Rearview And Door Mirrors - Volvo V50 Owner's Manual

Door mirrors
The controls for adjusting the two door mirrors
are at the front of the driver's door armrest. The
rearview mirrors can be operated in ignition
position I and II.

centre.

The mirrors can be retracted for parking/driving
in narrow spaces. This can be carried out in
ignition position I and II.
Retracting the mirrors

2. Release the buttons. The mirrors automat-
ically stop in the fully retracted position.
IMPORTANT
Do not use a scraper to remove ice from the
mirrors as this could scratch the glass and
the water and dirt-repellent coating* could
be damaged. Use the defroster function
instead, see page 85 or 89.

Both door mirrors are the wide angled type
to provide optimal vision. Objects may
appear further away than they actually are.

rors.
