Gentex GENK5A-HPK Auto-Dimming Rear View Mirror with Compass for Honda

1. Продукт бүтүп калдыview

The Gentex GENK5A-HPK is an OEM replacement auto-dimming rear view mirror system designed for Honda vehicles. This advanced mirror enhances driving safety by automatically reducing glare from headlights of vehicles approaching from the rear, particularly during nighttime driving conditions.

The auto-dimming function utilizes sophisticated sensors and electronic circuitry to detect glare. As glare increases, the mirror darkens proportionally to preserve driver vision and improve reaction time. This electrochromic technology ensures a safer and more comfortable night driving experience.

Integrated into the mirror is a Path Point compass system, developed by Johnson Controls. This self-calibrating flux gate compass eliminates the need for manual calibration. It automatically detects and compensates for changes in vehicle magnetics, storing calibration data in memory to prevent recalibration after battery power loss. The electronic compass displays directional headings (N, NW, W, SW, S, SE, E, NE) in an easy-to-read digital format located on the mirror surface.

• A light sensor on the front of the mirror detects ambient light, and a second sensor on the rear detects glare from headlights behind the vehicle.
• The mirror will automatically darken to reduce glare. The degree of darkening adjusts continuously based on the intensity of the glare.
• To manually disable the auto-dimming function, press the power button located at the bottom center of the mirror (refer to Figure 1). The green indicator light will turn off.
• To re-enable the auto-dimming function, press the power button again. The green indicator light will illuminate.

• The compass automatically adjusts for magnetic interference and does not require manual calibration.
• Ensure no large metallic objects or strong magnetic fields are placed near the mirror, as this could temporarily affect compass accuracy.
