Storing the position
The mirror positions are stored in the key memory when the vehicle has been locked with the remote key. When the vehicle is unlocked with the same remote control the mirrors and the driver's seat adopt the stored positions when the driver's door is opened.
The function can be activated/deactivated in MY CAR under Settings Car settings Car key memory Position of door mirrors and driver's seat in key. See page 133 for a description of the menu system.
Tilting the door mirrors when parking*
The door mirrors can be tilted down to help give the driver a better view along the sides of the vehicle, for example when parallel parking.
To activate this function, select reverse gear and press the L or R mirror control button to tilt the mirror down.
The function can be activated/deactivated in MY CAR under Settings Car settings Side mirror settings Tilt left mirror or Tilt right mirror. See page 133 for a description of the menu system.
The door mirror will reset to its normal position:
- after 10 seconds when reverse is disengaged and the car remains stopped.
- immediately when reverse is disengaged and the vehicle's forward speed exceeds approximately 6 mph (10 km/h).
- immediately if you press the corresponding L or R button again.

- when the side mirrors are folded in.
NOTE
Only one mirror can be tilted down at a time.
