How to Adjust the Rearview Mirrors on the Roewe i5?

Maintaining the correct sitting posture is the prerequisite for adjusting the rearview mirrors. If the posture is incorrect, the adjusted mirrors will not function as intended. Below are the methods for adjusting the rearview mirrors: 1. Central rearview mirror: Adjust the left and right positions so that the left edge of the mirror just cuts off your right ear in the reflection. For the up and down positions, place the distant horizon in the center of the mirror. 2. Left rearview mirror: For the up and down positions, place the distant horizon in the center. For the left and right positions, adjust so that the body of the car occupies 1/4 of the mirror's area. 3. Right rearview mirror: Since the driver's seat is on the left, it is harder to control the right side of the vehicle. When adjusting the up and down positions of the right rearview mirror, the ground should occupy a larger area, about 2/3 of the mirror. For the left and right positions, adjust so that the body of the car occupies 1/4 of the area.

Adjusting the rearview mirrors on the Roewe i5 is quite simple. There's usually a control lever or button on the inner side of the door—gently push it to change the mirror angle. I recommend doing this after parking in a safe spot to avoid distractions. The goal is to have the mirrors cover most blind spots behind and to the sides of the car. Specifically, the left mirror should provide a full view of the road, while the right mirror can be tilted slightly downward for added safety. Remember, the mirror angle should allow you to check behind you without excessive head movement, reducing lane-change accidents. If you’ve driven models with power-adjustable mirrors, the Roewe i5’s system is quite responsive—just tweak it slowly to find the ideal position. Beginners can refer to the manual first to get familiar. While adjustments aren’t needed often, mastering this habit boosts driving confidence.

I often commute in my Roewe i5, and the rearview mirror adjustment buttons are located in the control area on the driver's side door handle. Just press them for fine-tuning. After settling into your seat, push the buttons to adjust the mirror forward, backward, left, or right until it reflects the area behind the car and the wheels, minimizing blind spots when changing lanes. Avoid adjusting while driving, as it can distract you. It's best to practice in an open area—finding a fixed position makes it easier to remember. After adjustment, it feels much more stable and safer, helping to avoid scratches.

Adjust the rearview mirror to ensure safety first: The buttons for the Roewe i5 are located on the driver's side door panel. Gently push the buttons to move the mirror. The goal is to position the mirror so you can see the vehicles behind and the ground, reducing blind spots, especially when changing lanes. I prefer to adjust it so there's less sky and more ground in the mirror, providing a wider field of view. A simple adjustment can help prevent accidents.

As an owner of the Roewe i5, I believe adjusting the rearview mirrors is a matter of habit. Locate the round control button on the door and gently press it to move the mirror. Adjust it until you can clearly see the roadside in the mirror, ensuring safety when reversing or changing lanes. Once set for long drives, leave it fixed there for convenience.

Adjusting rearview mirrors is crucial for novice drivers: The Roewe i5 has adjustment buttons on the door. After settling in, push the buttons to move the mirror. Adjust the mirrors to display the road behind the car and the side blind spots. Take your time and don't rush; setting them to a comfortable angle enhances safety.
