2000 MERCEDES-BENZ C-Class control arm

Garage Door Opener


1. Integrated remote control transmitter
2. Portable remote control transmitter
Warning !
When programming a garage door opener, the door moves up or down. When programming or operating
the remote control make sure there is no possibility of anyone being harmed by the moving door.

The built-in remote control is capable of operating up to three separately controlled objects.
Notes:
Certain types of garage door openers are incompatible with the integrated opener. If you should experience
difficulties
with programming the transmitter, contact your authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer or call Mercedes-Benz Customer
Assistance Center (in the U.S.A. only) at 1-800-FOR-MERCedes. For operation in the USA only:
This devise complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation. Any unauthorized modification to this device could void
the user's
authority to operate the equipment.
Programming or reprogramming the integrated remote control:
1. Turn electronic key in steering lock to position 1 or 2.
2. Press and hold one button of the integrated remote control located on the sun visor until its control light begins to
flash at a
rate of about once a second. Continue holding down the button.
Note:
The light blinks immediately if the integrated remote control is being programmed
for the first time, or if its memory was previously erased. If you
are reprogramming a previously used button, the light will flash after
about 20 seconds.
3. Aim portable remote control transmitter at the integrated remote control transmitter to be programmed. While still
holding down the button on the transmitter on the inside rear view mirror, press down the button on you r portable
remote control transmitter, until the integrated remote control light starts to flash rapidly. This means that the
integrated transmitter has accepted the frequency and code of the portable transmitter.
4. If you wish, repeat the procedure for each remaining button.


Note:
If the garage door opener is equipped with the "rolling code feature", it needs to be trained to accept the remote
control
command. To do so, the assistance of a second person is required.
1. Locate training button (part of the opener unit in the garage).
2. Press and hold training button until training light next to the button begins to flash (in two seconds).
3. Now have the second person press and hold the previously programmed button on the integrated remote control
transmitter until the training light on the garage door opener is lit continuously (in two seconds).
4. Release and press the programmed button on the integrated remote control transmitter once again to turn off
the training light in the garage door opener.
5. Confirm the garage door operation by pressing the programmed button on the integrated remote control
transmitter.

Important !
Coasting the vehicle, or driving for any other reason with selector lever in "N" can result in transmission damage
that is not covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.


D - The transmission automatically upshifts through 5th gear. Position "D" provides optimum driving characteristics
under all normal operating conditions.
4 - Upshift through 4th gear only.
Suitable for performance driving. To shift from position "D" to "4", push selector lever to the left.
3 - Upshift through 3rd gear only.
Suitable for moderately steep hill s. Since the transmission does not shift hi gher than 3rd gear, this gear selection
will allow use of the engine's braking power downhill.
2 - Upshift through 2nd gear only.
For driving in mountainous regions or under extreme operating conditions. This gear selection will allow use of the
engine's braking power when descending steep grades.
1 - In this position, the engine's braking effect is utilized by shifting into 1st gear.
Use this position while descending very steep or l engthy downgrades and only at speeds below 40 mph (60
km/h).


Important !
With selector lever in position "D", "4" or "3", upshifting from 1st to 2nd to 3rd gear is delayed depending on vehicle
speed and engine temperature. This allows the catalytic converter to heat up more quickly to operating temperatures.
During the brief warm-up period this delayed upshift and increased engine noise might be perceived as a malfunction.
However, neither the engine nor transmission are negatively affected by this mode of operation.
The delayed upshift is effective with vehicle speeds below 31 mph (50 km/h) at partial throttle and engine
temperatures below 95°F (35°C). To avoid overrevving the engi ne when the selector lever is moved to a lower driving
range, the transmission will not shift to a lower gear, if the engine's speed limit would be exceeded. In this case there
will be no downshift, even when the vehicle speed reaches t he engine's speed limit of that gear, e.g. by applying the
service brakes. Continue driving in the usual manner. The transmission will then shift down automatically.
To prevent the engine from laboring at low RPM when driv ing uphill gradients or with your vehicle heavily loaded, the
automatic transmission will downshift when necessary to maintain engine RPM within the best torque range.

Warning!
On slippery road surfaces, never downshift in order to obtain braking action. This could result in drive wheel
slip and reduced vehicle control. Your vehicle's AB S will not prevent this type of loss of control.

Warning !
On slippery road surfaces, never downshift in order to obtain braking action. This could result in rear
wheel slip and reduced vehicle control. Your vehicle' s ABS will not prevent this type of loss of control.


Maneuvering
To maneuver in tight areas, e.g. when pulling into a parki ng space, control the vehicle speed by gradually releasing
the
brakes. Accelerate gently and never abruptly step on the ac celerator. To rock a vehicle out of soft ground (mud or
snow),
alternately shift from forward to revers e, while applying slight partial throttle. Rocking a vehicle free in this manner
may
cause the ABS malfunction indicator lamp to come on. Turn off and restart the engine to clear the malfunction
indication.

Stopping
For brief stops, e.g. at traffic lights, leave the transmission in gear and hold vehicle with the service brake. For longer
stops with the engine idling, shift into "N" or "P" and hold the vehicle with the service brake. When stopping the
vehicle
on an uphill gradient, do not hold it with the accelerator, use the brake. This avoids unnecessary transmission heat
build up.

Warning !
Getting out of your vehicle with the selector lever not fully engaged in position "P" is dangerous. Also,
when parked on an incline, position "P" alone may not prevent your vehicle from moving, possibly hitting
people or objects. Always set the parking brake in a ddition to shifting to position "P". When parked on
an incline, also turn front wheel against curb.

Electronic Main Key Remote Control

1. Transmit buttons
2. Lamp for battery check and function control



Checking Batteries:
If one of the transmit buttons is pressed, the function control lamp briefly illuminates - indicating that the batteries
are in order.Change batteries if the function control lamp does not light up briefly.







Changing Batteries:
Move lock (1) in direction of right arrow and slide out mechanical key (2, left arrow). Insert mechanical key (2) in
side opening (3) to open latch. Press briefly (do not use key as lever) to release battery compartment.
Remove mechanical key.
Lift battery compartment (4) slightly in direction of arrow (5) and remove in direction of arrow (6). Change batteries
(7), inserting new ones under contact spring (8) with plus (+) side facing up. Return battery compartment into housing
until locked in place.

Important !
Batteries contain materials that can harm the environment if disposed of improperly. Recycling of batteries is the
preferred method of disposal. For disposal, please follow manufacturer's recommendation on battery package.
Replacement battery: Lithium, type CR 2025 or equivalent.

Synchronizing Remote Control:
The remote control may have to be resynchronized, if the vehicle cannot be locked or unlocked. To synchronize
insert electronic key in steering lock. The remote control should once again be operational.
