hand it shall be returned to driving posi-
tion by hand. If the mirror is folded elec-
trically it can be returned to driving posi-
tion electrically.

Mirrors are fitted with resistors that will
activate when turning the heated rear win-
dow on (by pressing button
().
IMPORTANT This function is timed and
it will turn off automatically a few minutes
later. The reflecting surface of the
lower part of the mirror is
parabolic to increase the range. Con-
sequently, the dimension of the re-
flected image is reduced, giving the
impression that the object is more dis-
tant than it is in fact.
WARNING

The mirrors can only be adjusted electri-
cally when the key is at MAR. To adjust
mirrors, turn knob Bto one of the fol-
lowing four positions:
ÿ1 left mirror, ⁄2 right mirror, ¤3 left

Turn knob D to

This function is particularly useful when
the outside air is heavily polluted (in a traf-
fic jam, tunnel etc.). However, it is better
not to use it for long periods, especially
if there several people in the vehicle.IMPORTANT The inside air recirculation
system makes it possible to reach the re-
quired “heating” or “cooling” conditions
faster.
Do not use the air recirculation function
on rainy/cold days as it would consider-
ably increase the possibility of the win-
dows misting inside.
