Heated mirrors???

Ok guys, I picked up my new truck this week and am trying to learn everything about it. My current issues is my heated mirrors. My mirrors have the little icon in the corner for heated mirrors, when I looked in the manual to find the button to turn them on it showes the rear window defrost and the mirrors on the same button with both icons. My truck only has the button with the rear window icon on it. Do I have the wrong mirrors or the wrong button? Truck is a 2012 CC lariat with the Ultimate package.

Thanks Guys

Pete

The mirrors come on with the defrost button. There isn't a separate button.

I was hoping someone would say that. Then why does ford show both icons in the manual? (rhetorical question)

Thanks

For the people that do not have the rear defrost there is a different icon for just the mirrors. If you have the rear defrost you have the defrost icon and the mirrors turn on with the rear defrost.

Hope that makes sense.

One is to defrost front window using the air. The other button is the electric defrost button. Top button for windows, bottom for electric/mirrors. Do you have this?

My top button is the same but my lower button is a square with the heat waves and a letter "R" next to it. For the rear window defrost.

Thanks
Pete

I had the power sliding rear window and did not have rear window defrost. Interesting.
