Where is the Volvo rearview mirror heating button located?
2 Answers
Volvo rearview mirror heating button is located on the air conditioning control panel, with three curved upward arrows combined with a rectangle as the icon for the rearview mirror heating button. Additional information is as follows: 1. Working principle: The working principle of the heated rearview mirror is very simple, and the cost is not very high. It involves installing an electric heating element (heating film) inside the mirror of both side rearview mirrors. In rainy or snowy weather, when the driver turns on the rearview mirror heating function, the heating element will quickly heat up to a fixed temperature within a few minutes, usually between 35-60 degrees Celsius, thereby heating the mirror to remove fog and frost, providing great convenience for the driver. 2. Introduction: The rearview mirror heating function refers to when the car is driving in rain, snow, fog, or other weather conditions, the exterior rearview mirrors can be heated through the electric heating wires embedded behind the mirror, ensuring the surface of the mirror remains clear.
I recall that in my Volvo, the rearview mirror heating button is typically designed next to the mirror adjustment knob on the driver's door control panel. Simply rotate it to the heating icon position. The exact location varies by model: older S60 or XC90 models may have a direct heating symbol button, while newer models like the XC40 integrate it into the climate menu on the central display, requiring manual selection. The function activates automatically or manually in cold weather, melting frost or evaporating water droplets within minutes after activation, especially enhancing visibility safety in rainy or foggy conditions. If you can't find the button, consulting the owner's manual or visiting a 4S store is the quickest solution. Additionally, keeping the mirrors clean ensures efficient heating and prevents dirt buildup from affecting performance.
