Electric outside mirrors
These can be adjusted in four direc-
tions with the mirror control switch.
Changeover switch for the other mir-
ror:
Move switch to left – for driver's
mirror.
Move switch to right – for passenger's
mirror.
The mirrors can also be adjusted
manually by pressing the edge of the
glass.
For memorising mirror positions, see
"Seat, mirror and steering wheel posi-
tion memory", Page 42.
Tilting down mirror on passen-
ger's side
(automatic kerb position)
(only with seat, mirror and steering
wheel position memory)
1 Move the mirror changeover
switch to the driver's side position.
2 When reverse gear (or automatic
transmission selector lever posi-
tion R) is selected, the mirror on
the passenger's side will tilt down
slightly to display the ground along
the side of the car (for instance the
edge of the kerb).
This automatic function can be
switched off if not required: move the
mirror changeover switch to the pas-
senger's side position.
Aspherical wide-angle mirror*
The outer section is of aspherical con-
vex pattern, to provide a larger field of
view than the normal inner section of
the mirror.
This extends the driver's rearward
field of view and eliminates the blind
spot.
a
The passenger's side mirror is
convex (on the BMW 850CSi, both
outside mirrors are convex), so that
reflected objects are closer than they
seem. It can be difficult to estimate
the precise distance at which another
vehicle is following your car. The same
applies to the convex section of
partly-convex aspherical wide-angle
mirrors.

Electric mirror heating
Both outside mirrors are automatically
heated (controlled heat output) in igni-
tion key position 2.
