Volkswagen Passat rearview mirror adjustment method: On the left front door trim, there is a round button marked with "L" and "R" next to it. Rotate the mark on the button to L to adjust the position of the left rearview mirror, and conversely, rotate it to R to adjust the position of the right rearview mirror. You can move the button up, down, left, and right to achieve adjustment. The Volkswagen Passat adopts the family design language, with a multi-horizontal chrome-plated front grille, which not only further enhances the recognition of the front face but also makes the overall shape much younger and more fashionable. In terms of body size, the Volkswagen Passat has a length, width, and height of 4933mm, 1836mm, and 1469mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2871mm.
Adjusting the rearview mirrors on a Volkswagen Passat is actually quite simple, and I often have to do this while driving. First, locate a round knob or small panel on the driver's side door with icons indicating the left and right mirrors. Turn the knob to 'L' to adjust the left mirror and to 'R' for the right mirror. Then, use the adjacent small joystick or buttons to move the mirror up, down, left, or right. Remember to adjust it while seated in your driving position, with your eyes level to see behind you—not too high or too low—to avoid blind spots that could affect driving safety. Once, when I was a beginner, I didn’t adjust it properly and nearly had an accident. Now, I start the car to power the mirrors first, then adjust them slowly to ensure I can see the rear wheel position. Regularly check the mirror condition to avoid obstructions like frost or dirt, which is crucial. In short, practice makes perfect.
