In the X-Trail, the option button for automatically folding the mirrors when locking the car is located in the MENU of the central control screen. Below are the specific details about the X-Trail: 1. Configuration: Equipped with Hill Start Assist, Hill Descent Control, Electronic Brake Limited Slip Differential (B-LSD), Yaw Moment Control, and Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC). 2. Transmission: The intelligent all-mode 4WD system is paired with Nissan's Xtronic-CVT continuously variable transmission. 3. Suspension: The X-Trail features a new chassis and suspension system, with the rear suspension adopting an advanced multi-link independent structure. The X-Trail boasts a ground clearance of over 200 mm.

As someone who loves tinkering with cars, I noticed when driving the X-Trail that the power-folding mirror button is right there on the door panel, near the window control area on the left side. There's a cluster of small buttons there, and the one at the edge with the mirror icon is it. Just press the button, and the mirrors automatically fold in – super convenient. But if you want the mirrors to fold automatically when locking the car, you'll need to set it up in the vehicle's system. Open the center console screen, go to the vehicle settings menu, scroll to the external devices option, and enable the auto-fold when locking feature. This design is quite practical for preventing mirror damage in tight parking spots. I've used it for years without any issues and recommend new owners try setting it up instead of just using the manual button operation.

As a new driver who just bought a Nissan X-Trail last month, it took me some time to locate this button initially. It's positioned on the door handle area next to the driver's seat, just above the window control buttons. Look closely and you'll spot a small folding button - pressing it retracts the mirrors. The auto-folding feature might not be enabled by default; you'll need to activate it either via the remote key or through the central control screen settings. The setup process is straightforward: start the car, tap the vehicle icon on the central screen, select comfort settings, then locate the external equipment option. Once enabled, the mirrors will automatically fold when locking the car, which is incredibly convenient. This feature proves especially useful in urban areas to prevent alleyway scrapes. Maintenance is simple too - just periodically check the button contacts.

As a parent with two kids, I use the X-Trail's mirror folding button every day. It's located on the driver's door panel, near the window controls, clearly marked with a mirror icon. Press it to fold the mirrors with one click—I do this before the kids get in to prevent them from accidentally bumping and getting hurt. For auto-folding setup: either hold the remote lock button for a few seconds or adjust via the in-car screen. Once enabled in the safety settings, mirrors automatically retract when locking, making parking in our neighborhood safer. It’s a habit that extends the car’s lifespan with minimal battery impact.
