The VV6 rearview mirror heating function shares the same button with the rear window defroster. Simply turn on the air conditioning to the rear window defrost position to activate it. The button is marked with a square frame containing three upward-curving arrows. 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 frequent manual wiping 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 turn it on. The other is located on the air conditioning control panel—press the heating button to activate it. No manual angle adjustment is needed; the driver's side has a dedicated 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°C) within minutes, distributing heat across both left and right mirrors. As the temperature rises, water droplets on the mirror surface gradually shrink, and fog slowly dissipates, effectively clearing the mirror. However, in heavy rain, the effect may diminish and become less noticeable. Precautions for using the rearview mirror heating function: The heating function works via electric heating wires embedded in the rearview mirror, which consume significant power. Ensure the vehicle is running when using this feature to avoid draining the battery and preventing startup issues. Avoid activating it while the car is stationary. Other methods for defogging rearview mirrors include: Opening windows slightly to allow air circulation, reducing the temperature difference between inside and outside, which helps dissipate fog. Adjusting the car's air conditioning to blow warm air onto the mirrors for defogging.
