How to Use the Auto-Folding Mirrors on the Magotan?

You can set the mirrors and wipers via the CAR button on the infotainment system, selecting the synchronized adjustment function for the exterior mirrors using the function button. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Precautions for using the electric folding function: The exterior mirrors can be folded or unfolded only when there is no one within the vehicle's operating range. However, ensure that fingers are not caught between the exterior mirror and the mirror base when adjusting the mirrors to avoid unnecessary injuries. After using the electric folding function, do not manually fold or unfold the electric folding exterior mirrors mechanically, as this may damage the electric drive mechanism. 2. Benefits of folding mirrors: Mirrors with a folding function can be retracted when passing through narrow sections, improving the vehicle's maneuverability. When the driver leaves the vehicle, the mirrors can also be folded, which not only protects the mirror surface but also reduces parking space, effectively preventing scratches.

When I first started driving the Magotan, it took me some time to figure out how to operate the auto-folding mirrors. Simply put, you need to sit in the driver's seat and look toward the inner side of the door—there's a knob or button panel specifically for the mirrors. Find the area marked with the mirror icon, usually next to the knob or as a separate button. If you want to fold them manually, turn the knob to the folding position or press the folding button, and the mirrors will automatically retract; release it and they pop back out. If your car supports the auto function, you can also adjust the settings in the infotainment system to fold them automatically when locking the car, avoiding scratches in tight parking spots. I use this feature often—it’s super convenient for parking in my neighborhood. Also, don’t forget to regularly check if the mirrors move smoothly. If debris gets stuck, clean it out, or the motor could get damaged. Overall, the design is very user-friendly, and you’ll get used to it after a few tries.

As a Magotan owner, I'm quite satisfied with the automatic folding mirrors, which protect my car from scratches. The operation is usually achieved through the door console switch. When you open the door, you can see the mirror adjustment panel with clear icons, such as an arrow or a folding symbol. Just press lightly or turn the knob to the specified angle, and the mirrors will automatically fold in. I recommend beginners try the manual mode first to get familiar with the feel, then enable the automatic option in the vehicle menu. This way, the mirrors will automatically retract when locking the car and unfold when unlocking. During daily driving, I often check after car washes to ensure no dust enters the motor, which could otherwise cause increased noise. This design combines convenience and safety, making it ideal for crowded urban environments. If you frequently encounter rain, you can also try the mirror heating function, all controlled from the same panel for added convenience.

Using the automatic folding mirrors on the Magotan is actually quite simple. After getting in the car, check the driver's side door panel for a button or knob marked with a folding icon. Press it or turn it to the position, and the mirrors will fold in; reverse the operation to restore them. Some models even come with a memory function, automatically returning the mirrors to their original position when the car is restarted. I prefer manual operation because it's faster. Remember to have the mechanic check the wiring during regular maintenance to prevent aging and malfunctions. This feature is really handy in tight parking spaces, saving you the worry of scratches.
