lighting (the display may flicker) R
if there is a sudden change in temperature,
e.g. when driving into a heated garage in
winter
R if the camera lens is dirty or obstructed
R if the rear of your vehicle is damaged. In
this event, have the camera position and
setting checked at a qualified specialist

buttons on the rear-view mirror at a
distance of 2 to 12 inches (5 to 30 cm).
i The distance between garage door
remote control 0083and the integrated
garage door opener depends on the system
of the garage door drive. Several attempts
might be necessary. You should test every
position for at least 20 seconds before
trying another position.

indicator lamp 0043flashes rapidly.
X Release transmitter buttons 0044,0087or0085
on the integrated remote control and

If indicator lamp 0043goes out after
approximately 20 seconds and has not

X Repeat the procedure for the other
transmitter buttons. When doing so, vary
the distance between the garage door's
remote control and the transmitter buttons
in the rear-view mirror.
i If the garage door system works with a
rolling code, you must synchronize the
remote control integrated in the rear-view
mirror with the garage door system
receiver after programming.
You will find further information in the
garage door opening system's operating
instructions, e.g. the sections on
"Synchronizing the transmitter" or
