimming
function is toggled on or off. When the automatic dimming function is on, the LED
