Ease of use and comfort
In versions fitted with “electrochrome” mirrors, a
system connected to a brightness sensor darkens
the mirror and reduces the nuisance to the driver
caused by low sun or headlamp beams from other
vehicles.
Folding
– Once the vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph
(10 km/h),
– When the engine is switched off.
It is set via the Driving / Vehicle touch
screen menu.
Automatic: lock the vehicle using the electronic
key.
Manual: with the ignition on, move control
A downwards.
If the mirrors are folded using control A,
they will not unfold when the vehicle is
unlocked.
Adjustment
Demisting/Defrosting
If the vehicle is so equipped, demisting/
defrosting of the heated door mirrors is
performed when the heated rear screen is
switched on.
For more information on Rear screen demisting/
defrosting, refer to the corresponding section.
Unfolding
Automatic: unlock the vehicle using the electronic
key.
Manual: with the ignition on, move control
A upwards.
The mirrors can be folded manually if necessary.
Rear view mirror
Equipped with an anti-dazzle system, which
darkens the mirror glass and reduces the
nuisance to the driver caused by the sun,
headlights of other vehicles, etc.
The automatic folding and unfolding of
the door mirrors with the remote control
can be set via the Driving / Vehicle touch
screen menu.
►ꢀ Turn control A to the right or to the left to
select the corresponding mirror.
►ꢀ Move the control in any of the four directions
to adjust.
►ꢀ Return the control to the central position.
Manual model
Fold the mirrors when putting your vehicle
through an automatic car wash.
Day/night position
As a safety measure, the mirrors should
be adjusted to reduce the blind spots.
The objects observed are, in reality, closer than
they appear. Take this into account in order
to correctly judge the distance of vehicles
approaching from behind.
Automatic tilting in reverse gear
Function which automatically tilts the mirrors
downwards to assist with parking manoeuvres in
reverse gear.
With the engine running, on engaging reverse
gear, the mirror glasses tilt downwards.
They return to their initial position:
►ꢀ Pull the lever to change to the anti-dazzle
"night” position.
– A few seconds after coming out of reverse gear.
