CAUTION
If one of the mirror housings is knocked out
●
of position (e.g. when parking), the mirrors
must first be fully retracted with the electric
control. Do not readjust the mirror housing by
hand, as this will interfere with the mirror ad-
juster function.
Before washing the vehicle in an automatic
●
car wash, please make sure to retract the ex-
terior mirrors to prevent them from being
damaged. Electrically retractable exterior
mirrors must not be folded in or out by hand.
Always use the electrical power control.
Note
If the electrical adjustment should fail to op-
erate, both of the mirrors can be adjusted by
hand by lightly pressing the edge of the mir-
ror glass.
