should test every position for at least
25 seconds before trying another position.
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 a further 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.

WARNING
Certain components in the engine compart-
ment, such as the engine, radiator and parts
of the exhaust system, can become very hot.
Working in the engine compartment poses a
risk of injury.
Where possible, let the engine cool down and touch only the components described in the
following. G
WARNING
Opening the hood when the engine is over-
heated or when there is a fire in the engine
compartment could expose you to hot gases
or other service products. There is a risk of
injury.
Let an overheated engine cool down before
opening the hood. If there is a fire in the
engine compartment, keep the hood closed
and contact the fire department. G
WARNING
The cooling system is pressurized, particularly when the motor is warm. If you open the cap, you could be scalded if hot coolant sprays out.
There is a risk of injury.
Let the engine cool down before you open the
cap. Wear protective gloves and protective
eyewear when opening. Open the cap slowly
to release pressure.
! Before starting your journey, make sure that
all engine covers are installed. Otherwise, the engine can be damaged, e.g. through over-
heating. Example
X Park the vehicle on a level surface.
Only check the coolant level when the vehicle
is on a level surface and the engine has cooled
down.
X Select key position 0048with the Start/Stop
button.
X Check the coolant temperature display in the
instrument cluster.
The coolant temperature must be below
158 ‡ (70 †).
X Select key position 0092with the Start/Stop
button.
X Remove engine cover 0043upwards on both
sides.
X Slowly turn cap 0044half a turn counter-clock-
wise to allow excess pressure to escape.
X Turn cap 0044further counter-clockwise and
remove it.
If the coolant is at the level of the marker bar in the filler neck when cold, there is enough
coolant in coolant expansion tank 0087.
If the coolant level is approximately 0.6 in
(1.5 cm) above the marker bar in the filler
neck when warm, there is enough coolant in
coolant expansion tank 0087.
X If necessary, add coolant that has been tested
and approved by Mercedes-Benz. Engine compartment

drive for a few minutes after cleaning. By
heating up the brakes, the brake discs and
pads dry. The vehicle can then be parked for a
long period of time.
Regular care of your vehicle is a condition for
retaining the quality in the long term.
Use care products and cleaning agents recom-
mended and approved by Mercedes-Benz. Washing the vehicle and cleaning the
paintwork
Automatic car wash G
WARNING
Braking efficiency is reduced after washing
the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
After the vehicle has been washed, brake
carefully while paying attention to the traffic
conditions until full braking power is restored.
! When Active Brake Assist, Active Distance
Assist DISTRONIC or the HOLD function is
activated, the vehicle brakes automatically in
certain situations.
To avoid damage to the vehicle, deactivate
these systems in the following or similar sit-
uations:
R when towing the vehicle
R in the car wash
! Preferably use automatic car washes with
adjustable high-pressure pre-cleaning. This
corresponds with the specification for the
Cabriolet program. In car washes that use
high water pressures, there is a risk that a
small amount of water may leak into the vehi- cle.
! Make sure that the vehicle is not subse-
quently treated with hot wax.
! Never clean your vehicle in a Touchless
Automatic Car Wash as these use special
cleaning agents. These cleaning agents can
damage the paintwork or plastic parts.
If you have your vehicle cleaned in a high-
pressure automatic car wash, small amounts of water may enter the vehicle. !
If the SmartKey is within the rear detection
range of KEYLESS-GO, the following situa-
tions, for example, could lead to the uninten-
tional opening of the trunk lid:
R when using an automatic car wash
R when using a power washer
Make sure that the SmartKey is at least 10 ft
(3 m) away from the vehicle.
! Make sure that:
R the side windows are fully closed
R the blower of the ventilation/heating sys-
tem is switched off
R the windshield wiper switch is at position
003F
R the rear-view camera is deactivated
The vehicle may otherwise be damaged.
! When washing your vehicle in a tow-through
car wash, use the SmartKey instead of the
Start/Stop button.
Start the engine using the SmartKey. Set the
transmission to 005Cwith the E-SELECT selec-
tor lever. Switch the engine off again with the SmartKey by turning the SmartKey to position
0048. Make sure that you then leave the Smart-
Key in position 0048. You may otherwise dam-
age the vehicle, the transmission or the car
wash.
Check the transmission position in the instru-
ment cluster.
! Before switching off the engine, use the
E‑SELECT lever to shift the transmission to
005C. If you open the driver's or front-passenger
door, the transmission remains in this posi-
tion for up to 30 minutes if the key is in the
ignition, even if the engine is switched off. If
you do not shift the transmission to 005Cusing
the E‑SELECT lever beforehand, it shifts auto-
matically to parking position 005Dand locks the
wheels if the driver's or front-passenger door
is opened when the engine is switched off.
This may damage the vehicle, the transmis-
sion or the car wash.
You can wash the vehicle in an automatic car
wash from the very start.
If the vehicle is very dirty, pre-wash it before
cleaning it in an automatic car wash.
After using an automatic car wash, wipe off wax from the windshield and the wiper blades. This
will prevent smears and reduce wiping noises
caused by residue on the windshield. 242

pressure may briefly rise to approximately
500 kPa (5 bar/73 psi).
Do not switch off the tire inflation com-
pressor during this phase.
X Let the tire inflation compressor run for a
maximum of ten minutes. The tire should then have attained a pressure of at least 180 kPa
(1.8 bar/26 psi).
If a pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 ba r/26 psi) has
been at tained after five minutes, see "Tire pres-
sure reached" (Y page 253).
If a tire pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi) has not been attained after five minutes, see "Tire
pressure not reached" (Y page 253).
If tire sealant has escaped, clean it off affected
areas as quickly as possible. It is preferable to
use clean water.
If your clothes are soiled with tire sealant, have them cleaned with perchloroethylene at a dry
cleaner as soon as possible. 252
