Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: How to adjust the external and internal rearview mirrors?

Adjusting the rearview mirrors is a very important action to perform before getting on the road. Their adjustment is essential for merging into traffic, making a turn, parking, overtaking, pulling over, and changing lanes. But how should they be adjusted? The interior rearview mirror should be positioned to have a full view of the rear window. The electric exterior rearview mirrors should be adjusted using the buttons on the steering wheel. They should be positioned in an open manner, without too much visibility of the car's tail, and in a central position.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
