Where is the rearview mirror heating button located on the Lynk & Co 03?

The rearview mirror heating button on the Lynk & Co 03 is located below the vehicle's central control screen, within the air conditioning control area. It is the last button among the four buttons in the air conditioning control panel, featuring a rectangle icon with three curved lines and arrows extending from the bottom to the top. The function can be used when the vehicle is powered on, and activating it simultaneously turns on the rear windshield heating. Rearview mirror heating is particularly useful during rainy or snowy weather. When activated, the heater behind the mirror quickly warms the mirror surface, gradually removing rainwater or fog, eliminating the need for frequent manual wiping by the driver and 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 button, where rotating the knob activates the heating. The other is located on the air conditioning control panel, where pressing the heating button turns it on. No manual angle adjustment is needed, as the driver's side has adjustment buttons. Principle of the rearview mirror heating function: After rotating the knob, 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. The heat is then distributed across the left and right rearview mirrors. Simultaneously, due to the rising temperature and evaporation, water droplets on the mirror surface gradually shrink, and fog slowly dissipates, effectively heating the mirror and removing frost. However, in heavy rain, its effectiveness may diminish and become less noticeable. Precautions for using the rearview mirror heating function: The principle of rearview mirror heating involves electric heating wires embedded in the mirror, which consume a significant amount of power. When using this function, ensure the vehicle is running. Avoid activating rearview mirror heating while the car is stationary to prevent draining the battery, which could lead to insufficient power for starting the vehicle. Other methods for defogging rearview mirrors include: Opening windows for air circulation: Slightly opening both side windows creates airflow between the interior and exterior, reducing the temperature difference and gradually eliminating fog. Adjusting the car's air conditioning to the appropriate setting can also help, as blowing warm air from the AC aids in defogging.

I recently started driving a Lynk & Co 03, and the rearview mirror heating button is located in the central air conditioning control area. Look for the icon with a square frame and wavy arrows—press it, and when the light turns on, it means the function is activated. This feature is super practical for rainy days when the mirrors are covered with water droplets; just press it and wait three to five minutes for them to dry. However, there are two things to note: first, it’s linked to the rear windshield defroster, so they share the same button; second, try to avoid using it in high summer temperatures, as prolonged heat exposure might damage the mirror coating. It’s most suitable for winter defrosting, and remember that turning on the heater can speed up defogging. The button is a bit far from the driver, so avoid fumbling for it while driving.

Last time I drove the Lynk & Co 03 in a heavy rain, the rearview mirror heating function was a lifesaver. The button is located below the air conditioning panel on the center console, with a rectangular icon featuring three curved arrows. It emits a 'click' feedback when pressed. In real-world testing, activating it during rain clears about 80% of water droplets within 5 minutes, much safer than wiping with a cloth. The system defaults to automatically shutting off after 15 minutes to prevent overheating. A useful tip: don't rush to press it immediately after starting the car in winter; wait until the engine coolant warms up for better effectiveness. A friend's car had this function fail due to aged wiring, so if the button doesn't respond, check for oxidized fuses and wire connectors.

The heated mirror switch of the Lynk & Co 03 is hidden in the air conditioning control area, with an icon resembling a small window with heat waves. During long-distance driving, it was discovered that the heated mirrors consume more electricity than expected when activated in rainy conditions. It is recommended to use this feature in conjunction with the engine start-stop function to balance power consumption. The effect is most noticeable when the temperature is below 15°C, but exceeding 30°C can actually worsen condensation. A mechanic informed me that this feature is connected to the rear window defroster circuit, and modifying the circuit can easily lead to overheating and tripping. When picking up a new car, remember to test the button—I once encountered a situation where the protective film wasn't removed upon delivery, causing poor contact.
