How to Fold the Rearview Mirror of Geely Emgrand GS?

Some models of the Emgrand GS can fold the rearview mirrors electrically, while others can only fold them manually. Here is more information about the rearview mirrors of the Emgrand GS: 1. The electric folding of the rearview mirrors on the Emgrand GS means that the side rearview mirrors can be folded and retracted when necessary via a button inside the car. The driver can fold them from inside the vehicle, and the mirrors will automatically unfold when the car is started. The electric folding button is located in the electric switch area on the driver's side door. 2. For manual folding of the Emgrand GS rearview mirrors, the driver needs to reach out the window or get out of the car to fold them. First, press the back of the rearview mirror with your hand, then rotate it 90 degrees toward the car body to fold it. This method is both inconvenient and unsafe.

I just bought a Geely Emgrand GS, and folding the side mirrors is actually quite simple. My car is the manual version, and the operation method is to walk to the side of the door, find the connection point between the mirror and the car body—it’s slightly protruding—and gently push it inward with your finger. The mirror will then rotate and fold in. Don’t use too much force during the process, as it could damage the joint. I recommend practicing in a narrow parking lot first; with more practice, you’ll get the hang of it. For daily maintenance, I clean the mirror and the dust around the joint weekly with a soft cloth to prevent rust or stiffness. Before driving after folding, make sure the mirror is reset and securely fixed to avoid shaking while driving. This not only protects the car but also reduces the risk of scratches in crowded areas—a pretty handy little trick.

As someone who often works on my own car, I've dealt with the mirror folding on the Geely Emgrand GS. The first step is to confirm whether the car is the manual or electric version. For the manual version, simply grab the base of the mirror from the outside and push it toward the car body. When you feel resistance, apply a bit more force. Don't use too much strength, as it can easily damage the plastic parts. During regular maintenance, I check if the joints are well-lubricated. If they get stuck, I apply some silicone grease. After folding, the mirror will automatically lock into position. When parking in narrow alleys, this operation can save a lot of space and prevent collisions. I recommend beginners spend a few extra minutes practicing to get familiar with the angle, so they won't be afraid of it. For the electric version, you'll need to look for the button on the car, usually located in the driver's seat control area.

If you're a new driver of the Emgrand GS, don't stress about folding the side mirrors. My experience is that a gentle push at the base of the mirror near the car body will make it rotate inward and fold. The whole process should be done softly—avoid pulling hard. The first time, the position might not seem obvious, but after a couple of tries, you'll get the hang of it. Always return the mirrors to their original position before driving to ensure safe visibility. I often do this when parking in crowded urban areas to avoid scraping against other cars or walls. During maintenance, keep the joints clean to prevent dust buildup from affecting movement. It's a basic operation—take your time, and you'll be fine.
