Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W205) 2015 - 2021 Owners Manual / Light and visibility / Mirrors / Operating the outside mirrors

WARNING Risk of injury from adjusting the vehicle settings while the vehicle is in motion

You could lose control of the vehicle in the following situations:

if you adjust the driver's seat, the head restraint, the steering wheel or the mirror while the vehicle is in motion

if you fasten your seat belt while the vehicle is in motion

Before starting the engine: adjust the driver's seat, the head restraint, the steering wheel or the mirror and fasten your seat belt.

WARNING Risk of accident due to misjudgment of distances when using the passenger mirror

The outside mirror on the front-passenger side reflects objects on a smaller scale. The objects in view are in fact closer than they appear.

As a result, you may misjudge the distance between you and the road user driving behind you, for example, when changing lanes.

Therefore, always look over your shoulder in order to ensure that you are aware of the actual distance between you and the road users driving behind you.
