During the first 10 seconds of anti-
theft alarm system activation:
LED illu‐
minates=Test, ignition delay,LED
flashes
quickly=Door, load
compartment or bonnet open, or system fault.
After the first 10 seconds of anti-theft
alarm system activation:
LED flashes
slowly=System active.
Seek the assistance of a workshop in
the event of faults.
Alarm
When triggered, the alarm gives off
an acoustic signal (horn) and a visual signal (hazard warning flashers). The
number and duration of which are
stipulated by legislation.
The alarm siren can be silenced by
pressing any button of the radio
remote control or by switching on the
ignition. The anti-theft alarm system is deactivated at the same time.
If the vehicle's battery is to be
disconnected (e.g. for maintenance
work), the alarm siren must be
deactivated as follows: switch the
ignition on then off, then disconnect
the vehicle's battery within
15 seconds.
Immobiliser
The system checks whether the
vehicle is allowed to start with the key being used. If the transponder in the
key is recognised, the engine can be
started.The immobiliser activates itself
automatically after the key has been removed from the ignition switch.
If control indicator A flashes when
the ignition is on, there is a fault in the
system; the engine cannot be started. Switch off the ignition and then repeat
the start attempt.
If control indicator A continues
flashing, attempt to start the engine
using the spare key and seek the
assistance of a workshop.
If control indicator A illuminates after
the engine has started, there is a fault in the engine electronics or
transmission electronics 3 81,
3 122, 3 127, or there is water in the
diesel fuel filter 3 90.
Notice
The immobiliser does not lock the doors. You should always lock the
vehicle after leaving it and switch on the anti-theft alarm system 3 21,
3 25.

Seats, restraints35
Head restraints on rear seats
The height of the head restraints can
be set in two positions.
To set to the first position, pull the
head restraint upwards. To set to the
second position press the spring

head restraint right up to the top.
To adjust downwards, press the
spring marked in the illustration and
push the head restraint downwards.
Active head restraints
In the event of a rear-end impact, the
active head restraints tilt slightly
forwards. The head is more
effectively supported so the risk of
whiplash injury is reduced.

60Storage
Align the bicycle in the longitudinal
direction of the vehicle: Slightly
loosen the pedal mount.
Place the bicycle upright using the
rotary lever on the pedal crank
recess.
If the two bicycles obstruct one
another, the relative positions of the
bicycles can be adapted by adjusting
the wheel recesses and the rotary
lever on the pedal crank recess until
the bicycles no longer touch one
another. Make sure there is sufficient
clearance from the vehicle.Tighten the attachment screw for the
pedal bearing mount to its maximum
point by hand.
Secure both bicycle wheels to wheel
recesses using strap retainers.
Check the bicycle to make sure it is
secure.
Caution
Ensure gap between bicycle and
vehicle is at least 5 cm. If
necessary, loosen handlebar and swivel sideways.
The settings for the wheel recesses
and on the rotary lever on the pedal
crank recess should be noted and saved for each bicycle. Correct
presetting will facilitate refitting of the
bicycle.
Notice
It is recommended to attach a
warning sign at the rearmost bicycle to increase visibility.
Removing a bicycle from the rear carrier system
Undo strap retainers on both bicycle
tyres.
