Adjusting1. Press the L button for the left door mirror
or the R button for the right door mirror.
The light in the button comes on.
2. Adjust the position with the joystick in the center.
3. Press the L or R button again. The light
should no longer be on.
WARNING
Objects seen in the mirrors may appear further away than they actually are.
Retractable power door mirrors*The mirrors can be retracted for parking/driv- ing in narrow spaces:
1. Press down the L and R buttons at the
same time.
2. Release them after approximately one second. The mirrors automatically stop in the fully retracted position.
Fold out the mirrors by pressing down the L
and R buttons at the same time. The mirrors
automatically stop in the fully extended posi-tion.
Storing the position*The mirror positions are stored in the keymemory when the vehicle has been lockedwith the remote key. When the vehicle isunlocked with the same remote control themirrors and the driver's seat adopt the storedpositions when the driver's door is opened. The function can be activated/deactivated in MY CAR under

Tilting the door mirrors when parking*The door mirrors can be tilted down to help give the driver a better view along the sides of the vehicle, for example when parallel park-ing. To activate this function, select reverse gear and press the
L or R mirror control button to
tilt the mirror down. The function can be activated/deactivated in MY CAR under

Interior rearview mirror
Auto-dim functionThe interior rearview mirror’s auto-dim func- tion is controlled by two sensors: one point-ing forward (located on the forward-facingside of the mirror, which monitors the amountof ambient light) and one pointing rearward(located on the side of the mirror facing thedriver at the upper edge, which senses thestrength of following vehicles' headlights), and work together to help eliminate glare. 1

Digial compass*

}}
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.115
Operation
Rearview mirror with compass.
The rear-view mirror has an integrated display that shows the compass direction in whichthe vehicle is pointing. Eight different direc- tions are shown with the abbreviations:
N(north), NE (north east), E (east), SE (south-
east), S (south), SW (southwest), W (west)
and NW (northwest).
The compass is displayed automatically when the vehicle is started or in ignition mode II. To
switch the compass on/off use a pen, paper-clip or similar object and press in the buttonon the underside of the mirror.
CalibrationNorth America is divided into 15 magneticzones and the compass will need to be cali- brated if the vehicle is driven into a new one(see the magnetic zones on the map in thefollowing section "Selecting a magneticzone"). To do so:
1. Stop the vehicle in a large open area,
safely out of traffic and away from steel structures and high-tension electricalwires.
2. Start the vehicle.
NOTE
• For best calibration results, switch off all electrical equipment in the vehicle(climate system, windshield wipers,audio system, etc.) and make sure thatall doors are closed.
• Calibration may not succeed or beincorrect if the vehicle's electricalequipment is not switched off.
3. Using a pen, paperclip or similar object,
press and hold the button on the under- side of mirror for approx. 6 seconds until
C is displayed in the mirror.
4. Press and hold the button for 3 seconds until the number of the current magnetic zone is displayed. 5. Press the button repeatedly until the
number of the desired magnetic zone (
1-15) is displayed. See the magnetic
zones on the map in the following section "Selecting a magnetic zone").
6. Wait until
C is again displayed in the mir-
ror.
7. Drive slowly in a circle at a speed of no more than 6 mph (10 km/h) until a direc- tion is displayed. This indicates that cali-bration is complete.
8. Drive around in a circle an additional two times to fine-tune the calibration.
9. Vehicles with an electrically heated windshield:
* if
C is displayed when the
heating function is activated, perform step 7 with the heating function on. Seealso page 221 for additional informationabout the heated windshield.
Repeat the calibration procedure if neces-sary.

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.117
Introduction
The laminated panoramic roof is divided into two sections.
• The rear glass section is fixed in place and cannot be moved.
• The front glass section can be slid hori-zontally to the open or closed positions orits rear edge can be raised and loweredto allow ventilation.
All references in this section to opening or closing the panoramic roof pertain to the frontglass section. The laminated panoramic roof also has a sun shade made of perforated fabric that islocated below the sections of glass. Thisshade can be opened or closed, for examplewhen driving in bright sunlight.
Both the laminated panoramic roof and the sun shade are operated by the controls in theceiling console, near the rear-view mirror. Thevehicle's ignition must be in mode I or II
before the laminated panoramic roof/sunshade can be operated.
CAUTION
• Remove ice and snow before opening the laminated panoramic roof.
• Do not operate the laminated panor-amic roof if it is frozen closed.
• Never place heavy objects on the lami-nated panoramic roof.

• Never open or close the laminatedpanoramic roof if it is obstructed inany way.
• Never allow a child to operate thelaminated panoramic roof.
• Never leave a child alone in a vehicle.
• When leaving the vehicle, ensure thatthe ignition is in mode
0 (see page 88
for information about the various igni-tion modes) to disable the laminatedpanoramic roof. Never leave theremote key/PCC* in the vehicle.
• Never extend any object or body partthough the open laminated panoramicroof, even if the vehicle's ignition iscompletely switched off.
Automatic operation1. To open the sun shade completely, pull
the control as far back as possible (to the auto open position) and release it.
2. To fully open the laminated panoramic roof, pull the control as far back as possi-ble a second time (to the auto open posi-
tion) and release it.
