Where is the exterior mirror heating button on the Geely Emgrand?

There are two types of control switches for the Emgrand's mirror heating: one is integrated with the electric mirror adjustment combination switch, and the other is located on the air conditioning control panel. Working principle of mirror heating: The principle of mirror heating is quite simple. It involves embedding a heating film behind the mirror lens, which utilizes the principle of resistance heating. The temperature can reach 35-60 degrees Celsius, making it particularly effective in winter or foggy conditions, while its effect is less noticeable at normal temperatures. Generally, mirror heating does not turn off automatically, so remember to turn it off after use to avoid draining the battery. Although the power consumption of mirror heating is not significant, it is not recommended to leave it on for extended periods to prevent damage to the heating element. Automatic mirror heating shut-off function: Some models may be equipped with an automatic shut-off function for mirror heating. This is typically set to a specific time (e.g., turning off after 15 minutes of heating) or to shut off once a certain temperature is reached (to maintain a temperature range). Such a design is more user-friendly, preventing the waste of battery power if the owner forgets to turn off the heating function.
I've driven a Geely Emgrand for several years. The rearview mirror heating button is usually found on the driver's side door control panel, right next to the mirror adjustment buttons. There's a small button with a rearview mirror and wavy lines symbol. Pressing it activates the defogging and water removal function, which is especially useful in rainy weather. This position is designed for easy one-handed operation while driving, enhancing both safety and convenience. For older models, it might be located in the air conditioning control panel area, adjacent to the rear window heating button. I recommend familiarizing yourself with its location after purchasing the car - otherwise you might panic when heavy rain or fog makes driving difficult. Remember to ensure the vehicle is started before pressing the button, which saves power and improves effectiveness. Overall, it's not hard to find as the icons are mostly concentrated in that area.
