Where is the automatic folding switch for the Roewe i5 rearview mirror?
2 Answers
The Roewe i5 rearview mirror folding switch is located below the central control screen, integrated with the rear windshield heating button. After pressing the automatic folding button or rotating the button to the automatic folding position, both side mirrors will fold simultaneously. Generally, the automatically folded mirrors will unfold automatically the next time the vehicle is started. Here is some extended information about automatic folding mirrors: 1. Automatic folding mirrors: The rearview mirror folding function allows the car's side mirrors to fold and retract when necessary, available in both manual and electric versions. 2. Function: They can be retracted when passing through narrow sections, improving the vehicle's passability. When the driver leaves the car, the mirrors can also be folded, not only protecting the mirror surface but also reducing parking space, effectively avoiding scratches.
Every time I drive my Roewe i5, the auto-folding mirror switch is located on the door armrest, specifically on the window-side panel near the driver's seat. There's a small button with a folded mirror icon—just press it to retract the side mirrors. They also fold automatically when locking the car, saving space. However, configurations vary by trim. If your Roewe i5 is a higher-end model, the switch might be integrated into the infotainment system's settings menu, operable via the touchscreen. Can't find the button? Don't worry—check around the door handle for the icon or refer to the owner's manual's diagram. I initially overlooked this detail too but got used to it over time. If the mirrors fail to fold, it could be a power or button issue—promptly check the fuse or visit a service center for adjustment to ensure clear rear visibility and avoid road hazards. Overall, this thoughtful design makes daily parking a breeze.
