Does the new 3 Series have heated mirrors?
1 Answers
The BMW new 3 Series is equipped with heated mirrors. This model features an automatic heating function. When the temperature difference between the interior and exterior of the vehicle reaches 6 degrees, the BMW will automatically heat up, removing fog from the exterior mirrors. Principle of mirror heating: Electric heating elements (heating films) are installed inside the mirror lenses on both sides. During rainy or snowy weather, when the driver activates the mirror heating function, the heating elements rapidly warm up to a set temperature (typically between 35-60 degrees Celsius) within minutes, effectively defogging and deicing the mirrors. Mirror heating switch (knob type): Located on the driver's side door, there's a knob in the front left position with several symbols: L, 0, R, and a heating symbol. The heating symbol, represented by three upward-curving arrows inside a square frame, serves as the mirror heating switch. Turning the knob to this symbol activates the mirror heating function.
