Inside rearview mirror

Before driving your vehicle, check to see that your inside rearview mirror is properly positioned. Adjust the rearview mirror so that the view through the rear window is properly centered.

Make sure your line of sight is not obstructed. Do not place objects on the rear seat or in the cargo area that may interfere with your vision through the rear window.

To prevent serious injury during a collision or deployment of the airbag, do not modify the rearview mirror and do not install a wide mirror.

Never adjust the mirror while driving. This may cause loss of vehicle control and result in a collision.

When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or similar material dampened with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the mirror as this may cause the liquid cleaner to enter the mirror housing.

  1. Indicator

When the engine is running, the glare from vehicle headlamps behind you is automatically controlled by the sensor mounted in the rearview mirror.

Whenever the gear is shifted to R (Reverse), the mirror automatically goes to the brightest setting in order to improve the driver's view behind the vehicle.

Digital center mirror (DCM)

The digital center mirror is a system that uses the camera on the rear of the vehicle and displays the rear image on the screen of the digital center mirror. The digital center mirror allows the driver to see the rear view despite obstructions, such as the headrest or luggage, ensuring rear visibility.

Be sure to read the precautions and instructions before using the digital center mirror. Failure to follow the precautions and instructions for proper use of digital center mirror may result in serious injury:

  • You are responsible for driving safely when using the digital center mirror. It is not a substitute for safe driving practices. Always check the blind spot of the digital center mirror before driving.

  • Never operate the digital center mirror while driving. This may cause loss of vehicle control and result in a collision.

  • Never disassemble or modify the digital center mirror’s camera unit or wirings.

    If you notice smoke or any smell coming from the digital center mirror, stop using the system immediately. We recommend that the system be inspected by an authorized retailer of Genesis Branded products.

  • The image areas displayed in the conventional rearview mirror mode and the digital center mirror mode are different. Check the image areas displayed in different modes before driving the vehicle.

  • Switch to the conventional rearview mirror mode when the digital center mirror is not functioning normally. A light beam or flash may appear if strong light sources such as direct sunlight or vehicle headlights obstruct the rearview camera.

  • Always keep the rear view camera lens clean. If the lens is blocked or covered, the digital center mirror may not operate normally. Clean with a damp soft cloth.
