Put the vehicle in reverse with foot on the brake then adjust the L, R minors to the position you want down to see the curb and rear wheels

The next time you put it in reverse bother mirrors will return to the dip position but you have to have the mirror switch in the L or R position to automatically dip. If you have it in the center position it will not

 

Many thanks for that Neil. I tried everything in 'settings' but nothing came up.
Best regards, Bernie

 

and there is more ...coincidentally, just went thru this on our GV60 this morning:
Ioniq 5 manual page 234, where the pics will help with the numbered items references...

Reverse Parking Aid

When the gear is shifted to the R
(Reverse) position, the side view lever(s)
will rotate downwards to aid with driving
in reverse.
The state of the side view mirror lever (1)
determines whether or not the mirrors
will move:

How it works
• Left/Right : When either the L (Left) or R
(Right) lever is selected, both side view
mirrors will move.
• Neutral : When neither switch is
selected, the side view mirrors will not
move.
The side view mirrors will automatically
revert to their original positions if any of
the following occur:
• The Start/Stop button is pressed to
either the OFF position or the ACC
position.
• The gear is shifted to any position
except R (Reverse).
• The side view mirror adjustment button
is not selected.

Reverse parking aid user settings mode

You may change the angle of the side
view mirror if it is difficult to see the rear
view with the basic downward mirror
angle provided when reversing.
When the vehicle is first delivered, the set
downward angle of the left and right side
view mirror are different to ensure driver
visibility.
1. Make sure the vehicle is stopped.
2. Depress the brake pedal and shift the
gear to R (Reverse). When L (Left) or R
(Right) button is selected, both side
view mirror angle will move downward
to the basic set position.
3. Move either L or R lever to select the
side view mirror you would like to
adjust. Then press “ƀ, Ɓ, Ƃ, ƃ” switch to
adjust the side view mirror to the
desired angle.
4. After adjusting the angle to save the
adjusted side view mirror angle, shift
the gear to another position other than
R (Reverse), or change the L and R lever
to the neutral position (L and R levers
are not selected).
5. Set the other side view mirror following
the above procedure 1 to 4.
Resetting reverse parking aid user settings
mode
To change the side view mirror angle back
to the basic angle, shift the gear to R
(Reverse), and adjust the mirror angle
higher than when the gear is in P (Park), N
(Neutral) and D (Drive).

NOTICE
When changing the angle of both side
view mirrors, it is recommended to
change the angle one side at a time
following the procedure 1 to 4

 

Thanks Surfside,
I'm guessing that what you are suggesting is 'if all else fails, read the damn manual!'
You are of course correct; I should have thought of that!
Many thanks for your comprehensive reply.
Best regards,
Bernie

 

Thanks again Surfside6.
At least you speak my language, even if the 'damn manual' doesn't!

 

Tried this on my 2025 I5 sel, no luck, it’s on page 5-34 of the manual. Followed it to the T

Are you having an issue with the rear occupant alert settings?

Or...page 534 of the 639, or chapter 8-4, relates to:

I’m

my physical manual from the glovebox

 

I don't remember where I got the manual I am using but likely from Hyundai...downloaded as a .pdf just this August 27...
This, just copied from owners.hyundaiusa.com shows the pdf chapter 5-34 page. ("5-34" at the bottom of the page)

https://owners.hyundaiusa.com/content/dam/hyundai/us/myhyundai/manuals/glovebox-manual/2025/ioniq-5/NE1a-2025-en_US-2C.pdf

I am shocked, shocked! to learn there is documentation bumbling going on here.
For my part I will try to make sure my Ioniq 5 references mention that I am using the pdf.

 

There is one manual for all trims. Not everything in the manual applies to all trims.

I can't find any mention of it in the brochure, but I'm pretty sure the automatic mirror dipping is only on the Limited and the XRT. It was not on my '24 SEL. (But a LOT of stuff was not on that car.)

 

There has to be a new manual for the '25's if only for the switch from CCS to NACS, doesn't there? I don't know about the trim/mirror association.
