Driver Controls Telescoping trailer tow mirrors (if equipped) The telescoping feature allows the mirror to extend approximately 3.5 inches (90 mm). This feature is especially useful to the driver when towing a trailer. Pull the mirrors inward carefully when driving through a narrow space. Fold-away mirrors (if equipped) Fold the side mirrors in carefully before driving through a narrow space, like an automatic car wash. Powerfold mirrors (if equipped) With powerfold mirrors, you can fold the side mirrors using the power mirror switch. 1. Rotate the switch to the center/neutral position. 2. Momentarily pull the switch rearward to auto fold in. 3. Momentarily pull the switch rearward again to fold back to design position. The powerfold mirrors may be moved inward/outward manually. However, if a mirror is moved manually, it will need to be reset. A mirror which has not been reset may appear to be loose. To reset: with the switch in the center position, momentarily pull the switch rearward to fold the mirrors in. An audible ЉclickЉ will be heard indicating re-synchronization. If the click is not heard, use the switch to fold the mirrors out, then in, until the click is heard. After that, the mirrors will operate normally until they are again moved manually. Note: Ten or more switch activations within 1 minute, or repeated folding/unfolding of the mirrors while holding the switch rearward during the full travel may cause the system to disable the fold/unfold function to protect motors from overheating. Should this occur, wait approximately 3 minutes for the system to reset and function to return to normal. 113 2008 F-150 (f12) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus)
