BMW 525 rearview mirror tilt-down setting method is as follows: 1. The rearview mirror adjustment switch is next to the window lift and can be moved left or right. 2. The rearview mirror adjustment switch is turned to the left to turn on and to the right to turn off. The following is the setting method for the automatic tilt-down steps of BMW left and right rearview mirrors: 1. Start the engine and confirm that the rearview mirror adjustment switch is on the "left side". 2. The correct seat memory setting function must be available. 3. Call the seat memory and return the right mirror to the memory position. 4. Turn the rearview mirror adjustment switch to the "right side". 5. Shift to R gear and manually adjust the right rearview mirror to the "tilt-down position" you need. 6. Shift back to N gear and turn the rearview mirror adjustment switch back to the left. 7. Shift to R gear again for testing, and the right rearview mirror will also tilt down to the position you just adjusted. Then shift back to D/N/P gear, and the right rearview mirror will correctly return to the memory position.
After purchasing the BMW 525, the first thing I did was set up the rearview mirrors. You sit in the driver's seat and adjust the seat position first, so that the mirror settings are accurate. Then, locate those small buttons on the door—there's a four-way control knob on the left door handle for adjusting the left-right angle; push up or down to adjust the height. Remember, adjust the mirrors so you can just see the blind spots behind the car without blocking too much of your view. I used a mobile app to measure the blind spots, and with this setup, reversing has been particularly smooth. BMW mirrors are anti-glare, so don't worry about bright light. Regularly check if the mirrors are loose—safe driving is crucial, and I clean the glass surface every time I wash the car.
