30Operating safety
Introduction

When closing make sure that no parts of the
body are in the closing area. If somebody
becomes trapped, release the switch or press
the switch to open the side window again.
GWARNING
If children operate the side windows they
could become trapped, particularly if they are left unsupervised. There is a risk of injury.
Activate the override feature for the rear side
windows. When leaving the vehicle, always
take the SmartKey with you and lock the vehi-
cle. Never leave children unsupervised in the
vehicle.
Side window reversing feature
The side windows are equipped with an auto-
matic reversing feature. If a solid object blocks
or restricts a side window from traveling
upwards during the automatic closing process,
the side window opens again automatically. Dur-
ing the manual closing process, the side windowonly opens again automatically after the corre-
sponding switch is released.
The automatic reversing feature is only an aid
and does not relieve you of the responsibility of
paying attention when closing a side window.
GWARNING
The reversing feature does not react:
Rto soft, light and thin objects, e.g. small fin-
gers
Rwhile resetting
This means that the reversing feature cannot
prevent someone being trapped in these sit-
uations. There is a risk of injury.
Make sure that no body parts are in close
proximity during the closing procedure. If
someone becomes trapped, press the switch
to open the side window again.
Opening and closing the side win-
dows
The switches for all side windows are located on
the driver's door. There is also a switch on each
door for the corresponding side window.
The switches on the driver's door take prece-
dence.

stop automatic operation by pressing/pulling
the switch again.
You can continue to operate the side windows
after you switch off the engine or remove the
SmartKey. This function remains active for five
minutes or until you open a front door.

dows is activated (

after the button is released, then it has been
set correctly. If this is not the case, repeat the
steps above.
Problems with the side windows
GWARNING
If you close a side window again immediately after it has been blocked or reset, the side window
closes with increased or maximum force. The reversing feature is then not active. Parts of the
body could be trapped in the closing area in the process. This poses an increased risk of injury or
even fatal injury.
Make sure that no parts of the body are in the closing area. To stop the closing process, release
the switch or push the switch again to reopen the side window.

vehicle electronics can be damaged if water
enters the vehicle interior. Only clean the slid-
ing sunroof when it is closed.
Resonance noises can occur in addition to the
usual airflow noises when the sliding sunroof is
open. They are caused by minor pressure fluc-
tuations in the vehicle interior. Change the posi-
tion of the sliding sunroof or open a side window
slightly to reduce or eliminate these noises.
Sliding sunroof reversing feature
The sliding sunroof is equipped with an auto-
matic reversing feature. If a solid object blocks
or restricts the sliding sunroof during the closing
process, the sliding sunroof opens again auto-
matically. The automatic reversing feature is
only an aid and is no substitute for your attention when closing the sliding roof.
GWARNING
The reversing feature does not react:
Rto soft, light and thin objects, e.g. small fin-
gers
Rover the last 1/6 in (4 mm) of the closing
movement
Rduring resetting
Rwhen closing the sliding sunroof again man- ually immediately after automatic reversing
This means that the reversing feature cannot
prevent someone being trapped in these sit-
uations. There is a risk of injury.
Make sure that no body parts are in close
proximity during the closing procedure.
If somebody becomes trapped:
Rrelease the switch immediately, or
Rpress the switch in any direction during the
automatic closing process
The closing process is stopped.

Opening and closing
:To raise
;To open
=To close/lower

ignition lock.
XPress or pull the 3switch in the corre-
sponding direction.
If you press or pull the 3switch beyond the
point of resistance, automatic operation is star-
ted in the corresponding direction. You can stop
automatic operation by pressing or pulling
again.
If the sliding sunroof is raised at the rear, it low-
ers slightly automatically at higher speeds. The
noise level in the vehicle interior is reduced as a
result.
At low speeds it raises again automatically.
You can also temporarily deactivate automatic
lowering. To do so, press the 3switch. The
sliding sunroof raises again automatically.
You can continue to operate the sliding sunroof
after switching off the engine or removing the
SmartKey from the ignition lock. This function
remains active for five minutes or until you open a front door.
The sliding sunroof cannot be opened if a roof
carrier is installed. In order to allow ventilation
of the vehicle interior, you can raise the sliding
sunroof.
If contact is made with a roof carrier approved
by Mercedes-Benz, the sliding sunroof lowers
slightly but remains raised at the rear.
Before opening, raising or closing the sliding
sunroof, a check is carried out to see whether a
valid SmartKey is in the vehicle, if:
