How to position the central rearview mirror to avoid glare

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Rearview mirror

Video tutorial

To many people it may seem obvious, but it is not: the rearview mirror - if we do not have tinted rear windows - can be of great help in the evening to avoid being dazzled by the headlights of the car behind us. We should all know that the rearview mirror has two positions: the normal one and the anti-dazzle one, but in reality it is something that no one explains to anyone and therefore we find ourselves in difficulty when we need to use it. If we are traveling in the evening, and the car behind us dazzles us, all we have to do is push forward the lever underneath; in this way the position of the mirror remains properly adjusted and we have a complete view, but in an anti-dazzle position.
