Where is the rearview mirror heating button located?
2 Answers
Taking the Verano as an example, the rearview mirror heating button of the Verano is located directly above the air conditioning fan speed knob. This switch is labeled "rear". After turning on the switch, it activates the heating for both the upper and lower rearview mirrors as well as the rear window defroster. The yellow light indicates that the heating is turned on, while the light turning off means the heating is deactivated. The heating function will automatically turn off after being activated for a period of time. The vehicle dimensions are 4723mm in length, 1802mm in width, and 1466mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. It is a 4-door, 5-seater sedan equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission and powered by a 1.0T L3 turbocharged engine.
I know the location of the rearview mirror heating button varies by car model. Back when I was driving earlier, many older models like Buick or Ford had the button on the center console with a standalone icon resembling small waves or heating lines. Now driving a Hyundai, I noticed the button has moved near the air conditioning controls, often combined with the rear window defogger into a single button—one press activates both functions. This feature is especially useful in rainy or foggy weather, quickly melting snow and clearing fog to maintain clear rearview mirrors and prevent blind-spot accidents. Remember to start the vehicle before pressing the button, and avoid prolonged use to prevent excessive battery drain. New drivers should take time to explore the dashboard—if unsure, check the vehicle manual. Making this a habit can be a lifesaver in emergencies. Safety first—familiarity with these details greatly enhances driving peace of mind.
