R open the driver's door when the key is in
position 0or 1in the ignition lock
When the key is inserted into the ignition lock
with the driver's door closed, the steering

wheel is stored when you switch off the igni-
tion or when you store a memory position

ture* can only be activated after an acci-
dent if the EASY-ENTRY/EXIT feature is
activated in the on-board computer.
When the crash-responsive EASY-EXIT fea-
ture is triggered in an accident, the steering
wheel column will move upwards irrespec- tive of the position of the key in the ignition
lock. This makes it easier to exit the vehicle
or rescue the occupants. Mirrors

Risk of accident
The exterior mirrors reduce the size of the
image. Objects are actually closer than they
appear. You could misjudge the distance from
vehicles driving behind and cause an acci-
dent, e.g. when changing lane. For this rea-
son, make sure of the actual distance from the
vehicle driving behind by glancing over your
shoulder.
The convex exterior mirrors provide a larger
field of vision.
At low outside temperatures, the exterior mir-
rors are heated automatically. 72
