dimming feature
You can also adjust the mirrors manually by
pressing against the outer edges of their mirror
glass.
Folding exterior mirrors in and out
Pressing button 3 allows you to fold mirrors
in and out up to a speed of approx. 20 mph/
30
km/h. This is advantageous, for example, in
car washes, narrow streets or for bringing mir-
rors that have been manually folded-in back into
the correct position. Mirrors that were folded in
are folded out automatically at a speed of
approx. 25 mph/40 km/h.
This feature is controlled by two photocells in
the inside rearview mirror. One is integrated
within the mirror's lens, while the other is
located at an offset position on the rear of the
mirror housing.
Automatic heating
Below a certain outdoor temperature, both
exterior mirrors are automatically heated when
the motor is running or the ignition is switched
on.
For trouble-free operation, keep the photocells
clean and do not cover the area between the
interior rearview mirror and the windshield.
