consumers that you do
not need, such as the rear window
defroster or interior lighting.
Once the battery is

sufficiently charged, the
steering wheel heating will switch back on
automatically. Steering wheel EASY-ENTRY/EXIT

X
Point transmitter button 0083 of garage door
remote control 0084
towards the transmitter
buttons on the rear-view mirror at a
distance of 2 to 12 inches (5 to 30 cm).
i The distance between garage door
remote control 0083 and the integrated
garage door opener
depends

on the system
of the garage door drive. Several attempts
might be necessary. You should test every
position for at least 20 seconds before
trying another position.
X Keep transmitter button 0084 on garage door
remote control 0083

pressed until indicator
lamp 0043 starts to flash rapidly.
The programming has been successful if
indicator lamp 0043 flashes rapidly.
X Release transmitter buttons 0044, 0087 or 0085
on the integrated remote control and
transmitter button 0084 on the garage door
remote control.
If indicator lamp 0043 goes out after
approximately 20 seconds and has not
flashed rapidly:
X Release transmitter buttons 0044 ,

0087 or 0085
on the integrated remote control and
transmitter button 0084 on the garage door
remote control.
X Repeat the procedure for the other
transmitter buttons. When doing so, vary
the distance between the garage door's
remote control and
the

transmitter buttons
in the rear-view mirror.
i If the garage door system works with a
rolling code, you must synchronize 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
"Synchronizing the transmitter" or
"Registering a new transmitter". You can
also call the hotline mentioned above. Synchronizing the rolling code

The rolling code synchronization is then
complete.
Notes on programming the remote
control
Canadian radio frequency laws require a
"break" (or interruption) of the transmission 282
Features
Stowage and features

signals after broadcasting for a few seconds.
Therefore, these signals may not last long
enough for the integrated remote control to
recognize the signal during programming.
Comparable with Canadian law, American
garage door openers also have a built-in
"interruption".
If you live in Canada or have difficulties
programming the garage door opener
(regardless of where
you
live) when using the
programming steps, proceed as follows: Integrated remote control in the rear-view mirror

depressed until the integrated remote
control has been set up successfully.
X At the

same time, press transmitter button
0084 of the garage door remote control for
two seconds, then release it for two
seconds, then press it again for two
seconds.
X Repeat this sequence on transmitter

If you have problems when programming the
integrated remote control, please note the
following:
R Check the transmitter
frequency

of garage
door remote control 0083 (which can usually
be found on the back of the remote
control).
The integrated remote control is
compatible with devices that have units
which operate in the frequency range of
280 to 390 MHz.
R Replace the batteries in garage door
remote control 0083. This increases the
probability of garage door remote control
0083 sending a strong and more precise
signal to the integrated remote control on
the rear-view mirror.
R When programming, hold garage door
remote control 0083 at varying distances and
angles from the transmitter button which
you are programming. Try various angles at
a distance between 2and 12 inches (5to
30 cm) or at the same angle but at varying
distances.
R If there is another garage door remote
control for the same device, perform the
programming steps again using that garage Features
