2022-Polestar-2-Rearview-and-door-mirrors-fig-5
Door mirror controls

The joystick in the drivers’ door control panel is used to adjust the position of the door mirrors. The vehicle’s electrical system must be active.

  • Press the L button for the left door mirror or R for the right door mirror. The button will light up.
  • Adjust the position using the joystick located between the buttons.
  • Press the L or R button again. The light in the button will go out.

Automatically folding door mirrors: The door mirrors can be automatically folded when driving or parking in tight spaces.

  • Press the L and R buttons at the same time.
  • Release the buttons after about 1 second. The mirrors will automatically stop when they are completely folded in.

Open the mirrors by pressing L and R at the same time. The mirrors will automatically stop when they reach the last-used setting.

Restoring to original position: A mirror that has been moved out of position manually (e.g. hit or bumped into) must be electrically returned to its original position for automatic folding to function properly.

  • Fold in the mirrors by pressing the L and R buttons at the same time.
  • Open them again by pressing the L and R buttons at the same time.
  • Repeat the above procedure as needed.

The mirrors return to their original positions.

Tilting when parking: The door mirrors can be tilted down to help give the driver a better view along the sides of the vehicle, e.g. of the curb when parking.

  • Select reverse gear and press the L or R mirror button.

Please note that the button may need to be pressed twice depending on settings. When the door mirror is tilted down, the light in the button will flash. When reverse gear is disengaged, the door mirrors automatically return to their original positions.

Automatically tilting when parking: With this setting, the door mirrors will automatically tilt down when reverse gear is engaged. The folded position is preset and cannot be adjusted.

  • Tap 2022-Polestar-2-Rearview-and-door-mirrors-fig-4 in the center display.
  • Tap More.
  • Tap Mirrors and select the desired setting.

To immediately return the door mirrors to their original position, press the L or R button twice.

Automatic folding when the vehicle is locked: The door mirrors fold in/out automatically when the vehicle is locked/unlocked using the key.

NOTE

If you manually fold in the mirrors using the L and R buttons and then lock the vehicle, they will not fold out automatically when you unlock the vehicle, even if this preference has been set. Folding must then be done manually or while driving once the vehicle has reached a certain speed.

Adjusting the rearview mirror dimming function

Bright light from behind is automatically* dimmed by the rearview mirror and door mirrors when it is dark outside or in limited light conditions, such as when driving in tunnels. In the center display, you can set whether auto-dim should be active or not active while driving.

Dimming is adjusted automatically, via light sensors in the rearview mirror, for both the rearview mirror and door mirrors.

  • Tap 2022-Polestar-2-Rearview-and-door-mirrors-fig-4 in the center display.
  • Tap More.
  • Tap Mirrors and select the desired setting.
NOTE

If the sensors are obstructed by e.g. a parking permit, transponder, sunshade or objects on the seats or parcel shelf in a way that prevents light from reaching the sensors, the auto-dim function in the rearview and door mirrors will be reduced.

Automatically activating and deactivating the heated rear window and door mirrors

The heated rear window and door mirrors are used to quickly remove condensation and ice from the glass.

Automatic start of heated rear window and door mirrors can be set to be activated/deactivated when the driver gets into the vehicle. With automatic start activated, heating will be turned on when there is a risk of ice or condensation on the windows or mirrors. Heating is automatically switched off when the window or door mirror is sufficiently warm and the condensation or ice is gone.

  • Open Climate view in the center display by swiping upwards in Home view.
  • Tap Settings in the Climate view.
  • Select desired setting under Auto rear defroster to activate/deactivate automatic rear window and power door mirror heating.

Door mirrors

The power door mirrors have a wide-angle field in the outer edge of the mirrors to provide better visibility of objects in the vehicle’s blind spot.

Storing seat and door mirror positions

The memory buttons can be used to store positions for power seats and door mirrors.
