Rearview Camera Full Display Mirror Description and Operation
If equipped, full display mirror provides a wider field of view than normally seen from the inside rearview mirror to assist when driving and changing lanes. When the tab under the inside rearview mirror is pulled rearward, a view of the area behind the vehicle displays on the mirror. The inside rearview camera full display mirror is connected to the outside rearview camera via a shielded coaxial cable.
When the tab under the inside rearview mirror is pulled rearward, a view of the area behind the vehicle displays on the mirror.
Adjust the rearview mirror for a clear view of the area behind the vehicle before turning on full display mirror. Use the three buttons on the bottom of the mirror to adjust the brightness, zoom, and tilt of the display. Make sure the light sensor is not covered when adjusting the brightness.
The inside rearview camera full display mirror may not work properly or display a clear image if:
- It is dark.
- The sun or the beam of headlamps are shining directly into the camera lens.
- Ice, snow, mud, or anything else builds up on the camera lens. Clean the lens, rinse it with water, and wipe it with a soft cloth.
When the mirror detects that the camera is not sending a valid video signal, it "blue screens" with a "no video" decal for 3 seconds, then reverts back to the mirror.
