Reverse and Tilting Mirrors

[rickfen]

According to the manual, the L & R buttons for adjusting the mirrors should be in the neutral position to stop the mirrors from tilting (I don't want them to tilt down when I put the car in reverse).
I can't find "neutral" on the switch. When I press left, there is a dash pointing to the left and when I press right there's a dash pointing to the right. I can't seem to choose a "middle or neutral" position.
Anyone else run into this.

thanks

I'm not sure atm, but I think if you press the lit button again it will deactivate it , and put you in neutral.

Exactly right, thanks. I think the 2010 was more of a "rocker" type switch (or I'm old and my memory fails me)

It may be able to be disabled in the settings menu on the driver information. i really like the tilt down.

I turned mine off as well. It is as described above. I like to see straight back, not look at the ground. I do like the "Top View" on the back-up camera when parting up against those parking concrete stops.

I wish it also had a front camera with a top view for the same reason!

I agree. Something we should bring up to them for future changes.

Is this feature available on all trims of the 2015? I can't get mine to tilt down at all when reversing.

Page 3-38 of the owners manual describes it better than I can.

From the manual:

Reverse parking aid function:

When you move the shift lever to the
R (Reverse) position, the outside
rearview mirror(s) will rotate downwards
to aid with driving in reverse.
The position of the outside rearview
mirror switch (1) determines whether
or not the mirrors will move:

Left/Right : When either the L (Left) or
R (Right) switch is selected,
both outside rearview
mirrors will move.

Neutral :When neither switch is selected,
the outside rearview mirrors
will not move.

The outside rearview mirrors will
automatically revert to their original
positions if any of the following occur:

• The Engine Start/Stop button is
pressed to either the OFF position
or the ACC position.

• The shift lever is moved to any
position except R (Reverse).

• The remote control outside rearview
mirror switch is not selected.

Thanks for the post Strangely, I've tried this in both L and R positions and I've never had my mirrors rotate downwards. Hence I wondered if this is trim specific (or even region specific).
