As a seasoned Mercedes driver who helps friends with this feature regularly, setting up auto-folding mirrors after locking is quite straightforward. Start the engine after getting in the car, then locate the dashboard button below the left side of the steering wheel and press it to enter the menu. Use the up/down arrows to select "Vehicle Settings," then navigate to the mirror options and toggle the "Fold on Lock" switch. If the menu seems complicated, you can also remotely configure it via the Mercedes App under Convenience Features in the vehicle status section. I recommend making a habit of enabling this – it protects mirrors from scratches when parked (especially useful in tight residential parking spots) and saves space. Just remember to periodically check mirror cleanliness as folded mirrors might get stuck during rainy days. The whole process takes under two minutes, and you'll master it after one try.
