Important safety notes G
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
WARNING
Combustion engines emit poisonous exhaust
gases such as carbon monoxide. Inhaling
these exhaust gases leads to poisoning. There is a risk of fatal injury. Therefore never leave the engine running in enclosed spaces with-
out sufficient ventilation.
Programming Programing buttons
Pay attention to the "Important safety notes"
(Y page 361). Garage door remote control
0083is not inclu-
ded with the integrated garage door opener.
X Turn the SmartKey to position 2in the igni-
tion lock (Y page 157).
X Select one of buttons 0044to0085 to use to
control the garage door drive.
X To start programing mode: press and
hold one of buttons 0044to0085 on the inte-
grated garage door opener.
The garage door opener is now in program-
ing mode. After a short time, indicator
lamp 0043lights up yellow.
Indicator lamp 0043lights up yellow as soon
as button 0044,0087or0085 is programed for the
first time. If the selected button has already been programed, indicator lamp 0043will
only light up yellow after ten seconds have elapsed.
X Release button 0044,0087or0085. Indicator
lamp 0043flashes yellow.
X To program the remote control: point
garage door remote control 0083towards

Press and hold button 0084on remote control
0083 until indicator lamp 0043lights up green.
When indicator lamp 0043lights up green:
programing is finished.
When indicator lamp 0043flashes green: pro-
graming was successful. The next step is to
synchronize the rolling code.
X Release button 0084on remote control 0083for
the garage door drive system.
If indicator lamp 0043lights up red: repeat the
programing procedure for the correspond-
ing button on the rear-view mirror. When
doing so, vary the distance between remote control 0083and the rear-view mirror.
The required distance between remote
control 0083and the integrated garage door
opener depends on the garage door drive
system. Several attempts might be neces-
sary. You should test every position for at
least 25 seconds before trying another
position.
Synchronizing the rolling code
Pay attention to the "Important safety notes"
(Y page 361).
If the garage door system uses a rolling code, you will also have to synchronize the garage
door system with the integrated garage door
opener in the rear-view mirror. To do this you
will need to use the programing button on the
door drive control panel. The programing but- ton 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-
graming of additional remote controls",
before carrying out the following steps.
Your vehicle must be within reach 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 SmartKey to position 2in the igni-
tion lock (Y page 157).
X Get out of the vehicle.
X Press the programing 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 programed button 0044,0087
or 0085 on the integrated garage door opener
until the door closes.
The rolling code synchronization is then
complete.
Notes on programing the remote control
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
programing. Comparable with Canadian law,
some U.S. garage door openers also feature a
"break".
Proceed as follows:
R if you live in Canada
R if you have difficulties programing the
garage door opener (regardless of where
you live) when using the programing steps.
X Press and hold one of buttons 0044to0085 on
the integrated garage door opener.
After a short time, indicator lamp 0043lights
up yellow.
X Release the button.
Indicator lamp 0043flashes yellow.
X Press button 0084of garage door remote
control 0083for two seconds, then release it
for two seconds.
X Press button 0084again for two seconds.
X Repeat this sequence on button 0084of
remote control 0083until indicator lamp 0043
lights up green.
When indicator lamp 0043lights up green:

Problems when programing
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 0083and
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 0083. This increases the like-
lihood that garage door remote control 0083
will transmit a strong and precise signal to the integrated garage door opener.
R When programing, hold remote control 0083
at varying distances and angles from the
button which you are programing. Try vari-
ous 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
programing steps with this remote control. Before performing these steps, make sure
that new batteries have been installed in
garage door drive remote control
0083.
R Note that some remote controls only trans-
mit for a limited amount of time (the indi-
cator lamp on the remote control goes out).
Press button 0084on remote control 0083again
before transmission ends.
R Align the antenna cable of the garage door
opener unit. This can improve signal recep-tion/transmission.
Opening/closing the garage door After it has been programed, the integrated
garage door opener performs the function of
the garage door system remote control.
Please also read the operating instructions
for the garage door system.

Cleaning the windows G
WARNING
You could become trapped by the windshield wipers if they start moving while cleaning the
windshield or wiper blades. There is a risk of
injury.
Always switch off the windshield wipers and
the ignition before cleaning the windshield or
wiper blades.
! Do not use dry cloths, abrasive products,
solvents or cleaning agents containing sol- vents to clean the inside of the windows. Do
not touch the insides of the windows with
hard objects, e.g. an ice scraper or ring.
There is otherwise a risk of damaging the
windows.
! Clean the water drainage channels of the
windshield and the rear window at regular
intervals. Deposits such as leaves, petals
and pollen may under certain circumstan-
ces prevent water from draining away. This
can lead to corrosion damage and damage to electronic components.
X Clean the inside and outside of the win-
dows with a damp cloth and a cleaning
product that is recommended and
approved by Mercedes-Benz.
Cleaning wiper blades G
WARNING
You could become trapped by the windshield wipers if they start moving while cleaning the

the ignition before cleaning the windshield or
wiper blades. !
Do not pull the wiper blade. Otherwise,
the wiper blade could be damaged.
! Do not clean wiper blades too often and
do not rub them too hard. Otherwise, the
graphite coating could be damaged. This
could cause wiper noise.
! Hold the wiper arm securely when folding
back. The windshield could be damaged if
the wiper arm smacks against it suddenly.
X Fold the windshield wiper arms away from
the windshield.
X Carefully clean the wiper blades with a
damp cloth.
X Fold the windshield wiper arms back again
before switching on the ignition.
Cleaning the exterior lighting !

lighting using a wet sponge and a mild
cleaning agent, e.g. Mercedes-Benz car
shampoo or cleaning cloths.
Mirror turn signals !
Only use cleaning agents or cleaning
cloths that are suitable for plastic lenses.
Unsuitable cleaning agents or cleaning
