Mirrors and windows
MIRRORS
If fitted on your vehicle, the mirror is
supplemented by a 2nd lower mirror. This
mirror is spherical to broaden the field of
side vision. Objects observed are, in reality,
closer than they appear. Therefore, take this
into account in order to judge the distance
correctly.

If your vehicle is fitted with this function,
the mirrors can be folded electrically from
the inside, with the vehicle parked and the
ignition on:
- Place switch A in the centre position.
