Malfunction
Local radio waves can in terfere with the func-
tion of Comfort Access, for example when a
mobile phone is in the immediate vicinity of the
remote control or by when a mobile phone is
being charged in the vehicle.
If this happens, open or close the vehicle via the
buttons on the remote co ntrol or using the inte-
grated key. To start the engine afterward, insert
the remote control into the ignition lock.
Warning lamps
The warning lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up when you attempt to
start the engine: the engine cannot
be started. The remote co ntrol is not inside the
vehicle or is malfunctioning. Take the remote contro
l with you inside the
vehicle or have it checked. If necessary, insert
another remote control in to the ignition lock.
The warning lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up wh ile the engine is
running: the remote control is no
longer inside the vehicle. After the engine is
switched off, the engine can only be restarted
within approx. 10 seconds.

Adjustments
Controls
Even if you have not yet fastened your safety
belt, the belt hand-over will retract if you:
>
Wait for more than approx. one minute
> Open the corresponding door
> Start driving.
Closing the respective do or reactivates the belt
hand-over if the ignition or radio readiness is on.
Front passenger seat
The belt hand-over will exte nd only if the seat is
occupied and after the front passenger door is
closed.
Pinch protection system
If the belt hand-over en counters resistance on
moving in or out, it moves back slightly in the
opposite direction and stops in this position. To
reactivate the belt hand -over: open and close
the door or switch the ignition off and on.
Although there is a pinch protection sys-
tem, always check that the maneuvering
area of the belt hand-ove r is clear. Otherwise it
cannot be ensured that the system will stop
moving in certain extreme situations. <
Mirrors
Exterior mirrors
The front passenger's mirror is more con-
vex than the driver's mirror. The objects
seen in the mirror are closer than they appear.
Do not gauge your distan ce from traffic behind you on the basis of what you see in the mirror;
otherwise, there is an increased risk of an
accident.

The setting for the exterior mirrors is stored for
the remote control currently in use. The stored
position is called up automatically when the

The mirrors can also be adjusted manually:
press the edge of the glass.
Folding mirrors in and out
By pressing button 3, you can fold the mirrors in
and out at driving speeds up to approx. 12 mph

streets, for example, or for moving mirrors that
were folded in by hand back out into their cor-
rect positions. Mirrors th at have been folded in
will fold out automatically at a speed of approx.
25 mph or 40 km/h.
Before entering an automatic car wash,
fold in the exterior mirrors manually or
with button 3 to prevent them from being dam-
aged, depending on the width of the vehicle. <

Depending on the outside temperature, both
exterior mirrors are heated automatically when

selector lever to positi on P and forcefully apply
the parking brake to prevent the car from
moving. <
Avoid frequent starting in quick succes-
sion as well as repeat ed start attempts in
which the engine does not start. Otherwise, the
fuel is not burned or incompletely burned and
there is a danger of overheating and damaging
the catalytic converter. <
Do not wait for the engine to warm up while the
