How to adjust the external rearview mirrors of the car

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Side mirror

Today we will explain how to adjust the rearview mirrors of the car. The adjustment of the mirrors can be done manually or electronically depending on the model of the vehicle. In the case of our tutorial method, we will adjust the rearview mirrors electronically. So, we turn on the vehicle's instrument panel and rotate the joystick on the control panel to the letter L to adjust the left mirror, and if we need to adjust the right mirror, we should rotate the joystick to the letter R. To adjust the height and position of the mirror in order to have an optimal view both when driving on the road and when parking, we should move the joystick, as shown in the video. The correct position of the mirror is one in which the view should cover the rear end of the vehicle and the road.
