Top View
The concept
Top View assists you in parking and maneuver‐
ing. The area around the doors and the road area
around the vehicle are shown on the Control
Display for this purpose.
Capturing the image
The image is captured by two cameras
integrated in the exterior mirrors and by the
backup camera.
The range equals:▷Approx. 7 ft/2 m to the side.▷approx. 7 ft/2 m to the rear.
In this way, obstacles up to the height of the ex‐
terior mirrors are detected early.
System limits
Top View cannot be used in the following situa‐
tions:
▷With a door open.▷With the trunk lid open.▷With an exterior mirror folded in.▷In poor light.
A Check Control message is displayed in some
of these situations.
Check the traffic situation as well
Check the traffic situation around the ve‐
hicle with your own eyes. Otherwise, an accident
could result from road users or objects located
outside the picture area of the cameras.◀
Switching on automatically
Select transmission position R with the engine

Interior equipmentIntegrated universal remote
control
The concept
This system can replace up to three different
hand-held transmitters for various types of re‐
mote-controlled equipment, such as garage
doors or lighting systems.
The hand-held transmitter signal can be pro‐
grammed on one of the three memory buttons.
The corresponding device can then be operated
using the programmed memory button.
The LED indicates that a signal is being trans‐
mitted.
When selling the vehicle, delete the stored pro‐
grams for security reasons.
During programming
During programming and before activat‐
ing a device using the integrated universal re‐
mote control, ensure that there are no people,
animals, or objects in the range of movement of
the remote-controlled device; otherwise, there
is a risk of injury or damage.
Also follow the safety instructions of the hand-
held transmitter.◀
Compatibility If this symbol is printed on the packaging
or in the instructions of the hand-held
transmitter, the remote-controlled de‐
vice is generally compatible with the integrated
universal remote control.

Malfunction
If the device cannot be used after repeated at‐
tempts at programming, please check whether
the hand-held transmitter is equipped with an
alternating code system.
To do so:
▷Read the instructions of the hand-held
transmitter.▷Hold down the memory button of the
integrated universal remote control longer.
If the LED of the integrated universal remote
control flashes rapidly for a brief period and then
lights up continuously, the hand-held transmit‐
ter is equipped with an alternating code system.
In this case, program the memory buttons as
described under Alternating-code hand-held
transmitters.
Alternating-code hand-held
transmitters
Please obtain information on synchronizing the
device in the operating manual of the device be‐
ing set up.
Programming will be easier with the aid of a sec‐
ond person.
1.Park the vehicle within range of the remote-
controlled device.2.Program the integrated universal remote
control as described above under Fixed-
code hand-held transmitters.3.Locate the button on the receiver of the de‐
vice to be set, e.g., on the drive.4.Press the button on the receiver of the de‐
vice to be set. You have approx. 30 seconds
for the next step.5.Hold down the programmed memory button
