Work may only be carried out at a room/object temperature of
18 ... 28
°
C.
If this cannot be guaranteed (cold/hot countries), it is
necessary to equalize the temperature of the windscreen,
mirror foot and rearview mirror (e.g. car left to stand indoors or
in the shade for at least 30 minutes).
Version with remote control for central locking:
If necessary, disconnect negative lead from battery.
Version with compass:
Check compass function if replacing or after disconnecting interior
mirror plug connection or battery.
If necessary, calibrate compass in interior rearview mirror.
Important!
To avoid breaking windscreen:
Snap out (press) rearview mirror only in direction of travel
towards windscreen.
Do not under any circumstances twist the mirror foot when
removing.
Twisting the mirror off the mirror mount will damage the rear
catch.
If the rear catch is damaged, the mirror will be loose when
installed and must be replaced.

Do not exert any pressure on mirror foot when removing end
caps (1).
Press end caps (1) towards mirror housing (2); this releases clip
connection of both caps (1).
In order not to create any tension at the mirror foot, simultaneously
apply counterpressure to the mirror housing when removing the
end caps.
