G) Tips
If your vehicle is left standing for a long peri-
od of time, note the following:
—To prevent the vehicle battery from dis-
charging, the energy management gradual-
ly switches off convenience functions that

With the garage door opener, you can activate
systems such as the garage doors, security sys-
tems or house lights from inside your vehicle. Up
to three remote control functions can be pro-
grammed to the three buttons that are integrat-
ed in the control unit above the rearview mirror.
To be able to operate systems using the garage
door opener, the buttons in the control unit must
first be programmed.
Z\ WARNING
When operating or programming the garage
door opener, make sure that no people or ob-
jects are in the area immediately surrounding
the equipment. People can be injured or prop-
erty can be damaged if struck when closing.
@® Tips
— For security reasons, we recommend that
you clear the programmed buttons before
selling the vehicle.

Programming the transmitter
Applies to: vehicles with garage door opener
B4S-0073
Fig. 27 Distance between the radiator grille and the re-
mote control transmitter
Programming the button: step 1 on the
control panel
1. Switch the ignition on.
2. Press both of the outside buttons on the con-
trol unit > page 30, fig. 26 until the yellow
LED @) turns off and the green LED @ turns
on. This procedure clears the standard codes
that were set at the factory and does not
need to be repeated again to program the
other buttons.
3. Briefly press the button in the control panel
that you want to program.
4. Wait until the yellow LED @) blinks. The pro-
gramming mode is active for five minutes.
5. Go in front of the vehicle with the original re-
mote control transmitter for the system that
you are programming to the control panel
button.
Programming the button: step 2 at the
radiator grille
6. Hold the remote control transmitter at the
vehicle radiator grille > fig. 27.
7. Now press the remote control transmitter
until the turn signals on your vehicle blink.
This can take up to 30 seconds.
8. Ifthe emergency flashers blink three times,
the programming was successful. If the
emergency flashers only blink one time, the
five-minute time limit for programming has
expired or the programming was unsuccess-
ful. Repeat the programming procedure
starting from the third step or change the
distance to the radiator grille.

9. Ifthe garage door or other systems do not
open with the HomeLink buttons even if the
programming was successful, the system
may use a rolling code instead of a fixed
code. You must also then perform rolling
code programming > page 31.
The other two buttons in the control panel can be
programmed using the instructions given above.
Start with step 3.
Deleting button programming
The programmed buttons cannot be deleted indi-
vidually. They must be deleted all at once. Repro-
gram the buttons if necessary.
> Switch the ignition on.
> Press both of the outside buttons on the con-
trol unit until the yellow LED @ turns off and
the green LED (@) turns on.
Reprogramming buttons
> Switch the ignition on.
> To reprogram an individual button, press the
desired button until the green LED @ turns off
and the yellow LED (2) starts to turn on (after
approximately 10 seconds). Release the button
immediately. The programming mode is active
for 5 minutes and is indicated by a blinking yel-
low light.
> Continue with step 5.
G) Tips
— The distance needed between the remote
control transmitter and the garage door
opener module in the radiator grille
=> fig. 27 depends on the system you are
programming.
— Depending on the system model, you may
need to release the button on the remote
control transmitter while it is programming
and press it again. Hold every position you
try when programming for at least 15 sec-
onds before trying a new position. Keep an
eye on the vehicle turn signals while doing
this.
Rolling code programming
Applies to: vehicles with garage door opener
On some systems, programming a rolling code is
also necessary.
Identifying a rolling code
After programming a rolling code successfully (in
front of the vehicle), the yellow LED stays on
when returning to the vehicle. It turns off the
next time the button is pressed. It will then blink
green and the garage door opener will send the
required signal. The garage door opener will also
send the signal and the LED will blink green
whenever the button is pressed after that.
> Program the rolling code as follows:
Activating the system motor unit
> Locate the programming button on the system
motor unit. The exact location and color of the
button may vary depending on the brand.
> Press the programming button on the system
motor unit (usually this will activate a “display”
on the motor unit). You now have approximate-
ly 30 seconds to program the button in the
control panel.
Programming the button in the control
panel
> Press and hold the previously programmed but-
ton in the control panel for two seconds.
> To complete rolling code programming, press
and hold the button again for two seconds.
> On some systems, the button might need to be
pressed a third time to end the programming
procedure.
After programming, the system should recognize
the signal and operate when the button in the
control panel is pressed. Now you may program
the other buttons as needed.
@) Tips
— The rolling code can be programmed more
quickly and more easily with the help of a
second person.
— If any difficulties occur when programming
the rolling code, it may be helpful to read
the system operating manual.

Power top
Power top
Automatic power top
ere eleurl lela)
Applies to: vehicles with power top
The power top opens and closes automatically.
When open, the power top is stored completely
in the power top compartment. The power top
can be opened or closed at speeds up to 30 mph
(50 km/h). The power top will not open when the
temperature is below 5 °F (-15 °C).
Under normal conditions, the power top is wind-
and waterproof. In rare cases, small droplets of
water may form under extreme weather condi-
tions such as torrential or prolonged rain. That is
normal and no cause for concern.
Follow the care instructions to keep the power
top free of leaks and to maintain its appearance
= page 265, Care and cleaning. Also observe the
following:
— Open and stow the power top only when it is
clean and dry. Stowing the power top when it is
damp can create imprints in it, and if it is left
that way for long periods of time, mildew and
other damage can form. To prevent scratching
or damaging the power top, do not use any
sharp-edged objects to remove ice and snow.
The rear window may be cleared with a stand-
ard ice scraper.
— Do not leave the power top open for several
weeks or the creases in it may become discol-
ored.
— Do not open the power top when the tempera-
ture is below 32 °F (0 °C). The fabric in the
power top loses elasticity in sub-zero tempera-
tures.

ZA\ WARNING
— When operating the power top, make sure
the function is not affected by wind or other
factors and that it does not interfere with
other drivers.
— Never drive when the power top is not
locked correctly. The wind from driving
could cause the power top to open. This can
result in injuries and damage to the vehicle. |P>

Z\ WARNING
— Automatic headlights* are only intended to
assist the driver. They do not relieve the
driver of responsibility to check the head-
lights and to turn them on manually based
on the current light and visibility conditions.
For example, fog cannot be detected by the
light sensors. So always switch on the low
beams under these weather conditions and
when driving in the dark 2D.
—To reduce glare for traffic behind your vehi-
cle, the rear fog lights* should only be
turned on in accordance with the legal regu-
lations in the country where you are operat-
ing the vehicle.
— If the battery has been discharging for a
while, the parking light may switch off auto-
matically. Always make sure your vehicle is
parked and adequately illuminated accord-
ing to the legal regulations in the country
where you are operating the vehicle. Avoid
using the parking lights for several hours.
— Observe the legal regulations in the country
where you are operating the vehicle when
using the lighting system that is described.
G) Tips
— The light sensor for the automatic head-
lights* is in the rearview mirror mount. Do >
