comes on automatically when rear window heating is
turned on.The mirrors can tilt in both directions in the event of a
collision.
To reset the mirror in the correct position, first set it
in the fully closed position by keeping the control
pressed until the mirror stops, then open it.
If the mirror is moved out of its position manually, it is
possible to set it back to the correct position
manually, although it is preferable to move it
electrically. If the mirror is moved out of its position
electrically, it is COMPULSORY to set it back
electrically to its correct position.
If the open mirror makes it difficult to pass through
narrow gaps, fold it from position 1 to position 2.
