What is the symbol for rearview mirror heating?
1 Answers
The rearview mirror heating button icon is shaped like three upward-curving arrows inside a square frame. The rearview mirror heating function refers to the ability of the rearview mirror to be heated by electric heating wires embedded behind the mirror when the car is driving in rainy, snowy, or foggy weather, ensuring a clear mirror surface. The rearview mirror heating is particularly useful in rainy or snowy weather. When activated, the heater behind the mirror quickly warms the surface, gradually removing rainwater or fog from the mirror, eliminating the need for the driver to manually wipe the mirror frequently, thereby reducing driving hazards. How to use the rearview mirror heating function: There are generally two ways to activate the rearview mirror heating function. One is combined with the electric rearview mirror adjustment function button—simply rotate the knob to turn it on. The other is located on the air conditioning control panel—press the heating button to activate it. There is no need to manually adjust the angle, as the driver's side has an adjustment button. Principle of the rearview mirror heating function: After pressing the button, the electric heater behind the rearview mirror glass rapidly heats up to a fixed temperature within a few minutes, typically between 35-60 degrees Celsius. Heat will dissipate from the left and right rearview mirrors. Simultaneously, due to the rise in temperature and evaporation, water droplets on the mirror surface will gradually shrink, and fog will slowly disappear, thereby heating the mirror and removing frost. If the rain is particularly heavy, its effectiveness may decrease, and the impact may not be noticeable. Precautions for using the rearview mirror heating function: The principle of rearview mirror heating involves adding electric heating wires to the rearview mirror. These wires consume a significant amount of electricity. When using the rearview mirror heating function, ensure the car is in a running state. Avoid activating the rearview mirror heating function when the car is stationary to prevent draining the car battery, which could result in insufficient power to start the car. Other methods for defogging the rearview mirror include: Opening windows for air circulation: Crack open the side windows slightly to allow air to flow between the inside and outside of the car, reducing the temperature difference and causing the fog to gradually disappear. Adjusting the car's air conditioning to the appropriate setting can use the hot air blown by the air conditioner to defog the mirrors.
