tions of remote-controlled systems, such as
garage door drives, barriers, or lighting sys#j
tems.
General
information
The integrated Universal Remote Control re#j
places up to 3 different hand-held transmitters. To operate the remote control, the buttons onthe interior mirror must be programmed withthe desired functions. The hand-held transmit#jter for the particular system is required in orderto program the remote control.
Before selling the vehicle, delete the stored
functions for the sake of security.
Safety
information WARNING
Body parts can be jammed when operat#j
ing remote-controlled systems, for instance
the garage door, using the integrated Universal Remote Control. There is a risk of injury or risk
of damage to property. Make sure that the areaof movement of the respective system is clear
during programming and operation. Also follow
the safety instructions of the hand-held trans#j
mitter.'

proximately 10 seconds until the LED
flashes green rapidly. This erases all pro#j gramming of the buttons on the interiormirror.3.Press the interior mirror button to be pro#jgrammed. The LED flashes orange.4.Hold the hand-held transmitter for the sys#jtem to be controlled approx. 1 to 3 in/2.5 to
8 cm away from the buttons of the interior
mirror. The required distance depends on the hand-held transmitter.5.Press and hold the button of the desired
function on the hand-held transmitter. The
LED on the interior mirror will begin flash#j
ing orange slowly.6.As soon as the LED flashes green more
rapidly or lights up continuously, release
the button. Green light indicates that the button on the interior mirror has been pro#jgrammed. Faster green flashing indicates
that it is a rolling code wireless system.
If the LED does not flash faster after at
least 60 seconds, change the distance be#j
tween the interior mirror and the hand-held transmitter and repeat the step. Several
more attempts at different distances may
be necessary. Wait at least 15 seconds be#j
tween attempts.

system
If you are unable to operate the system after
repeated programming, please check if the
system to be controlled features a rolling code radio system.
Read the system's owner's manual, or press the programmed button on the interior mirror longer. If the LED on the interior mirror starts
flashing rapidly and then stays lit constantly for
2 seconds, the system features a rolling code
radio system. Flashing and continuous illumi#j

20 seconds.
For systems with a rolling code radio system,
the integrated Universal Remote Control and the system also have to be synchronized.
Please read the owner's manual to find out
how to synchronize the system.
Synchronizing is easier with the aid of a sec#j
ond person.
Synchronizing the universal remote control with the system:1.Park the vehicle within range of the re#jmote-controlled system.2.Program the relevant button on the interior
mirror as described.3.Locate and press the synchronizing button
on the system being programmed. You
have approx. 30 seconds for the next step.4.Hold down the programmed button on the
interior mirror for approximately 3 seconds
and then release it. If necessary, repeat this step up to three times in order to finish
synchronization. Once synchronization is
complete, the programmed function will be carried out.
