Detected parking space on the left
2 Parking space symbol
3 Detected parking space on the right
Parking Guidance will only detect parking
spaces:
R that are closed in at the back.
R that are parallel to the direction of travel.
R that are at least 1.5 m wide.
R that are at least 1.0 m longer than your
vehicle.
A parking space is displayed while you are
driving past it, and until you are 15 m away
from it. Parking Guidance only displays park-
ing spaces on the front-passenger side as
standard. Parking spaces on the driver's side
are displayed as soon as the turn signal on
the driver's side is activated. If you wish to
park in a space on the driver's side, the indi-
cator on the driver's side must remain on until
reverse gear is engaged.
Parking The following instructions refer to parking in
a space on the front-passenger side. To park
in a space on the driver's side, mirror the
instructions.
Parking Guidance will emit a warning tone if
it detects an obstacle behind the vehicle
while you are parking. Stop immediately. The
parking space and the lane begin to flash in
the instrument cluster. Make sure that there
is no danger before continuing to drive. The display in the instrument cluster stops flash-
ing when Parking Guidance no longer detects
an obstacle. You can continue parking. G
Risk of accident
Parking Guidance is only an aid and may not
detect all obstacles. Parking Guidance may
not be able to detect objects in corners or on
smooth surfaces. Parking Guidance does not
relieve you of the responsibility for paying
attention.
You are always responsible for safety and
must continue to pay attention to your imme-
diate surroundings when parking and
manoeuvring. Otherwise, you could endanger
yourself and others.

space symbol shows the desired parking
space in the instrument cluster.

The reversing camera is an optical parking
aid. It shows the area behind your vehicle in
the COMAND display.
In addition to the camera function, it assists
you by providing guide lines when you are
reversing. G
Risk of injury
Make sure that no persons or animals are in
the manoeuvring range. Otherwise, they
could be injured.
The reversing camera is located in the handle

tioning settings (Y page 268) and fold
down the camera cover.
X To clean the windscreen on the inside:
fold down the camera cover and use a soft
cloth to clean the windscreen in front of the
camera. Blind Spot Assist*
Blind Spot Assist uses a radar sensor system
to monitor the area on both sides of your
vehicle. It supports you when you change
lanes at speeds above 30 km/h. In each case,
a warning lamp appears in the exterior mirror
as soon as a vehicle is detected in the area
monitored. When you switch on the corre-
sponding turn signal prior to changing lanes,
you receive an optical and acoustic collision
warning. Blind Spot Assist uses two sensors
in the front bumper and four sensors in the
rear bumper. G
Risk of accident
Blind Spot Assist is only an aid and may not
detect all vehicles. Blind Spot Assist does not
relieve you of the responsibility of paying
attention.
Always pay attention to traffic conditions and
your surroundings. Otherwise, you may fail to
recognise dangers in time, could cause an
accident and injure yourself and others.
! You must deactivate the radar sensor sys-
tem in certain countries and near radio
telescope facilities. Further information
can be found in the index under "Radar
sensor system".
Vehicles with COMAND and navigation sys-
tem*: you must deactivate the radar sensor 260

Yellow indicator lamp/red warning lamp
When you turn the key to position 2in the
ignition lock, warning lamps :in the exterior
mirrors light up red.
If Blind Spot Assist is switched on and the
engine is running, indicator lamps :in the
exterior mirrors light up yellow up to a speed
of 30 km/h. At speeds above 30 km/h, the
indicator lamp goes out and Blind Spot Assist
is operational.
If a vehicle is detected within the monitoring
range of Blind Spot Assist at speeds above
30 km/h, warning lamp :on the corre-
sponding side lights up red.
The yellow indicator lamp goes out three sec-
onds after reverse gear is engaged. In this
event, Blind-Spot Assist is no longer active.
The brightness of the indicator/warning
lamps is adjusted automatically according to
the ambient light. G
Risk of accident
Blind Spot Assist is not active at speeds below
30 km/h, and the indicator lamps in the exte-
rior mirrors are yellow. Vehicles in the moni-
toring range are then not indicated.
Always pay attention to traffic conditions and
your surroundings. Otherwise, you may fail to
recognise dangers in time, could cause an
accident and injure yourself and others. Collision warning If a vehicle is detected in the monitoring range
of Blind Spot Assist and you switch on the turn
signal, a double warning tone sounds. Red

General notes
The automatic air conditioning controls the
temperature and the humidity of the vehicle
interior and filters out undesirable substan-
ces from the air.
The automatic air conditioning is only opera-
tional when the engine is running. 31
Optimum
operation is only achieved when you drive
with the side windows and sliding/tilting sun-
roof closed.
i Ventilate the vehicle for a brief period
during warm weather, e.g. using the con-
venience opening feature (Y page 201).
This will speed up the cooling process and
the desired vehicle interior temperature
will be reached more quickly.
31 The "residual heat" function can only be switched on/off if the ignition is switched off. 262

elapsed.
X Keep the transmitter buttons depressed.
X Point the garage door's remote control with
the transmitter towards the left-hand side
of the rear-view mirror from a distance of 5
to 20 cm.
i The distance between the garage door's
remote control and the integrated garage
door opener depends on the system of the
garage door drive. You might require sev-
eral attempts. You should test every posi-
tion for at least 20 seconds before trying
another position.

door's remote control depressed until indi-
cator lamp :starts to flash rapidly.
The programming was successful if indica-
tor lamp :flashes rapidly.

grated remote control.
If indicator lamp :goes out after approx-
imately 20 seconds and did not flash rapidly
before this:
X Release the transmitter buttons on the
integrated and portable remote controls.
X Repeat the programming procedure. When
doing so, change the distance between the
garage door's remote control and the trans-
mitter buttons in the rear-view mirror.
i If the garage door system works with a
rolling code, after programming you must synchronise the remote control integrated
in the rear-view mirror with the garage door
system receiver.
You will find further information in the
garage door opening system's operating
instructions, e.g. the sections on "Synchro-
nising the transmitter" or "Registering a
new transmitter". You can also call the hot-
line mentioned above.
