How to Adjust the Right Rearview Mirror?

[Liam]

To adjust the left and right rearview mirrors, start with the right rearview mirror. Ensure that the top of the mirror allows you to see the rear door handle, while keeping the front door handle centered in the mirror. The adjustment method for the left rearview mirror is similar to the right one. Make sure you can see the left rear wheel when parking sideways, which helps in positioning the left rear wheel during parallel parking.

I've been driving for over a decade and feel adjusting the right rearview mirror is quite important. First, sit comfortably with your back against the seat and head lightly touching the headrest – this ensures an accurate viewing angle. Reach for the round knob or lever on the door panel; adjusting it moves the mirror. Set it so your car's door handle just disappears from view while still showing the ground near the rear wheels, preventing curb scrapes when reversing. On highways, position the distant horizon at the mirror's center to maintain clear rear visibility. Always readjust after driver changes or passengers, as seat movements alter the mirror angle. Keep the mirror clean in rain, and remember to use the defogger function.
