so, vary the distance between remote control 0083 and the rear-view mirror.
The required distance between remote con-
trol 0083and the integrated garage door opener
depends on the garage door drive system.
Several attempts might be necessary. 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 226).
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 programming button on the door
drive control panel. The programming button
may be located in different places 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 "Program-
ming additional remote controls", before carry-
ing out the following steps.
Your vehicle must be within reach 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.

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
detected during programming. Comparable with Canadian law, some U.S. garage door openers
also feature a "break".

Problems when programming If you are experiencing problems programming
the integrated garage door opener on the rear-
view mirror, take note of the following instruc-
tions:
R Check the transmitter frequency used by
garage door drive remote control 0083and
whether it is supported. The transmitter fre-
quency can usually be found on the back of
remote control 0083for the garage door drive.
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 likelihood that
garage door remote control 0083will transmit a
strong and precise signal to the integrated
garage door opener.
R When programming, hold remote control 0083
at varying distances and angles from but-
tons 0044to0085 which you are programming. Try
various angles at a distance between 2and
8 inches (5to 20 cm) or at the same angle but at varying distances.
R If another remote control 0083is available for
the same garage door drive, repeat the same
programming steps with this remote control
0083. 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 transmit
for a limited amount of time (the indicator
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 programmed, the integrated
garage door opener performs the function of the

Tire pressure reached
G
WARNING
A tire temporarily sealed with tire sealant
impairs the driving characteristics and is not
suitable for higher speeds. There is a risk of
accident.
You should therefore adapt your driving style
accordingly and drive carefully. Do not exceed the specified maximum speed with a tire that
has been repaired using tire sealant.
The maximum permissible speed for a tire
sealed with tire sealant is 50 mph (80 km/h).
The upper part of the TIREFIT sticker must be
affixed to the instrument cluster in the driver's
field of vision.
If a tire pressure of 200 kPa (2.0 bar/29 psi) has been attained after ten minutes:
X Switch off the tire inflation compressor.
X Unscrew the filler hose from the valve of the
faulty tire.
Note that tire sealant may escape when you
unscrew the filler hose.
X Stow the tire sealant bottle and the tire infla-
tion compressor.
X Pull away immediately.
X Stop after driving for approximately ten
minutes and check the tire pressure with the
tire inflation compressor.
The tire pressure must now be at least
130 kPa (1.3 bar/19 psi). G
WARNING
If the required tire pressure is not reached
after driving for a short period, the tire is too
badly damaged. The tire sealant cannot repair the tire in this instance. Damaged tires and a
tire pressure that is too low can significantly
impair the vehicle's braking and driving char-
acteristics. There is a risk of accident.
Do not continue driving. Contact a qualified
specialist workshop.
i In cases such as the one mentioned above,
contact an authorized Mercedes-Benz Cen-
ter. Or call 1-800-FOR-MERCedes (in the
USA) or 1-800-387-0100 (in Canada). X
Correct the tire pressure if it is still at least
130 kPa (1.3 bar/19 psi). See the Tire and
Loading Information placard on the driver's
side B-pillar or the tire pressure table in the
charge socket flap for values.
X To increase the tire pressure: switch on the
tire inflation compressor. X
To reduce the tire pressure: depress pres-
sure release button 0043next to pressure
gauge 0044.
X When the tire pressure is correct, unscrew the
filler hose from the valve of the sealed tire.
Note that tire sealant may escape when you
unscrew the filler hose.
X Screw the valve cap onto the tire valve of the
sealed tire. X
