Randombloke Posted August 7, 2010 Posted August 7, 2010 Handbook says the folding action of the wing mirrors can be set to fold or not to fold by dealers. Anyone knows how to set it? Depends on which model. On the Mk1 C5 the mirrors can be told to fold on locking and unfold on ignition on by pressing and holding the fold control on the driver's door for more than 5 seconds. Can't remember if you do it with the ignition off or on. I changed mine to fold after I got it, and turned on the "auto lights". Warning - if you set the mirrors to fold and your battery is tired, you must wait until the mirrors have folded all the way out before you start the engine. If you don't, the spike from the starting up will confuse the mirror and it will fold forward 90 degrees past the right position. DAMHIKIJD, ok? Quote

Do you know which of the buttons is the 'fold control' ? Quote
seefive Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Thanks. Mine is 2005, facelifted version, Executive. Do you know which of the buttons is the 'fold control' ? It's the button that slides left and right to select which mirror you want to adjust. Get it in the centre position and pull it towards the back of the car to fold/unfold Quote
