How to Adjust Car Rearview Mirrors Correctly?
1 Answers
The correct method for adjusting car rearview mirrors is as follows: 1. Left rearview mirror: Remember two indicators: 1/4 and 1/2. Simply put, the edge of the car body should occupy 1/4 of the entire mirror view, with the rest taking up the majority. For height adjustment, observe the distant horizon and position it in the center, with the sky and ground each occupying half. 2. Right rearview mirror: 1/4 and 2/3. Since the driver's seat is on the left side of the vehicle, visibility on the right side is often less clear than on the left. In practice, the ground portion should occupy about 2/3 of the mirror view when adjusting the up and down positions. For left and right positioning, similar to the left mirror, the car body should occupy 1/4 of the mirror view. 3. Central rearview mirror: Half and half. To adjust the central rearview mirror, first adjust your sitting posture. Some people prefer sitting very upright, while others lean back as if on a sofa, resulting in different angles and significant height differences in the mirror. After determining your posture, look up at the central mirror. You should be able to see the rear windshield (rear window) clearly, with the sky and ground each occupying about half of the view.
