How to Set Up Automatic Mirror Folding When Locking the Accord

First, select the vehicle on the center console and press the left button on the MMI. Next, after entering the interface, choose vehicle settings and select central door locks. Then, check the "Fold Mirrors" option, and the mirrors will automatically fold when the car is locked.

Setting the auto-folding mirrors after locking on the Accord is actually quite convenient. Having driven several generations of Accords, I usually start with the vehicle settings. After starting the engine and keeping the doors closed, use the steering wheel controls or touchscreen to navigate to the main menu, then find the comfort features or exterior mirror settings. There should be an option called "Auto Fold on Lock"—just toggle it on. There might be slight variations between model years; for example, pre-2018 Accords sometimes require digging deeper into the infotainment settings, while newer models allow this adjustment directly from the instrument cluster menu. If the option isn’t visible, the feature might not be supported—some base trims lack it, leaving manual folding via the key fob as the only option. After setup, test it by locking the car to confirm the mirrors fold automatically. Always cross-check your owner’s manual for compatibility details.
