The switch for the rearview mirror heating function is the same as the rear windshield heating button. When the car is running, press the REAR button. A small yellow light will illuminate, indicating that both the rearview mirror and rear window heating are activated simultaneously. After pressing the rearview mirror heating switch, the indicator light on the button will turn on, and the heating element will quickly warm up to a set temperature to achieve a defogging effect.

I drive frequently, and the heated mirror operation on the Mistra is very straightforward. Just look for the button with the rear window icon and wavy lines on the air conditioning control panel—press it, and when the light turns on, the feature activates. It works best on rainy days or when there’s morning fog; after pressing it, wait 5-10 minutes, and the condensation on the mirrors will clear, instantly improving visibility. Note that it only works when the engine is running, so don’t try it while the car is off. This small feature is crucial in winter to prevent accidents. If you often drive long distances, combining it with the recirculation mode can defog faster—keeping the mirrors clean is key. In short, it’s simple, practical, and safety comes first.

As an experienced car enthusiast, I find the heated mirror details on the Mistra very thoughtfully designed. The rear defroster symbol on the climate control panel activates both mirror and rear window heating when pressed. Operation is temperature-sensor based, delivering strongest performance in low temperatures, and may automatically shut off after approximately 15 minutes to prevent overheating. The defogging process prioritizes electrical safety – avoid prolonged use to preserve battery health. Engaging this feature during rainy drives, combined with AC airflow, significantly enhances safety. Regular mirror surface cleaning improves heating efficiency, and keeping the fuse manual handy is advised. Overall, this user-friendly function eliminates manual hassle.
