Delayed locking of the boot lidRead and observe
on page 57 first.
If the boot lid is unlocked with the symbol button
on the remote control
key, then the door is automatically locked after closing.
The period after which the boot lid is locked automatically can be extended by a specialist garage.
After activation of delayed locking, the boot lid can be opened again after clos-
ing within a limited period.
Delayed locking can be deactivated by a specialist garage at any time.
CAUTION
There is a risk of unwanted entry into the vehicle before the boot lid is locked
automatically. We therefore recommend locking the vehicle with the symbol
button
on the remote control key.

Operational faults
60WARNINGThe system is fitted with a force limiter » page 60. If there is an obstacle,
the closing process is stopped and the window goes down by several centi-
metres. However, the windows should be closed carefully – risk of injury.CAUTION■ Keep the windows clean to ensure the correct functionality of the electric
windows.■
In the event that the windows are frozen, first of all eliminate the
ice » page 172 , Windows and mirrors and only then operate the electrical
power windows. Otherwise, the window sealing and the electrical power win-
dow mechanism could be damaged.
■
In the winter, ice accumulating on the surface of the window may cause
there to be more resistance when closing the window. The window will stop
and move back several centimetres.
■
It is necessary to deactivate the force limiter to close the win-
dow » page 60 .
■
Make sure that the windows are closed whenever you leave the locked vehi-
cle.
■
Always close the sliding/tilting roof before disconnecting the battery.
For the sake of the environment
At high speeds you should keep the windows closed to prevent unnecessarily high fuel consumption.
Note
■ After switching the ignition off, it is still possible to open or close the win-
dows for approx. 10 minutes. After the driver's or front passenger's door has
been opened, the windows can only be operated by using button A
» Fig. 40
on page 59 .
■
When driving always use the existing heating, air conditioning and ventila-
tion system for ventilating the interior of the vehicle. If the windows are
opened, dust as well as other dirt can get into the vehicle and in addition the wind noise is more at certain speeds.
■
The window lift mechanism is equipped with protection against overheating.
Repeated opening and closing of the window can cause this mechanism to
overheat. If this happens, it will not be possible to operate the window for a
short time. You will be able to operate the window again as soon as the over-
heating protection has cooled down.

There is a button in the front passenger door and in the rear doors for that
window.
Opening

59Unlocking and opening
Releasing the button causes the window to halt immediately.
Force limitRead and observe
and on page 58 first.
The electrical power window system is fitted with a force limiter.
If there is an obstacle, the closing process is stopped and the window goes
down by several centimetres.
If the obstacle prevents the window from being closed during the next 10 sec-
onds, the closing process is interrupted once again and the window goes down
by several centimetres.
If you attempt to close the window again within 10 seconds of the window be-
ing moved down for the second time, even though the obstacle was not yet
been removed, the closing process is only stopped. During this time it is not
possible to automatically close the window. The force limiter is still switched
on.
The force limiter is only switched off if you attempt to close the window again
within the next 10 seconds - the window will now close with full force!
If you wait longer than 10 seconds, the force limiter is switched on again.
Window convenience operation

The prerequisite for ensuring that the convenience operating feature correctly
is the automatic opening/closing of all windows is operational.
Convenience opening or closing the window using the key in the driver's lock
is only possible within 45 seconds after locking the vehicle.
The movement of the window is stopped immediately when the key or the re-
spective button is released.
Operational faults

on page 63 first.
COMING HOME (hereinafter referred to only as a function) switches the light
automatically for a short time after leaving the vehicle.
LEAVING HOME (hereinafter referred to only as a function) switches the light
automatically for a short time when approaching the vehicle.

locked with the remote control).
The function switches on the following light, depending on the equipment
fitted.
› Parking lights
› Low beam
› Entry lighting in the exterior mirrors
› Licence plate light
Poorer visibility is evaluated by a motor mounted in the holder of the interior
mirror sensor.
COMING HOME
The light turns on automatically when you open the driver's door on (within 60
seconds of turning off the ignition).
The light turns off 10 seconds after closing all the doors and the boot lid or af-
ter the pre-set time has expired.
If a door or the boot lid remains open, the light goes out after 60 seconds.

control.
The light turns off after 10 seconds or after a pre-set time or after the vehicle
is locked.
If no door is opened, the vehicle is locked automatically after 30 seconds.
Enabling / disabling and setting function
The functions and settings of the illumination time can be activated/deactiva-
ted via the MAXI DOT display in the menu items Coming Home or Leaving
Home » page 47 .
CAUTION
■
Do not attach any stickers or similar objects in front of the light sensor on
the windscreen to avoid impairing the function or its reliability.■
If this function is activated constantly, the battery will be heavily discharged
particularly in short-haul traffic.

All the turn signal lights on the vehicle flash at the same time when the hazard
warning light system is switched on. The warning light for the turn signals and
the warning light in the button also flash at the same time. The hazard warn-
ing light system can also be operated if the ignition is switched off.
68Using the system
If one of the airbags is deployed, the hazard warning light system will switch
on automatically.
If the turn signal light is switched on when the hazard warning light and the
ignition are both switched on, then only the turn signal light on the corre-
sponding vehicle side will flash.WARNINGSwitch on the hazard warning light system if, for example, the following oc-
curs.■
You encounter a traffic congestion.
■
The vehicle has broken down.

warning sounds. After a few seconds or after closing the driver's door, the au-
dible alarm is turned off, but the parking lights will remain switched on.
CAUTION

over short distances.Instrument lightingFig. 50
Controls for the instrument
lighting
Read and observe on page 63 first.
The brightness of the instrument lights can be set only if the parking, low
beam or high beam is switched on.
Turning the knob » Fig. 50
Adjust brightness of the instrument lighting.
Note
On vehicles with MAXI DOT display » page 47 the brightness of the instrument
lighting is set automatically. A manual brightness adjustment can therefore
only have a limited effect.
Driving abroad
Read and observe
on page 63 first.
The low beam is set asymmetrically. It illuminates the side of the road on
which the vehicle is being driven to a greater extent.
When driving in countries with opposing traffic system (traffic on the left/
right), asymmetric headlight adjustment can dazzle oncoming traffic. In order
to avoid this, the headlights must be adjusted at a specialist garage.
You can adjust the headlights with Xenon lights in the menu of the MAXI DOT
display under the menu point Travel mode » page 47 , Settings .
Note
You can find out more information on adjusting the headlights at a specialist
garage.69Lights and visibility
