2015 MERCEDES-BENZ B-Class ELECTRIC mirror

The following information is displayed:
R length of the journey since the last break.
R the attention level determined by ATTEN-
TION ASSIST ( Attention Level
Attention Level), dis-
played in a bar display in five levels from
high to low
R If ATTENTION ASSIST is unable to calculate
the attention level and cannot issue a warn-
ing, the System Suspended System Suspended message
appears. The bar display then changes the
display, e.g. if you are driving at a speed
below 37 mph (60 km/h) or above 124 mph
(200 km/h).
Activating ATTENTION ASSIST X
Activate ATTENTION ASSIST using the on-
board computer (Y page 194).
The system determines the attention level
of the driver depending on the setting
selected:
Selection Standard
Standard: the sensitivity with
which the system determines the attention
level is set to normal.
Selection Sensitive Sensitive: the sensitivity is set
higher. The attention level detected by Atten- tion Assist is adapted accordingly and the
driver is warned earlier.
When ATTENTION ASSIST is deactivated, the é symbol appears in the multifunction
display in the assistance graphic display.
When ATTENTION ASSIST has been deactiva-
ted, it is automatically reactivated after the
engine has been stopped. The sensitivity
selected corresponds to the last selection
activated (standard/sensitive).
Warning in the multifunction display If fatigue or increasing lapses in concentra-
tion are detected, a warning appears in the
multifunction display:
ATTENTION ASSIST ATTENTION ASSIST
Take a Break! Take a Break!.
In addition to the message shown in the mul-
tifunction display, you will then hear a warn-
ing tone. X
If necessary, take a break.
X Confirm the message by pressing the a
button on the steering wheel.
On long journeys, take regular breaks in good
time to allow yourself to rest properly. If you
do not take a break and ATTENTION ASSIST
still detects increasing lapses in concentra-
tion, you will be warned again after
15 minutes at the earliest. This will only hap-
pen if ATTENTION ASSIST still detects typical indicators of fatigue or increasing lapses in
concentration.
If a warning is output in the multifunction dis-
play, a service station search is performed in
COMAND. You can select a service station
and navigation to this service station will then
begin. This function can be activated and
deactivated in COMAND. Blind Spot Assist
General notes Blind Spot Assist monitors the areas on either
side of the vehicle that are not visible to the
driver with two lateral, rear-facing radar sen-
sors. A warning display in the exterior mirrors draws your attention to vehicles detected in
the monitored area. If you then switch on thecorresponding turn signal to change lanes,
you will also receive a visual and audible col-
lision warning.
Blind Spot Assist supports you from a speed
of approximately 20 mph (30 km/h).
Important safety notes G
WARNING
Blind Spot Assist does not react to:
R vehicles overtaken too closely on the side,
placing them in the blind spot area
R vehicles which approach with a large speed
differential and overtake your vehicle
As a result, Blind Spot Assist may not give
warnings in such situations. There is a risk of an accident. Driving systems

will need to use the programming button on
the door drive control panel. The program-
ming button may be positioned at different
locations depending on the manufacturer. It
is usually located on the door drive unit on the garage ceiling.
Familiarize yourself with the garage door
drive operating instructions, e.g. under "Pro- 262
FeaturesStowage and features

Notes on programming the remote con-
trol
Canadian radio frequency laws require a
"break" (or interruption) of the transmission
signals after broadcasting for a few seconds. Therefore, these signals may not last long
enough for the integrated garage door
opener. The signal is not recognized during
programming. Comparable with Canadian
law, some U.S. garage door openers also fea-
ture a "break".
Proceed as follows:
R if you live in Canada
R if you have difficulties programming the
garage door opener (regardless of where
you live) when using the programming

Problems when programming
If you are experiencing problems programing
the integrated garage door opener on the
rear-view mirror, take note of the following
instructions:
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.
The integrated garage door opener is com-
patible with devices that have units which
operate in the frequency range of 280 to
433 MHz.
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. Features

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 2and
12 inches (5to 30 cm) or at the same angle
but at varying distances.
R If another remote control is available for the
same garage door drive, repeat the same
programming steps with this remote con-
trol. Before performing these steps, make
