Unlocking and locking
46
The anti-theft alarm system is also deacti vated if you unlock the vehicle door using
the key within 45 seconds after locking the vehicle.
Once you unlock the vehicle by inserting the key into the driver door within 45
seconds, you then have to in sert the key into the ignition lock and switch the igni-
tion on within 15 seconds after opening the door in order to deactivate the anti-
theft alarm system. The alarm will be triggered if you do not switch on the igni-
tion within 15 seconds.
When is the alarm triggered?
The following security areas of the locked vehicle are monitored:
•Bonnet,
•Boot lid,
•Doors,
•Ignition lock,
•Socket of the factory-fitted towing device
•Angle of the vehicle*,
•Vehicle interior*,
•A drop in voltage of the on-board power supply.
An alarm is immediately triggered if either of the two battery terminals is discon-
nected while the anti-theft alarm system is activated.
How is the alarm switched off?
You switch the alarm off if you unlock the car with the radio remote control in the
key or if you switch the ignition on.
Note
•The working life of the alarm siren is 6 years. More detailed information is avail-
able by a specialist garage.
•Before leaving the car, check that al l the doors, windows and the electric
sliding/tilting roof* are properly closed in order to ensure that the anti-theft alarm
system is fully operational.
•Coding of the radio remote control and the receptor part precludes the use of
the radio remote control from other vehicles.

•You can change the illumination period for the Coming Home Function by
means of the information display*.
Leaving Home Function
This function makes it possible to switch on the lights when approaching
the vehicle.
Switching on Leaving Home Function
– Unlock the vehicle with the radio remote control - the lights come on.
Depending on equipment fitted the function Leaving Home switches on the
following lights:
•Parking lights,
•Low beam,
•Entry lighting in the exterior mirrors,
•Licence plate light.
Leaving Home Function
The function Leaving Home is controlled wi th the light sensor in the mount of the
interior rear mirror. If the light intensity is higher than the set value of the light
sensor, the Leaving Home Func tion is not switched on after unlocking the vehicle
with the radio remote control.
After unlocking the vehicle with the radio re mote control, the lights come on for 30
seconds. The Leaving Home Function is al so switched off after the ignition is
switched on and after locking the vehicle.
If no door is opened within 30 seconds, the lights go out and the vehicle is locked
automatically.
Note
•If the Leaving Home Function is switched on constantly, the battery will be
heavily discharged particularly in short-haul traffic.
•The switching on of the described lights should only be undertaken in accord-
ance with the legal requirements.
•You can change the illumination period for the Leaving Home Function by
means of the information display*.
Adaptive head lights (AHL)*
Switch on Adaptive headlights (AHL)*
– Turn the light switch ⇒page 54, fig. 42 into position
.
The outer illumination switches on if:
•the light sensor recognizes the low light intensity,
•no reverse gear is engaged,
•the operation “tourist light” is not switched on.
The light sensor switches on the full ou ter illumination at low light intensity,
System AHL* makes it possible to change the length and width of illumination of
the headlight. The length and width of illumination changes automatically in rela-
tion to the vehicle speed and the use of the windscreen wiper.
System AHL* operates in the following modes.
Mode out of town
The mode “out of town” is a basic mode. The dispersion of the cone of light in front
of the vehicle is similar to the low beam. Th e mode is active if none of the following
modes are active.
Mode rain
In the mode “rain” the dispersion of the cone of light in front of the vehicle is wider
and the width of illumination is shorter, so that during bad weather (rain) the
dazzling of the oncoming drivers can be re duced. The mode is activated at speeds
of 15 - 70 km/h and if the windscreen wi pers continuously operate for a period of
time longer than 2 minutes. The mode is deactivated when dropping below or
exceeding the set speed limit or if the windscreen wipers have been switched off for
a period of time longer than 8 minutes.

Fast wipe
– Position the lever up into position .
Automatic wipe/wash for windscreen
– Pull the lever towards the steering wheel into sprung position , the wash system sprays immediately, the windscreen wiper starts wiping
a little later. The wash system and the windscreen wiper operate
simultaneously at a speed of more than 120 km/h.
– Release the lever. The windscreen wash system stops and the wiper continues for another 3 - 4 wiper stro kes (depending on the period of
spraying of the windscreen). At a speed of more than 2 km/h, the wiper
wipes once again* 5 seconds after the last wiper stroke in order to
wipe the last drops from the windsc reen. This function can be acti-
vated/deactivated by a specialist garage.
Rain sensor*
– Move the lever into position .
– You can set the sensitivity of the sensor individually with switch .
Switching windscreen wipers off
– Move the lever back into its home position .
After the windscreen wiper switches off each time or the ignition switches off for
the third time, the position of the windscreen wiper changes, this counteracts an
early fatigue of the wiper rubbers.
The windscreen wipers and the wash system only operate if the ignition is switched
on and the bonnet is closed.
If the intermittent wipe is switched on, the intervals are also controlled depending
on speed.
The rain sensor* automatically regulates the break between the individual wiper
strokes depending on the intensity of the rain.
The windscreen washer nozzles are heated* when the ignition is switched on. Top up with wash liquid
⇒page 220.
Winter position
If the windscreen wipers are in rest posi tion, they cannot be folded out from the
windscreen. For this reason we recommend adjusting the windscreen wipers in
winter so that they can be folded out fr om the windscreen easily. You can set this
rest position as follows:
•Switch on the windscreen wipers.
•Switch off the ignition. The windscreen wipers remain in the position in which
they were when switching off the ignition.
You can also use the service position as a winter position.
WARNING
•Properly maintained windscreen wiper blades are essential for clear visi-
bility and safe driving ⇒page 67.
•Do not use the windscreen washer system at low temperatures, without
heating the windscreen beforehand. Otherwise the window cleaner could
freeze on the windscreen and re strict the view to the front.
•The rain sensor only operates as a support. The driver is not released
from the responsibility to set the function of the windscreen wipers manu-
ally depending on the visibility conditions.
Caution
In frosty weather, please first of all check whether the windscreen wiper blades are
not frozen to the windscreen before switching them on. Switching on windscreen
wipers when the blades are frozen to the windscreen may result in damage both to
the blades and the motor of the windscreen wipers!
Note
•If the slower or the faster wiper setting is switched on ⇒page 65, fig. 58
and the vehicle speed decreases to below 4 km/h, the lower wiper step is switched
on automatically. At a speed increase of more than 8 km/h the previous wiper
setting is established again.
