Where is the rearview mirror heating for BYD Qin Plus DMI?
2 Answers
In addition to the folding function, the BYD Qin Plus DMI rearview mirrors also feature electric adjustment for mirror angles and a heating function. The exterior rearview mirror heating button is located in the air conditioning system interface on the central control screen. Here are the relevant details: 1. Rearview mirror heating on the air conditioning control panel: Press the rearview mirror heating button on the air conditioning control panel to activate the exterior rearview mirror heating. The exterior rearview mirror heating will automatically turn off after approximately 12 minutes. 2. Location: The rearview mirrors are located on the exterior front of the vehicle and in front of the passenger compartment. They reflect the situation behind and to the sides of the vehicle, thereby expanding the driver's field of vision. Rearview mirrors are important safety components, and proper usage methods along with reasonable mirror angle adjustments can enhance the driver's safety and comfort.
I've been driving the BYD Qin PLUS DM-i for a while now, and the rearview mirror heating button is quite easy to find. It's located on the driver's side of the center console, near the air conditioning control panel. Usually, it's either a standalone button or integrated with the rear window defroster switch, marked with a small heating icon—that symbol with a wavy line and dots. Just press it to quickly remove moisture from the mirrors on rainy or foggy days—super practical. I find it really improves visibility when driving on wet roads. Just be careful not to leave it on for too long, as prolonged use might drain the battery, especially in hybrid models where you need to monitor the charge level. For maintenance, it's a good idea to regularly check if the wiring is loose to prevent malfunctions. Though it's a small feature, it's thoughtful and makes daily driving much easier.
