The rearview mirror heating for the Model 3 is located at the icon to the right of the air conditioning master switch. Generally, the rearview mirror heating and rear windshield defogging functions are integrated into a single button. The Tesla Model 3's exterior design features a fully enclosed design, with added gaps at the front hood for some heat dissipation capability. Below is related information about the Model 3's rearview mirrors: Content 1: For the convenience of the driver and to prevent traffic safety accidents and ensure personal safety, vehicles must be equipped with rearview mirrors, and all rearview mirrors must be adjustable. Content 2: Some models have a knob on the driver's side door that adjusts the angles of the left and right rearview mirrors. Turning it to the left adjusts the left mirror, and turning it to the right adjusts the right mirror. When the knob is in the middle position, it activates the rearview mirror heating function, which automatically turns on. Content 3: During rainy or snowy weather, when the rearview mirror heating switch is pressed, the indicator light on the button will illuminate. The heating element will quickly warm up to a set temperature within a few minutes, causing fog to gradually disappear, thereby heating the mirror and removing fog and frost.

As a frequent driver of a domestic Model 3, I've found the rearview mirror heating crucial during rainy or snowy weather. It's located in the air conditioning control area on the central touchscreen inside the car. Simply tap the air conditioning icon on the screen, then find the small heating symbol button in the menu and press it lightly to activate the heating function. The design is simple and intuitive, eliminating the hassle of physical buttons, and the heating effect is fast—the embedded heating wires in the mirror quickly clear fog and frost. I recommend checking the screen settings every time before driving, especially in cold or humid conditions, to turn it on in advance, which significantly enhances driving safety. A tip: Model 3's heating is also linked to the overall vehicle system, such as automatically activating when low temperatures are detected, making it highly efficient. Compared to other models, the touch controls are smooth and easy for beginners to use. Don’t forget to regularly check the rearview mirror to avoid aging issues. Overall, it’s easy to locate, highly practical, and reduces distractions while driving.
