WARNING
Convex (curved outward) or a spherical exterior mirrors increase the vision
■
field. They do, however, make objects appear smaller in the mirror. These mir-
rors are therefore only of limited use for estimating distances to the following
vehicles.
Whenever possible use the interior mirror for estimating the distances to
■
the following vehicles.
CAUTION
Never mechanically fold in or fold back the exterior mirrors with the fold-in func-
tion by hand as this will damage the electric drive.
Note
If the exterior mirrors were folded in using the rotary knob, they can only be fol-
■
ded back into the driving position using the rotary knob.
If the exterior mirrors were folded in using the remote control key and if the ro-
■
tary knob was in the fold-in position before the ignition was switched on, the mir-
rors will remain in the fold-in position the next time the ignition is switched on.
The mirrors are folded back into the driving position after the rotary knob is
turned from the position to a different one.
Do not touch the surface of the exterior mirrors if the exterior mirror heater is
■
switched on.
If the power setting function fails at any time, the exterior mirrors can be set by
■
hand by pressing on the edge of the mirror surface.
Contact your ŠKODA specialist garage if there is a fault with the power setting
■
of the exterior mirrors.
Automatic dimming exterior mirror on the driver's side
The exterior mirror on the driver's side is dimmed together with the interior mir-
ror. If the automatic dimming is switched on, the mirror dims automatically de-
pending on the light striking the mirror from the rear.

Using the system
When the interior lights are switched on or the reverse gear is engaged, the mir-
ror always moves back into the basic position (not dimmed).
Note
Automatic mirror dimming operates only properly if the light striking the rear of
■
the interior rear-view mirror is not affected by other objects.
Do not affix any stickers in front of the light sensor, so that they do not impair
■
the automatic dimming function or put it out of operation.
If the automatic interior mirror dimming is switched off, the exterior mirror dim-
■
ming is also switched off.
