Folding-in both of the exterior mirrors using the remote control keyThe entire mirror can be folded by pressing the  symbol button on the remote
control key for 2 seconds. All windows must be closed.
The exterior mirror is folded back into the driving position when the ignition isswitched on.
Automatic dimming mirror
The exterior mirrors are dimmed together with the automatic dimming interior
mirror » page 59 .
Fold in passenger's mirror
On vehicles fitted with the memory function for the driver's seat » page 63, the
mirror tilts down slightly when the reverse gear is engaged and the rotary knob is
in the position 
or in position 
on vehicles with right-hand drive » Fig. 38 . This
provides an aid in seeing the kerb of the pavement when parking the car.
The mirror returns into its initial position after the rotary knob is moved out of po-
sition 
(or position 
on vehicles with right-hand drive) and put into another posi-
tion or if the speed is more than 15 km/h.
This mode can be enabled or disabled via the Maxi DOT display in the Travel
mode » page 29 menu option.
Memory function for mirrors
On vehicles fitted with a memory function for the driver seat, the relevant setting for the exterior mirrors can also be stored automatically when the seat position is
stored » page 63 .WARNINGDo not touch the exterior mirror surfaces, if the exterior mirror heating is
switched on - hazard of burning.
CAUTION
Never mechanically fold in or fold back the exterior mirrors with the fold-in func-
tion  by hand as this will damage the electric drive.
Note
■
The mirror heater only operates when the engine is running and up to an out-
side temperature of +35 ℃.■
If the power setting function fails at any time, the exterior mirrors can be set by
hand by pressing on the edge of the mirror surface.

The driver's seat should be adjusted in such a way that the pedals can be fully
pressed to the floor with slightly bent legs.
The seat backrest on the driver's seat should be adjusted in such a way that the
upper point of the steering wheel can be easily reached with slightly bent arms.
Correct adjustment of the seats is particularly important for the following: › Reaching the controls safely and quickly.
› A relaxed and fatigue-free body position.
› Achieving the maximum protection offered by the seat belts and the airbag
system.
WARNINGGeneral information■Caution when adjusting the seat! You may suffer injuries or bruises as a re-
sult of adjusting the seat without paying proper attention.■
The electric front seat adjustment is also functional when the ignition is
turned off (even with the ignition key removed). Therefore children should
never be left unattended in the vehicle.
■
The seat backrests must not be tilted too far back when driving, as this will
impair the function of the seat belts and of the airbag system – risk of injury!
■
Never carry more people than there are number of seats in the vehicle.
■
Each occupant must correctly fasten the seat belt belonging to the seat.
Children must be fastened » page 177, Transporting children safely with a
suitable restraint system.
WARNING (Continued)■ The front seats and head restraints must be adjusted to match the body
size at all times and the seat belt must always be fastened properly to provide
the most effective levels of protection to the passengers.■
Do not carry any objects on the front passenger seat except objects de-
signed for this purpose (e.g. child seats) – risk of accident!
WARNINGInformation for the driver■Only adjust the driver's seat when the vehicle is stationary – risk of accident!■
Maintain a distance of at least 25 cm from the steering wheel, and a dis-
tance of at least 10 cm between the legs and the dash panel at the height of
the knee airbag. Not maintaining this minimum distance will mean that the
airbag system will not be able to properly protect you – hazard!
■
Ensure that there are no objects in the driver's footwell, as these may get
caught in the pedal apparatus when driving or braking » page 126. You would
then no longer be able to operate the clutch, brake or acceleration pedals.
WARNINGInformation for the front passenger■Maintain a distance of at least 25 cm to the dash panel. Not maintaining this
minimum distance will mean that the airbag system will not be able to proper-
ly protect you – hazard!■
Always keep your feet in the footwell when the car is being driven – never
place your feet on the instrument panel, out of the window or on the surfaces of the seats. You will be exposed to increased risk of injury if it becomes nec-
essary to apply the brake or in the event of an accident. If an airbag is de-
ployed, you may suffer fatal injuries when adopting an incorrect seated posi- tion!
Note
■ After a certain time, play can develop within the adjustment mechanism of the
backrest angle.■
For safety reasons, it is not possible to store the seat position in the electric
seat memory and remote control key memory if the inclination angle of the seat
backrest is more than 102° in relation to the seat cushion.
■
Each time you store the position of the electrically adjustable driver's seat and
exterior mirrors, the existing setting is deleted.
