How to adjust the rearview mirror of Toyota Corolla?
2 Answers
Toyota Corolla's central rearview mirror has an adjustment lever, while the left and right side mirrors can be adjusted electrically. Switch to the left to adjust the left mirror, and to the right to adjust the right mirror. The four arrows represent up, down, left, and right adjustments of the mirrors. Here is some extended information about the Toyota Corolla: 1. The new Corolla was officially launched in August 2019 as the twelfth-generation product of Toyota COROLLA, positioned as a compact car. 2. The new Corolla has a total of 8 models, including three hybrid models and five 1.2T version models. 3. The hybrid models are: 1.8L E-CVT Pioneer Edition, 1.8L E-CVT Elite Edition, and 1.8L E-CVT Flagship Edition.
Adjusting the rearview mirrors on a Toyota Corolla is actually quite simple. I've been driving this car for several years and always make it a habit to adjust them before getting on the road. For electric adjustment models, like those from 2020 onwards, there's a control switch on the driver's side door panel. The left button selects either the left or right mirror, while the right side has four directional arrows—pressing up, down, left, or right moves the mirror accordingly. First, sit in your normal driving position with the seat properly adjusted. Before starting the car, press the selection button for the corresponding mirror and adjust it slowly until you can see the edge of the lane behind you and a small portion of your car's body, which helps reduce blind spots. For older manual adjustment models, you'll need to push the mirror surface directly by hand—just be careful not to knock it out of position after adjusting. Once set, I always double-check to ensure both mirrors cover the entire lane for better visibility and easier parking/reversing. This habit has helped me avoid several minor accidents. Regularly check that the mirrors are stable and not loose, and during rainy seasons, keep the surfaces clean to prevent blurring—safety first, after all.
