Where to Set BMW Mirror Auto-Folding?
2 Answers
Press the left arrow button on the multifunction steering wheel repeatedly to enter the setting mode. Release the button when the setup option appears on the instrument cluster menu. After entering the setup interface by clicking the right steering wheel button, select "Settings", then choose the "Mirrors" tab and enable the "Auto-Folding" option.
I recently encountered this issue while personalizing my car settings, and setting the auto-folding mirrors is actually quite straightforward. After starting the car, go to the central control screen and find the menu button, then navigate to the settings section and select vehicle settings or comfort features. There, you’ll find the mirror options—just toggle the auto-folding switch. It works intelligently: the mirrors fold automatically when you lock the car and unfold when you start it. It’s best to set this while the car is parked to avoid distracting you while driving. This feature is especially handy for BMWs in city parking, particularly in narrow alleys to prevent mirror scrapes. If the screen icons seem confusing, check the owner’s manual for detailed instructions in the relevant chapter. If all else fails, visit the dealership and let them assist—it’s really simple. Make it a habit to regularly check these settings to ensure everything works as intended.
