Subaru Outback (BR): Photosensors in the mirror
Subaru Outback (BR) 2010-2015 Owners Manual / Instruments and controls / Mirrors / Auto-dimming mirror with compass (if equipped) / Photosensors in the mirror
The Subaru Outback (BR) features a mirror equipped with photosensors on both its front and rear sides. These sensors are designed to detect bright glare from headlights of vehicles behind you during nighttime driving. As a safety measure, the mirror automatically dims to reduce glare and ensure optimal visibility. It's important to avoid covering the sensors with stickers or other objects. Regularly clean the sensors using a dry, soft cotton cloth or an applicator to maintain their functionality.
