Important safety notes
G
Risk of injury
Very hot or very cold air can flow from the air
vents. This could cause burns or frostbite to
bare skin in the immediate vicinity of the
vents. Keep bare skin away from these air
outlets. If necessary, direct the airflow away
to a different area of the vehicle interior. In order to ensure the direct flow of fresh air
through the air vents into the vehicle interior,
please observe the following notes:
R
keep the air inlet between the windscreen
and the bonnet free of blockages, such as
ice, snow or leaves
R never cover the ventsora ir inlet and outlet
grilles in the vehicle interior
i For virtually draught-free ventilation,
adjust the sliders of the air vents to the

opener (Y page 263).
X Turn the key to position 2in the ignition
lock.
X Press and hold one of the transmitter but-
tons ;to? on the integrated garage door
opener.
After a short time, indicator lamp :will
start flashing. It flashes abouto nce per

once a second after 20 seconds have
elapsed.
X Keep the transmitter button depressed.
X Point transmitter button Bof garage door

buttons on the rear-view mirror at a dis-
tance of 5 to 20 cm.
i The required distance between garage
door remote control Aand the integrated
door opener depends on the garage door
drive system. You might require several
attempts. You should test every position for
at least 20 seconds before trying another
position.
X Press and hold transmitter button Bon

distance between the garage door remote
control and the rear-view mirror.
i If the garage door system works with a
rolling code, you must synchronise the
remote control integrated in the rear-view
mirror with the garage door system
receiver after programming.
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. Problems when programming
If you experience problems when program-
ming the garage door opener integrated in the
rear-view mirror, note the following:
R
check the transmitter frequency of garage
door remote control A(this can usually be
found on the rear of the remote control).
R change the batteries in garage door remote
control A.This increases the likelihood
that garage door remote control Awill
send a strong and precise signal to the
integrated remote control in the rear-view
mirror.
R when programming, hold garage door
remote control Aat different distances
and angles from the transmitter button that
you are programming. Try various angles at
distances from 5 to 30 cm or the same
angle but varying distances.
R If there is another remote control for the
same garage door drive, perform the pro-
gramming steps again using the other
remote control. Before performing these
steps, make sure that new batteries have
been fitted in the garage door remote con-
trol.
R Align the aerial cable of the garage door
opener unit. This can improve signal recep-
tion/transmission.
Opening or closing the garage door Once programmed, the integrated remote
control will assume the function of the garage
door system's remote control. Please also
read the operating instructions for the garage
door system.
X
Turn the key to position 2in the ignition
lock.
X Press transmitter button ;,=or? in the
overhead control panel that you have pro-
grammed to operate the garage door.
