Can anyone confirm if they have heated exterior door mirrors on their Inscription, I thought they were heated but mine don't seem to be working.

Hi

I was wondering the same thing after a cold morning. Just found a thing in the manual about the mirrors heating is strangely connected with the rear defrost. :roll:

Oh just forgot.
you can under settings-climate set the rear defrost/mirror heat to activate when you start the car.

Thanks for replies,I know where to look now.

My last four VW and my Audi Q3 were all activated by the mirror controls so you could have it set to heat the mirror as you turned on ignition

Come to think of it, I think my Mk IV Golf mirrors were just permanently on, but maybe that's because the auto dimming was always on? The Mk VIs I drove were all on the rear window switch, but they didn't have auto dimming mirrors.
