The Buick GL8 does not have a separate switch for heated mirrors. This function is integrated with the rear window defroster switch, which is located on the right side of the center console as a square button with three arrows. The heated mirrors share the same button with the rear window defogger - simply press it to activate mirror heating. Typically used during rainy or foggy weather, heating the mirrors helps improve their clarity. Additional information: 1. Mirror folding function: The mirror folding button is located on the door armrest. Pressing it will automatically retract the mirrors. Some models can be set to automatically retract the mirrors when the vehicle is locked. 2. Mirror adjustment positions: For proper central mirror adjustment - align the central mirror parallel to the horizon with the horizon positioned at the center (1/2 point) of the mirror surface. To ensure clear visibility of the road behind, the mirror surface can be slightly angled toward the driver.
