Exterior Mirrors: Introduction

Electric exterior mirrors are fitted as standard to the driver's and front-passenger door.

The exterior mirrors are adjusted centrally at the switch block in the driver's door. The switch block is connected to the LIN bus.

The following optional extras are available:

• Electrochromic interior mirror and electrochromic exterior mirrors (option 430)
• Driver's mirror memory in conjunction with seat memory (option 459)
• Lights package with courtesy lighting in the exterior mirrors (option 563)

The driver's mirror memory is controlled by the driver's seat module (SMFA).

• Up to 09/2005 

The exterior mirrors are actuated by the driver's door module (TMFA) and by the front-passenger door module (TMBF). The door modules communicate with each other on the byteflight.

• From 09/2005 

The door modules and the byteflight are discontinued. The body gateway module (KGM) actuates the exterior mirrors.

In the basic equipment specification, the exterior mirrors are electrically adjusted and heated.

With the special equipment listed above, the exterior mirrors are connected to the body gateway module (KGM) via the LIN bus.

The electrochromic interior mirror is likewise connected to the KGM.
