Lights and Visibility80
• Do not affix any stickers in front of the light sensor, so that you do not
impair the automatic dimming function or put it out of operation.
• If you switch off the automatic dimming interior rear-view mirror, also
the exterior mirror dimming is switched off.
Exterior mirrors
You can adjust the exterior mirrors electrically*.
The exterior mirror heater only operates when the engine is
running and up to an outside temperature of +20 °C.
Heating of the external mirror
– Turn the rotary knob to position
⇒ fig. 59.
Adjusting left and right exterior mirrors simultaneously
– Turn the rotary knob to position
. The movement of the mirror
surface is identical to the movement of the rotary knob.
Adjusting the right-hand exterior mirror
– Turn the rotary knob to position
. The movement of the mirror
surface is identical to the movement of the rotary knob.
Switching off operating control
– Turn the rotary knob to position
.
Tilting surface of front passenger exterior mirror*
When the rotary knob is in position ⇒ fig. 59 and the reverse gear is
engaged, the surface of the mirror tilts down slightly. This provides an aid
in seeing the kerb of the pavement when parking the car.
The mirror returns back into its initial position, if the speed is more than 15
km/h or the rotary knob is moved out of the position and put into another
position.
Memory for exterior mirrors*
On vehicles fitted with a memory for the driver seat, the relevant setting of
the exterior mirror is also stored automatically when the seat position is
stored ⇒ page 82.
WARNING
• Convex (curved outward) or aspherical exterior mirrors
increase the vision field. They do, however, make objects appear
smaller in the mirror. These mirrors are only of limited use, there-
fore, for estimating distances to the following vehicles.
• Use whenever possible the interior rear-view mirror, for esti-
mating the distances to the following vehicles.
