Question How to change side mirror position when reversed?

Sorry I just bought my car and don't have the owners manual. How do I change the position of my side mirrors so when I reverse its the same position that I want?

Yeah, I don't think you can set a "down position". Whichever mirror you have selected will tilt down a fixed amount from whatever you set the normal "up" position to be, and then will swivel back when you take it out of reverse.

I tend to keep my mirrors pretty tight and low, and I find that the lowered position works fine for me.

lol ive had the car for 6 months now and just yesterday i figured out that if you leave the switch in the middle either of the mirrors go down....it was getting kinda annoying backin out of my driveway....its awesome when i have to parallel park tho.

Funny how you're trying to get yours to stop tilting down and I can't get my to work consistently at all. Everytime I take it to the dealer it works, as soon as I leave it stops working
