Adjust the left and right positions so that the left edge of the mirror just cuts off the right ear of your reflection in the mirror. When adjusting the up and down positions, place the distant horizon in the center, and adjust the left and right positions so that the car body occupies 1/4 of the mirror's area. For the right rearview mirror, adjust the up and down positions to occupy about 2/3 of the mirror. Adjust the left and right positions so that the car body occupies 1/4 of the mirror's area.

When I first got my driver's license, I was totally confused about the rearview mirror buttons in the car. Later, I found out the operation is actually super simple: There's a small control panel near the driver's door handle with L and R labeled buttons, corresponding to the left and right side mirrors respectively. Press L to start adjusting the left mirror, then use the manual directional buttons (usually a small joystick or four-way button) to move the mirror up, down, left, or right until you can see the rear of the car and the tire position in the mirror—this way, you're less likely to scrape anything while reversing. I started practicing in parking lots, and after a few adjustments, I got the hang of it. Safety first—always adjust while parked, not while driving, to avoid accidents. Another tip: If the mirror is foggy or the buttons feel sticky, just gently wipe them with a damp cloth; don't take them apart randomly.

What to Do When the Car is Too Close to the Left Side?

Straighten back a little, then drive forward to the right a bit, and straighten back again. Repeating this two or three times should do the trick. Depending on the size of the space, if you realize it's not suitable right after entering, you can try reversing out the same way and then re-entering. If the car isn't too close, you can make slight adjustments. If it's extremely close, you'll need to be very careful and move out bit by bit.

How to adjust the low beam height of the 2021 Malibu XL?

Enter the driver's cabin and you can see the headlight height adjustment knob on the left side of the dashboard. Adjust according to the headlight height levels marked on the knob. When the highest light position is needed, turn the knob to the "0" position. To lower the light by one level, rotate the knob to the "1" position. The "2" position provides a relatively low light height. When the lowest light position is required, turn the knob to the "3" position.

How to Turn on the High Beam on a Mercedes-Benz?

There are two methods to turn on the high beam: The first method is to pull the left-hand stalk toward the driver to activate the high beam. Releasing the stalk will automatically reset it and turn off the high beam. The second method is to push the stalk away from the driver, which will keep the high beam on continuously. Below is an introduction to the high beam: 1. Vehicle lights adjust the intensity of light based on the distance of the filament: The high beam is focused at its focal point, emitting light that travels parallel, is more concentrated, and brighter, allowing it to illuminate distant and high objects. The low beam is positioned beyond its focal point (between 1x and 2x the focal length), emitting light in a divergent pattern to illuminate a larger area of nearby objects. 2. The difference between high beam and low beam: Both are used for nighttime illumination, but the high beam has a higher angle and longer range, while the low beam has a lower angle and shorter range. 3. It is generally advisable not to use the high beam when driving in the city: Urban areas typically have good lighting conditions. The high beam's elevated angle can easily dazzle oncoming drivers and pedestrians, impairing their vision and posing safety risks, as well as being considered impolite driving behavior. 4. Alternately switching the high beam on and off at night can serve as a substitute for the horn to alert nearby pedestrians and vehicles: This helps avoid excessive noise. On highways or in rural areas without streetlights, using the high beam can expand the field of vision. However, when encountering oncoming traffic, it is recommended to switch to the low beam for safety and courtesy considerations.
