WARNING

Automatic anti-dazzle mirrors contain an electrolyte fluid which could leak if the mirror is broken. This fluid could cause irritation to the skin, eyes and respiratory organs.

• The leaking electrolyte fluid could cause irritation to the skin, eyes and respiratory organs, especially in people who suffer from asthma or similar illnesses. Make sure there is a sufficient supply of fresh air and get out of the vehicle. If this is not possible, open all of the windows and doors.

• If this electrolyte fluid gets into the eyes or onto the skin, immediately wash the area with lots of water for at least 15 minutes and consult a doctor.

• If the electrolyte fluid gets onto shoes or clothing, wash immediately with lots of water for at least 15 minutes. Clean shoes and clothes thoroughly before wearing them again.

• If the electrolyte fluid is swallowed, immediately rinse the mouth out with lots of water for at least 15 minutes. Do not force any vomiting unless instructed to do so by a doctor. Seek medical assistance immediately.

NOTICE

If the glass of an automatic anti-dazzle mirror is broken, electrolyte fluid could leak from the mirror. These fluids will corrode plastic surfaces. Remove the fluid as soon as possible by using a wet sponge, for example.
