Synchronising the rolling code
Observe the "Important safety notes"
(Y page 369).
If the garage door system uses arolling code,
you will also have to synchronise the garage
door system with the integrated garage door
opener in the rear-view mirror .Todothis you
will need to use the programming button on
the door drive control panel. The program-
ming button may be placed at differen tloca-
tion sdepending on the manufacturer. It is
usually located on the door drive unit on the
garage ceiling.
Familiarise yourself with the garage door
drive operatin ginstructions, e.g. under "Pro-
grammin gofadditional remot econtrols",
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 179).
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 nexts tep. X
Get intot he 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 frequenc yused by
garage door drive remot econtrol Aand
whether it is supported. The transmitter
frequenc ycan usually be found on the back
of the garage door drive remot econtrol.
R Replace the batteries in garage door
remot econtrol A.This increases the like-
lihood that garage door remot econtrol A
will transmit astrong and precise signal to
the integrated garage door opener in the
rear-view mirror.
R When programming, hold remot econtrol
A at varying distances and angles from the
button which you are programming. Try var- ious angles at adistanc ebetween 5and
30 cm or at the same angle but at varying
distances.
R If ther eisanother remot econtrol for the
same garage door drive, perform the pro-
grammin gsteps again using this remote
control. Befor eperforming these steps,
make sure that new batteries have been
fitted in garage door drive remot econtrol
A.
R Note that some remot econtrols transmit
only for alimited period (the indicator lamp
on the remot econtrol goes out). Press but-
ton Bon remot econtrol Aagain before
transmission ends.
R Align the aerial cable of the garage door
opener unit. This can improve signal recep-
tion/transmission. 370

379Maintenance and care Z

Special service requirements
The prescribed service interval is based on
normal operation of the vehicle. Service work
will need to be performed more often if the
vehicle is operated under arduousc onditions
or increased loads, for example:
R regular city driving with frequent intermedi-
ate stops
R if the vehicle is primarily used to travel
short distances
R for frequent operation in mountainous ter-
rain or on poor road surfaces
R if the engine is often left idling for long peri-
ods
In these or similar operating conditions, have,
for example, the air filter, engine oil and oil
filter changed more frequently. The tyres
must be checked more frequently if the vehi-
cle is operated under increased loads. Fur-
ther information can be obtained at aquali-
fied specialist workshop, e.g. aMercedes-
Benz Service Centre.

MOExtended tyres (tyres with run-flat
characteristics)
General notes With MOExtended tyres (tyre
swith run-flat
characteristics), you can continue to drive
yourv ehicleeven if there is atotal loss of
pressure in one or more tyres. The affected
tyre must not show any clearly visible dam-
age.
You can recognise MOExtended tyres by the
MOExtended marking which appears on the
tyre wall. You willf ind this marking next to the
tyre size designation, the load-bearing capa-
city and the spee dindex.
MOExtended tyres may only be usedinc on-
junction with an activated tyre pressure loss
warning system or tyre pressure monitor.
If ap ressure lossw arningmessage
appears in the multifunction display:
R observe the instructions in the display mes-
sage s(Ypage3 22)
R check the tyre for damage
R if driving on, observe the following notes
The driving distance possible in run-fla tmode
is approximately 80 km when the vehicl eis
partiallyl aden and approximately 30 km
when the vehicl eisfullyladen.
In addition to the vehicl eload, the driving dis-
tance possible depends upon:
R vehicl espeed
R road condition
R outside temperature
The driving distance possible in run-fla tmode
may be reduced by extreme driving condi-
tions/manoeuvres ,oritcan be increased
through amoderate style of driving.
The driving distance possible in run-fla tmode
is counted from the moment the tyre pressure loss warning appears in the multifunction dis-
play.
You must not exceed amaximu mspee dof
80 km/h. When replacing one or all tyres, observe the
following specifications for yourv
ehicle's
tyres:
R size
R the type and
R the "MOExtended "mark.
If at yre has gone flat and cannot be replaced
with an MOExtended tyre, astandard tyre
may be usedasat emporary measure. Make
sure that you use the prope rsize and type
(summer or winter tyre).
Vehicles with MOExtended tyres are not
equipped with aTIREFIT kit at the factory. It is
therefore recommende dthat you additionally
equip yourv ehiclewithaTIREFIT kit if you fit
tyres that do not feature run-fla tcharacteris-
tics, e.g. winter tyres. ATIREFIT kit can be
obtained from aqualified specialist work-
shop.
