Steering Wheel Heating; Mirrors - BMW X5 2002 Owner's Manual

Steering wheel heating

Steering wheel heating functions in
ignition key position 2.
Press the button to activate or deacti-
vate this system.
The lamp within the button lights up
when the steering wheel heating is in
operation.
If you have a steering wheel with multi-
function buttons without steering wheel
heating, the button for the recirculated-
air mode is in this location, refer to
page 22.

Mirrors

*
Exterior mirrors
1 Mirror switch for 4-way adjustment
2 Left/right selector switch
Before going through a car wash,
manually fold the exterior mirrors
inward, otherwise they could be
damaged, depending on the width of
the car wash system.<
Adjusting manually
You can also adjust the mirrors manu-
ally:
Press on the outer edges of their
lenses.
To store the mirror settings, refer to
"Seat, mirror and steering wheel
memory" on page 50.
Convex mirror
The passenger-side mirror
features a convex lens. When esti-
mating the distance between yourself
and other traffic, bear in mind that the
objects reflected in the mirror are closer
than they appear. This means that esti-
mations of the distance to following
traffic should not be regarded as
precise.<
Self-defrosting mirrors
Both mirrors are defrosted automati-
cally when the ignition key is in
position 2.
