Last time I helped my cousin adjust the rearview mirror height on his Emgrand GS, I found it super easy. There's a square control panel on the driver's door with L marked on the left and R on the right. To adjust the height of the left mirror, first press the L button - you'll hear a click indicating it's selected, then use the up/down arrows to adjust. Same principle applies to the right side with the R button. Remember to maintain normal sitting posture while adjusting - don't lean forward or crane your neck, or the adjustment won't be accurate. I prefer setting the mirrors to show a bit of my car's door handle, which makes judging positions easier when reversing. If you can't see the controls clearly at night, just use your phone's flashlight for illumination.
Our family has been driving the Emgrand GS for three years, and I can adjust the rearview mirror height with my eyes closed. Look for the knob area with directional buttons on the left door armrest, press left or right to select the corresponding mirror, then use the up and down buttons like playing a game console. The key is to set the right angle: the rear of the car should occupy a quarter of the mirror, and the ground should be in the middle. Be careful not to set it too high or you'll only see the sky, nor too low or you'll just see the ground. On rainy days, I deliberately lower it a bit to check road conditions. After adjusting, always test the reversing effect—wrong mirror angles create huge blind spots.
