Folding Mirrors Again

My 2014yr V6 and new to me does not appear to have the power fold/unfold function with the exterior mirrors. The adjustment function with the buttons and joystick control works fine.
Does any know if you can individually physically fold in the mirrors from the outside without doing any damage to their mechanism?
I'm amazed that Jaguar were making vehicles without power folding mirrors!
 
Press both mitrror adjust buttons together.
Automatic folding mirrors may be a nice convenience but there are circumstances where they're a menace. In very cold weather they can freeze folded and they take a lot fo effort to get them to unfold.
 
I've tried several times to press both buttons together but all that happens is one of the buttons lights up!
Did all F-Types have power folding mirrors as standard?
 
I'm still amazed that Jaguar made cars without power folding mirrors!
It's not a major problem that it hasn't got them. With a new to me car it's just getting to know what you've got and haven't got.
Does anyone know if you can manually fold them in without breaking anything?

Yes, all fold in without damage so that if you/someone passes too close to or someone walks into them, etc. they fold in not break or damage the car
That doesn't mean on powered ones I do it all the time, but manual is fine.

Thanks for that.
I thought that should be the case. I'll have a go tomorrow.
