Heated mirrors question

Hi,

does anyone know more details about the heated mirrors for F20? I am curious since today was the first day the side mirrors were covered with water from rain during the night.

Do you need some extra option to have this or is it standard for all F20?

The information in the manual does not tell much, it just says "both mirrors are automatically heated when the engine is running".

On my previous car, an e92, if I turned on the heating for rear window/windshield the side mirrors got heated and the rain water vanished very fast. Even ice/snow melted during the winter in matter of minutes.

But on my F20, i tried turning on the rear window heating and the windshield heating but I didnt notice any effect on the side mirrors. They were covered with rain water blocking the view during my 15min drive to work. Maybe 15min is not enough time?

Salut
