Mirrors folding-in?!

Hello to you all R class drivers,


For some reason since yesterday my mirrors no longer fold-in when I lock the car. I am not sure what I have done! Any ideas? the car locks and unlocks just fine, just the mirrors which of course were folding in until just yesterday, no longer fold-in!!!


Any ideas?

so it turns out mine was just the setting...it was back to default settings and under the default settings, the mirrors don't fold in. I changed it back to ON and they are working again.
