Synchronizing exterior rear view
mirrors

The power folding rear view mirrors may
have to be synchronized after the vehicle
battery has been disconnected or dis-
charged. If the exterior rear view mirrors
do not fold properly upon locking or un-
locking the vehicle although the corre-
sponding function in the control system is
activated (

page 185), do the following:

̈

Fold each exterior rear view mirror in
completely (

page 212).

̈

Fold each exterior rear view mirror out
completely (

page 212).

When the exterior rear view mirrors fold
properly upon locking the vehicle, the exte-
rior mirrors are synchronized. Otherwise
repeat the above steps.
