Folding the exterior mirrors in or out automatically
When the "Automatic mirror folding" function
is activated in COMAND:
• the exterior mirrors fold in automatically as
soon as you lock the vehicle from the
outside.
• the exterior mirrors fold out again
automatically as soon as you unlock the
vehicle and then open the driver's or frontpassenger
door.
The mirrors do not fold out if they have
been folded in manually.
