programming process for the correspond-
ing button on the rear-view mirror. When
doing so, vary the distance between remote control Aand the rear-view mirror.
The required distance between remote
control Aand the integrated garage door
opener depends on the garage door drive
system. Several attempts may be required.
You should test every position for at least
25 second sbefore trying another position.
Synchronising the rolling code
Observe the "Important safety notes"
(Y page 328).
If the garage door system uses a rolling code,
you will also have to synchronise the garage
door system with the integrated garage door
opener in the rear-view mirror. To do this you
will need to use the programming button on
the door drive control panel. The program-
ming button may be placed at different loca-
tions depending on the manufacturer. It is
usually located on the door drive unit on the
garage ceiling.
Familiarise yourself with the garage door
drive operating instructions, e.g. under "Pro-
gramming of additional remote controls",
before carrying out the following steps.
Your vehicle must be within range of the
garage door or gate opener drive. Make sure
that neither your vehicle nor any persons/ objects are present within the sweep of the
door or gate.
X Turn the key to position 2in the ignition
lock (Y page 159).
X Get out of the vehicle.
X Press the programming button on the door
drive unit.
Usually, you now have 30 seconds to ini-
tiate the next step.
X Get into the vehicle.
X Press previously programmed button ;,
= or? of the integrated garage door
opener until the door closes.
The rolling code synchronisation is then
complete.
Problems when programming
If you have problems when programming the
integrated garage door opener, please note
the following: R Check the transmitter frequency used by
garage door drive remote control Aand
whether it is supported. The transmitter
frequency can usually be found on the back
of the garage door drive remote control.
R Replace the batteries in garage door
remote control A. This increases the like-
lihood that garage door remote control A
will transmit a strong and precise signal to the integrated garage door opener in the
rear-view mirror.
R When programming, hold remote control
A at varying distances and angles from the
button which you are programming. Try var- ious angles at a distance between 5and
30 cm or at the same angle but at varying
distances.
R If there is another remote control for the
same garage door drive, perform the pro-
gramming steps again using this remote
control. Before performing these steps,
make sure that new batteries have been
fitted in garage door drive remote control
A. Features

High-pressure cleaning equipment G
WARNING
The water jet of circular-jet nozzles (dirt grind- ers) can cause damage not visible from the
outside to tyres or chassis components. Com-
ponents damaged in this way can unexpect-
edly fail. There is a risk of an accident.
Do not use high-pressure cleaners with circu-
lar-jet nozzles to clean the vehicle. Have dam- aged tyres or chassis components replaced
immediately.
! Always maintain a distance of at least
30 cm between the vehicle and the high-
pressure cleaner nozzle. Information about the correct distance is available from the
equipment manufacturer.
Move the high-pressure cleaner nozzle
around when cleaning your vehicle.
Do not aim directly at any of the following:
R tyres
R door gaps, roof gaps, joints etc.
R electrical components
R battery
R connectors
R lights
R seals
R trim elements
R ventilation slots
Damaged seals or electrical components
can lead to leaks or failures.
! If the key is within the rear detection
range of KEYLESS-GO, the following situa-
tions, for example, could lead to the boot lid opening unintentionally:
R using a car wash
R using a high-pressure cleaner
Make sure that the key is at least 3 m away
from the vehicle.
Cleaning the paintwork !
Do not affix:
R stickers
R films
R magnetic plates or similar items
to painted surfaces. You could otherwise
damage the paintwork.
Scratches, corrosive deposits, areas affected by corrosion and damage caused by inade-
quate care cannot always be completely
repaired. In such cases, visit a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
X Remove impurities immediately, where
possible, whilst avoiding rubbing too hard.
X Soak insect remains with insect remover
and rinse off the treated areas afterwards. Care

ensure that a warning message will only
appear if the tyre pressure drops significantly.
The tyre pressure monitor does not warn you of an incorrectly set tyre pressure. Observe
the notes on the recommended tyre pressure
(Y page 380).
The tyre pressure monitor is not able to warn
you of a sudden loss of pressure, e.g. if the
tyre is penetrated by a foreign object. In the
event of a sudden loss of pressure, bring the
vehicle to a halt by braking carefully. Avoid
abrupt steering manoeuvres.
The tyre pressure monitor has a yellow warn-
ing lamp in the instrument cluster for indicat- ing a pressure loss or malfunction. Depending
on how the warning lamp flashes or lights up, a tyre pressure that is too low or a malfunc-
tion in the tyre pressure monitor is indicated:
R if the warning lamp is lit continuously, the
tyre pressure on one or more tyres is sig-
nificantly too low. The tyre pressure moni-
tor is not malfunctioning.
R if the warning lamp flashes for around a
minute and then remains lit constantly, the tyre pressure monitor is malfunctioning.
i In addition to the warning lamp, a mes-
sage appears in the multifunction display.
You can find further information under:
(Y page 293).
If the tyre pressure monitor is malfunctioning,
it may take more than ten minutes for the tyre pressure warning lamp to inform you of the
malfunction by flashing for approximately one
minute and then remaining lit. When the fault
has been rectified, the tyre pressure warning lamp goes out after you have driven for a few
minutes.
The tyre pressure values indicated by the on- board computer may differ from those meas-
ured at a filling station using a pressure
gauge. The tyre pressures shown by the on-
board computer refer to those measured at
sea level. At high altitudes, the tyre pressure
values indicated by a pressure gauge are
higher than those shown by the on-board computer. In this case, do not reduce the tyre
pressures.
The operation of the tyre pressure monitor
can be affected by interference from radio
transmitting equipment (e.g. radio head-
phones, two-way radios) that may be being
operated in or near the vehicle.
Checking the tyre pressure electroni-
cally X
Make sure that the key is in position 2
(Y page 159) in the ignition lock.
