Important safety notes G
WARNING
On its own, the safety net cannot secure or
restrain heavy objects, items of luggage and
heavy loads. You could be hit by an unsecured load during sudden changes in direction,
braking or in the event of an accident. There isan increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Always store objects so that they cannot be
flung around. Secure objects, luggage or
loads against slipping or tipping over, e.g. by
using lashing material, even if you are using
the safety net. It is important to use a safety net if you load the
vehicle with small objects above the seat backr-
ests. For safety reasons, always use a safety net when transporting a load.
Damaged safety nets can no longer fulfil their
protective function and must be replaced. Visit a qualified specialist workshop.

Important safety notes G
WARNING
When a load is transported on the roof, the
vehicle's centre of gravity rises and the han-
dling changes. If you exceed the maximum
roof load, the handling as well as steering and braking characteristics are severely affected.
There is a risk of an accident.
Always observe the maximum roof load and
adapt your driving style.
! Mercedes-Benz recommends that you only
use roof carriers that have been tested and
approved for Mercedes-Benz vehicles. This
helps to prevent damage to the vehicle.
Position the load on the roof carrier in such a way that the vehicle will not sustain damage
even when it is in motion.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, ensure
that when the roof carrier is fitted you can:
R raise the sliding sunroof fully
R open the panorama sliding sunroof fully
R open the tailgate fully
You will find information on the maximum roof
load in the "Technical data" section

Important safety notes G
WARNING
Operating mobile communications equip-
ment while driving distracts you from paying
attention to traffic conditions. This could also cause you to lose control of the vehicle. There
is a risk of an accident.
Use this device only when the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
You must observe the legal requirements for the country in which you are currently driving when
operating mobile communications equipment in the vehicle.
If it is permitted by law to operate communica-
tions equipment while the vehicle is in motion,
you may only do so if the traffic situation per-
mits. You may otherwise be distracted from the
traffic conditions, cause an accident and injure
yourself and others.
Excessive levels of electromagnetic radiation
may cause damage to your health and to the
health of others. The use of an exterior aerial
takes into consideration the scientific discus-
sion surrounding the possible health risk posed
by electromagnetic fields.
Mercedes-Benz recommends the use of an
approved exterior aerial. This ensures:
R optimal mobile phone reception quality in the
vehicle
R that mutual interference between the vehicle
electronics and mobile phones is minimised
An exterior aerial has the following advantages:
R it conducts the electromagnetic fields gener-
ated by a wireless device to the exterior
R the field strength in the vehicle interior is
lower than in a vehicle that does not have an exterior aerial
Information on retrofitting two-way radios and
mobile phones (RF transmitters) (Y page 433).General notes There are various mobile phone brackets that
may be fitted in your vehicle; in some cases,
these are country-specific.
More information on suitable mobile phones,
mobile phone brackets and on connecting Blue-
tooth ®
-capable mobile phones with the multi-
media system can be obtained:
R at your Mercedes-Benz Service Centre
R on the Internet at http://www.mercedes-
benz.com/connect
The functions and services available when you
use the phone depend on your mobile phone
model and service provider.
Using a mobile phone To connect a mobile phone to the exterior aerial
and charge it, insert it into the mobile phone
bracket.
X Open the telephone compartment
(Y page 352).
X Place the mobile phone bracket into the pre-
installed fitting; see the separate installation
instructions for the mobile phone fitting.
X Insert the mobile phone into the mobile phone
bracket; see the separate installation instruc-
tions for the mobile phone fitting.
i The mobile phone can also be operated
without being in the bracket. However, the
charging function and aerial function are not
available.
In order to use Bluetooth ®
(SAP profile) on your
telephone module, you must first insert the tele-
phone module into the pre-installed fitting. This connects it to the exterior aerial. If you wish to
charge the mobile phone, then you must con-
nect it to a USB port.
Further information on the telephone module
with Bluetooth ®
(SAP profile) can be found in the
Digital Owner's Manual.
Operating the mobile phone You can operate the telephone using the
6
and ~ buttons on the multifunction steering
wheel. You can operate other mobile phone
functions via the on-board computer
(Y page 288).
When you remove the key from the ignition lock, the mobile phone is disconnected from the vehi- 366

cle. You can then no longer make calls using the
hands-free system.
If a call is active and you remove the key from
the ignition lock, the conversation is transferred over to the mobile phone. It is then possible to
continue the conversation on the mobile phone. Garage door opener

WARNING
When you operate or program the garage door with the integrated garage door opener, per-
sons in the range of movement of the garage
door can become trapped or struck by the
garage door. There is a risk of injury.
When using the integrated garage door
opener, always make sure that nobody is
within the range of movement of the garage
door. G

The required distance between remote con-
trol 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 seconds before trying another position.
Synchronising the rolling code
Observe the "Important safety notes"
(Y page 367).
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 programming but-
ton may be placed at different locations depend- ing 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 "Program-
ming of additional remote controls", before car-
rying out the following steps.
Your vehicle must be within range of the garage
door or gate opener drive. Make sure that nei-
ther 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 158).
X Get out of the vehicle.
X Press the programming button on the door
drive unit.
Usually, you now have 30 seconds to initiate
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 com- plete.
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 fre-
quency 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 likelihood that
garage door remote control Awill 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 but-
ton which you are programming. Try various
angles at a distance between 5and 20 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 programming
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.
R Note that some remote controls transmit only
for a limited period (the indicator lamp on the remote control goes out). Press button Bon
remote control Aagain before transmission
ends.
R Align the aerial cable of the garage door
opener unit. This can improve signal recep-
tion/transmission.
Opening or closing the garage door Once programmed, the integrated garage door
opener will assume the function of the garage
door system's remote control. Please also read
the operating instructions for the garage door
system. 368
