2000 Buick Regal Owner's Manual - Page 115

One photocell on the front of the mirror senses when it is becoming dark outside. Another photocell, facing rearward, senses headlamps behind you. To turn the electrochromic feature off, press the button in the center of the mirror again. To keep the photocells operating well, occasionally clean them with a cotton swab and glass cleaner. Adjust each mirror so you can see the side of your vehicle and the area behind your vehicle. These mirrors can also be folded rearward manually. This feature is particularly useful in automatic car washes and when maneuvering your vehicle in narrow spaces. Power Outside Foldaway Mirrors The power mirror control switches are located near the driver's side window, on the armrest. Automatic Dimming/Heated Outside Rearview Mirror With this feature, the driver's side outside mirror will adjust for the glare of headlamps behind you. This feature is controlled by the on and off settings on the electrochromic automatic dimming rearview mirror. (See "Electrochromic Automatic Dimming Rearview Mirror") earlier in this section. The left and right outside mirrors are also heated when you activate the rear window defogger. (See "Rear Window Defogger" in the Index.) Both outside mirrors can be folded forward or rearward. This feature is particularly useful in automatic car washes. To choose either the left or right outside mirror, move the top switch from left through neutral to right. Press any of the four buttons located below the top switch to move the mirrors in the desired direction. 2-48
