Adjusting Exterior Mirrors
Adjust the exterior mirrors by touching Controls >
Mirrors. Press the left scroll button on the steering yoke
(or steering wheel) to choose whether you are adjusting
the
Left or Right mirror. Then use the left scroll button
as follows to adjust the selected mirror to its desired
position:
• To move the mirror up or down, roll the left scroll
button up or down.
•
To move the mirror inward or outward, press the left
scroll button to the left or right.
Mirror Auto Tilt automatically tilts mirrors downward
when backing up. To turn this feature on or
o, touch
Controls > Mirrors > Mirror Auto Tilt. To adjust the auto-
tilt position, make mirror adjustments with Model X
shifted into Reverse. When you shift out of Reverse,
mirrors tilt back to their normal (upward) position. But
now that you have adjusted them for backing up, they
automatically tilt to the selected downward position
whenever you shift into Reverse.
When certain environmental conditions are met, the rear
view mirror and exterior side mirrors dim automatically
(for example, in low light conditions or to reduce glare
when driving at night). To enable or disable this feature,
touch
Controls > Mirrors > Mirror Auto Dim.
NOTE: Both exterior mirrors have heaters that turn on
and o with the rear window defroster.
Folding Mirrors
To manually fold and unfold exterior mirrors (for
example, parking in a narrow garage, tight space, etc.),
touch Controls > Fold/Unfold Mirrors.
When you manually fold the mirrors, they remain folded
until your driving speed reaches 31 mph (50 km/h) (or
until you manually unfold them by touching Controls >
Unfold Mirrors).
NOTE: You cannot fold a mirror when driving over 31
mph (50 km/h).
To set the mirrors to fold automatically whenever you
exit and lock
Model X touch Controls > Mirrors > Mirror
Auto Fold. The mirrors unfold automatically when you
unlock Model X.
You can also set mirrors to fold automatically whenever
you arrive at a
specific location, which saves you from
having to manually fold them each time you arrive at a
frequented place. To set this up, stop at the location you
want to save (or drive at less than
3 mph (5 km/h)), and
fold the mirrors. Save Location appears briefly below
the Fold Mirrors control. Touch again if you no longer
want mirrors to automatically fold at the location.
NOTE: When you leave the saved location, mirrors
remain folded until your driving speed reaches 31 mph
(50 km/h), or until you touch Controls > Unfold Mirrors.
CAUTION:
Mirrors may not automatically fold if
you return to a saved location and are driving
faster than 3 mph/5 km/h.
NOTE: You can override the automatic folding/unfolding
of mirrors at any time (for example,
Model X has no
power) by pushing the mirror assembly away from you
to unfold, or pulling it toward you to fold.
NOTE: If you expect ice to accumulate when Model X is
parked, turn
o Mirror Auto Fold. Accumulation of ice
can prevent exterior side mirrors from folding or
unfolding. See Cold Weather Best Practices on page 96
for information on how to ensure your mirrors function
properly in cold weather.
You can integrate auto-folding mirrors with HomeLink
(see Smart Garage Connectivity on page 156). To enable,
go to
HomeLink > Auto-Fold Mirrors when Nearby.
Rear View Mirror
Adjust the rear view mirror manually. When in Drive or
Neutral, the rear view mirror automatically dims in low
lighting conditions based on the time of day (for
example, when driving at night).
Vanity Mirrors
See Sun Visors on page 34 for details on how to expose
and illuminate the vanity mirrors.
