Adjusting Exterior Mirrors
Adjust the exterior mirrors by touching Controls > Mirrors.
Press the left scroll button on the
steering wheel to choose
whether you are adjusting the
Left or Right mirror. Then use
the left scroll button as follows to adjust the selected mirror
to its desired position:
• To move the mirror up or down, roll the left scroll button
up or down.
• To move the mirror inward or outward, press the left scroll
button to the left or right.
Both exterior mirrors can tilt downward when the vehicle is
shifted into Reverse. To turn this feature on or off, touch
Controls > Mirrors > Mirror Auto Tilt. To adjust the auto-tilt
position, touch Adjust Tilted Position and make mirror
adjustments as needed. After adjusting the tilted position
and touching
Save, mirrors will automatically tilt to the
configured position whenever you shift into Reverse. When
you shift out of Reverse, mirrors tilt back to their normal
(upward) position. Mirror Auto Tilt must be enabled to adjust
tilted position.
To reduce glare when driving at night, the rear view mirror
and exterior side mirrors dim automatically. To enable or
disable this feature, touch
Controls > Mirrors > Mirror Auto
Dim.
Availability of Mirror Auto Dim depends on configuration,
market region, and date of manufacture.
NOTE: Both exterior mirrors have heaters that turn on and off
with the rear window defroster.
Folding Mirrors
To manually fold and unfold exterior mirrors (for example,
parking in a narrow garage, tight space, etc.), touch Controls
> Fold/Unfold Mirrors. You can also fold and unfold mirrors
using the multifunction capabilities on your left scroll button
(see
Left Scroll Wheel Customization on page 70).
When you manually fold the mirrors, they remain folded until
your driving speed reaches 50 km/h (or until you manually
unfold them by touching Controls > Unfold Mirrors).
NOTE: You cannot fold a mirror when driving over 50 km/h.
To set the mirrors to fold automatically whenever you exit and
lock
Model Y touch Controls > Mirrors > Mirror Auto Fold.
The mirrors unfold automatically when you unlock
Model Y.
You can also set mirrors to fold automatically whenever you
arrive at a specific location, which saves you from having to
manually fold them each time you arrive at a frequented
place. To set up, stop at the location you want to save (or
drive at less than
6 km/h), and fold the mirrors. Touch Save
Location when it appears briefly on the Fold Mirrors control.
If you no longer want mirrors to automatically fold, touch
Controls > Unfold Mirrors when they fold at the saved
location and then touch Remove Location.
When you leave the saved location, mirrors unfold when your
driving speed reaches 6 km/h, or when you touch Controls >
Unfold Mirrors.
NOTE: Mirrors can automatically fold if you return to a saved
location and are driving below 50 km/h.
NOTE: You can override the automatic folding/unfolding of
mirrors at any time (for example,
Model Y has no power) by
pushing the mirror assembly away from you to unfold, or
pulling it toward you to fold.
NOTE: If you expect ice to accumulate when Model Y is
parked, turn off Mirror Auto Fold. Accumulation of ice can
prevent exterior side mirrors from folding or unfolding. See
Cold Weather Best Practices on page 140 for information on
how to ensure your mirrors function properly in cold weather.
You can integrate auto-folding mirrors with HomeLink (see
Smart Garage on page 63). To enable, go to HomeLink >
Auto-Fold Mirrors when Nearby.
Interior Mirrors
Rear View Mirror
Adjust the rear view mirror manually. When in Drive or
Neutral, the rear view mirror automatically dims in low
lighting conditions based on the time of day (for example,
when driving at night).
Vanity Mirrors
To expose and illuminate the vanity mirror, fold the sun visor
downwards, then use the tab to lower the mirror cover. After
closing the mirror cover, the light turns off.
