93Easy-entry/exit feature*
The EASY-ENTRY feature makes getting in
and out of your vehicle easier.
The steering wheel swings upwards whe n
you:
R remove the key from the ignition lock
R open the driver's door when the key is in
the ignition lock or in position 1
The steering wheel is moved automatically to
the position previously set when the key is
inserted into the ignition lock with the driver's
door closed. G
Risk of injury
Make sure that nobody can become trap -
ped when you activate the easy-entry/exit
feature.
If there is a risk of becoming trapped, stop
the adjustment procedure. To halt the pro-
cedure:
R press the steering-column adjustment
switc h
R press one of the memory function posi-
tion buttons
The steering column stops moving immedi-
ately. Never leave children unsupervised in the
vehicle. They could open the driver's door
and thereby unintentionally activate the
easy-entry feature and become trapped.
The most recent position of the steering
wheel is stored.
You can activate and deactivate the EASY-
ENTRY feature using the on-board computer
( Y page 144). Mirrors
Before starting off, adjust the mirrors in such
a way that you can get a good overview of
road and traffic conditions. Rear-view mirror

Automatically folding exterior mirrors
in or out * If the "Fold in mirrors when locking" function
is activated in the on-board computer
( Y page 144),
R the exterior mirrors fold in automatically as
soon as you lock the vehicle from the out-
side
R the exterior mirrors fold out again automat-
ically as soon as you unlock the vehicle and
then open the driver's or front-passenge r
door
i If you have activated the function and fold
in the exterior mirrors using button 1, they
will not be folded out automatically. You
can then only fold out the exterior mirrors
using button 1. Automatic anti-dazzle mirrors
*
The rear-view mirror and the exterior mirror
on the driver's side automatically go into anti-
dazzle mode if the ignition is switched on and
incident light from headlamps strikes the sen-
sor in the rear-view mirror.
The mirrors do not go into anti-dazzle mode if
reverse gear is engaged and the interior light-
ing is switched on. G
Risk of accident
If the incident light from headlamps canno t
strike the sensor in the rear-view mirror, for
instance when the rear window blind* is
extended, the mirrors' automatic anti-daz-
zle function will not operate.
Incident light could then dazzle you. This
may prevent you from observing the traffic
conditions, thereby causing an accident. In
this case, adjust the rear-view mirror man-
ually. G
Risk of injury
Electrolyte may escape if the glass in an
automatic anti-dazzle mirror breaks.
Electrolyte is an aggressive irritant and
must not be allowed to come into contact
with your skin, eyes or respiratory organs . If electrolyte comes into contact with your
eyes or skin, rinse thoroughly with clean
water immediately. Consult a doctor if nec-
essary.
! If electrolyte comes into contact with the
vehicle paintwork, immediately rinse off
the undried liquid completely with clean
water. It will otherwise result in damage to
the paintwork . Parking aid*
The exterior mirror on the front-passenger
side moves into the parking position as soon
as you engage reverse gear. Controls
