Memory for exterior mirrors*
On vehicles with memory function for the driver's seat, the setting
of the exterior mirrors is automatically stored together with the seat
position
⇒
page 72.
Tilting function for exterior mirror on passenger side*
(only if equipped with memory for exterior mirrors)
When reverse gear is engaged, the mirror surface tilts slightly
downwards, provided the mirror control is switched to the exterior
mirror on the passenger's side (knob in position
⇒
page 66,
fig. 68). This provides a better view of the kerb when parking.
The mirror returns to its original position when reverse gear is
disengaged and the vehicle is driven forwards at a speed above
about 15 km/h. The mirror will also return to its original position
when the adjuster knob is turned to the position for the driver's
exterior mirror
or when the ignition is switched off.
If the position of the mirror surface is changed while the mirror is
tilted, this new position is automatically stored and assigned to the
remote control key when you disengage reverse gear.
Caution
•
Convex or wide-angle* exterior mirrors give a larger field of
vision. However, they also make objects appear further away than
they actually are. For this reason, you should not rely on these
mirrors for judging the distance of vehicles behind.
•
If one of the mirror housings is knocked out of position (e.g.
when parking), the mirrors must first be fully retracted with the elec-
tric control. Do not readjust the mirror housing by hand, as this will
interfere with the mirror adjuster function.
Note
If the electrical adjustment should ever fail to operate, the mirrors
can be adjusted by hand by lightly pressing the edge of the mirror
glass.
Applies to vehicles: with automatic anti-dazzle adjustment for exterior mirrors
Automatic anti-dazzle adjustment for exterior
mirrors
The exterior mirrors darken together with the automatically
adjusting interior mirror. When the ignition is on, the mirrors will
darken automatically according to the amount of light received (for
example from the headlights of a vehicle behind).
When the interior lights are switched on, or when reverse gear is
engaged, the mirrors revert to their original (i.e. not darkened)
condition.
WARNING
Electrolyte fluid can leak from a broken mirror. This fluid can cause
irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory organs. Wash thor-
oughly with clean water should you come into contact with this
fluid. Seek medical assistance if needed.
Caution
Electrolyte fluid leaking from a broken mirror can cause damage to
the paintwork or plastic surfaces. Use a sponge or similar to remove
the fluid as soon as possible.
Note
•
If you switch off the anti-dazzle function for the interior mirror,
this will also deactivate the anti-dazzle function for the exterior
mirrors.
•
The automatic anti-dazzle function will only work properly if the
sun blind* for the rear window is not in use and there are no other
objects preventing light from reaching the interior mirror.
