Does anyone know how to adjust the contrast/brightness etc? The mirror has 3 buttons on rear, but they not accessible after installing :(

Never tried it on mine but the mirror only clips on to existing mirror in your car, same way you would remove it.

I've answered this before. Yes, two of them make adjustments, the third selects source.

Take mirror off of car rear mirror. Select the middle button, press until you get the setting you want to adjust. Then the high button is to increase, the lower button is to decrease. Brightness, contrast, color, and language...

Depends upon how thick your fingers are. You can loosen it via the adjustable arms.

The mirror has a wiring harness . Once you mount the mirror find the wires and push connectors together ! Piece of cake ! Took 2 minutes

I have the wall mount! Not sure if it that is or isn't but one thing I will tell you is the knob for the turn off / on switch is junk! Ours broke like the first week and had to send off to have repaired and the repaire lasted maybe a week!! Hope that they have changed that!! But a great mirror!!

I had the same problem with my mini 10 - holding the fn button (a few to the left of the space bar) and tapping f3 (for darker) or f4 (for brighter) is what did it for me! It's not a permanent fix, but it helped me! Good luck!

It is not as bright as it looked to be. I placed a piece of broken mirror that I had in the bottom under the LED light and the reflection from the mirror gives twice the brightness and it looks nice when it comes on after dark.

Oh i see what you mean now with the missing button. I just looked on mine and that button is black. When the backlight is on it looks like it is not lit up.

First off, I've only had the unit for a few days... The only setting I've tweaked is the back-light in 'Standard Picture' mode. I reduced it from the default of 60 down to 50, and it seemed to remove any distracting blooming or flash-lighting effects, of which it is only very slight in the first place, and really only noticeable if your room is dark, and the screen is black.

ive had my tv for a few months and its pretty crystal clear. my boyfriend figured out the settings for me but he just plays around with it. he has the setting like this: picture mode- standard, backlight- 72, contrast- 100, color- 25, brightness- 0, sharpness- 6.Now under advanced picture settings:auto brightness- off, dynalight- on, dynamic contrast- high, edge enhancer- off, noise reduction- off, clear scan- cinema.Good Luck

Lol it's simple think about it if the image is inverted "upside down" you turn it until it isn't. If you have a decent display you should be able to change "mirror" so the right side is on the right side if you catch my drift.

I tried those settings and omg so awful, my son died as I was changing them. I went back to default and it's so much better, brighter and sharper. When I changed the sharpness to 3 it was all foggy, how is that working for everyone???

I used a screw driver and popped it off. Then I removed the wires on back of mirror, reapplied to new mirror and popped mirror back in.

I was able to play with the Advanced Settings in service menu, back light menu. The default is to bright, just play with it and it should correct some of the color issues,

If you have tinted windows and dark colored seats, you can see it great. My car has a light colored interior and no tint on the windows so I have to tilt the mirror down to eliminate the glare. Compared to a $450.00 factory setup my $50.00 setup works great with the limitations it has. The ideal solution would be to install a monitor into a dark recess of the dash so there would be no glare. The problem is then you are looking down and not able to see your other mirrors in your peripheral vision.

To answer regarding brightness.. The "blue" circle n fw/rw buttons you see is only what will be lit up. It will show about as much as you see it! I think its enough to see in dark.. Its also going to be next to/close to you on your dash board (left of stereo right of steering wheel)So its easy access!

I go into Menu, Picture, Picture Settings, then you have to adjust the color and tint to get it right where you want it. I have my Contrast and Backlight at 100, Dynalight is on, Brightness at 50, Color at 70, Tint at 0, and sharpness at 14. Hope that helps

You can not see the mirrored sides and it looks more like a mirror, I love it !!

Go to the camera menu and then to settings. Maybe the brightness and contrast are too high. If not is not fixing it I would call Swann tech support at 1800 627-2799. they are open 24/7. If they can not fix it they will replace it if is still within warranty. Good luck
