The mirrors are heated (depending on the outside temperature) when the rear
window heater ⇒ page 123 is switched on.

gaged and the vehicle is driven forwards at a speed above 15 km/h, or when
the mirror control is turned to position
Caution
•
Rear view convex or aspheric* mirrors increase the field of vision,
although objects appear smaller and further away in the mirrors. Therefore,
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 electric control. Do
not readjust the mirror housing by hand, as this will interfere with the mirror
adjuster function.
Note
If the electrical adjustment ever fails to operate, the mirrors can be adjusted
by hand by lightly pressing the edge of the mirror glass.
