How to Set Up Automatic Mirror Folding for the 8th Generation Accord?
2 Answers
First, select the vehicle on the central control panel, press the left button on the MMI, then enter the interface and select vehicle settings, followed by central locking. Next, check the option to fold the mirrors, and the mirrors will automatically fold when the car is locked.
I also drive an eighth-generation Accord. The auto-folding feature on this car is very convenient and is mainly set up via the remote key. After parking and turning off the engine, quickly press the lock button twice in succession on the remote key, and the side mirrors will automatically fold in. If it doesn’t work, the feature might not be enabled. Try entering the car in a quiet place without starting the engine. Go to the vehicle settings menu on the central control screen, find the ‘Mirrors’ option, check the auto-folding option, and save it. The setup location may vary slightly between different Accord versions, and the base model might not have this feature, requiring manual folding or installing an additional module. In practice, it’s much more hassle-free, helping avoid scratches when parking on the roadside and adding anti-theft protection. I recommend checking the user manual first to confirm details and avoid misoperation. With regular practice, it’ll become second nature.
