Lavida rearview mirror folding method: First, locate the switch inside the driver's side door, then rotate the control knob clockwise to the folding icon at the lower right position to electrically fold both left and right exterior mirrors. Due to differences in trim levels, some Lavida models are not equipped with the power folding function and require it as an optional or aftermarket installation. The Lavida measures 4670mm in length, 1806mm in width, and 1474mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2688mm. The vehicle is equipped with 1.4T and 1.5T four-cylinder engines, with a maximum output power of up to 150 kilowatts.

Folding the rearview mirrors on the Lavida is straightforward in the manual version. Every time I park in a tight spot, I simply push the mirror inward by hand to make it flush with the door, preventing scratches. The electric version is even more convenient—I usually sit in the driver's seat and locate a button on the door or center console, often round or square, press it gently for a few seconds, and the mirrors fold automatically. The key is understanding that the purpose of folding is to save space and protect the mirrors, especially useful in narrow parking spots or when passing through tight spaces. Avoid using excessive force during operation, as it can loosen the hinges. Last time, I accidentally pushed too hard and had to spend hundreds on repairs. For daily maintenance, just wipe off dust and periodically check if the mirror is stuck to ensure smooth operation—safety first.

What does it mean when the water temperature is displayed as high?

The reasons for displaying high water temperature are: 1. The cooling fan is not rotating or has malfunctioned; 2. Issues with the cooling medium or the coolant has been depleted; 3. The thermostat is damaged; 4. The radiator has malfunctioned; 5. Incorrect ignition method leading to excessive oil pressure; 6. The water pump has failed. Precautions to prevent engine water temperature from becoming too high: 1. Ensure sufficient cooling water is added; 2. Check if the thermostat is functioning properly. If the thermostat is abnormal, it can be temporarily removed, but a faulty thermostat should not be left at the water jacket outlet; 3. Park in a shaded area. If the engine water temperature is too high, choose a shaded area to park and cool down; 4. Continuously monitor the water temperature gauge while driving, ensuring it does not exceed 95 degrees. To enhance cooling air convection, the engine hood can be opened when parked to facilitate ventilation and heat dissipation.
