The transmitter and the battery are housed in the housing of the remote control. The receiver is located in the interior of the vehicle.
The effective range of the radio remote control when the battery is charged is up
to 600 m. Obstacles between the remote control and the vehicle, bad weather
conditions and a weakening battery can reduce the range significantly.
To switch the auxiliary heating (aux. heating) on or off, hold the remote control
vertical, with the aerial

» Fig. 97 pointing upwards. The antenna must not be
covered with the fingers or the palm of the hand during this process.
The auxiliary heating can only be switched on/off safely using the radio remotecontrol, if the distance between the radio remote control and the vehicle is at
least 2 m.

Internet connection via Bluetooth ®
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 105.
A notebook can, for example, be connected to the Internet via the hands-free
system.
The control unit of the hands-free system supports the GPRS, EDGE and UMTS/3G
technologies.
An Internet can only be established via a telephone which is connected via the rSAP profile.
The procedure for connecting to the Internet can vary depending on the type and version of the operating system as well as the type of the device to be connected.
Successfully connecting to the internet requires appropriate knowledge of the
operating system for connecting the device .

Parking aid
 Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Function
141
Activation/deactivation
141WARNING■ The parking aid is not a substitute for the driver paying proper attention and
it is always the driver's responsibility to take care when reversing the vehicle
or carrying out similar manoeuvres. Pay particular attention to small children
and animals as they may not be recognised by the system sensors.■
Before reversing, you should make sure that there are no small obstacles,
such as rocks, thin posts, trailer drawbars etc. in front or behind your vehicle.
Such obstacles may not be recognised by the system sensors.
■
Under certain circumstances, surfaces of certain objects and types of cloth-
ing cannot reflect the system signals. Thus, these objects or people who wear such clothing are not recognised by the System sensors.
■
External sound sources can have a detrimental effect on the system. Under
adverse conditions, this can cause objects or people to not be recognized by
the system.
CAUTION
■ If a warning signal sounds for about 3 seconds after activating the system and
there is no obstacle close to your car, this indicates a system fault. The fault is
also indicated by the symbol  flashing in the button » Fig. 119 on page 141 .
Seek help from a specialist garage.■
The sensors must be kept clean (free of ice, etc.) to enable the system to oper-
ate properly.
■
The system function may be limited under adverse weather conditions (heavy
rain, water vapour, very low or high temperatures etc.).
■
Additionally installed modules such as bicycle carriers can impair the function of
the parking aid.
Note
■ The signal tones for front obstacle recognition are factory-set to be higher than
for rear obstacle recognition.■
If not all fields around the vehicle are shown after the system is activated, the
vehicle will need to be moved a few metres forwards or in reverse.
■
The sound of the park-assist can be adjusted via the MAXI DOT display in the
Assistants menu option » page 29.
■
If the system is activated and the selector lever of the automatic gearbox is in
position P (the vehicle cannot move), the warning tone is interrupted and no ob-
stacles are displayed.

140Driving

WARNING■The system does not exempt the driver from his/her responsibility for park-
ing in and manoeuvring out of the parking space.■
External sound sources can have a detrimental effect on parking in and ma-
noeuvring out of the parking space. Under adverse conditions, this can cause
objects or people to not be recognized by the system.
■
When parking in, and manoeuvring out of parking spaces, the system auto-
matically executes quick steering movements. While it is doing so, do not place your hands between the steering wheel – risk of injury!
■
When parking or leaving a parking space on loose or slippery surfaces (grav-
el, snow, ice, etc.) you may stray from the calculated road because of the sur-
face conditions. Therefore we suggest that you do not use the system in such
situations.
CAUTION
■ If other vehicles are parked behind the kerb or on it, the system can also guide
your vehicle beyond the kerb or onto it. Ensure that the wheels or the wheel rims
of your vehicle are not damaged and if necessary intervene in time.■
Under certain circumstances, surfaces or structures of certain objects such as
wire mesh fences or powder snow cannot be recognised by the system.
■
The system function may be limited under adverse weather conditions (heavy
rain, water vapour, very low or high temperatures etc.).
■
The evaluation of the parking space and the parking procedure depends on the
circumference of the wheels on the vehicle. The system only works correctly if
the vehicle is fitted with the wheel size approved by the manufacturer.
■
If wheels other than those approved by the manufacturer are mounted, the re-
sulting position of the vehicle in the parking space can differ slightly. This can be avoided by readjusting the system at a specialist garage.
■
Under certain circumstances, the system may not function correctly, for exam-
ple, if the vehicle is fitted with snow chains or a temporary spare wheel.

arises.
› Speed of more than 7 km/h exceeded during the manoeuvring procedure.
› System button pressed.
› Engagement of the ASR system.
› TCS system switched off.
› Intervention of the driver in the automatic steering procedure (stops the steer-

Automatic brake assist
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 143.
The system provides assistance to the driver with automatic brake assist. The au-
tomatic brake assist does not exempt the driver from his/her responsibility for
the accelerator, brake and clutch.
Automatic braking for preventing cancellations caused by excessive speeds
To prevent the speed from exceeding 7 km/h and to subsequently prevent can-
cellation of the parking procedure, automatic brake support is initiated. The park-
ing procedure can be resumed after automatic braking.
Automatic braking takes place only once per parking procedure.
Automatic braking for damage limitation
The system detects an imminent collision based on the driving speed and the dis-
tance from the obstacle, automatic brake support is initiated.
The system function is ended after this automatic brake assist for damage limita-
tion.
WARNING■ Automatic brake assist only works as an element of the assist function. The
driver must always be ready to brake the vehicle him/herself.■
Automatic brake assist is ended after around 1.5 seconds. Depress the brak-
ing pedal so that the vehicle does not start moving by itself.

Cruise Control System
 Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Activating/deactivating
148
Storing and maintaining speed
148
Changing the stored speed
148
Switching off temporarily
148
The Cruise Control System (CCS) maintains a set speed, more than 25 km/h, with-
out you having to actuate the accelerator pedal.
This is only possible within the range which is permitted by the power output and
braking power of the engine.
The warning light 
illuminates in the instrument cluster when the cruise control
system is switched on.
WARNING■ For safety reasons, the cruise control system must not be used in dense
traffic or on unfavourable road surfaces (such as icy roads, slippery roads,
loose gravel) – risk of accident!■
The saved speed may only be resumed if it is not too high for the current
traffic conditions.
■
Always deactivate the cruise control system after use to prevent the system
being switched on unintentionally.
CAUTION
■ The cruise control system is not able to maintain a constant speed when driving
in areas with steeper gradients. The weight of the vehicle increases the speed at which it travels. In such cases, a lower gear should be engaged or the footbrake
applied.■
It is not possible to switch on the cruise control system if the first gear or re-
verse gear is engaged (Vehicles fitted with a manual transmission) 
