194001442 - E3032 REAR VIEW MIRROR ADJUSTMENT - DESCRIPTION

The exterior rear view mirrors are electrically adjusted in two directions (horizontally and vertically) using a joystick; the left or right mirror is chosen using a selector.The driver''s front door control unit acquires the adjustment commands and transmits them, via the CAN, to the passenger side and to the driving position control unit. There are three buttons on the driver''s front seat controls used for the automatic recall of the positions memorized.    See E3076 ELECTRICALLY-ADJUSTABLE SEATSThis memory funcion is managed by the driving position control unit, which downloads seat positions directly and also door mirror positions via the CAN network. The control unit stores all the above positions when one of the three buttons is held down for at least three seconds.A buzzer inside the instrument panel goes off when the positions have been stored.The memory recall function is inhibited when the car is travelling faster than 10 km/h, via a signal sent via the CAN network from the Body Computer to the driving position control unit.If command come simultaneously from the joystick and the steering control unit, the former have priority, thereby cancelling the return of the exterior rear view mirrors to the position memorized.The rear view mirrors contain 3 motors: one for movement on the horizontal axis, one for movement on the vertical axis and one used for folding back the actual mirror. The folding function is also managed by the control unit at the driver''s door which acquires the command from a button near the joystick.The folding always applies to both mirrors, irrespective of the current position of the selector. The driving position control unit acquires the vehicle speed signal and if it exceeds 10Km/h it inhibits the request to recall a position memorized. If the recall is made when the vehicle speed is above 10 Km/h, the movement is not interrupted but is brought to a conclusion.When reverse gear is engaged and the side lights are on, thanks to the presence of a rain and dusk sensor, the electro-chromic interior rear view mirror is immediately darkened, like the exterior rear view mirrors, allowing improved visibility. All the functions described are enabled with the key inserted and turned to the ON position in the ignition device.
