Lincoln Nautilus: Rear View Mirrors / Power Mirrors Synchronization. General Procedures
Synchronization
NOTE:
The power folding mirrors may need to be synchronized any
time the mirrors are folded or unfolded without using the folding
switch, or if a new power folding mirror is installed.
NOTE:
The power telescoping mirrors may need to be synchronized
any time the mirrors are extended or retracted without using the
telescoping switch, or if a new power telescoping mirror is installed.
NOTE:
If the power folding or power telescoping mirrors are
continuously electronically moved, the power lockout feature disables
the system for approximately 3-10 minutes to prevent damage to the power
fold or power telescope motors. After 3-10 minutes have elapsed, normal
operation resumes.
NOTE:
The truck power folding mirror procedure is shown in the
videos; other vehicles and power telescoping mirror procedure are
similar.

Fold or retract both mirrors by hand.
-
Using the power folding/power telescoping mirror switch, operate the mirrors until an audible click is heard.
