Overhead control panel with integrated remote
control
Hand-held remote control
A is not part of the
vehicle equipment.
Programming the integrated remote
control X
Step 1: Switch on the ignition.
X Step 2: If you have previously programmed
a signal transmitter button and wish to
retain its programming, proceed to step 3.
or
X If you are programming the integrated
remote control for the first time, press and
hold the two outer signal transmitter
buttons ; and ? and release them when
indicator lamp : begins to flash after
approximately 20 seconds.
Do not hold the buttons for longer than
30 seconds.
This procedure erases any previous
settings for all three channels and
initializes the memory. If you later wish to
program a second and/or third hand-held
transmitter to the remaining two signal
transmitter buttons, do not repeat this step
and begin directly with step 3.
X Step 3: Hold the end of hand-held remote
control A of the device you wish to train
approximately 2 to 12 in (5 to 30 cm) away
from the signal transmitter button ( ;, =
or ?) to be programmed, while keeping

from a slow to a rapidly flashing light,
release the hand-held remote control
button and the signal transmitter button.
X Step 6: Press and hold the just-trained
signal transmitter button (;, = or ?) and
observe indicator lamp :.
If indicator lamp : stays on constantly,
programming is complete and your device
should activate when the respective signal
transmitter button ( ;, = or ?) is pressed
and released.
i If indicator lamp : flashes rapidly for
approximately 2 seconds and then turns to
a constant light, continue with
programming steps 8 through 12 as your
garage door opener may be equipped with
the “rolling code” feature.
X Step 7: To program the remaining two
signal transmitter buttons, repeat the steps
above starting with step 3.
Rolling code programming
To train a garage door opener (or other rolling
code devices) with the rolling code feature,
follow these instructions after completing the
“Programming” portion (steps 1 through 6) of
this text. For your convenience and to
complete the procedure faster, you might
want to have someone assist you. 184

Step 8: Locate the “training” button on the
garage door opener motor head unit.
i Exact
location and color of the button may
vary by garage door opener brand.
Depending on manufacturer, the “training”
button may also be referred to as “learn” or
“smart” button. If there is difficulty locating
the transmitting button, refer to the garage
door opener Operator’s Manual.
X Step 9: Press the “training” button on the
garage door opener motor head unit.
The “training light” is activated.
You have 30 seconds to initiate the

signal transmitter button (;,
= or ?).
X Step 11: Press, hold for 2 seconds and
release same signal transmitter button a
second time to complete the training
process.
i Some garage door openers (or other
rolling

code equipped devices) may require
you to press, hold for 2 seconds and
release the same signal transmitter button
a third time to complete the training
process.
X Step 12: Confirm the garage door
operation by pressing the programmed
signal transmitter button ( ;, = or ?).
X Step 13: To program the remaining two
signal

transmitter buttons, repeat the steps
above starting with step 3.
Gate operator/Canadian programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit)
after several seconds of transmission which
may not be long enough for the integrated
signal

transmitter to pick up the signal during
programming. Similar to this Canadian law,
some U.S. gate operators are designed to
“time-out” in the same manner. If you live in Canada or if you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator
(regardless of where you live) by using the
programming

procedures, replace step 4 with
the following:
X Step 4: Press and hold the signal
transmitter button ( ;, = or ?). Do not
release this button until it has been
successfully trained.
X While still holding down the signal
transmitter button ( ;, = or ?), “cycle”
your hand-held remote control button B
as follows: Press and hold button B for
2 seconds, then release it for 2 seconds,
and again press and hold it for 2 seconds.
Repeat this sequence on the hand-held
remote control until the frequency signal
has been learned.
Upon successful training, indicator
lamp : will flash slowly and then rapidly
after several seconds.
X Proceed with programming step 5 and
step 6 to complete.
i Upon completion of programming the
integrated remote control, make sure you
retain the hand-held remote control that
came with the garage door opener, gate
operator or other device. You may need it
for use in other vehicles, for future
programming of an integrated remote
control, or simply for continued use as a
hand-held remote control to operate the
respective device in other situations.

Erasing the integrated remote control
memory i
If
you sell your vehicle, erase the codes of
all three channels.
X Switch on the ignition.
X Simultaneously press and hold outer signal
transmitter buttons ; and ?, for
approximately 20 seconds, until indicator
lamp : flashes rapidly. Do not hold for
longer than 30 seconds.
The

codes of all three channels are erased.
Programming tips If you are having difficulty programming the
integrated remote control, here are some
helpful tips:
R
Check the frequency of hand-held remote
control A

(typically located on the reverse
side of the remote). The integrated remote control is compatible with radio-frequency
devices operating between 280-390 MHz

.
R Put a new battery in hand-held remote
control A. This will increase the likelihood
of the hand-held remote control sending a
stronger and more accurate signal to the
integrated remote control.
R While performing step 3, hold hand-held
remote control A at different lengths and
angles from the signal transmitter button
(;, = or ?) you are programming.
Attempt varying angles at the distance of 2
to 12 inches (5 to 30 cm) away or the same
angle at varying distances.
R If another hand-held remote control is
available for the same device, try the
programming steps again using that other
hand-held remote control. Make sure new
batteries are in the hand-held remote
control before beginning the procedure.
R Straighten the antenna wire from the
garage door opener assembly. This may
help improve transmitting and/or receiving
signals.
i Certain types of garage door openers are
incompatible with the integrated remote
control. If you should experience further
difficulties with programming the
integrated remote control, contact an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center, or call
the Mercedes-Benz Customer Assistance
Center (USA only) at
1-800-FOR-MERCedes, or the HomeLink ®
Hotline (USA only) at 1-800-355-3515, or
the Customer Service (Canada only) at
