Objects reflected in the mirror are closer than they appear. Do not estimate the distance of following traffic based on what you see in the mirrors, otherwise there is an increased accident risk.< Heated rear seats Operation similar to front seat heating; without temperature distribution, refer to page 47. 1 2 3 Adjusting Switching to the other mirror or to the automatic curb monitor Folding mirrors in and out* Active seat* Storing the mirror positions, refer to Seat, mirror and steering wheel memory on page 42. Manual adjustment You can also adjust the mirrors manually by pressing against the outer edges of their mirror glass. Folding mirrors in and out* The seat cushion is actively varied by alternately raising and lowering the right and left half of the seat cushion. This reduces muscular tension and fatigue to help prevent lower back pain. Press the button to switch on; the LED lights up. If you switch off the active seat, it can take up to 1 minute before the two halves of the seat cushion have returned to their initial position. Pressing button 3 allows you to fold the mirrors in and out again up to a speed of approx. 12 mph/20 km/h. This is advantageous, for example, in car washes, narrow streets or for bringing mirrors that have been manually folded in back into the correct position. Folded in mirrors fold out again at a speed of approx. 25 mph/40 km/h. Before going through a car wash, fold the mirrors in manually, or with button 3, otherwise they could be damaged, depending on the width of the car wash system.< 48 Online Edition for Part no. 01 41 0 012 501 - © 08/06 BMW AG
