Where is the rearview mirror heating switch for the 2021 Yidong Plus?
1 Answers
The rearview mirror heating switch for the Yidong Plus is located on the air conditioning control panel. The rearview mirror heating and rear windshield heating share the same switch. When the vehicle's power is ON, pressing the button near the AC switch will automatically activate the rearview mirror heating. This feature is particularly useful in rainy or snowy weather. When activated, the heater behind the mirror quickly warms the surface, gradually removing rainwater or fog, eliminating the need for the driver to manually wipe the mirror and 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 rotate the knob to activate it. The other is located on the air conditioning control panel—pressing the heating button will activate it. No manual angle adjustment is required, as the driver's side has an adjustment button. Principle of the rearview mirror heating function: After pressing the button, the electric heater behind the rearview mirror glass rapidly heats up to a fixed temperature, usually between 35-60 degrees Celsius, within a few minutes. The heat is then distributed across the left and right rearview mirrors. As the temperature rises, water droplets on the mirror surface gradually shrink, and fog slowly dissipates, effectively removing frost and condensation. However, if the rain is particularly heavy, the effect may be diminished and less noticeable. Precautions for using the rearview mirror heating function: The principle of rearview mirror heating involves electric heating wires embedded in the mirror. These wires consume a significant amount of power. Therefore, when using this function, ensure the vehicle is running. Avoid activating the rearview mirror heating while the car is stationary to prevent draining the battery, which could hinder the vehicle's ability to start. Other methods for defogging rearview mirrors include: Opening windows slightly to create air convection between the inside and outside of the car, reducing the temperature difference and gradually eliminating fog. Adjusting the car's air conditioning to the appropriate setting to blow warm air for defogging.
