Storing the mirror positions, refer to Seat, mir-
ror and steering wheel memory on page 42.
Manual adjustment
You can also adjust the mirrors manually by
pressing against the outer edges of their mirror
glass.
Folding mirrors in and out*
Pressing button 3 allows you to fold mirrors
in and out up to a speed of approx. 20 mph/
30 km/h. This is advantageous, for example, in
car washes, narrow streets or for bringing mir-
rors that have been manually folded-in back into
the correct position. Folded-in mirrors automat-
ically fold down at a speed of approx. 25 mph/
40 km/h.
Before going through a car wash, fold the
mirrors inward manually, or with button 3,
otherwise they could be damaged, depending
on the width of the car wash system.<
Automatic heating
Below a certain outdoor temperature, both
exterior mirrors are automatically heated when
the motor is running or the ignition is switched
on.
