Adjusting Exterior Mirrors
Adjust the exterior mirrors by touching
Controls > Quick Controls > Mirrors. Use the
scroll buttons on the steering wheel to adjust
each mirror to its desired position:
• To move the mirror up or down, roll the
corresponding scroll button up or down.
• To move the mirror inward or outward,
press the corresponding scroll button to
the left or right.
The driver's side mirror automatically dims in
low lighting conditions (for example, when
driving at night or through a tunnel) in
proportion to the level of glare from the
headlights of a vehicle behind you (except
when in Reverse).
If equipped with the premium package, both
exterior mirrors have heaters that turn on and
off with the rear window defroster.
You can fold the mirrors inward for parking in
tight spaces by touching Controls > Quick
Controls > Fold. The mirrors remain folded
until your driving speed reaches 31 mph (50
km/h), or until you touch Fold again to unfold
the mirrors.
Note: You cannot fold a mirror if your driving
speed exceeds 31 mph (50 km/h).
Mirror Auto Tilt - Premium Package
If equipped with the premium package, both
exterior mirrors can automatically tilt
downward when Model 3 is shifted into
Reverse. When you shift back into Drive, the
mirrors return to their normal (upward)
position.
To turn this feature on or off, touch Controls >
Quick Controls > Mirrors > Mirror Auto Tilt.
