How to adjust the rearview mirror of Lavida car?

Lavida car rearview mirror adjustment method: There is a button switch marked with L and R on the door trim panel of the driver's compartment, where L adjusts the left side and R adjusts the right side. The car rearview mirror reflects the situation behind, beside, and below the car, allowing the driver to indirectly see these positions clearly. It plays the role of a "second eye," expanding the driver's field of vision. Lavida is the first independently developed A-class car by Shanghai Volkswagen, with body dimensions of 4605mm in length, 1765mm in width, and 1460mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2610mm. In terms of appearance, the Lavida's waistline design is quite sharp, while retaining a side profile similar to the Octavia. The rear and taillight design are also highly original, differing from the taillight group design of the Volkswagen family. The Lavida's taillight group design emphasizes more of a front and rear echo with the front face.

I've been driving a Lavida for over a decade, and adjusting the rearview mirrors is all about developing habits. First, adjust your seat to the most comfortable position to ensure a natural field of vision. The interior rearview mirror should perfectly cover the entire rear windshield, allowing you to see all lanes behind you. Adjust the left exterior mirror so that the car body occupies only the right quarter of the mirror, with the horizon in the middle. The right mirror is more critical—keep the car body at a quarter, but push the horizon slightly upward in the mirror to see the curb clearly when reversing. Remember, the Lavida's electric adjustment knob is on the driver's door panel: press L for the left mirror, R for the right, and use the joystick to move the mirror. For manual adjustment, gently push the mirror frame. Always check blind spots after adjustment—turning your head is safer than relying solely on mirrors. On rainy days, don’t forget the rearview mirror heating function; press the small square icon on the AC panel.

As a daily commuter, the first thing I do after getting in the car is adjusting the mirrors. With the Lavida, you need to align the mirrors with your driving posture - only after setting the seat properly can you find the right angle. I prefer having the horizon in the left side mirror positioned in the upper half, which gives me more sky view and broader visibility. For the right mirror, I adjust it to show more ground, which is particularly useful for parking. For manual adjustment models, just use your fingertips to push the mirror edges - don't apply too much force to avoid damage. For power-adjustable versions, select the correct L or R button on the door panel and gently push the joystick to reposition the mirror. Here's a tip: after adjustment, test lane changing on a safe road section to ensure the mirror properly covers the front of adjacent lane vehicles. The mirror defroster (marked with a wavy line and small square symbol on the button) works wonders for winter frost. Different body types require mirror readjustment - it's recommended to set and save your preferred seat memory position for household use.

The adjustment of the Lavida's rearview mirrors mainly involves three steps: First, adjust the interior rearview mirror to ensure a full view of the rear windshield. There's a simple standard for the exterior mirrors: the car's edge should occupy 1/4 of the mirror, with the horizon centered on the left and slightly tilted downward on the right to see the ground. The electric buttons on the door panel are convenient—first press L or R to select the mirror, then use the joystick to push or pull for angle adjustment. For manual versions, gently push the mirror frame to adjust. Remember to turn on the rearview mirror heating in rainy weather, which shares the same button with the rear window defogger. Always check the mirror blind spots before changing lanes. When reversing, it's advisable to tilt the right rearview mirror downward slightly for a clearer view of the curb, enhancing safety. Spending a minute adjusting the mirrors before driving significantly boosts driving confidence.
