* for folding mirrors in and out

By pressing button 3 repeatedly, you

can fold the mirrors in and out. This is,

for example, advantageous in car

washes, narrow streets or for bringing a

mirror folded forward into the proper

position again.

Folding in is possible up to a

speed of approx. 6 mph/

10 km/h.<

Before going through a car wash,

manually, or with button 3 fold the

exterior mirrors inward, otherwise they

could be damaged, depending on the

width of the car wash system.<

Adjusting manually

You can also adjust the mirrors manu-

ally:

Press on the outer edges of their

lenses.

To store the mirror settings, refer to

Seat, mirror and steering wheel mem-

ory on page 50.

Convex mirror

The passenger-side mirror fea-

tures a convex lens. When esti-

mating the distance between yourself

and other traffic, bear in mind that the

objects reflected in the mirror are closer

than they appear. This means that esti-

mations of the distance to following

traffic should not be regarded as pre-

cise.<

Self-defrosting mirrors

Both mirrors are defrosted automati-

cally when the ignition key is in posi-

tion 2.

Interior rearview mirror

To reduce glare from vehicles behind

you when you are driving at night, tilt

the mirror by turning the button.
