Arrow GLK Locking & Folding Mirrors

Just took delivery of a GLK ( Canadian model ) and I have a question about having the mirrors folding-up when the car is locked.
I don't remember it doing this when I first brought the car home but now whenever I lock-up the car, the mirrors fold-up. Put in the key and they open up again.
Is this a normal function or have I screwed up somewhere when I have been going thru all the menu/options etc?
How do I stop this?
I did a search with no luck.
Cheers.

Did You Read the Manual?

Have a look on pg. 85 / 86. I was just reading about it and it is there.
Sorry...still waiting for my vehicle and have already read the manual a few times to get acquainted with the new baby.

Agreed. There is an Enabled or Disabled option for the folding mirrors on door lock. As bobhammer notes, it's just a few clicks away drilling into the vehicle settings from the steering wheel controls.

I have this setting enabled btw...great feature.

I didn't know GLK had this option. I guess I should really read the manual

Cheers. Found the instructions ( also continued on page 124 ).
I guess in my fumbling with the menu and options, I must have set it to automatic fold!
All's right with the World once again.

Is this on all GLKs? My GLK seems to have been manufactured too early to get this. Bought it in March. The manual seems to indicate it may depend on manufacture date.

I'm not getting my GLK until later this week. Is it possible to do this (automatic) with only one mirror?

Thanks

As far as I can determine (as per the owner's manual), it's either both mirrors or none.

Cheers.

Along with the mirror fold feature when you lock your doors, the other cool feature is that you can also fold the mirrors at the touch of a button while still in the car or driving into a tight space...
