Seats
Important safety notes
G
WARNING
The seats can still be adjusted when there is
no key in the ignition lock. For this reason,
children should never be left unsupervised in
the vehicle. They could otherwise become
trapped when adjusting the seat. G
WARNING
In order to avoid possible loss of vehicle
control, all seat, head restraint, steering
wheel and rear view mirror adjustments, as
well as fastening of seat belts, must be done
before setting the vehicle in motion. G
WARNING
Do not adjust the driver's seat while driving.
Adjusting the seat while driving could cause
the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
Never travel in a
moving vehicle with the seat
backrest in an excessively reclined position as
this can be dangerous. You could slide under
the seat belt in a collision. If you slide under
it, the seat belt would apply force at the
abdomen or neck. This could cause serious or
fatal injuries. The seat backrest and seat belts
provide the best restraint when the wearer is
in a position that is as upright as possible and
seat belts are properly positioned on the
body. G
WARNING
Your seat belt must be adjusted so that you
can correctly fasten your seat belt.
Observe the following points:
R adjust the seat backrest
until your arms are
slightly angled when holding the steering
wheel.
R adjust the seat to a comfortable seating
position that still allows you to reach the
accelerator/brake pedal safely. The
position should be as far back as possible with the driver still able to operate the
controls properly.
R adjust the head restraint so that it is as
close to the head
as possible and the center
of the head restraint supports the back of
the head at eye level.
R never place hands under the seat or near
any moving parts while a seat is being
adjusted.
Failure to do so could result in an accident
and/or serious personal injury. G
WARNING
According to accident statistics, children are
safer when properly restrained on the rear
seats than on the
front-passenger seat. Thus,
we strongly recommend that children be
placed in the rear seat whenever possible.
Regardless of seating position, children 12
years old and under must be seated and
properly secured in an appropriately sized
child restraint system or booster seat
recommended for the size and weight of the
child. For additional information, see the
"Children in the vehicle" section.
A child's risk of serious or fatal injuries is
significantly increased if the child restraints
are not properly secured in the vehicle and/
or the child is not properly secured in the child
restraint. G
WARNING
For your protection, drive only with properly
positioned head restraints.
Adjust the head restraint
so that it is as close
to the head as possible and the center of the
head restraint supports the back of the head
at eye level. This will reduce the potential for
injury to the head and neck in the event of an
accident or similar situation.
Do not drive the vehicle without the seat head
restraints. Head restraints are intended to
help reduce injuries during an accident. Seats

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

X Press the programming button of the door
or gate drive (see the door or gate drive
operating instructions, e.g. under
"Programming of additional remote
controls").
i Usually, you now have 30 seconds to
initiate the next step.
X Press previously programmed button 0044,
0087 or
0085 of the integrated garage door
opener until the door closes.
The rolling code synchronization is then
complete.
