Rearview and door mirrors
Water and dirt-repellent coating
(option)
The door mirrors are treated with a coating
that maintains good rear-view vision despite
the rain.
The mirrors treated with the
water and dirt-repellent
coating are marked with a
small symbol. For information
on how the mirrors
should be maintained, see
page 173.
02
In certain weather conditions, the function of
the dirt-repellent coating is improved if the
door mirror defrosters are used, see
page 75 or 78.
Heat the door mirrors:
• If they are covered with ice or snow.
• In heavy rain and dirty road conditions.
• If they are misted.
