How to Adjust the Rearview Mirror on the Tiguan?
2 Answers
The adjustment of the rearview mirror on the Tiguan can be done by pressing the circular button on the mirror to move it up, down, left, or right, corresponding to the desired direction. To adjust the left rearview mirror, move the circular button to the L position, and so on for the others. The specific adjustment positions are as follows: 1. Adjust the horizon reflection in the left rearview mirror to the center of the mirror. 2. Adjust the reflection of the left side of the vehicle to occupy the right quarter of the mirror. 3. Adjust the horizon reflection in the right rearview mirror to two-thirds of the mirror's height. 4. Adjust the reflection of the right side of the vehicle to occupy the left quarter of the mirror.
As an enthusiast who enjoys studying car settings, I often adjust the rearview mirrors to ensure safe driving. On the Tiguan, the method is simple: first, sit in the driver's seat in your normal driving position; locate the control panel on the inner side of the door, where there are selection buttons for the left and right rearview mirrors—press the button marked L or R to choose which mirror to adjust; then use the circular directional key nearby to push up, down, left, or right, observing the angle change of the mirror outside the window, and adjust it slowly into position. The ideal position is when you can see a small part of your car's body in the mirror, such as a corner of the rear door, ensuring a wide field of view with no blind spots. You should check the mirrors after every long trip or bumpy road, as vibrations might shift them. If your Tiguan is a high-end model, it may come with electric folding or heating functions, but avoid folding them while driving. Once you develop this habit, driving becomes more reassuring and free of hidden risks. I recommend new owners start with simple settings and not worry too much about advanced features—basic adjustments are enough to enhance daily driving safety.
