Default Tilt mirror question (other thread was locked)

Since the other tilt mirror thread was locked, I have a question to ask in regards to that. The other thread was started by a member who had his mirrors point upwards when he put it in reverse. My dilemma is that mine doesn't tilt at all. Is there a model where the mirrors don't tilt or did I disable that feature somehow?

You're probably thinking, "Why don't this idiot look in his owners manual??" I bought the car used and somehow the previous owner misplaced it??

Anyway, I have a 2013 non Fsport, no luxury package, no nothing. Is there a button that disabled that feature or did my car just not come with the feature? Thanks in advance!

Make sure you have either the left or right (doesn't matter which) mirror adjustment button selected. You should see a green light. That's all it takes.

Not sure on your car, but on my ES 330 they only tilt when on the adjustment area the switch is on L or R
Hope this helps....

Just one of them.

To adjust them, put the car in reverse and make adjustments.

After I put the car in reverse, make adjustment, and I keep that green light lit, the mirrors will automatically go back in place when I put it in park/drive?

Side Mirrors Auto Tilt-Down in Reverse

Make sure to save the setting in your seat memory setting.

FYI you can download the car manuals from Lexus. Usually a Google search will get you there, otherwise going through their Lexus drivers resources page will get you there.
