How to Fold the Side Mirrors on the Atenza?
1 Answers
The electric folding switch for the Atenza's side mirrors is located near the driver's side power window control area. The driver can fold the mirrors from inside the vehicle, and they will automatically unfold when the vehicle is started. More details are as follows: 1. As the widest component installed on a vehicle, side mirrors are most susceptible to impact in the event of a sideswipe. To minimize scratches, side mirrors need to have a folding function. 2. Foldable side mirrors can retract when passing through narrow sections, improving the vehicle's maneuverability. When the driver leaves the vehicle, the mirrors can also be folded, protecting the mirror surface, reducing parking space requirements, and effectively avoiding scrapes. 3. In most cases, the side mirror folding button is located in the electric switch area on the driver's side door, but some models are exceptions, such as those with the control in the gearshift base area. 4. Nowadays, mid-range and high-end vehicles generally feature foldable side mirrors. The folding function comes in two types: manual and electric. Manual folding requires the driver to reach outside the window or exit the vehicle to fold the mirrors, which is inconvenient and unsafe. This type is now rare. 5. The other type is electric folding, which is more common. Its advantage is that the driver can fold the mirrors from inside the vehicle, and they will automatically unfold when the vehicle is started. This feature is particularly useful for roadside parking in large cities, as folded mirrors save significant space and prevent the vehicle from suffering 'broken ear' damage.
