How to Adjust the Rearview Mirror Lens?
2 Answers
First, locate the rearview mirror adjustment button on the left side of the steering wheel. "L" represents the left rearview mirror, and "R" represents the right rearview mirror. To adjust the left rearview mirror, press the "L" button. Press the left directional button to change the viewing angle of the mirror lens to the left. To adjust the right rearview mirror, press the "R" button. Continuously press the up and down directional buttons to adjust the vertical viewing angle of the mirror lens until it reaches the desired position.
As a seasoned driver, I've been fine-tuning rearview mirrors for over a decade. For the left mirror, position the horizon in the center with just a quarter of your car visible – the key is seeing the rear wheel trajectory. Don't follow that rigid driving school angle for the right mirror; setting it higher to view the entire rear lane is safer, with the sky occupying only the top fifth of the mirror. At red lights, manually pushing the mirror for micro-adjustments beats button controls, especially in rain – raising it half a centimeter instantly improves visibility. Frequent highway drivers should angle the right mirror 15 degrees outward – this eliminates blind spots better than any electronic gadget. Always test adjustments with a short drive; properly aligned mirrors will show buildings perfectly level and plumb in reflection.
