2 Answers
To activate the rearview mirror heating for the 2014 525 model, simply turn on the automatic rain sensor switch. Below are the relevant details: 1. Body dimensions: The exterior length, width, and height of the 2014 525 series are 5047*1860*1491 (millimeters), with a wheelbase of 2888 millimeters. The new 5 Series is 66 millimeters longer than the previous generation. 2. Powertrain configuration: The BMW 5 Series' powertrain has been further enhanced. The top-of-the-line 545i version is equipped with a V8 engine from the 7 Series, delivering a maximum power of 245 kW/333 hp (6100 rpm) and a maximum torque of 450 Newton meters (3600 rpm), with a top speed of 250 km/h and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of just 5.9 seconds.
I remember the rearview mirror heating function on the 2014 BMW 525 was quite cleverly integrated on the vehicle console—right at the rear window defogger button, marked with a square icon containing wavy lines, usually located slightly to the right of the center on the AC panel. Having driven this car for many years, I frequently used it during rain or snow. With just one press, not only would the rear window defog, but the mirrors would also heat up automatically. BMW's design is very intelligent; the system defaults to activating when temperatures drop below 18°C to ensure clear visibility and prevent distractions. If the button malfunctions, it might not be a defect but a fuse issue—I recommend regularly checking the dashboard for any warning lights. Safety comes first; never overlook this feature, especially during nighttime driving, as it effectively reduces accident risks.
