The method to adjust the rearview mirror on a BMW X1 is as follows: 1. Press the unlock button on the remote control to open the car door; 2. Turn on the one-touch start switch to power on or let the engine idle; 3. Locate the rearview mirror adjustment switch near the left front door panel armrest; 4. The four triangular symbols (up, down, left, right) represent adjusting the outer rearview mirror in the corresponding directions; 5. The button on the lower left is for the rearview mirror folding function; 6. Slide the button on the right side left or right to adjust the BMW X1 rearview mirror.

Adjusting the BMW X1 rearview mirrors is actually quite simple. Just sit in the driver's seat in your normal position, but don't adjust them while driving as it's dangerous. There are several buttons and a small control lever on the door armrest. First, locate the selector switch, usually marked with L and R for left and right mirrors, and toggle it to the side you want to adjust. Then hold the control lever and move it up, down, left, or right to adjust the mirror angle. The key is to ensure the rearview mirror shows the center of your rear window and a bit of the car's side edge, so there are no blind spots when changing lanes. BMW's design is great for memory—some configurations even support storing mirror positions with seat memory, so you don't need to reset them when someone else drives. Remember to test and adjust the position once during the day, making driving much safer. If the mirror keeps shifting, it might be due to loose wiring and should be checked. Paying attention to these details when driving a new car will make daily use more reassuring.
