Where is the rearview mirror heating function located on the Tharu?

The Tharu's rearview mirror heating control switch is integrated with the side mirror adjustment function switch. Here is relevant information about the rearview mirror heating: 1. Principle: The heating principle for exterior rearview mirrors is quite simple and cost-effective. It works by embedding heating wires behind the mirror surface to ensure clarity. When activated, the heater quickly warms the mirror surface, gradually removing rainwater or fog, eliminating the need for frequent manual wiping by the driver and significantly reducing driving risks. 2. Limitations: During actual use, especially in rainy conditions, the exterior rearview mirror heating only provides partial effectiveness. This is because rainwater on the window glass can still obstruct the driver's view.
Haha, as a young person who frequently commutes by car, I find the rearview mirror heating function particularly useful when driving the T-Cross. It's located on the mirror adjustment knob on the driver's side door. There's a marking with waves or a heating symbol on the knob, and turning it to that position activates the heating. This feature is incredibly handy during the rainy season or when frost forms in winter. The mirror heats up quickly, evaporating water droplets and instantly clearing the view, helping to avoid obstacles. Once, I used it on the highway during a rainy, foggy day, and it made driving much safer and easier. New car owners might not be familiar with it at first, so I recommend turning the knob and patiently waiting a minute or two for the effect to gradually appear. If you can't find the icon, just check the manual or consult a 4S store. Remember to have technicians inspect this component during regular maintenance to prevent aging or malfunction.
