Where is the rearview mirror heating switch for Chery Tiggo 8?
1 Answers
The button for the rearview mirror heating in the Tiggo 8 is the same as the rear windshield heating button, which is the button next to the front windshield on the physical air conditioning controls with a small rearview mirror symbol. Rearview mirror heating is particularly useful during rainy or snowy weather. When activated, the heater behind the mirror quickly warms the surface, gradually removing rain or fog from the mirror, eliminating the need for the driver to frequently wipe the mirror manually, 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—simply rotating the knob will turn it on. The other is located on the air conditioning control panel—pressing the heating button will activate it. There is no need to manually adjust the angle, as there is an adjustment button on the driver's side. Principle of the rearview mirror heating function: After rotating the button, the electric heater behind the rearview mirror glass will quickly heat up to a fixed temperature within a few minutes, typically between 35-60 degrees Celsius. The heat will dissipate from the left and right rearview mirrors. Simultaneously, as the temperature rises and evaporates, water droplets on the mirror surface will become smaller, and fog will gradually disappear, thereby heating the mirror and removing frost. If the rain is particularly heavy, the effect may diminish and become less noticeable. Precautions for using the rearview mirror heating function: The principle of rearview mirror heating involves adding electric heating wires to the rearview mirror. These wires consume a significant amount of power. When using the rearview mirror heating function, ensure the car is in an active state. Avoid activating the function while the car is stationary to prevent draining the car battery, which could leave insufficient power to start the vehicle. Other methods for defogging rearview mirrors include: Opening windows for airflow: Crack open the side windows slightly to allow air convection between the inside and outside of the car. This reduces the temperature difference, causing the fog to gradually disappear. Adjusting the car's air conditioning to the appropriate setting can also help defog by blowing warm air.
