Mileage recorder
Fig. 11 Instrument cluster: Mileage recorder and reset
button
The mileage is stated in kilometres ("km") or
miles. You can switch the display from kilometres
to miles and vice versa via the infotainment sys
tem.
Right mileage recorder
The trip recorder shows the distance that has
been travelled since it was last reset. It is used to
measure individual journeys. The last digit of the
trip recorder indicates distances of 100 metres or
tenths of a mile.
The trip recorder can be reset to zero by pressing
the reset button �-
Left mileage recorder
The odometer on the left records the vehicle's to
tal mileage.
Fault display
If there is a fault in the instruments, the letters
DEF appear in the trip recorder display. Have the
fault rectified as soon as possible.
On-board computer
Fig. 12 Instrument cluster: Time and date display
22 Fig.
13 Instrument cluster: Consumption display
You can call up the following information se
quentially on the on-board computer:
- Time & date ¢ page 186
- Average fuel consumption (ltr./100 km)
- Single journey memory summary
- Total journey memory summary
The single journey memory processes the infor
mation on a journey from the time the ignition is
switched on until it is switched off. If the journey
is resumed within two hours after the ignition is
switched off, the new figures are automatically
included in the calculation.
Unlike the single journey memory, the total jour
ney memory is not erased automatical ly. In this
way, you can determine the period for which you
wish the on-board computer to supply driving in
formation.
Fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption can be shown in a
bar display ¢ Fig. 13. The average fuel consump
tion (ltr./100 km) from the single journey memo
ry can also be displayed. If the bar turns green,
your vehicle is saving fuel using one of the fol
lowing functions:
- Recuperation: Electrical energy can be stored in
the battery (recuperation) if the vehicle is trav
elling downhill or coasting in gear (overrun). In
this case, the bar will move towards the 0
symbol.
- Coasting mode*¢ page 75.

Fig. 33 Headliner: Operating unit
Important: The button in the headliner must be
programmed ¢ page 35 and the vehicle must
be within range of the garage door or other sys
tem you wish to operate.
.,. To open the garage door, press the button. The
LED ® will Light up or flash.
.,. To close the garage door, press the button
again.

transmi tter
Programming a button: Stage 1 (at the
operating unit)
1. Switch on the ignitio n.
2. Press
and hold down the two outer buttons in
the headliner ¢ page 35, Fig. 33 until the
yellow LED@ goes out and the green LED®
Lights up. This procedure will delete the
standard factory settings and does not need
to be repeated when programming the other
buttons.
3. Briefly press the particular button in the
headliner that you would Like to program .
4. Wait until the yellow LED@ flashes. The pro
gramming mode is then activated for S mi
nutes.
S. Step
in front of your vehicle with the original
hand-held transmitter for the system you
wish to assign to the button in the headliner.
Programming a button: Stage 2 (at the
radi ator grille)
6. Hold
the hand-held transmitter in front of
your car's radiator grille¢ Fig. 34.
7. Now press and hold the button on the hand
held transmitter until the turn signals on
your vehicle start to flash. This can take up to
30 seconds.
8. If the hazard Lights flash three times, the
button has been programmed successfully. If
the hazard Lights flash once only, the pro
gramming operation has failed or the five mi
nute programming period has expired. Re-
peat the programming procedure starting

with the 3rd step, or try holding the trans
mitter nearer or further away from the radia
tor grille.
9. If the garage door or other system still fails
to be activated using the buttons in the head
liner after programming is completed, it is
possible that the system might be working
with a rolling code instead of the normal
fixed security code. If this is the case, a roll
ing code programming is required in addi
tion to the steps described above
¢page 36.
Follow the instructions above to program the
other two buttons in the headliner. Start with the
3rd step.
Erasing the button programming
Programmed buttons can only be erased all at
once; it is not possible to erase them individually.
Reprogram the buttons if necessary.
.. Switch on the ignition.
.. Press and hold down the two outer buttons in
the headliner until the yellow LED@ goes out
and the green LED@ lights up.
Reprogramming the buttons
.. Switch on the ignition.
.. To
reprogram an individual button, press and
hold the desired button until the LED@ begins
to flash rapidly (after about 20 seconds). Then
release the button immediately. The program
ming mode is then activated for 5 minutes.
.. Continue with the 5th step.
@ Note
- The required distance between the hand
held transmitter and the HomeLink module
inside the radiator grille¢ Fig. 34 depends
on the system you are programming.
- Wi th some types of systems, you may need
to briefly release the button during pro
gramming and then press it again. When
programming a new device, keep the button
pressed for at least 15 seconds before try
ing again with the transmitter in a different
position. Watch out for your vehicles's haz
ard light signals during that time.
36 Rolling
code programming
Applies to vehicles: with garage door opener (Homelink)
Some devices require rolling code programming.
Identifying a rolling code
.. Press a programmed button in the headliner
again and hold it down.
.. Watch the LED@¢page 35, Fig. 33. If the
LED starts flashing rapidly, this indicates that
the system you wish to operate, such as a ga
rage door, is equipped with a rolling code.
.. Program the rolling code as follows:
Activating a system's drive unit
.. Locate the programming button on the sys
tem's drive unit. The exact location and colour
of the button may vary depending on the type
of system.
.. Press the programming button on the system's
drive unit (this will normally cause an indicator
lamp on the unit to light up). You now have
about 30 seconds to start and complete the
programming process for the button in the
headliner.
Programming the button in the headliner
.. Press the previously programmed button in the
headliner for 2 seconds .
.. Press
the button for 2 seconds again to com
plete rolling code programming.
.. For some systems, the button may have to be
pressed a third time to complete the program
ming sequence
.
After programming, the system should recognise
the signal and respond when the button in the
headliner is pressed. Now the other control but
tons can be programmed as required.
ijJ) Note
- Having a second person assist you makes
programming of the rolling code easier and
faster.
- If you encounter problems programming
the rolling code you may find helpful infor
mation in the operating instructions of the
system you wish to operate.

.&_ WARNING
- The rain sensor* is only intended to assist
the driver. The driver is still obliged to man
ually operate the windscreen wipers as re
quired depending on visibility.
- Do not use water-repellent coatings on the
windscreen. In bad visibility conditions such
as light rain, low sun or when driving at
night these coatings can cause increased
dazzle, which is a serious safety hazard.
Such coatings can also cause the wiper
blades to judder.
- Poor visibility can cause accidents. Always
ensure that the wiper blades are in good
condition ¢ page 44, Changing the wind
screen wiper blades. Lights
and vision
CD CAUTION
- In icy conditions, check that the wiper
blades are not frozen to the windscreen. If
the wiper blades are frozen to the wind
screen when you switch on the windscreen
wipers, this could damage the wiper blades.
- Make sure you switch off the windscreen
wiper system (lever in position 0) before you
use an automatic car wash. This will avoid
inadvertent triggering of the wipers and
possible damage to the wiper system.
(1)) Note
- The windscreen wipers are deactivated when
the ignition is switched off. You can activate
the windscreen wipers after switching the
ignition on again by moving the windscreen
wiper lever to any position.
- Worn or dirty wiper blades can cause smear
ing on the glass. This can also impair the ef
fectiveness of the rain sensor*. Please check
the wiper blades regularly.
- The windscreen washer jets are heated*
when the ignition is switched on if the out
side temperature is low.
- If you stop briefly, e.g. at traffic lights, the
wiper speed setting will automatically be re
duced by one level.
Cleaning windscreen wiper blades
Clean the wiper blades if the wipers leave smear
ing on the glass. Clean the wiper blades using a
soft cloth and a glass cleaning solution.
..,. Set the wiper arms to the service position
