Kia Sedona: Description and Operation
Third generation YP (2014-2024) / Kia Sedona YP Service Manual / Body Electrical System / Electro chromic Inside Rear View Mirror / Description and Operation
| Description |
The Electro Chromatic inside rear view Mirror (ECM) is
intended to dim the reflecting light in the rear view mirror. The
forward facing sensor detects the brightness of the surroundings while
the rearward looking sensor detects the intensity of the light from the
rear. The intensity of the light from the rear sensor is used by the
mirror to adjust the level of shading ranging from 7% to 85%. 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.
|
| 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.
